CLEVER SLEEVES LIKE BUTTERFLY WINGS
IN FLUFFY TULLE DESIGNS LATEST VOGUE
New Frocks for Restaurant Dinner and Dance Are "Faddish" and Unique, Decidedly Smart and Ultimate
Word in Style, Reflecting Colorful Combinations of Alluring Materials and Trimmings of "Costumes.

IS the fluffy arrangement of tulle
over her shoulders designed to
imitate poised wings or does the
effect portend a new sleeve style? It
is said sleeves are soon to be much
larger. This (4417) is a very gay
and inconsequent little restaurant
dance frock, anyway, with its puffed1
tulle at the shoulders, its looped-up
panniers in the skirt, its frilly tulle
peplum escaping at the hips and its
new "pull-back" skirt and, yes, one
cannot avoid the impression its bus
tle! Peach-colored taffeta and flesh
colored tulle are combined, with sil
ver thread roses embroidered on the
peach taffeta.
Not a flounce nor a frill, not a bead,
not a wisp of lace has this new dance
frock which in the eyes o the
elect is decidedly smart and the very
last word in style. It is fashioned
of cherry red Chiffon velvet and here
and there over its surface with care
ful disregard for any suggestion of
regularity are fiattened-out roses
made of black satin. Like all the
smartest dancing frocks, this one has
a very short skirt, and the scalloped
hem is much used in , velvet dance
frocks of the season.
As though black chiffon velvet were
not beautiful enough in itself, fashion
is encrusting it this winter with em
broideries of sparkling beads. Here
(4605) is a restaurant dinner and
dance frock of black velvet with an
odd crystal embroidery in fan motifs,
the pattern increasing in size toward
th foot, where there is a rich border.
The V decolletage now must be very
deep to give the correct line and
usually the V is carried down over a
set-in modestie of matching or con
trasting fabric.
Maid's Apron More Vital
Than Gown of Mistress.
VUiitor Jadffn K n o w I e dl e of

TUB maid's apron at the front door
is more important than the gown
in which you enter the drawing room
to greet your guest. By the correct
appointment of your Abigail will your
visitor judge your knowledge of con
ventional standards, and not by the
frills and furbelowa of expensive type
that you yourself, are wearing.
The maid must be very neat and
very trim. Eer gownmust be dark
and exceedingly plain, her coiffure
and footwear properly sensible and in
perfect order. Her sleeves must reach
her wrists and should be finished off
with close, unrumpled cuffs of speck
less white. Her apron must be small
and rather saucy. The big white
apron has quite gone out; only nurse
maids wear -white aprons now, and
then only in the nursery never on
the street. The housemaid wears a
iiny apron, crisp and (dainty. -Its
chief requirement is a look of having
just come from the ministrations of
a hot flatiron.
The best dressed maids are wearing
Just now aprons of fine linen with
hemstitched hem, pockets and belt.
It more trimming is desired, there
may be a narrow edging of crochet
lace around the edge or a crochet in
sertion bisecting the apron. The
linen apron has more style and crisp
ness than other kinds, and maids
themselves like these aprons, since
linen may be ironed to look smooth
and lustrous without the bother of
adding starch.
Ths dainty little French shoes with
ribbon ties have had their day for
street wear, though they will be worn
all winter as house shoes and evening
shoes. A promenade out of doors now
demands footwear of autumn sem
blanceeither low-heeled tan leather
And with linen filet is the loveliest
lace.

Wonderful what a fan can do to add
emphasis to an evening gown! A very
simple black lace dinner gown with
looped sash of black satin is made the
most interesting costume in the room
by a huge red feather fan. The sim
ple blacjt gown is just the right foil
for that gorgeous red fan that you
simply cannot overlook.
Beads grow bigger and bigger in
Paris. Now they are the sise of
cherries; who knows when they will
be like plums? Paris restaurant ana
evening frocks are trimmed with
these large beads strung on colored
cords. The beads are held at inter
vals on the cords with tight, invisible
knots, and the beaded corda are used
as necklaces and in long loops here
and there amid draperies. '
Unless you are already supplied
with the knitted wool sport hose
which you intend to wear this win

Scoot fashion, over thinner stockings
of lisle or silk in the same shade. - AH
the bathing girls and camp girls wore
rolled-down stockings last summer
and the trig effect, they have de
cided, must be carried over through
the winter season; but of course
stockings roll ed down from . bare
knees would be a bit, well, chilly, on
January ice! Therefore the two pairs
of hose. Two pairs of stockings,
especially if the outer ones are of
Scotch 'wool, will mean more roomy
shoes if you hope to be comfortable
golfing, tramping, coasting or skat
ing this winter.
One pair of silk hose, however, is
quite enough -to please fashion when
it is a question of dancing slippers or
buttoned walking boots. Black silk
stockings are again fashionable and
one sees them in sheer lace patterned

THANKSGIVING RECIPES
GIVEN BY MISS TINGLE
Good Meats and How to Cook Them, if Turkey Is Too Expensive, Are
- Listed by Expert in Foodstuffs.

