In Manhattan, whether you belong to a select social circle which is always giving parties, or not, you can always wear full evening drees when you feel partyish. A well-dressed crowd, fun, laughter, brilliant lights, a party supper and dancing, are always to be had in the I gay restaurants of the town, and two or three couples can make a little party all their own and snap their fingers at folk who have formal in vitations to big private dances. Like the young man in the Limerick verse: they needn't feel slighted But can go to the party And emt Just ah hearty As If they'd been really invited. Perhaps it is this great throng of socially unattached couples who dwell, not in established homes, but In the city's vast apartment houses, - who have established the precedent of full-dress gaiety in the restau rants. It is easier, and less expensive when you live in an apartment, to Invite a dozen friends to a restau rant supper and dance than it is to turn your own quarters upside down, "hire florist, caterer and musicians, end give a dan,ce at home. The music, the flowers, the eupper and the gen eral air of festivity are all ready to your hand in a big: restaurant. All you have to do Is to don your best clothes, summon a taxi and set forth to the party. Semi-Formal Dress Is Best. Hestaurant dance costumes, how ever, are not so formal as costumes demanded for a large private enter tainment. Most women prefer to wear dance frocks with less pronounced decolletage than would be correct in an opera costume or in the grand toilette for a formal reception and dance at a private house. Neither does one feel the same necessity for extreme formality In details of the costume, like coiffure, gloves and footwear. Hats and street wraps are frequently left in the cloak room, and the light restaurant dance frock may be accompanied by dark stockings and slippers that have walked to the party. At only the most exclusive and ex pensive restaurants are you likely to see all the full regalia of formal . evening dress the long gloves, wav Ing feather fans, jewels, delicate slippers and piled up hair arrange ment that bespeak an equipage, and no Journey by pavement or pnblic conveyance. And these elaborate full dress costumes have probably shown themselves first at the opera or at some private reception before ending the evening at a restaurant supper and dance. But it Is all very gay and very fascinating, and the restaurant supper-dances are one of the things you must see if you are a stranger in New York, picking up impressions. Velvet Frocks Are Simple. The straight, chemise frocks of chiffon velvet are the hit of the sea- eon and are especially indorsed by Paris. Any woman with an. ounce of Ingenuity could manufacture one of these little dresses for herself, for they are nothing but straight lengths of velvet, seamed up at tb 8!de and rounded out at the neck, 'with the fastenings on the shoulders. The sleeves' are cut all In one with the frock, kimono style, and are very short. A sash of some sort draws in the straight lines of the velvet frock at a low waistline ana there you ure. Some of these frocks are per - fectly plain; others are embroidered with beads, or trimmed with metal braid or lace around neck and sleeve edge. Certain Frenchy models have flattened out roses made of satin appliques to the frock here and there rich fabric show itself off. Of a marked simplicity are some of the restaurant dancing frocks of chiffon velvet. This one 9152) is white, with a scalloped hem and neckline as plain as you might look for on a- night gown. Color and dash are provided fthe sash of watermelon pink tulle ith a deal f sparkling bead emr brlidery In Iridescent beads on the ends. Wonderfully graceful is this dance frock (5025), with a three-layer skirt ofpalest green silk net, each flounce nd the wide tulle sash picot edged In ilver threads. Loops of silver braid on which are sewed tiny roses catch up the outer net tunic here and there nd the decolletage is edged with hinestones. Not a small item in the smartness of this costume is the feather fan made of a single splendid plume in vivid emerald green shade. Gray is very fashionable this sea son and some of the loveliest restau rant dance frocks are in pearl gray tint always exquisite on a 'young woman because of its suggestion of dainty demureness. There is no dash in gray, but it makes up In charm! This sweet little gray frock (3238) combines pearl tinted taffeta and georgette and the tunic is-straight as chemise from chest to knee, except that pastel tinted silk roses catch the fabric here and there to a fitted, gir dle underneath. PORTTLANID. Or.. Nov. 10. Will you please repeat a recipe you save nme years ago for a "Norwegian honey cake" that will keep well 7 I used the reclps several times with great success, but seem to have lost it Thanking you MRS. P. D. W. HOPE the following is the recipe you want. It was given to me by Norwegian lady some years ago, and was. I think, printed In this column. The cake improves with keeping, and with reasonable care will keep even as