MO ONE likes to fuss
IN around the kitchen very
much during the summer, but
we all like to entertain occa-
sionally, even II the tempera-
ture is in the COS.
Desserts that can be made
in the cool of the morning
and tucked away in the re-
frigerator to serve later in the
afternoon are tops with the
summertime hostess. All the
desserts we offer you today
are in this category. There's
little, if any, last-minute fix
ing. You can be as relaxed
as your guests until refresh
ment time.
To save baking, use ready
made sponge layers for the
coconut glacier cake. The
apricot tapioca looks far more
expensive than it is when
served in pretty parfait
glasses. 1t can be made a day
or so in advance, If that is
more convenient for YOU.
The crispy cereal shells are
impressive and easy to make,
Fill them with the frozen Gus
tard and drizzle generously
with smooth dark chocolate
sauce for an irresistible des-
sert. The frozen fruit salad
Is really a creamy dessert
salad, but it, too, can be made
a day ahead. It's perfect for
a summer brides party or a
bon voyage party for your
next-door neighbor.

STILL FIGHT In WASHINGTON

Misunderstanding specifically
for more school buildings in Wash
ington, DR.. Hobart M. Corning,
superintendent of schools of the
District of Columbia, last week told
a house subcommittee on education
and labor that unless more accom-
modations are provided for Negro
children, there will be more pupil
strikes in Washington.
The "a percent increase of Negro
pupils in the District of Columbia
during the past seven years has
resulted in overcrowded schools,
double and triple shifts, he said.
He told the committee that in
1916 there were 49,377 white chill
dren in the District as compared
to 1888 Negro children. But now
there are only 45,727 white chill
dren and 50,538 Negro pupils.
The drop in white population and
the increase in Negro population
has necessitated the shift of Is
school buildings originally used by
white children to be used for Negro
schools, in addition to two more
