60 FAR as the "clothes" program
" is concerned, exciting moments
are ahead for teen-aged school girls
and their collegiate sisters The new
styles fascinate with their refresh
ing originality, their bright and
lovely colors and their altogether
different outlook from that of past
seasons.
There's just one thrill after an
other in promise for those assem-
bling back-to-school wardrobes, one
of the tthrillingest' of which is the
acceptance of cotton as smart and
wearable for fall and winter. 1t
took wartime scarcity of other fibers
to break down the tradition that
cotton is just for warm-Weather
wear or for the workaday house
dress and such. Actually cottons
can be warm as we'll as cool.
Now that fashion has grown keen
ly cotton conscious, new uses of it
are being played up which hold
promise of surprises and exciting in
terest for everybody. A new order
of experience is awaiting school far
ing youngsters in that they are going
to have the fun of selecting a COM
plete wardrobe expressed in terms
of cotton from start to finish. The
new fall cottons are of such tremen-
dous scope they take in every phase
of school fashion as seen in coats,
suits, dresses, accessories and lin
gerie. The cotton fabric list includes
corduroys, velveteens, tWills, whip
cords, black poplins, ginghams,
homespuns and challis.
Not only are the new fall and win
ter cotton weaves breathtaking in
their colors Especially the new vel
veteens and corduroys), but the new
style developments are so outstand-
ingly different in technique there
isn't going to be dull moment in
the entire procedure of getting a
smart and practical back-to-school
wardrobe together
Each of the fashions pictured in
the above illustration serves as a
prophecy of what is to be in the way
of smart fall trends. Considering
these styles from the viewpoint of
the wearers themselves young Miss

still seem to lack
something vital?
A dinner, lunch or breakfast that
lacks a sense of completeness is
like a ham sandwich without mus
tard, meat without seasoning, fish
without tart sauce, pie without
flaky crust. The small things that
do big things for menus are the rel
ishes, pickles, jams and jellies,
which brings me to today's topic.
Relishes such as pickles, jellies,
conserves and preserves can supply
that sense of completeness to meal
if you use them with a thought to
flavor affinity.
For chicken try strawberry or
plum jam. Goose calls for spiced
peach jam or apple jelly. Orange
and cherry jam or relish are tops
with bland duck. Spiced grape jam
or gooseberry jams are "musts"
with beef just as mint or crabapple
jelly are musts with lamb. Pair off
that golden brown ham with plum
jelly or horseradish mixed with
grape jelly. Veal needs currant or
blackberry jam.
If you can't get ounce jelly, try
cranberry jelly with pork. Liver will
be extra good with tomato relish.

sandwiches you are going to serve
