This Is the year to get the most
out of the clothes you have on hand,
and one way to do 1t is to have
accessories enough to give them a
fresh look. A new bag, smart gloves,
a pretty scarf, and new jewel are
enough to give new life to your
dress and suit, that has grown
familiar.
There are many new ways to wear
scarves, as was recently shown in a
New York fashion skit. For instance,
you can tie a square scarf weSkit
fashion into a suit, or fold 1t over
one shoulder like a Scot wears his
tartan scarf and make a simple
dress look new. A pretty thought is
contributed by perfume house
They suggest you wear violet print
scarf, add bunch of violets at your
shoulder and use a fresh violet
toilet water to give the Illusion of
reality. Here, indeed, is a sspring
tonic for you and your wardrobe! !!
Fabric gloves in color are pretty,
especially when matched to blouse
or hat; and, for thrilling novelty
there are luxurious handmade
gloves in suede, interesting enough
to make "a costume" out of the
simplest dress. These are occasion
gloves and should be worn accord
ingly. Some in beige, for example,
have cuffs in brown cobra, others
have insets Of crochet and even
tiny nosegays of flowers. These
gloves are dainty and feminine
tasty frosting for your spring
wardrobe.

tant as your budget will permit.
There are wonderful plastic patents
with plastic tortoise frames at $25
and more, and there are plastic
patents of simpler design at S..
Bright colored suedes In new and
interesting shapes-drawstring
types and ver-the-shoulder bags
for trim suits-provide sharp ac-
ments. There are few real feathers,
too, in bags to retail from S. TO $40.
so If you are planning b new bag
take time to shop carefully-you
will, If you are patient, find some-
thing within your budget limit.
An extra jacket can do a lot to
add to the variability OF print and
plaln-colored dresses. There are
"shorties" In bright and pastel wools.
and for spring and summer wear a
shortie in Ottoman" a rayon and
cotton fabric, that has all the rich
ness of silk. In black or beige, a
jacket like this serves many needs,
and gives a costume look to the
dress or suit under it. Hattie Car
Inegie suggests linen jackets in white
or pastel colors for your print
dresses, or over a plain black dress
There is no limit to what you can
do to extend the life of your ward
robe. A few new accessories, many
of which you can make at home,
can do wonders to clothes grown
dull.
Remember, this is the time to give
clothes you are not wearing, or do
not need, to the United Nations
Clothing Relief drive opened this
month.

let the lower water simmer along
several hours-when you will find
the top pan, holding the sugar, dry
and the sugar taking on its granu-
lated form for table use again. No
special time for heating. Watch
it, and when it is back to normal,
take it from the stove. No water

INFORMATION;
DEVILS FOOD RECIPE.
Thanks to Mrs. M. F.,
Tnkom1 Park. Md

Thanks to Mrs. NJ. F.,
TakomG Park, Md.)
Since I requested, through this
Star feature, a suggestion for reno
waiting a baby bathinet tub, I've
obtained some valuable information
that may be of some interest to the
two mothers who contacted me by
phone, Silver Spring 06l5. I'd be
glad to pass on this information to
any one troubled with leaking tub,
or any wornout part on the equip
ment. Mrs. E. E. c. of Greenbelt
may be interested, too.
A simple devils food cake, which
is my favorite and can be quickly
made by electric mixer in the small
white mixer bowl, is as follows:
One cup white sugar, 4 cup short
ening, IA cup cocoa, y cup boiling
water, "a teaspoon soda, 4 cup sour
milk or cream, l egg, teaspoon
vanilla, l teaspoon salt, l cup flour.
Mix sugar and shortening, cream
we'll Add cocoa, continue creaming.
Dissolve soda in the boiling water
and pour over mixture. Beat we'll.
Alternate sifted dry ingredients and
sour cream, adding dry ingredients
first. Beat enough to mix together
if using electric beater. Break egg
into batter and mix again. Add va
nilla.
Batter is thin, but turns into a
rich and brown cake of only one
LAYER size if made in 8x8-inch tin.
Bake in 350-degree oven 35-40
minutes. An excellent icing Is one
made of egg whites and honey. Two
egg whites and u cup of honey
beaten together until of spreading
consistency. This may be made and
stored as it may be too much for
one cake.

CANDIED SWEET POTATOES.
Thanks to Mrs. j. w. H.,
WHSbiu0fOu


Instead of boiling the potatoes
first I prefer to candy them raw.
They will stay firm. While the red
ones have a nice flavor, I like the
yellow ones best for a candied dish,
as they will not come out quite as
"mushy" as the former. When using
the oven to bake slice of ham, the
potatoes can be put in at the same
time, in separate dishes of courses
and I sometimes add third dish
such as apple crispy" for dessert.
Four medium potatoes q pounds) +,
u cup brown sugar, 4 teaspoon salt.
l tablespoon butter, 4 tablespoons
water.
Pare potatoes and cut in half
lengthwise. Place in baking dish
fiat side down Try to have one layer
if possible Ioblong dish. Combine
sugar, water, butter and salt and
bring to boil Pour sirup over po-
tatoes. Cover and bake one hour at
$50 degrees. Uncover last or 10
minutes to brown.

covered that the addition of plain
powdered soybean milk gives a

and this requires no cooking as when
a flour thickener is used, so saves
time. I hope these suggestions give
you some ideas that you can adapt
to your own tastes.

quately f1aky. If any reader in this
cosmopolitan area could tell me how
to make them I would be greatly
obliged.
