fabric into both rooms. Use the
fabric on the seats Of the dining
chairs. Then when they are moved
into the living room for extra guests
they will look as though they be-
longed.
Pick out one Of the deep colors
in your fabric for your rugs and
avoid definite design. A salt-and-
pepper type Of mixture will work
in well, or the pile Of two tones
OF the same color, as this will take
on uniform monotone when In
place.
With this plan you will have
plain, light-colored walls, plain deep
colored floors and your furniture
and windows will carry the pattern
about the room. With this much
design you seldom need wall dec
grafton, such as pictures, hangings
and similar accent. Bright-colored
pots may hold growing vines. A
tall vase, in one Of the accent colors,
may hold simple flower arrange
ment to ornament a blank wall
space. Strive to keep plain areas,
as they are restful to the eye and
help to avoid that "busy" look which
gets so tiresome.
Consider fabric with q beige
ground, deep green and brown
foliage and nasturtium colors run
ming rampant. Use this in a room
with beige walls, deep green or
brown rug and accessories in the
copper tones and in brilliant green.
Or try green, yellow and deep blue;
plum, rose and soft green; slate
blue, bright red and beige, or any
other combination Of colors which
plays into your wall color.

Decorate with fabricl It will give
you the most satisfactory results
with the least cost and effort. Select
a bright, gayly patterned material.
Use the one design against plain
walls and a plain rug. BY "spotting"
the fabric on various sides Of the
room, you may add color and pat
tern interest, in the simplest pos
sible way.
Fabrics are difficult to match
these days. For this reason we sug-
gest you settle for one pattern rather
than trying to blend two or three
together. Also, plan to buy all you
need on your first shopping trip, as
lit is hopeless to expect to 60 back
few days later to find more, and
reordering is usually disappointing.
Plan to use your fabric for val
ance and tiebacks at the windows
| If the windows are on two or more
sides of the room. II you have a
bank of windows on one side, only,
they will be able to take the pattern
used for side draperies as well as
valance. Repeat drapery material
| for slip covers and chair seats at
other points in the room. In this
way you will get well-balanced pat
tern and color in lone fell swoop."
You will find that the room looks
finished, well groomed Immediately.
All you will need then are the small
accessories about the room. Select
these in color to pick up the shades
in your fabric for plain-colored high
lights.
This is one Of the simplest ways
to "do" the small apartment ef-
fectively. In these the walls are

thinks that the other has gotten the
better of the matrimonial bargain.
A husband will say to his wife: II
wish I could take it easy like you do
and have nothing to do but stay at
home and look after the children" !"
And the wife thinks that her hus-
band leads the life of Riley and that
he spends his days swapping stories
with other men and going out to
luscious lunches and maybe flirting
with a pretty stenographer.
But if the husband had to spend
even one day sweating over the
cook stove and listening to the baby
howl and settling the children's rows
and answering the million calls for
mother, he would sigh for his
shop again. And If the wife could
see that every dollar her husband
makes is wet with his blood she
would know how hard it comes and
she would be glad she has the
spending instead of the earning to
do.
I think that after the war many
a woman VINO has worked In q de-
fense plant will make a better wife
because she will know from expert
ence what 1t is to come home so
tired that she wants to do nothing
but throw herself on a couch and
have nobody speak to her, and so she
will not badger her husband to take
her out dancing, or complain be-
cause he isn't an interesting CONVEX
sationalist. And I think that many
a man will be better husband be-
cause for the first time he will really
appreciate that it is a wifes work
that holds home together and
makes it comfortable and that with
out her presence in it everything
goes to SKIES and sevens.
Perhaps we would all be kinder to
each other if we had walked a little
in each others shoes.