HE following remarks are Intend
ed particularly for the "beginning
housekeeper" and will serve to
answer many questions recently ad
dressed to me, for which there is no
roorai In the regular "answers to cor
respondents."
Deciding on the ThaDkifiTiMV Meat
In planning a Thanksgiving dinner.
naturally the "main course" is your
first care and will help to decide the
rest of the meaL 'And naturally you
think first of turkey.
But if .turkeys for Thanksgiving
roost too high" this year, what then?
Then what about roast chicken or
chicken pie? Chicken pie has the
double advantage of "stretching the
chicken to the utmost" while giving
plentiful "helpings" and it requires
little or no "last-minute" attention.
Or you 'may be fortunate enough to
have ducks or geese if you have no
turkey.
If poultry is out of the question a
prime roast of beef or a boned and
baked picnic ham or a nice leg of
mutton; or a roa&t of pork might be
chosen, . the latter of course being
best avoided if there are young chil
dren or persons of delicate digestion,
to be cons'dered. '
Pot Roost Might Do.
If these "choice" meats are too cost
ly, then a nice "chunky" pot roast,
well, boned and trussed. nicely
browned, first, then cooked long and
slowly, or a breast of lamb rolled,
steamed and then browned in a hot
oven, will give an appetizing meal;
or an inexpens've but nicely made
meat loaf may serve and be quite
delicious, too. '
But whatever kind of meat fthe
pocketbook and circumstances may
dictate, there should certainly be an
accompaniment of "dressing" (or
stuffing" if you prefer to call it 'so)
either in the meat itself or baked
separately as-an accompaniment; and
there must be plenty of good brown
(not pale gray) gravy and, of course,
the seasonal vegetables in plenty, all
nicely cooked.
Poor dressing and poor gravy may
Into practically all dressings. Use he
smaller quantity for turkey, chicken
and the lighter meats and the larger
with duck, goose or pork.
Chopped Parsley Is Good.
Chopped parsley (very finely chop
ped) Is good in any dressing using
from 1 teaspoon "to 1 tablespoon per
cup. Finely chopped celery leaf or
celery also is generally liked In about
the same proportion.
If sage is used be very careful not
to overdo it- It is such a strong fla
vor that it easily becomes too much
for delicate meats. You will have to
add it "to taste," I think. Remember
that freshly dried sage leaves, dried
crisp and rubbed to a powder (with
out any stems) give the best results
if fresh sage is available.
A minute amount of fresh dried
thyme gives a delicate and delicious
flavor but is also easily overdone.
The same may be said about minced
poultry spice a little may be good:
too much is horrid.
Other optional flavoriugs include
grated lemon rind ( to teaspoon
per cup); finely chopped green pepper
or pimento (1 to 2 tablespoons per
cup) ; a few graius of mace or cay
enne or powdered cloves.
Seasonings Salt and pepper and a
few drops of lemon juice (or of to
mato catsup) are of course, needed
for 'final seasoning,' 'and about as
mu'.h sugar as you use salt may be
found trseful, not as "sweetening," but
as "flavor developer."
' Tool. Mack Wettlnnr Bad.
Wetting What about wetting?
Tou.will not need to add any prob
ably, unless the dried crumbs are
used. Too much wetting makes
"soggy" dressing. If any is used, it
should be only enough to enable you
to gather up the dressing in a ball
so that it will, just hold together.
If it sticks to the bowl it is too
wet.
A little .beaten egg may be used if
tu c.r-s ir.g is wanted .o s!.c-3 oM.

cases the egg, tends to make Uie

Character ingredients If you don't
want a plain "savory or "herbal
dressing then omit any of the strong
est flavorings such as sage or poultry
spice, and add to the mildly but well-'
seasoned bread foundation and short
ening such -ingredients as chopped
walnuts, or' chopped peanuts (1 to 4
tablespoons full per cup), or cooked
mar (and too often, alas, do mar) the PPed chestnuts ( V4 to 1 cup to

