NEW YORK, N. UT may be
bitter cold, as it is right now in
New York, but the flowers, feath-
ers. stfaw hats and yelled bonnets
are out in full force in the various
milliners' showrooms.
Visiting a showroom with around
$50 other fashion editors twice a
year you certainly see lots of hats.
After seeing them paraded around
by the attractive New York models
it's sometimes pretty hard to re-
member just which was the Victor
and which the Florell. But be-
tween memory and note-taking here
are the spring trends for which to
watch.
One important thing your hat
will do this spring is balance your
clothes silhouette. Tiny waists
ull-hipped dresses and coats call
for hat that will complement the
silhouette to advantage. That hat
may be either small, medium sized
or large, depending on the indi-
vidual.
Besides visiting the millinerS
showrooms, fashion editors also at
tend a Millinery Fashion Bureaus
breakfast at the Hotel Commodore
every January and July. At this
breakfast are shown the coming
seasons new hat fashions designed
by tine name milliners.
The milliners this year have been
quick to spot the various changes
and the new spring hats certainly
do credit to the woman of fashion
who this spring has suddenly gone
fragile, soft and plenty Victorian.
It's easy to understand this, eccept-
ance" when one realizes that a
fashion change vitality affects other
allied industries.
Some of the noticeable trends for
spring are the return to deep-toned
felt pastels, flowers and feathers to-
gether, ribbons, forward swinging
hats, bonnet silhouettes, sailors,
rough straws dyed in deep pastel
shades, face swathing yelling, big
cartwheels and hats Of shantung
dyed in appealing bright colors.
The most f1attering hats Of any
season are due to pop on the spring
scene this year. Two of the out
standing collections seen to date are
Lilly Dache's and Laddie North
ridges. Last year Lilly used the
plain hat with detachable yelling
and flowers that could be worn on
the hat, or draped around the throat
and pinned onto the suit or dress.
She wants it known that her COL
lection this year is decidedly tempt
ing. In fact, she labels it temp
tress." At her showing for the press
Lilly had her hats modelled by tall
mannequins who really looked as If
they had just stepped on to the run
way before swishing into carriage
to dine at Delmonico's. One manne-
uuin even were the shoe of the day,
which many are trying to revive, the
French heel studded with rhine
stones, below-the-knee garters, and

they were made of cloth. :. Braa-
gard thinks for spring the beret
will 60 places, with a small beret
favored for dressy occasions. Pastels
are important with Braagaard and
his trims of roses and ribbons are
perched prettily on his designs. One
balibuntal straw even features q
fiange of white mink tails. Lee
nesta believes white will be big
color for spring. She features the
color in various new looking cush-
Toned brims and mushroom crowns
mostly trimmed with WHISKY yelling.
Well report soon on the other
hat collections being seen later on
this week.

GrTAM?
GUAM!
/Ero1,1 Mrs q. c. E.. WdShinQtOn.

from Mrs. D. C. E., WasItington.)
I should like very much to contact
an Army or Navy wife who has been
to Guam, or some similar locale in
the Pacific area. My overseas travel
has been authorized and I am leav-
ing within few weeks to join my
husband who is stationed at Guam
Memorial Hospital.
I have a year-old son and the
prospect of the long voyage with
him is rather frightening. would
so like to talk to some one who has
made the trip, to get some idea OF
what to expect and what to prepare
for during the voyage and also on
Guam. My husband has tried to be
helpful, but he just can't think OF
those details that woman wants
to know. I do hope some one can
help me.
Unfortunately we do not have a
telephone, but you can contact me
in care Of the Clearing House.
ANISE CAKES.
From Mrs. X. P. S., An71polis.)
In answer to M. w. P.'s request
for Anise cakes, I'm submitting a
very good recipe for same. -Four
eggs, pound powdered sugar, a1ise
suitable to taste, about v teaspoon.
flour. to stiffen. about 3~cups, w
teaspoons baking powder. Beat
sugar and eggs for II hour (and 1t
must be the " hour, then add
anise. Add flour and baking pow
der. Roll out on board and cut
into squares. Place on slightly
creased pans and bake right away
for 10 minutes in a slow oven. This
is a very "old family" recipe and
they really are delicious. If you
happen to have a rolling pin that
is marked into squares and has
flowers and birds in each square,
then it's so much the better, because
then your cakes will look like the
old fashioned kind.

during her reign it was fashionable
to wear replicas of them as pins,
and they were painted on vases and
such. One of Mr.. Northridge's hob
bies Is the collection of these hands.
His spring hats, one whole group OF
them, have little and big hands Of
24-kt. gold as part of the trimming
on the hats. Mr.. Northridge sug-
gests that spring cartwheels be worn
not back on the head, but straight
on, with the width on the sides
The variety of hats this spring will
be almost amazing. You'll see
fabrics used for many hats and
you'll find straws such as ballibuntl
and Milan blocked or draped as If

FRENCH NURSERY BOOK.

From Mrs. p. w., BerUyn.j
To Mrs. F. j. G. of Piney Point.
I believe she'll find that the large
book store on F street that she
mentioned used to carry the French
nursery book in stock. If she doesn't
find it there at this time they will
gladly order it for her.

FRIED PIES.

from M. E. K, Washington
Cook dried apples, peaches or
apricots as the directions on the box
say. When done and cool mash
with your hand. Mixture should be
as thick as heavy whipped cream.
SWeeten to taste, should be sweeter
than when fruit is eaten plain.
Make a rich biscuit dough, roll
out as for a pie. Lay saucer over
dough and cut rounds with silver
knife. Put three or four tablespoons
fruit on one half of each round of
dough. Wet edges of dough with
water and fold the empty half of
dough over the fruit. Press edges
together well and prick pie with
fork.
I use heavy iron frying pan but
the other kind will do. Use me-
dunn flame and just enough grease
to keep pies from burning. Fry until
brown and turn over and fry the
other side. These are good warmed
over. I was reared in the northern
part of Alabama and have eaten
the pies all my life. People laugh
when you say fried pies, but just
let them have one bite and they
come back for more.