much as three months. Norwegian Honey Cake (Mrs. E. N. C.) Three eggs, one pound flour (four cups measured and leveled after the flour is once sifted), one pound light brown sugar sifted to free it from lumps (usually one pint level), one pint strained honey, teaspoon soda, teaspoon salt, vanilla or cardamon- flavoring to taste. Wrm the honey a little and beat It with the sugar. When cool and beaten light beat in the yolks, then fold in alter nately the flour sifted with the soda na the stiff-beaten white beaten with the salt, and add flavoring to taste. Bake in loaf pans, lined with greased paper. The pans should be prepared before the cake is mixed. Do not remove the paper after bak ing, as it aids the kppDlnir of tin cake. The cake is a little drv at irst, but becomes moister on keep- ng. with studied disregard for regularity of arrangement, the roses increasing in size toward the foot of the cos tume. For example, a Bernard frock of cherry-colored chiffon, velvet, cut in simple kimono style and drawn in with a narrow sash of the velvet, has flat black satin roses, about the size of a silver dollar on the shoulder, considerably larger at the hip and almost the size of saucers at the hem. The satin roses seem to have been flung at the frock and sewed fast where they happened to light. But the effect is exceedingly, smart. The velvet frock has the new scal loped hem; not rounded scallops but sharp Vandyke points wdth right angled edges of about three inches to a point, and the skirt is very short. Another chiffon -velvet model, in white, with a sash of shaded rose, tulle brilliantly embroidered with iri descent beads, has also this scal loped hem. The rounded neckline is perfectly plain and the edge of the short ""kimono sleeve also. The scal loped hem is made by laying a rather deep facing on the right side of the skirt, cutting out Vandyke points in skirt and facing, seaming the points together and then turning the facing over to the wrong side where its top is hemmed to the skirt in the ordi nary way. Gray Dance Frocks Elackantlns;. There is no dash about a pale gray frock, but it makes up in charm. Every pretty girl knows she Is per fectly Irresistible in pearl gray with that appealing demureness and sweet ness which the masculine heart never seems able to resist. The peart gray dance frocks of the season are pret tiest of all. - Some of them are -of chiffon, with fluttering pleated flounces all the way up the skirt. Some are of silk, net, with deTicat picot edging of silver thread on over lapping flounces. Some are of geor gette with embroidery of white beads. And some are of taffeta. Very dainty and sweet is a dance frock of pearl gray taffeta and georgette. There is a drapery of georgette over th shoulders, forming a square neck and very short sleeves.' From this dropped, at the edge of the square neckline, a straight tunic of pearl gray taffeta with a deep hem o gray georgette. This tunic . fall about to the knee over a narrow gray taffeta skirt-with a deep georgett hem. At the waistline the straight tunic is caught back toward either side in careless pleats, each pleat held down by a mauve silk rose. And a feather fan in deep mauve empha sizes the exquisite pale shade of the costume. The saucy bustle drapery is for ever asserting itself and here it again in looped up draperies of tulle, pretending to be exaggerated sash bows. A restaurant dance frock pcoquettish type is of silver embroi dered peach tinted taffeta, the front of the skirt draped over the hip an at the hem pulled back under a panel of draped tulle that puffs itself ou into one of the gay aashbows that suggest a bustle. This- frock has also odd sleeve puffs or rather shoulde puffs of tulle that spread out over the arm from the shoulder straps of the bodice like minature wings. A velvet frock can be simple, as no inexpensive tub frock would dare to be; and the simpler the style of velvet costume, the .better does th DEAR MISS TINOLE Would vou nut recipe for your news columns for glazing irunt witi your recipe flo for prunes? If not. will you give me one for ni-unen? am very anxious to use this renin, verv soon, so I would appreciate it if you would vui l m very soon. M. B. I do not quite understand what you mean by "glazing fruit." Do vou mean the French or Californian glace fruit" that comes In fancv dec orated boxes. If so, as the process is too long to be given in detail in this column. I suggest that you con sult a book called, I think, "Preserv ing and Candying Fruits," by -Wagner, which is (or used to e) obtain able in the Portland public library. think, however, that you would be wiser, if you are planning to do the fruit at home, to make the simpler candied fruits" rather than the eiace kind. Directions for the former have been given frequently in this column. If you need the directions and have not seen them, please write again. It you mean the kind of "glazed fruit" that is inclosed in a sort of shell of hard brittle candy, the fol lowing is the method. This requires a little knack and skill. 