NEW FASHIONS-PRO AND CON.
(From Mrs. C. S., Chevy Chase.)
I've been awfully interested in
reading the various pro and con dis
cussions about the drastic change in
women's fashions this year, and
believe I must agree with Miss E.
g. D. on the whole, but even so,
should love to put in my cents
worth.
In the first place, It's so dead easy
to lengthen last years dresses, even
If they have only the merest hint Of
hem to let all the way down! In
any department store in town you
can purchase, for no great price, any
amount of satin ribbon In all shades
imaginable by the yard (and in any
width desired, which makes SIM
ply superperfect facing hem" And
when you consider that the major
ity of American women are going to
let their hens fall according to the
current style, why make yourself
conspicuous by being that much diff
ferent? And, anyhow, who has legs
as good as Marlene Dietrich's which
can take knee-length hem?
On the subject of shoulde. pads,
however, I differ. I still hold out
strongly for the wide shoulder line
because there's just something about
it Ito my way of thinking, at least)
that adds that certain something"
1T makes the waistline appear
much smaller and does a heap of
good for the gal who tends to be
stoop-shouldered or narrow Shout
dered, or just naturally doesn't have
the correct posture.
The hair styles that are most
becoming will always be ''in style"
The awful rats and buns of the
first World War never did a thing
for any gal, but I do think the
pompadours are vastly fattering to
a lot of women and to those women
say keep EN-" I, for one, thought
a haircut any shorter than shoulder
length would be nothing short of an
Indian scalping, but took chance
this summer during the worst of
the heat wave and had my locks
whacked off within three inches of
my scalp. I love the freedom which
has been encouraged from the
"scalping," the ease of keeping my
hair looking fairly neat, and above
all do love the many compliments
I've had about how unusually be-
coming my short haircut is. And
unless one has q face like full
moon, I have come to the conclu-
sion that the short haircut, If shaped
to the head properly. Is vastly be-
coming and surprisingly youthful.
FINALLY 7 feel that the woman
who avoids change, or fears it, Is
admitting old age, so more power
to the new styles and the style
makers, even If it does take few
hours a week to let down last years
hens, pluck up courage enough to
shear the lamb, or admit that the
new dark-hude hosiery Is, after all,
twice as fiattering to the legs! And,
summing it all up in general, guess
Pd advise wearing Cor having CUT
your hair In Its most becoming

ANTIQUE FINISH?

from Mrs. /. T. S., Alexandria,
To Mrs. c. D. Med: I have been
reading all the recipes for cooking
fluffy rice, but not one has come
anywhere near the method I use. 1t
is such an easy method and such
good results are always obtained that
I felt I wanted to pass my recipe on.
I always use the long grain rice.
I always put twice as much water
as rice in a tight-covered saucepan.
Add salt to taste, be careful not to
add too much, as it Is not drained
off after cooking. Put on stove and
bring to a boil, then turn of heat
and let steam for about 20 minutes.
Do not lift lid after heat is turned
off. This steams your rice nice and
fluffy without making 1t sticky as
steady boiling will. Then at the end
of 20 minutes or whenever you're
about ready to serve it, place back
on medium heat to complete cooking
and dry it out ready to serve. have
had many compliments on my fluffy
rice and all were amazed at this
simple way Of cooking it. I devised
the method because I wasn't satisfied
with other ways, as they were either
too much trouble or the results were
sticky rice, and I was forever letting
it boil over. I hope you have as
much luck with this method as I
have.
I wonder If any one could tell me
how to put an antique ivory finish
on an old upright piano.

Is Vogue!
I am fortunate, I guess, since I am
a size 12-and my waistline mere
% inches-hence needs no pinching
corset-nor do I require being
padded in any places!! Heaven for
bid! And I won't bubble with you
about who first introduced the
padded shoulder, but I'm sure most
agree that the most famous motion
picture designer is a stanch advo-
cate of this square shouldered effect
"a feature referred to often as
Adrian shoulders" and extensively
copied.
Well, E. c. D., you pinch your
waist and pad your hips, I'll just
60 along in comfort wearing "saus-
age castings" by Adrain or Greer OF
Tentner. I'll not succumb to the
faddish things and consequently I'll
not have an obsolete wardrobe in a

hensive manufacturers find these
unsuitable styles are not being &C
