I don't think they preserve care
fully enough the glamour and the
miracle. If husbands and wives al
ways spoke to each other kindly; if
they built up an increasing and null
tiplying credit of confidence and
goodness in the bank that is their
life together; if they valued their
children, loved them, dramatized
the exquisite beauty of the nursery;
if they made light of money wor-
ries, saved, planned, rejoiced in
their life together-then there would
be no bachelors, and every girl who
got good husband would feel her.
self blessed among women.
The old financial dependence
won't come back. A man no longer
has to make home and pay all ex-
penses for houseful of women, old
women, children, babies. Every
thing is easier now; everyone lives
separately. Mother has lucrative
job, and the very teen-agers break
away and set up bachelor establish
ments of their own.
But the old values remain. Using
canned pie-crust and dropping gar
bage into an incinerator tube, flood
ing the house with electric lights
and keeping halls and bathrooms at
June temperatures all the year
round, telephoning downstairs for
company dinners and leaving De-
troit at dawn to lunch at Scots in
Piccadilly-all this is exciting. But
it never will take the place of the
real values of life; it never will fill
a mans or woman's soul with the
deep content, the trembling pride,
the fears and hopes, despairs and
victories, that are true marriage. It
never will give them the faithful
firm clasp of another hand on
theirs, in sickness and health, for
richer or poorer, for better or
worse.

Woman's World " ~"
Color and Design, Not Stitching,
Are Important in Quilt Making
&y G,tta Haley

WE AREN'T judged, as home.
w makers, by the number OF
quilts we hang on our lines to air,
as was the case once upon time,
but that doesn't mean that quilts
have either lost their usefulness or
their charm. In fact, there's no
doubt that every household would
be more comfortable or "homey" if
there were a few quilts around to
add charm to the decorative
scheme in the bedroom or coziness
as we stretch out for an afternoon
or evening nap.
Color and design are the impor-
tant things in making quilts even
though the ones with intricate
stitching and piecing still may win
blue ribbons. There are very
charming patterns which may be
made easily even by beginners.
You first step in quilt making is a
selection of the design as well as the
color. You may copy the pattern of
a quilt you have admired, or make
up an original design or even mod
ify a standard pattern with your
own ideas. If you are inexperienced,
the safest choice would be to copy
a quilt pattern.
You may want to put all your
favorite colors in the quilt, and
these certainly have charm, but
really the best ones have a definite,
well thought out color scheme, so
follow this as well as the design.
Consider the color of the quilt also
in terms of the room in which you
are planning to use it. Work out the
design in crayon in advance and
then see if it is appropriate for the
room. In this way you won't have a
useless quilt.
Making the Pattern,
Cutting the Pieces
Make the pattern by doing an
exact full-sized drawing of the
block which is to be the basic unit
of your quilt. If you are copying an

LIVING ALONE

Those 1ubo prefer to stay single
enjoy certain advantages and COM
pensations, as Miss Norris points
out in today's article. 1t is some
thing to be able to spend all your
money ON yourself, to do tUbat
you please tVitboat barring to s0or-
~ about Vbat your spouse thinks.
There is freedom from The ex-
benses and worries of family life,
THE care Of children, THE troubles
1Oitb in-latVs.
Yet these single people really
are trying to deceiDe themselves,
Miss Norris continues. All THE
lnsnries and pleasures, The free
dom and THE nneoneern, are poor
compensation for the deep human
joys and satistactions that married
life brings. Life suitbont love is
dull and barren.
Part of The reason tvby people
stay single, Miss Morris says, is
because married people fail to
make marriage look attraetiDe.
The glamour fades quickly be-
cause of The selfsbness and petit
ness of one or both partners. The
bigb divorce rate indicates that

other quilt, trace the design through
tissue paper. In either case, make
certain the sides and corners of the
block are perfectly square and true.
Small blotters frequently make nice
skidproof patterns.
To cut the patterns, place the
cardboard pattern for one block on
the fabric you are using. Trace
lightly with a pencil, placing and
cutting all pieces on the straight of
the goods. Cut the units out one
fourth of an inch beyond the traced
outline to allow for seams. The
seams may be pressed back over
the pattern to form a crease and
make the sewing easier.
It's good idea to sew the pieces
together to make a sample block.
With this, check the accuracy of

