4 TTTE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, AUGUST 21, 1921 STRAIGHT LINES, SIMPLE EFFECTS AND SHORT SLEEVES MAKE SILK DRESSES COOL THIS YEAR Dog-day Fabrics Are Linen and Silk, for Nothing Is Found More Comfortable to Wear Wool Sport Skirta and Most of Ginghams Retire to Cover During Warmest Part f Summer. CSl Jfr 2?fs, BOUT the first of August fashion gets down to the real business keeping cool. Comfort through the depressing dog-day weather is more important to most women than smartness and when the mercury climbs to 90 and the humid ity eoars nobody knows where or cares to ask, because just to feel it Is enough! there is apt to be a sad slump in what the French are pleased to call "chic." That is, there would be a sad slump if fashion did not see to it that the coolest and most com fortable clothes are right at hand; and that these clothes manage to be smart. Wool sport ekirts retire to cover during dog-day weather; so do wool sweaters. So do most of the ging hams; for gingham is not an ideal fabric for a close, muggy day. All the hotel verandas, and the beaches and boardwalks blossom out with sheer and diaphanous costumes in those pale tints which do not offend the eye on . blazing morning when the 6ea is glassy and the sand bums the soles of one's feet. Sport hats Acquire wide and shady brims and nobtdy has on an ounce of fabric more than la necessary to cover herself decevtly. The dog-day fabrics are linen and ilk. Nothing is cooler or more com fortable to wear even the diaphanous-looking organdies. An organdy scon wilts and grows limp anyway on a. hot, humid day and can only be donned late in the afternoon when a sea turn occurs. A sea turn, you know, is that grateful breeze that blows from the southeast over the water when the tide is coming in. Along the New England coast there is almost always a sea turn some time dn the afternoon later or earlier, ac cording to the movement of the tide. But for the torrid hours of the day one selects linen or silk. Silk sport suits, including hat and hosiery, weigh an incredibly little amount. The sport coat is worn over a sleeveless guimpe of handkerchief linen or georgette and the sport ekirt is just two breadths of thin silk gath ered to a waistband, under this ex tremely cool costume go a handful of garments; a little chemise, knick ers, a wisp of camisole anda soft silk petticoat. The corset is a girdle af fair and very elim women on a hot day discard the corset altogether and wear a close bandeau or brassiere directly over the chemise. Could any thing be cooler? Only one thing; a straight line frock of linen with which one may get along without a petti coat because the linen frock does not how through." Even a frock of heavy linen is cool because every thing but chemise, knicker nd ban deau may be discarded under It. Loose Lines CooleHt. To you remember those awful um mors when we wore tight waistbands ? i Fashion has discovered how much! cooler It is to go dressed like the kiddies in loose straight garments; let us all hope she sticks to the agreeable mode, at least for dog-day season! The one-piece midsummer frock Is the coolest thing imaginable end under it the corset may be worn as Iocmio as a dressing eacque in finitely cooler than a snugly drawn la arrangement. From an authorita tive little shop just off Fifth avenue comes this delectable frock for a mid summer morning; it is itrade of flesh tinted voile snd Is perfectly straight from shoulder to hem, with short Vimono sleeves ami a sash of lbs voile urn Mjiyiii m pjnPMMUuuimmniiinai.,1 v .-..v---. ., : V ' i f ' : '. i '' :5s I I, ' .

