The next time you entertain,
whether It's for the young people
home from college on a spring hol-
iday or for your favorite serviceman
on furlough, why not decorate a
cake to match your Powered china2
You'll be sure to win artistic &C
claim from your guests, for it's a
clever trick as well as thrifty one
to serve refreshments that double as
decorations these days.
You can count on young people
to have large-size appetites, SO it's
good hotess technique to include
sandwiches as well as cake in your
refreshment menu and to costar
them with holiday mocha froth.
lisa fluffy, spicy treat, made from
regular or decaffeinated coffee. You
can use unrationed filings for the
sandwiches, like chopped deviled egg,
chopped nuts and raisins, minced
green pepper and cottage cheese,
and you can gain variety by using
both whole wheat and white bread.
When it comes to the flower
decked cake, that's really an easy
matter. Frost it first with white
icing, then add a drop or two of
vegetable coloring to part Of what's
left for the flowers, and a little
green to the rest for stems and
leaves. Put the frosting in pastry
tube and experiment little, making
a flower on a piece of paper. You
can sketch the design on the cake
with q burnt match stick, whitfield
to point. The petals and leaves
may be made either solid or in out
line. Don't be worried If YOU make

my pet dislike in a mixed green salad
is cut up tomato. Sliced tomatoes
are grand salad Of their own, but
In mixed green salad they make
q mess Of things for themselves and
every one else. .Shun them.
For q Spanish American dessert,
cups Of custard with or without cara

are sure to be correct. And to be
truly correct look up q Spanish or
French or Italian grocer and get
some special foreign roast Of coffee,
making coffee which will be as black
as night and very, very Intriguing.

served, should be . glass Of sherry

prefers, bottled beer In place Of the

parison between her faults and

She might abstractly admire hus-

would certainly get on her nerves
and wouldn't be any fun to live with.
And after al! what would . wife
do with . husband whose morals
and manners and habits and tastes
and Judgment were perfect and who
didn't need any reforming? Not
only her occupation but her chief
pleasure In life would be gone and
she would be bereft Of conversation
when she joined INV talkfest where
wives discuss the shortcomings of
their husbands s;aa tell how they
saved their Johns life by stopping
him from drinking coffee, or how
their Tom, Dick Of Harry would have
to join q Nudsst: Colony If they
didn't pick out Ilie clothes for him.
But here is q c3rious thing about
the girls who ARD demanding ideal
husbands. They ,fAver seem to think
about what theyi are going to give
in exchange for fEne aggregation Of
top drawer qualities they are de-
manding in theik mates. Nor do they
appear to ask themselves why an
ideal man would pick out Just 4

So it would be interesting to know
just what Inns IF attractions this
young woman carries who refuses
to marry any man who Is not hand

be reciprocity in marriage and that