Far Away Is the Sun

The earth is nearest the sun in
January and farthest away in July.
In 1947 the date of perihelion( when
the earth was closely was January
3, and the distance separating us
was 91,342,00 miles. The time when
we are farthest apart, called aphe-
lion, came on July S.. 1947, with the
distance of 94,451 900 miles. The
reason that it is warmer in July
than in January is not due to any
close approach of the sun, but to
the fact that in the northern hemi-
sphere the sun comes more nearly
overhead and its ray Of heat and
light fall on the ground more near
ly vertically and are more concen-
trated than in the winter.

ANTISEPTIC IN CINNAMON

A germ-killer from cinnamon oil
has been discovered accidentally by
Sister M. Petronella Schroeder, bac-
teriologist at the Institutum Divi
Thomaum in Cincinnati. It is by
product of the scientific search dur
ing the war for chemicals to replace
quinine as malarial remedy.
Searching for a remedy related
to penicillin in another mold, the
sister used ether reclaimed after its
war use in extracting a chemical
from plant that yields cinnamon
oil.

Corduroy is showing off in the
great swing-back coats that are

lines. Many Of these coats have a

makes them a dual purpose coat

Set and Line Quilt
And Make it Sturdy

When all the blocks for the quilt
are complete, join them together.
Add the border after the blocks are
set. The quilt may be set in an all
over pattern or in alternate pat
termed or plain blocks or in pat
termed blocks Joined with bands of
plain fabric.
A good, sturdy fabric such as
sheeting should be used for lining
the quilt, and it is cut the same
size. This may be dyed in con-
trasting color so that the reverse
side of the quilt has a lovely effect.
Lay the lining fiat and smooth.
then place the cotton batting which
you use for the lining over that and
finally the quilt. Pin and haste to-
gether securely so there can be no
Slipping during the quilting.
The quilting itself may be done on
frame, quilting hoop or with the
quilt laid on bed or table. There
are two ways in which the actual
quilting may be done. One is by
showing the needle straight up and
then straight down, drawing it COM
pletely through the quilt with each
stitch. Another way is to use a run
ming stitch, taking two or three at
a time and pulling them up slightly
for puffy effect.
Use separate piece of fabric for
binding the quilt. An edging of
n to " inch is considered good, or,
If you prefer, the backing may be
folded up over the edge of the quilt
to form binding.

Traditional Patterns
Are Simple

Are Simple
Among the piecework patterns
which you might like to try are the
flower garden and the unknown
star. The flower garden is made
completely of hexagonal units. If
you are using three inch units,
which are easy for working, make
six blocks at each end of the unit
the same color throughout the quilt.
For the unknown star pattern,
make block 10 inches square,
using diamond units l inch wide
and 2k inches long, a square 13s
inches long and irregular triangles
to complete the circle. Four corner
pieces square off the block.
In the applique patterns, a wild
rose pattern is effective for femi-
nine bedroom. This floral pattern
uses 10 inch blocks of applique set
alternately with 10 inch blocks of
white. Use circle inches in diam
eter to locate the tips of the leaves
and circles l inch in diameter for
the flower hearts and centers of the
design. Draw l leaf and l petal
and use as pattern. This pattern is
effective in rose pink, jade green
and yellow.
A rose of sharon uses 15-inch ap-
pliqued blocks. Use a circle 91s
inches in diameter to place centers
of roses and stems. Each wreath
requires 6 Special roses and 6
stem and leaf units. Roses measure
inches, tip to tip, and the leaf stem
units fit into Pinch piece. Bor-
der in pattern of trailing vines,
buds and leaves.