'as the syrup may "candy" instead of glaze in un- killed handsT and the fruits in this climate will not keep more than 24 hours without becoming soft and sticky or candying; hence, they must be freshly made before serving in individual paper cases. Glazed fruit Prepare the fresh or canned fruit a little in advance, ar ranging, it on a plate so that the surface may dry before-dipping. Have ready oiled platters or oiled oilcloth covered boards to receive the dipped fruit. Make a syrup with two .parts sugar, one part glucose and one part water. Boil to the "dark barley sugar" or "very light caramel" stage (be careful not to get too deep coloir a deep straw color is about right). Set the pan at once in hot water to keep the temperature even and dip the surface-dried fruits or pieces of fruit, one at a time' into the caramelized -syrup, using a fork or pair of sugar tongs, and dropping on the oiled platter to harden. Serve fresh made in individual paper cases. NOV. 9, 1920. Dear Miss Tingle Will you kindly give, through columns of Sun day tregonian, a menu for a weaning breakfast to the served at an at-home af fair? Gratefully yours. MRS. 8. S. I fear I cannot be of mueh practical help to you, as I do not know your preferences or skill and resources for the cooking and serving of the meal. Is it really a "breakfast," or is it, like most "wedding breakfasts. really a luncheon? Can you seat all your guests at table or will it be buffet meal? Will it be necessary to prepare most of the food in advance or is there plenty of help in the kitchen? Is it to be a large party or a small one? These and many other points need to be considered in plan ning a menu that will be really prac tical. The following, therefore, is merely suggestive: Grapefruit (or orange and grape fruit) cocktail, chicken croquettes. peas. Duchess potatoes, Waldorf salad (thousand island dressing), wedding cake, ice cream, coffee. This Is assuming that the "break fast" is really -a luncheon. White chrysanthemums would make charming table decoration. PORTLAND. Or.. Nov. 2. 1920.

It May be slightly colored at the last (in about 12 to 15 minutes) if desired; but the oven must not be hot enough to make the meringue "rise" in the very least, or it will fall, tougher and probably "weep." With a little atten tion to detail meringue-making is very easy,, but it is necessary to learn to recognize the correct oven tempera ture. ASTORIA, Or., Sept. 3, 1930.

Dear Miss Tingie: Would you please tell me how to make pie meringue so it isn't runnyr MRS. 3. Tour letter has had to wait for i renlv until the "time limit" has ex Dlred. since directions for meringue have been given so frequently in this column. Meringue for pies Do not attempt a "covering meringue" for a medium sized pie with less than two egg whites. Three are better. A very thlnlv-soread meringue is almost sure to be either "runny" or tough. If only one white can be afforded, use It as a "decoration" rather than a cover, putting it on with a paper tube and having it about -inch thick, in scroll or wreath effect. Add to the two or three egg whites (free from the slightest speck of yellow) about 1-8 level teaspoon salt and cream of tartar. Beat with a laddie egg-beater. until you can make a clean cut with a knife, then add 1 to 1 tablespoons sugar for each egg white and beat until firm and glossy. Usually only one or two turns of the egg-beater will be enough for this. "Runny" me- with t:htle powder to taste, until you have learned he strength of the par ticular brand you are using. If very . hot tamales are - wanted, more chile powder and a little cayenne or tabasco may be added. Add Itt cups concentrated chicken broth and boll until the sauce is thick and smooth. Add a little tomato catsup or tomato paste if desired. If a little garlic flavor is liked, cook J clove garlic (cut or bruised) 5 to 10 minutes in tne sauce: then remove it. cseason m taste with salt. Have ready a dozen pitted ripe olives, or stuffed olives, as preferred, and a hard-boiled egg, sliced. Have ready, also, about 6 dozen dried green corn husks, soaked In tepid water until pliable. irun and dry them in a cloth. Mix tne chopped meat with enougn or tne sauce to season and bind it. Form into finger-length rolls with an olive and a bit of egg in the middle; place each on a leaf with a little sauce and mush, then fold in other leaves with little mush and sauce between eacn. rolling up and tying very tightly at each end. Then steam or cook In boil ing water (or in broth made from the chicken bones and skin) for two hours, teerve hot, with or without additional sauce. The flavoring ana seasoning may be varied to suit per sonal taste. If no corn husks are available, make Individual "tamale loaves" by lining small custard cups with the scalded corn meal, filling with the meat mixture, sauce, olives and egg. and covering with a layer of mush. Put on a greased paper cap (to keep out the condensed steam) and steam two hours. Turn out, or serve In the cups as preferred, with or without additional sauce or wiht plain tomato sauce flavored with chile.
