and require rather high style to set
them off properly. For the present
season you might like to make them
into a lovely suit perhaps with a
modified hustle.
First select good pattern and
then prepare the material for your
project This will probably require
ripping the whole garment apart as
the remodeling will be complete
change from the former garment.
Pay particular attention to such
detail as the sleeves and the
hustle and follow the pattern care
fully. If there is not quite enough
material, use contrasting ribbon, or
modify the style just little to suit
the individual wearer.
Bustles are attractive only If they
are styled correctly. A dress form
is handy to have for moulding the
lines carefully, as they may re-
quire slight adaptation from the orig
inal style. Pin and baste carefully
and then try the effect on the actual
person and make any other nec-
essary adjustments before putting
in the final stitches.
You will have to sew both Of
these fabrics carefully to make
them look their best. Allow plenty
Of room. as they do not give when
worn.
When sewing sheer material. set
the machine stitches carefully, and
test on a strip of fabric before
you do any actual sewing on the
accessory you are making. You
may also use tissue paper under
meath the material when sewing.
as this gives the material more
body while you stitch. This is cas-
lily ripped off when you finish the

Planning Wordrobes

There are many interesting
ways Of choosing clothing for
yourself. One of the best ways
Of appearing your most at
tractive is always to choose col
ors that blend well or contrast
with your own personal type of
beauty.
If you have lovely home, look
to the colors you use in your
rooms and borrow them for
your wardrobe. Or, if you have
lovely picture print in color,
test the colors against your own
complexion and see if they can't
furnish inspiration for your
clothing.
Check all colors you would use
on yourself from all angles. See
what they do for you under diff
terent lighting, and when you
are certain they fatter you al
ways, use them as a basis for
your wardrobe.
It's always good idea to have
one or two good basic dresses
in the wardrobe, and several sets
Of accessories to 60 with them.
If you have a suit, make sure
it fits perfectly, and then build
a wardrobe around it with differ.
ent blouses and dickies, hats,
shoes and other accessories.

Amber TaliSman

From and during prehistoric
times wearing amber was con-
sidered potent charm against dis
ease and many kinds Of i'll fortune.
According to some authorities this
belief in the potency of amber as q
charm is a survival from the time
of widespread sun worship when the
yellow color and general aspect Of
amber suggested that it might par
take of the divine nature Of the sun.

Tears OF EeIiaGeS

Early legends which accounted for
the origin of amber sound fantastic
to modern ears. The best known,
that given in Greek mythology, is
that amber is the tears of the He
liades. The Heliades were the sis
ters of Phaeton who after Phaeton's
disastrous attempt at driving the
suns chariot were changed into pop
lar trees which ever since continu-
ally weep tears of amber.

Children like Ginger foods" such
as carrot strips and celery curls,
in their lunch boxes. Another sug-
gestion is a shredded vegetable sal
ad. It may be prepared as usual,
then rolled tightly in a cabbage

Then wrap in waxed paper, twist
ing the ends. To eat the salad, the
child untwists one end of the paper,
removes the toothpick, and holds
the closed end tightly as he eats.

Refresh Wardrobe by Restyling
Garments No Longer in Fashion
&y G,tta Haley

I THINK we can divide women
into two groups when they look
into their old clothes closets.
There's the first group who make
wry face and who try to get rid OF
these garments as quickly as pos
sible. Then there's the second
group. These women thoughtfully
pick up each garment, consult their
fashion notes and convert the
dresses into something that could
have come from a smart depart
ment store.
To the smart woman, there's not
dress no matter how old, that
cannot prove useful if she is clever
with the needle Some garments
naturally will require a good deal
of restyling or even complete alter
alton. Others will need just slight
change in neckline or skirt to make
them completely new and re-
freshed.
Dresses frequently discarded are
old formals which look so woe-
begone when they come out OF clos
cts. Yet look at the beautiful mate
rials in them, and think for a
moment how nicely they could be
made into perfectly beautiful house
coats, new formals or fresh-look-
ing suits.
If the neckline on an old formal
Is hopeless, it's an easy matter to
alter this. Perhaps you will buy a
bit Of net and work this into a new
type Of yoke and sleeves. Sequinned
straps may be taken apart and used
at the wrists as seen in so many
of the gowns showing Grecian in
duence. Or, take the sequins apart
and use them as a decoration
around the neckline, or clustered
together in a design or flower.

Oil Scissors

Oil the shears and scissors every
six months. Put drop of sewing
machine oil on both sides of the
screw that holds the blades togeth-

after using to keep them free of
dust, but if rust or dark spots do
appear, rub off the roughness with
fine sandpaper and steel wool and
apply a little oil.