: HOUSE WARMING?
From Mrs. r. o. W., Washington. J
Would like any information on
giving a house warming. We are
moving into a. new home soon and
would like to have a house warming.
How soon after moving should we
give this party? Also would ap-
preciate ideas as to refreshments,
how to serve, entertainments, etc.
We have never had such party
and have only attended one so any
information or suggestions will prove
helpful. About how many guests
makes a nice party and how long
does it last? Should invitations be
mailed or is 1t better to ask each
guest personality

ELECTRIC COMFORTER

Es4lG1A 4kt4S S\(I0x wv 3axV
From C. S. H., Washington.J
Since reading the articles in RICH
on electric blankets feel ] should
like to tell the readers about bed
covering I recently received which
I consider superior to the blanket.
1t is an electric comforter, designed
to give warmth without weight.
The top is rayon satin, underneath
the satin there is layer of fame
proof cotton batting. Then layer
of muslin backing. These three
layers are quilted together. The
quilted satin top is sewed to the
rayon faille underside to form a
kind of envelope. with 36-inch
Upper at the bottom. The warming
sheet is placed inside the envelope
and tied in place with tapes. The
control Is a decorative, powder box
design, small enough to place on
any bedside table.
When my comforter has to be
cleaned, all I will have to do is
zip the upper, turn the outer shell
inside out, and unite the warming
sheet. The outer shell can be sent
to the cleaners. If occasionally the
warming sheet needs washing, all /
will need to do is suds and rinse 1t.
It is such joy to know that ]
will be comfortably warm even If
the temperature in the room gets
very low. I set the little warmth
selection knob on the control box
for the warmth desired and the con-
troll compensates for changes in
room temperature.
1t is feather light, yet takes the
place of three or four heavy cover
ings. Compared to a down puff
it is really wafer thin. Because 1t
is made of rayon, cotton and muslin
it needs no spraying, no moth balls,
no cedar chest protection.
The lining is the same color as
the top, but being rayon faille it
does not slip off the bed but .actu-
ally grips the sheets. Then, too,
there is a finch tuck-in at the
foot of the bed.
My comforter Is luscious green
but, if because of wear, damage
or a desire to change color scheme,
it will be possible to purchase
another outer cover without buy
ing new warming sheet or control
They come in green, blue and rose.

CHRYSANTHEMUM PLANTS.
LOCATING BOOK?

From Mrs. M. c., Washington.)
To the lady who wanted advice
about chrysanthemum plants. Will
say they are not house plants, how
ever they will live indoors and they
may bloom indoors. Ordinary soil
and watering will keep them, but
if she wishes better flowers, plant
in the yard or garden and put some
kind of fertilizer around them. They
will live outdoors.
I would like to get copy OF a
book I think is out of print, but
not 50 old. The name is "Audry,"
it was written by Mary Johnson, I
think, of Richmond, Va. 1t Is a
story of Colonial Virginia when
Williamsburg was the capital and
was written in the early 1900 or q
few years later. Some one borrowed
my copy and never returned it. 1t
was a first edition. would appre-
ciate any help in locating a copy.

Churchman's 5 Editor
Criticizes Marshall
Al Awards Dinner
BY fhe Associoied Press

NEW YORK, June 4.-The editor
of the Churchman magazine says
Secretary of State Marshall has sud-
denly discovered facts about the
magazine published in its masthead
since 1904.
DR.. Guy Emery Shipler made the
comment last night at the maga-
zines dinner where Gen. Marshall
was to have received the publica-
tons annual award for promotion
of good will among people. Gen.
Marshall had rejected the award,
asserting the Churchman was not an
official organ of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church and that the magazine
INDUCED in politics and internation-
al affairs editorially.
Dr. Simpler, one Of group of
Protestant clergymen who said re-
ligious freedom existed in Yuglo-
slavia after visit to that country
and a conference with Marshal Tito,
said in his dinner speech:
Recently Government Of
fetal, who for eight months had
told me that he would like to be
present on this occasion, suddeny
made some surprising discoveries
and changed his mind
Published Since 1904.
"He found, he said. that the
Churchman is not, as I had orig
inally understood, the official organ
Of the Episcopal Church, devoting it
self exclusively to religious matter.
It's editorials extend far into the
realm of politics and international
affairs"
After noting that the magazine
has been published only since
1904" DR.. Shipler said it never has
beeen an official publication and
always has carried in its masthead
the phrase IAN independent jour
nal" He said the Episcopal Church
has no official National journal ex-
eept a missionary monthly.
Some Government intelligence
agency" DR.. Shipler said, did an
amazing job in unearthing these
secrets and certainly earned the tax
payers money"
Salute to Israel
"Christian salute and "Warmest
welcome" citation was presented at
the dinner to the new state of Israel
The citation was accepted by
Rabbi Israel Goldstein, former pres
ident of the Zionist organization of
America Aubrey S. Eban, Israels
representative at the United Nations,
had turned down an invitation to
attend following Gen. Marshalls re-
fusal of the annual award.
The Rev. DR.. Wendell Phillips,
Episcopal clergyman of Rye, N. Y,
who presided at the dinner, said the
decision to make an award to Mar
shall was made by committee Of
1000 and not by the staff Of the