This is the summer of sleeveless slipovers and If yon happen to be in town you cam pick up wonderful bargains in slipovers that have been left in stock, because early shoppers did not realize how smart and popu lar these models were going to be with midsummer. The gruimpe worn with it may be low-necked and elbow sleeved, or have long- sleeves with cuffs; and tho guimpe may be laun dered many times before the slipover frock needs attention. Some of the slipovers are perfectly straight from shoulder to hem. drawn in with a sash or a leather belt; but the best models are shaped a bit at shoulder seam, and under-arm seam, and full ness is added at the bust by slash ing the front at the armhole and pushing: in the fabric in slight gathers below the slash. As the dog-days wax and wane. lighter colors are noted in these linen slipovers and in all summer frocks. Pale pinks, faint lilacs and lavenders. deUcate green and cool blue replace thF vivid shades that dominated the early summer; and there seem to be an amazing number of all-white cos tumes. Most women have in reserve something cool and dainty in color for the inevitable hot spell in mid summer, and these pale tints are very grateful to the eye of the beholder. Appear also, at this season, lovely affairs witl tucked skirts, soft sashes and waists trimmed only with a bit of Irish or crochet edging on collar and cuff. Every woman should pos sess at least one of these delight ful frocks for wear on hot mid-summer mornings, Duce Frock Mostly of Sflk. The mid-summer dance frocks are not, as one might suppose, of dia phanous fabrics chiffons or organ dies, or tulle, or lace. They are mostly of silk and the silk is mostly canton crepe. The coolness lies in tho way thy are made; straight and simple to a degree, with girlish, rounded-out necks and little sleeves, asd the very short skirt falling softly from a loosely tied sash. A sweet little dance- frock, of the sort Is of whits canton crepe with the neckline merely coraea ana tne eaori biccyb trimmed with white silk fringe. Four rows of tho fringe trim ths skirt and instead of a sash there is aj narrow belt with buckles where the. belt stops at either side of a front panel that extends from neckline to hern. Every daytime frock Is accom panied by a hat and hats aTe worn even at breakfast at the fashionable summer hotels. Of course, one must have a great many hats and the ones most popular now are shady, broad trimmed models of light straw trimmed with angora yarn, or of organdy with huge organdy floweTS. This (7S2) is all of silk skirt and jacket, hat and hosiery. And very likely her undergarments, too. The whole costume weighs tho least pos sible amount and is pleasantly cool and comfortable for a mid-summer day. The jacket is made of cool, green silk crepe and the simple skirt in ths same material, in purs, white. A sleeveless guimpe of the white silk takes the place of a blouse under the jacket. The hat is of orange taffeta with green and white trim-1 ming. There is nothing cooler than linen and this engaging frock for atorrid afternoon (7814) is of sheer hand kerchief linen in pale pink over an underslip of pale blue Chinese silk. The ribbon sash, in faint heliotrope shade, matches the tone produced by pale pink over pale blue. The ab sence of detail, extreme simplicity of line and total Uck of fussiness make this lovely little frock look as cool as it is. An airy black hat wreathed with heliotrope accompanies the pretty frock. Almost any girl could fashion this dainty dress (6587) for herself, yet the model is the creation of a great designer. A single length of flesh pink voile, slashed out for a neck opening forms the waist, front and back panels and sleeves. The sides of the skirt are in two flounces, the lower gathered to the upper. Hand hemstitching easy to do on fine voile malces the only trimming. The sash is of flesh pink and faint laven der voile and is fringed at ths ends. v PORTLAXD. Or.. July 10. Dear Misa Ting'a: Can you give me directions for making the dried tomato paste used in making many Italian dishes? Thanking you in advance. MRS. S. G. I hope the following is what you want: ITALIAN tomato paste or tomato conserve Boil red, ripe, sound to matoes until soft, and pass through a sieve to remove seeds and skin6. Boil down quickly to the consistency of thick catsup. . Then place on the back of the stove or in a double boiler over the gas stmmerer, and cook down more slowly until as thick as peanut butter. It may then be finished in either of two ways: (1) Pack not into cans and sterilize 1 hour In a wash boiler; or. if preferred (2), spread on oiled platters and let dry until leathery, then wrap in paraffine paper and Btore In tin boxes. This plain, unflavored. pulp is most useful for making soups and sauces and for using with rice, macaroni or spaghetti. A single spoontul or a lit tle bit of paste may be used to give "body" and flavor to many other savory dishes. The Italians use great quantities of this paste. The real Italian paste often is fla vored by adding a little garlic and a few sweet peppers. A little oil beaten into ths paste before packing into cans is said to improve texture, flavor and keeping qualities. The dried pasta is a good way of saving a large num ber of tomatoes when cans are scarce or very expensive. HTTBBARD. Or., July 10. Miss Lillian Ttng-le: Cn you tli me where to get candy-making supplies? I refer to the i utensils for making at home on a small , scale. All that the farm catalogues hav ad vertised is thermometers. Do you have booklets ot good practical recipes for candy? Thanking you for an early reply. MRS. C. M. All you really need is a good dou ble boiler of suitable size, a candy thermometer, a large platfer or mar ble slab for candies that have to be worked, and tins of suitable size for candies that are to be cooled and cut into squares. A spatula is helpful, and a wooden spoon or whittled paddle for stirring. Tou probably have a Ladd egg beater for egg whites and beaten candies. Tou need paraffine paper for wrapping "ohewy," or hard candies or caramels. For making chocolates- some small boards covered with strips of oilcloth are useful, though an inverted platter can be used. You need also a shallow earthenware bowl for warming and beating the chocolate. If you want to mould centers in cornstarch, you can make or buy moulds, but you will find this not worth while the unmoulded centers are so much better. So you see the thermometer is probably the only thing you need to buy. This can be obtained at any large hardware store in Portland, or your local store could order one for you. They cost from $1 to t2 and should last a lifetime. I have no special candy booklet. Many candy recipes and articles ap pear from time to time in this column. You probably can obtain a book on candy making from the state library. Two useful home candy books are "Candies and How to Make Them," by Marion Neil, and "The Candy Book," by Alice Bradley. A few prac tical lessons are "desirable to give you an idea of good technique in candy making, which cannot be obtained from recipes. HALSET, Or.. July 13.

