To win reputation as a good
hostess means more than serving
appetizing food and variety of
drinks, having the latest dance
records and (Wonder of wonders)
a partner for every woman.
1t also means making everyone
feel that entertaining them is fun
and that you are having as good
a time as they are, rather than
giving the impression that it has
been a terrific ordeal to plan and
you are absolutely worn out with
last-minute preparations.
So, whenever you intendt to have
a few friends in, take tip from
one of society's most charming
hostesses, Mrs. Donald B. Tansill,
and make a habit of completely
relaxing for Is minutes, at least,
before the first guest arrives.
Whether she is to nc the nov
city dances and contests at the
popular service mems TWo-f r.
One Canteen during luncheon, or
entertain that evening at h m e,
Mrs. Tansill finds that relaxing
first for a quarter hour in dark
ened room gives her just that ex.
ira bit of pep which puts the party
over.

WASHINGTON, June l. - Inc
new WPB women's and children
clothing order revision does not
attempt to dictate styles to de-
signers, but is rather a conser-
walton measure which is aimed to
produce more clothes out OF a
limited yardage on hand. Changes
are not so radical that style OF
existing wardrobes will be affect
ed for seasons to come. Simplicity
is always modish, WPB experts
believe.
STREAMLINED FURNITURE
Watch for more and more
streamlined furniture, once WPB
and manufacturers decide on con-
servation details. Now on the fire
are simplification of juvenile fur
niture, case goods, office desks
and chairs, upholstered suites and
kitchen cabinets. There'n be an
increase in production in moder-
atelv priced furniture ear-marked
for defense areas.

Next Winters
Food Problem
May Be Eased

t'You can solve some of next
winters food problem if you pre-
serve vegetables and fruits now,
said Mrs. Cordelia B. Foster, home
service director for the Tide Water
Power company at the Health for
Victory club meetings held here
recently.
Mrs. Foster will have charge OF
the meeting Wednesday, June 2,
at 2 o'clock when the Wilmington
Health for Victory club meets al
the Tide Water home service kitch-
eli. Mrs. Foster will also be pres
ent for the meeting, June 3, at
. o'clock to be held at the Green
field community house.
Two methods Of preserving foods
-dehydration and brining-were
explained and demonstrated and
the June Health for Victory meal
planning guides containing STEP
by-step instructions were distrib-
uted to the homemakers.
The members were told that the
vegetables best suited for dehy-
dration are corn. beans, peas. car
rots and okra. The best fruits are
apples, pears, peaches and april
cots. Strawberries do not dry well
but dewberries, blackberries,
gooseberries and raspberries are
excellent for drying.
Not only is it important to Sc
lect the right foods for drying,
but it also is essential to use the
proper methods of dehydration,
Mrs. Foster said. The six steps
are % use tree-ripened fruit free
from blemishes, and table fresh
vegetables that are tender, crisp
and thoroughly clean. (2) Dry i'm
mediately, that is, be prepared to
start the dehydrating process as
soon as the fruits and vegetables
have been gathered. 60 Blanch
vegetables and dip or sulphur fruits
before dehydrating them. ~ Make
sure there is an even flow of all
circulating through the evaporation
or oven and around and over the
fruit or vegetable being dehydrat
ed. 90 Provide sufficient heat te
dry the fruit or vegetables a.
quickly as possible, without scorch
ing the food. (6) Store the dehy
drafted foods properly in cool
dry, dark place.

In Boston she was a member Of
the board of local hospital for
several years and she also has
had training as a social service
worker.
Her work as a Gray Lady has
opened up an entire new field of
interest for Mrs. Freer. Recently
she has been doing some writing,
not because she has any thought
of becoming a professional writer,
but because she wants to get
over to other women some of
the ideas to which she has been
giving considerable thought.
For instance, she would like to
see plan worked out by which
small hospitals, like the new
hospital soon to be built in
Bethesda, could have the CO.
operation of the Gray Ladies or
perhaps some new organization
similar to the Gray Ladies.
Another subject to which she
has given much thought is the
question of household help in a
postwar world, and she has
already contributed we'll
thought-out statement on this
subject to a publication issued
by the Victory Council of George
Washington University. Mrs.
Freer believes the time will come
when maids will be known as
household workers and will be

she says, II would still feel the
same way about = coming -out
party. Besides, the money I
would spend on 4 party, trans
lated into terms Of merchandise,
would buy equipment for a day
nursery for working mothers, or
supplies for "a lay health clinic.
And I guess the postwar world
will need suc.n things more than
1t will need .debutantes."
Since she has been with the
JANGOS, Jocelyn's ideas about
college have changed, too.
She wants to go somewhere
for two years to get a cultural
background and to finish up in a
technical school for aviation
training, or maybe a school for
social service workers. Her work
on airplane models has shown
her that she has a skill In the
use Of precision instruments that
she did not know she possessed
and 1t may lead her into some
scientific field Of study.
Working separately, Mrs. Freer
and her daughter are distinctly
individualistic, each one carrying
out her ideas in her own way,
Working together, they make a
fine Observation-Disclosures team.