Dear Miss Dix: I am q widow
and have to play the part Of both
mother and father, and in so doing
I have learned to see the home
from a different perspective. I am
the one who comes home dead tired
at night to find things out of order,
slap-dash meals not to my liking
on the table, the children frowzy
and unkempt and like as not in a
row. Then I ask myself: Is this
the way I treated my husband? Is
this the way kept house? Is this
the kind of food I fed him? And
the answer makes me feel like she'd
ding tears of repentance.
If I were ever to marry again,
would make a better wife for hav-
ing filled the shoes Of a man. My
working experience would be q
great blessing and I wonder if there
are not many other women who
do not have the same feeling.
MRS. J. L.
Answer-The old saying that one
half of the world does not know how
the other half lives is nowhere else
so true as it is in domestic life
There Is no man who would not
make better and more considerate
husband if he could swap places
with his wife, even for a month,
and find out by experience how ex-
hausting and nerve-wearing it is to
cook and wash and patch and mend
and baby-tend for a family. Nor
is there any woman who wouldn' t
make better wife if she could &c
through the trials and tribulations
and anxieties that a breadWinner
does who knows that the very lives
Of his family depend upon his keep
ing his job.
For, curiously enough, husbands
and wives are almost invariably jeal-

The Club de Jeudi (the Thursday
Night Club went really plebian last
Thursday night. For weeks. the
members in planning their weekly
dinners, cooked by the men, acting
as chefs, had secuted out all the
fancy foods they could find within
the ration points. Somehow or
other, they developed craving for
very plain, simple food, and so,
pooling their points, they provided
for the eight of them a 3-pound
piece cut from side of bacon. And
then around that center of attrac-
ton real dinner for men land
women, too was cooked. Here is a
menu worth initiating:
Cocktails made of halt tomato Juice
and halt bottled clam juice,
touched up 1Dith celery salt
Boiled Bacon and Cabbage
Boiled Prdties, alias Murphys, alias
Potatoes
Homemade Fresh Orange Water Ice
Coffee
1t seems that we Americans, de-
scending mainly from sons and
daughters of the soil, get, every so
often, a real longing for plain, very
simple food. That is the why" of
the New England boiled dinner"
of "salat and jowl" in the South,
Of ''hawg and hominy" in Arkansas.
To get such dinner under way
a clam and tomato juice cocktail
is really delightful and most appe-
tizing. Both juices are well chilled
and then mixed and poured into the
glasses-the best ones being tall,
slim, thin glasses holding about 4
ounces The glasses are filled and
then given just touch of celery
salt for added f1avor-and very good,
indeed.
Now, the boiling of bacon and
cabbage is not so casual as it might
seem. First, for eight persons, two
fine, solid cabbages must be found
and each one cut into four parts,
washed well and then put to soak
for couple of hours in cold. salted
water. Then this water is drained
off and the cabbage put to boil in
enough water to cover, slightly
salted. When it has boiled about Is
minutes, drain off the water. Put
in fresh water and add the bacon.
For eight persons, there should be
3 to 4 pounds and this is best cut
into two pieces, each around 2
pounds. Then continue cooking
until both bacon and cabbage are
well done and tender.
Place the cabbage on a platter
and dress with the bacon cut into
quarter inch slices.
OF course, mustard is the condi-
ment.
There are countless ways to steam
or boil potatoes, but somehow, for
this particular dinner, nothing seems
to touch medium sized egg shaped
potato boiled with the skin on-then
salted and set awhile to steam,
serving with little melted butter
On the other hand, with bacon
and cabbage, there is much to be
said for big baked potato.
This main course is filling and full
favored. 1t calls, in turn, for a
light rather acidy dessert-and
orange water ice is utterly perfect.
A long time ago, one of the members
OF the club found a small electric

ened. Season with salt and pepper
and strain. It should be thick
enough to run slowly over mounds
of light, fluffy mashed potatoes. If
too thick add a little water.
Mashed Potatoes-Too many cooks
spoil potatoes in cooking and to
my mind roast beef, gravy and
mashed potatoes are soulmates and
one should be as perfect as the
other.
Select firm potatoes. Pare care
fully and cut in halves or quarters.
Put in cold water for about half
hour. This is important If the
potatoes are old. Pour of the water
and put on fresh. Add salt. Cook
until done. Keep the water boiling.
Drain and shake them a little to
let them dry. Mash thoroughly,
using an over and over motion if
you have no electric mixer. Add
hot milk and butter and beat with
a fork until fluffy. Chopped pars-
ley and pepper is very good if added
for change.
Carrots and peas with this and a
simple dessert is sufficient, and as
your husband leans back and lets
out his belt you will be gratified.
