A formal wedding calls for for

flowers are usually chosen. Flowers

The small bride should guard
against getting an enormous bou-
quet. The all-over effect is not
attractive when the bride appears
to be dwarfed by her flowers. It
is important that the bride also
give definite information concern
ing her wedding gown. Most florists
either like to see the gown or have
the information at least two weeks
before the wedding. They also like
to know what materials and colors
are being worn by her attendants.

CREAM OF TARTAR.

from Mrs. L. P. D., Ber1Dyn)
There have been two inquiries
within the past six months in the
Clearing House for information
about cream of tartar; perhaps I
can provide the information in a
fashion.
Every one knows that mixture
of vinegar (or lemon. orange or
tomato juice with baking soda will
bubble; as matter of experience
with tomato soup cake" and orange
cake we know that such combina-
tions of acids with soda make good
Ileavening, although the action is so
quickly completed that the cakes
musts be baked at once or they will
not rise as they should. Cream of
tartar behaves as an acid, and is
the main ingredient with soda in
the expensive baking powders;
little starch is added to baking pow
ders to keep the particles of the
two other ingredients apart and
prevent gradual interaction before
use. Old recipes often call for
cream of tartar and soda, and they
can be used when the housewife
discovers the pantry bare of making
powder at the last minute. They
are harmless. and that is more than
can be said of cheap baking pow
ders that contain alum.
Knowing that cream Of tartar be-
haves as an acid, we can under
stand its further uses. In candy
making and in preparing meringues
it inverts small part of the sugar
and prevents capitalization; it is
very mild bleaching agent. 1t can
be used as a rinse after a shampoo,
doing odorlessly the job of prevent
ing the deposit of calcium salts of
fatty acids on the hair. All of us
like the clean, smooth feeling of our
hair after a vinegar or lemon rinse,
but are none too fond of the acid
aroma. A solution of cream of tar
tar is a good window cleaner and is
fine for wlping greasy stove surfaces.

AS every parent knows, one read
ing is never enough when children
like q story. At least so readings
are required before they're satis-
fied. Children don't have one-track
minds realistic and fancisul stories
share popularity. They like fairy
tales, and stories about animals,
machinery, trains, fire engines, auto
mobiles, things they see and hear
every day around them. And the
more attractive the illustrations, the
merrier.
Rhymes and nursery songs are
very appealing to little children"
according to Miss Van Wrinkle.
Rhyme and rhythm sound good to
their ears. They like nursery songs
before they understand them"
Reading to children heightens
their reading readiness. It's been
learned that children who are read
to prior to their schooldays learn
to read more quickly. They learn
to listen to a story, TO follow plot,
and their spoken vocabulary is
widened. 1T also gives them more
inf o,-y,, ftov, py xr-lof life ;o l;Le
and, in some instances, prepares
them for later experiences.
Popular among children is book
like Marjorie Flack's Away Goes
Jonathan Wheeler" that starts with
Jonathan in baby carriage and
continues until he becomes pilot.
Lots Lenski's books, telling about
families and trains and other SUBJ
jects in a narrative manner, also
appeal to the children

as Paul Bunyan" and Don

mountaineers, and also popular
with the children are actually old
fairy tales seen from the American
point of view. They're most popu-
lar with children at about the
fourth grade level.
Among choice musical books for
the small child are THE Ginger
bread Man and Other Songs" by
Salts N. Coleman. containing some
of the more familiar nursery
stories set to music. Fun With
Music a friend for parents on
rainy days, tells how to make musi-
cal glasses and contains songs for

The library has a reading list for
little children from and years
old through first grade. "A Child's
Heritage" another list, covers the
years from early buying to fifth
and sixth grades.

PARACHUTE NYLON.

From Mrs. r. T. D., Washington.
In reply to the information de-
sired by Mrs S. F. S., Falls Church,
in regard to parachute silk. I would
like to submit the following:
made several blouses and scarves
from parachute nylon which are
lovely. 1t is quite a task ripping
apart the parachutes as they are
stitched with nylon thread which is
SO tough 1t has to be cut. The ma
terial trays badly and all seams
must be carefully overcast. Also
the material cannot be dyed and is
quite warm. However, if one has
the patience, the results are worth
while for the material is beautiful
My nylon blouses have had con-
tinual use for the last two years
and show no signs of wear. They
wash well and are easy to iron
though care must be taken not to
use too, hot an iron or the material
will stick to the iron. 1t is not
necessary to sew the material with
nylon thread.

BILE as it is, can be too costly when the
balance is out of plumb. This is the
situation of the United States today.
Too much is going out, too little COM
ing in.
' Before resigning as Und~ersecretary
of State, Dean Acheson pointed out our
dangerously lopsided balance in foreign
trade. He said that this years exports
probably would be $4,000, 600, 900, with
imports of only $4,000, 900, 00o.
This obviously is reflected by COM
modities available for domestic mar
kets. Some economists have indicated
that the high price of meat owe the
counter can be traced to heavy exports
with consequent lowering Of the supply
for homeland consumers. Something
similar is liable to happen in the grain
market, despite the prospect of bum
per crops. Should American elevators
be emptied or their grain reduced be-
low the margin Of safety for domestic
needs as a result of foreign shipments,
American consumers will go short and
paw through the nose for what they
get.
It is these conditions that led Sec
rotary of State Marshall to initiate his
plan for helping Europe to help itself
and for Senator V~andenberg to pro-
pose creation of a bipartisan advisory
council to study the complex problem
of how far the United States can safe
ly go in helping to finance the postwar
economic revival of the continent.
There is every reason to wish Europe
rehabilitated. Among them is the i'm
portant reason that the United States
wants to trade with Europe and can
do so to mutual advantage only when
Europe is again on it's feet commercial
ly. At the same time there can be no
reason for the United States to sign
a blank check for Europe's economic
recovery at the expense of United
States taxpayers and the further IN
balancing of United States trade.

Eisenhower Holds Fast

Mention of General of the Army
Eisenhower as possible president of
Columbia university has brought a
statement from the doughty soldier
that he has no intention of resigning
his post as Chief of Staff this year.
We may infer that if the world sit
uation is not materially improved with
the advent of 1913 he will still with
hold his resignation.
Naturally General Eisenhower would
like to retire to private life. He says
so himself, if not in actual words at
least by inuendo. His announcement,
as reported by the Associated Press,
say he would like to utilize his ener-
gies in something connected with pub
lie service of nor political nature"
Whatever his ultimate decision may
be-and it would seem to exclude the
