Bv CHERIE NICHOLAS
Once upon a time a friendly neigh­
bor living close to our house in a
small friendly town used to say over
and over, "But a dinner just isn’t a
dinner unless you top it off with a
•deserving dessert.' " And when I
pressed him to explain to me just
what he meant by a "deserving des­
sert” he explained that it was a
dessert which was so good that even
at the end of a man’s meal it still
deserved to be eaten.
After all, men, bless them, do like
their desserts and so in this column
today—I am giving to you a number
of brand new. easy-to-make recipes
for deserving desserts.
All but one, and that’s a recipe
for a deserving salad. And the rea­
sons I am featuring this lone salad
recipe with all the dessert recipes
are these: First, it makes one of
the best-to-eat salads I have ever
tasted. And second, I have a theory
that while men like desserts a good
many of them simply do not eat as
many salads as they should.
So, some time, serve this salad in
your dinner menu; then top it off
with any one of these desserts and
not alone will the man of the family
have had his favorite meal topper-
offer, but he will have had a health
giving, vitamin containing dish as
well.

NEW SWEET PEAS
NEW, more vigorous, longer-
blooming, heat-resistant sweet
pea family has been introduced to
the gardening world. It is the
spring flowering sweet pea.
Because of their newness, spring
flowering sweet peas are as yet
available in only seven colors.
Three All-American prize-winners
were introduced last year: Rose
pink, blue, and lavender. The new
ones this year are white, clear
pink, light lavender, and mauve.
The new sweet peas are grown
ju st like other types now in gen­
era l use. They may be planted
outdoors as soon as the soil can
be worked. F or best results the
soil should be spaded to a depth of
18 inches, and the lower 12 inches
mixed with fertilizer, preferably
well-rotted m anure. The trench
should then be filled with the soil-
fertilizer mixture to within six
inches of the top, and the seed
planted one inch deep in this shal­
low trench.
After vines are well established
they should be w atered thoroughly
once every five to seven days, and
the flowers picked regularly.

DESERVING DESSERTS
TERNS
Children adore buttons, and three
rows of them as used on the new
aqua Shetland wool coat pictured to
the right is enough to triple any lit­
tle girl’s joy. The pretty eyelet em­
broidered collar helps make this
coat an important spring fashion,
for white collared coats are featured
for both adults and little folks.
The nautical influence can be seen
in the coat pictured in the inset.
Navy Shetland with a red and white
trimmed sailor collar and two rows
of glittering silver buttons is the
formula adopted by the designer of
this smart and attractive model.
The pendulum has swung back to
sailor dresses. Both children and
grown-ups will wear huge white lin­
gerie sailor collars with their new
spring frocks. The top color for
spring is navy in coats, dresses
and capes.
Amusing it is to see the way chil­
dren’s fashions this year copy those
of their elders. An adult fashion
that repeats in miniature for little
daughters of the household is the
print-with-plain costume. Cunning
versions for tots are pleated-skirt
print dresses tipped with capes (na­
vy or pastel wools) lined throughout
with the print of the dress.
Influences other than the navy or
the army that make for versatility
in styling are South American trends
that bring vivid color into play. Dude
ranch fashions also delight tots.
There are lariat ties, cowboy fringe
trims and studded leather belts.

Footwear Features
Colors, Low Heels
Glamorized by style designers,
low heeled shoes will lead the fash­
ion parade this spring. Newest mod­
els have been given flippant touches
to make them more attractive.
The great emphasis on color is
perhaps their most outstanding fea­
ture: the more color the merrier.
Sandals or step-in oxfords in a glow­
ing tan, pale blond or smart wine
red shade will enliven even the so­
berest black or navy blue suit.
Tan tones are slightly favored
over other colors. They range from
the grayed twig tans, soft cocoa and
tortoise, to khaki. This last color is
especially smart in combination
with black patent leather, with
khaki gabardine used through the
center of the shoe.
Wedges are renamed "lifts” and j
are recommended for country and
sports wear.
Soft cocoa-colored suede is used
for one of the dressier shoe styles
known as a Capri sandal.
Something a little different is even
done to the navy blue oxford. Here
the navy influence is definitely mak­
ing itself felt One oxford of navy j
blue calf and gabardine has three
narrow folds of white calf across the
toe. Similar bands of white cross
the back of the heel. For the final
touch, the shoelaces have flat leather
ends with a small white star design
in the center.
Hand-Crocheted Hats -
Inexpensive to Make
Sailors, turbans, brimmed hats all
done in hand crochet—here's news
that Is news. Ask your milliner to
show you some of the new crochets.
If hats are not all-crochet, then the
crochet idea is interpreted through
trimming, such as crochet applique,
yam pompons, and huge twists of
bright wool vern.
Today there is a source of leath­
er supply formerly unknown. It
is the sea. The casing or lining
of a whale’s stom ach provides a
thousand square feet or more of
strong leather which tans well.
The skins of young sharks make
a leather excellent for women’s
shoes because it takes dye perfect­
ly. The hide of the m anatee, or
sea cow, is another source of
leather suitable for footwear,
while porpoise hide (which is ac­
tually the skin of the beluga or
white whale) is naturally w ater­
proof.
Rays of different kinds, very
common in tropical seas, provide

A traveler was wandering

After a long and tedious jour­

shack.
‘Does Hard Pete live near

"No,” said the man.