Will you please advise me? ' I feel that this letter la Juat one of a series of letters you may receive on the same subject. Thanking ou very much for your kind ness. . D- B. M. "Cooking for Two," by Janet M. Hill, is useful for ' a beginner. This gives many useful "typo recipes" in small amount, and Illustrates the general principles of good cooking in the manner most practical for a bride. The Boston Cooking School Cook Book, by Fanny Farmer, is a thor oughly sound, practical book, with a large variety of recipes in family quantities. No cook book ever has been writ ten that exactly corresponds to your description. The best plan is to con quer the "rudiments" first and then go 4n for the ""varied" reclpos. I shall be glad to give you any help I can in this column. young. The turnips should be peeled and cut into slices or diced or cut in small pieces, according to age. All vegetables for canning should be young, sound and freshly gathered. The new potatoes should be fresh-dug and very small and well scraped. Blanch by plunging into boiling wa ter for one to five minutes, depend ing on size and texture; pack into clean jars and fill up with brine made with two to three tablespoons salt to one gallon hot water. Use two tablespoons salt for peas- and three tablespoons for the other vege tables. Except for the potatoes, the addition of a little vinegar makes keeping easier. For peas use 10 tablespoons strong vinegar, to one gallon brine. For the other vegetables use eight tablespoons vinegar to one gallon brine. Adjust the lids not quite tight after filling up the jars. Set on a rack in a wash boiler. Boil two hours if vinegar has been used in the brine, or five hours if salt only is used, counting from the time boiling begins. Another plan, which is sometimes preferable to the long boiling, is to sterilize one hour on three to five successive days. This sometimes gives a more attractive product than does the longer one-period steriliza tion.' No vinegar is needed If this latter method is followed. Spiced Pickled Beets Grade the beets as to size. Very small ones may be pickled whole, larger beets should be sliced or cut into fancy shapes after cooking. Wash care fully, avoiding breaking the skin. Do not cut the tops too close. Cook in boiling water until tender, then skin, cut up (if necessary) and - place in jars. Prepare the pickling vinegar in the proportions of two cups sugar and two tablespoons mixed pickling spice, to each quart of vinegar. Bring to boiling point. Boil five minutes. Pour the hot vinegar over the beets and seal at once. If a strongly spiced pickle is liked the spices after boiling may be dis tributed among the jars. If only a faint spicy flavor is wanted the spice may be boiled in a cheesecloth bag and removed, when the vinegar is hot. that just loops over and falls in fringed ends. A single length of the voile, slashed out in a rounded neck opening, makes the waist, sleeves and front and back skirt panels.