well-seasoned dressing, full of "char
acter" and flayor and free from that
besetting sin of dressings "soggl
ness" will make the simplest din
ner memorable.
Bread Dressings.
To begin with the most frequently
made kind, dressings having a foun
dation of bread or bread crumbs, we
may consider two classes: (1) those
made with soaked bread; (2) those
made with crumbs. .
The soaked bread sort is perhaps
the quicker made; the "crumb" kind
is usually the lighter, and for poultry
is generally preferable.
If you use soaked bread never,
never be guilty of soaking it in hot
or Warm water, as the untrained
cook is-almost invariably impelled to
do by some perverse mysterious Influ
ence. That way "sogginess" lies. .
Dry Bread Should be" Soaked.
Instead, soak the dry bread (with
out breaking it up) in cold water
until fully swollen and sponge-like.
Then squeeze it as dry as possible
and beat it to a light and even tex
ture. Hot water makes it "stickier"
and harder to "beat light.
If dry crumbs are used for a foun
dation crush them with a rolling pin
or pass the brittle dry bread through
a meat chopper and sift so as to have
a light, even texture.
If fresh crumbs are used, as in
"superfine" poultry dressings, cut the
crusts from a two-day-old loaf, rub
the crumbs lightly between the hands
and pass .the fresh white crumbs
through a colander. Ccumbs like this
need no additional moisture. The cut
off crusts should he dried and used
for driedcrumbs. These fine white
crumbs make delicate and delicious
dressings but are not exactly eco
nomical. Quantities.
You can allow 2 or 3 tablespoons of
light beaten, soaked bread or fresh
crurrtbs for each person of ordinary
appetite; but you had better allow
more for growing boys, or for hun
gry men-folk.
For dry sifted crumbs allow about
two-thirds as much as of the fresh
crumbs or light beaten soaked bread.
Shortening.
For every cup of bread thus esti
mated allow 1 to 2 tablespoons short
ening, the smaller quantity if such a
fat as crisco or salad oil is used, the
larger if butter, bacon fat or dripping
should be chosen.
Bacon fat or tried out salt pork fat
are particularly good for dressings
and chopped "crisped" bacon or salt
pork makes a good savor- addition to
a dressing.
Klavorings.
Finely chopped onions or onion
juice to the amount of from 1 tea
spoon to 2 tablespoons to every cup
of bread (according to -personal taste
and the kind of meat used) will go

or chopped hard boiled egg, (about

Some housewives like a few raisins
in their poultry or meat dressings
(especially if they have Scandinavian
culinary traditions in the family)
and others like a little chopped ap
pie, chopped pickle to give piquancy
to a plain savory bread dressing
either with, or without herbs.
Season It to Taste.
In any case, taste it. and season it
until it "tastes good," and then,- if
the stuffing s to be put into the
interior of poultry or into a roll of
meat, add a little more salt etc., than
if it is to be baked in a well greased
baking dish, since the meat will tend
to diminish and absorb the saltiness.
Don't stuff meat or poultry too
tightly. That way also lies sogginess.
Bake a separate dish of dressing
(covered with buttered crumbs) so
as to have enough without over
crowding the bird.
The gravy Next if you roast the
bird or the meat in the oven don't
use water iu basting the roast. That
way airo- lies sogginess of meat and
of dressing and pale gravy.
Instead, see to it that there is
enough fat in the pan for basting,
and, if possible, let the bird or meat
rest on a little wire rack above the
fat. Baste often with the fat. dur
ing the first half hour or 20 minutes,
while the outside is searing in the
hot oven, then cover the roast and re
duce the heat, so that the bird or meat
will cook slowly in an oven temper
ature that cannot possibly burn the
fat or make it "sputter," even though
there ia no water added.
Then you will not have to "baste
frequently," but be sure not to hurry
the roast. Give it time and gentle
heat until tender, then remove the.
top of the roaster during the last
part of the cooking, (or open the
roaster valve if you have a valve
roaster) and slightly Increase the
heat to give just the right brown.
Pat Clean Fat in Pan.
In the pan there should then Ce
the browned (but not burned) "glaze"
or roast meat juice and clear not
overheated fat, but practically no
watery juice.
Keep the roast hot in the oven;
pour off all the fat except what you
need for gravy (allowing about 1 to
Ihi tablespoons fat for each cup of
gravy desired. To the remaining fat
and browned juice, add 1 to 14 level
tablespoons flour for each cup gravy
wanted, with teaspoon salt. Stir
quickly over the fire, then add the
desired number of cups of cool or cold
stock from bones or giblets) or of
water if no " stock is available, and
stir until brown and smooth. Sea
son with salt, pepper (careful with
that pepper and a- few drops lemon
juice, strain, if necessary, and add
chopped giblets if you are making
glblet gravy. t
If the juice in the pan is not suf
ficiently brown "reduce it to a glaze"
by. boiling down rapidly directly over
the fire, then proceed as above.
Another way that the beginner
sometimes finds easier is to dissolve
the browned "glaze" (or meat juice)
in hot water, or hot stock, boiling up
first and then adding the thickening
(mixed smooth in cold water) then
boiling until it thickens.

still has trouble with her brown
