For the past six years, I've care

on my musical background, knowl-

have today. Not only is Savannah
beautiful and sweet, she can sing.
Savannah, a great Victor record
ing artist, not only is intelligent
with womanly poise, but she is
also a true artist with class. She
isn't big-headed, but down to earth.
When seen in person, her enchant-
ing beauty, as we'll as her mag

Churchill the greatest female sing

And in helping others out he never

Peoples lives he keeps enrichin'
And he's always in there pitchin'
For hundred and one different

Every hour, night and day
Pleas for favors come his way
Some important and few that

Whether problems are neurotic
Or exotic or narcotic
There's an sos that comes to
Uncle Willie.
Yet he finds all this worthwhile
Greets all corners with a smile
And his outlook really couldn't be

We all share his great citation
And the public's exultation
Which entities him to be called

May the Good Lord keep an eye
On this very decent guy
Cause we need him in our great

We'd all get along like brothers

According to Hope Skillman, the
designer who does so much to
provide wonderful fabrics and
colorS for the country's top de-
signers, resort clothes today have
a greater Importance for women
than ever before.
Even If Nassau and Palm Beach
aren't on the agenda there are
other reasons why SO many resort
fashions are being sold. One is
that many Office workers are TAX
ing vacations and another is that
our expanded military service has
helped create a year round market
for resort-type clothes. Wherever
the United States has military
bases, and the Caribbean area is
one such, families frequently live
near the base or permanent sta
ton.
The widespread travel plans
of others are producing resort
fashions that 60 'year-round, and
which reflect a new fashion in
living. They may be bought in
January or February but may be
worn throughout the year.

FUR COATS.
TILE FLOOR.
DENVER.
mrs. X. L. k. McLed7s)


Do any Of you readers have
suggestions to offer about re-
juvenating an nice but old mou-
ton lamb jacket? The fur along
edges of the jacket is matted and
dull and the color has faded
from the original pinkish brown
to a yellowish brown, except
along the undersides of the
sleeves.
Several years ago I had it in
Spected by a furrier when I took
a fur coat in for summer re-
conditioning" and he said at
that time the jacket needed no
professional attention-which I
thought inferred the mouton
lamb could be glazed, etc., If
necessary. However, two Wash
ington furriers recently stated
most definitely that absolutely
nothing can be done to restore
mouton lamb-decisions I find
hard to believe. The jacket has
always been such a wonderful
asset that I hate to give it up,
but it must remain in the closet
this year unless some one can
give me some helpful ideas.
Perhaps can return this favor
by giving some information to
the reader who asked about lay
ing tiles on an uneven floor. My
husband and I converted an attic
room into a delightful studio
and bedroom, using asphalt tiles
over an uneven board floor.
We warmed the tiles in front
of an electric heater and quickly
stuck them down in the black
gooey tile cement. While the tiles
are warm they will bend over the
ridges, but also fit together
smoothly, so making a very
usable floor. The floor was not
difficult to do. most economical
and easily kept nice. We have
since done several other floors
and do enjoy the results.
Another reader inquired about
living conditions in Colorado
Denver. I believe-and since I
have seen no reply will send
along a bit of information she
may find helpful.
Our family is from Denver
and we do know it well. The
climate is very dry there and,
while winters may have short
spells Of near-zero weather, the
cold is not penetrating as 1t is
here. For example, I never felt
a real need for a fur coat in
Denver, but find 1t a near-ne-
cessity here.

The title Of the first chapter Of

Of her own nursery school, Mrs.
Harlan has never allowed her

build up the kind of relationship

Mrs. s. r., Alexandria: The
following is from Rombauer's
"Joy of Cooking" and I've used
it successfully a number OF
times:
See that these are crisp and
brown on the outside, rare and
juicy within. This means q
quick, hot fire. Rub venison
steaks with a cut Glove Of garlic,
a generous amount Of butter.
Season with salt. pepper or
paprika. Broil the steaks under
a broiler or over a hot open
fire. Make this a short process
unless the steaks are very thick.
Serve them with currant Jelly

butter.
Or If Mrs. S. r. wants to
make. an unusual treat. Of the
steaks dip them in olive oil,
then in seasoned bread crumbs,
and broil or saute them quickly
In butter.
Probably the main thing. to
remember is that the steaks,
when cooked, should be family
pink in the middle to retain
their succulence and taste.
Generally they are as tender as

quire less cooking unless they