Dear Miss Tingle: Will you -please tell me through The Sunday Oreg-onian if new potatoes and green peas ean. be canned together? Also can young carrots, turnips and cab bage be canned and how long should each be boiled? Would also like to know how to pickle beets using spices. 1 am a young housekeeper and get much, benefit from your column. Thanking you. MRS. M. A. M. PosBHly you might can the pot toes and peas together; but you might also spoil them. If you are inexperi enced you would do better to can each separately. All the vegetable you mention should be prepared as for the table. The cabbage should be shredded, the carrots scraped and eUced, If large, or left whole if very CAM A 5. Wash.. July 9. Dear Mis Tingle: Will you please help me through the following difficulty? In putting to gether ingredients for cake, where the egg whites are to be folded in, I invariably meet with the same result. All goes well nd the mixture stands tip beautifully until I catitiouely approach with a spoon ful of stiffly beaten white and gently give fold or two. when lo: the mixture sud denly collapaes into a ropy stringy mass. Ples.,tell the cause and remedy. Relatives in an eastern state will bold family reunion in September. Will you kindly suggest something appropriate for me to make and send by parrel prvt a contribution fqr their dinner? Gratefully yours. A. A. It is possible that you do not beat your egg whites quite stiff enough The addition of a little sugar to the whites also tends to make them stand up better. Beat the egg whites until you can make a firm, clear cut with a knife; then add about 1 table spoons sugar for each egg white (re serving this sugar after measuring) and beating slightly until the mcr ingua. is glossy. The egg white and the cake mixtures will then be of about the same stiffness and can be more easily folded together than if there is the usual difference between them. "Fold" the mixture together carefully, but do not stir. By stirring you can so change the texture of the mixture that it may become thin enough to make you inclined to add more flour a fatal mistake. (2) I should think a good fruit cake would be very acceptable and would keep and travel easily. Or you might find a secure way to pack some loganberry Jelly or juice and strawberry or cherry preserves as characteristic Oregon dolicaciea. Or you might tend a large box of candied cherries, apple ginger, stuffed prunes and peach or apricot French fruit paste, which probably would be very acceptable. NEW PURSE FOR GOLF GIRL IS .

Very sweet commercial pickles are sometimes sweetened with saccharin but this Is not very wholesome and is not advisable for family use. It is possible by the method suggested July 24 to produce pickles of excel lent quality.

I cannot possibly give the cocoa nut macaroon recipe used by your particular bakery. It would be best to buy both the crackerjack and the macaroons, if you really prefer the commercial kind. There would be little or no financial saving in mak ing them at home (if your time is worth anything), and you may not have the necessary "knack" for mak ing them superior to the commercial kind. Recipes for several different types of cocoanut macaroons have been given very recently In this column. Vou can obtain a copy of the paper containing them at the business office of The Oregonian, but I cannot re peat the recipes until the time limit has expired.

(1) It would .probably be wise to add an extra hour for the two-quart jars, as the heat does not penetrate so easily. (2) Presumably tho container of the water-glassed eggs was not tight fit ting, and as you say too strong a solution was used there has been a more than normal concentration by evaporation. This, however, does not necessarily injure the eggs. Use them if they are good and free from un pleasant taste or odor. POftTLAXt. Or.. July 2S.

I am sorry to disappoint you, but it is never possible for me to send recipes or personal replies. Directions for preparing spiced peaches have been published since your letter was written. I hope you saw them. It is much safer to pack the peaches in small sealed jars. They may be kept in a crock but are much more "chancy" in keeping. There is too wide a range in cakes and frostings for me to guess what kind of caramel cake you have eaten. Caramel syrup may be used to flavor almost any cake mixture and any type of frosting, with or without egg-white or egg-yolk, with or with out butter or cream, with or without gelatine or gum. Probably the "jealously guarded" recipe is a very ordinary one (Joalously guarded reci pes usually are) and the excellence of the cake depends more upon tech nique than anything else (as most excellent cakes usually do). A large number of caramel cake recipes have appeared in this column and cannot be repeated at present. If you can give me details as to color, texture, richness and probable type of cake icing, I will try to give an other recipe as soon as the time limit expires.
