Now, we'll admit that a writer on household subjects some times wanders far afield, from potatoes and gravy. How much more simple it would be to write every day about how to broil a chop and mash a potato just a plain potato. And how many readers would we attract two days In suc cession? i : : We wonder If this same lady (and we admire her for her frankness) weald read the same book ever, or to to fhe same picture shew time after time. We also wonder hew she enjoys films and books which deal only with those things she knows Intimately, and gives no reference te the strange mysteries above her own level ef life. . Sure, we can talk about things we always have In our kitchen, but life as a writer would be very dull. Our object in writing on subjects, which vary as much as our ability will allow, is to '.make life more interesting for ourselves and for those readers i who bear with us. j I We like te keep house, like to eat and enjoy life. Writing aboat foods and household subjects not only furnishes amuse ment and test for knowing more It also provided a reasonably . comfortable salary. Ne enthusiastic writer on food subjects could be lukewarm toward the subject en which she writes. Yoa'vl got to be hungry to enjoy a meal. We have said It before, we repeat It again. Women who like to experiment in the kitchen, who like to read about what others do in their homes and who find pleasure in the act of being l a housewife will pretty generally be found to be the better home i makers. " -j .j - " Those women who want to cook only what has been In their i kitchens for the past 20 years may be able to roast a leg of pork to a f turn, and fry excellent hotcakes, but we'll bet they aren't too happy In their work. ! Get together a group of plump, red cheeked happy people, (men and women) and start talking food. You'll find how many . find enjoyment in preparation of food, and the eating of It If you believe that cooking is a lost art and that intelligent folk aren't interested Just talk around a little. Incidentally, those women who want these columns to deal only with familiar dishes may be shocked to find that we moderns ; believe that a . chop should be cooked much farther away from the source of heat and slower than used to be. I i Even the chop must bow to progress. ff ' C ( Guaranteed s Demonstrator WO. SINGER SEWING CENTER 130 N. Com'I. I Ohm tnr flraa Ww&T Handbag Fashions for Wool Outfits Made at Home, a Smart Accessory By Mrs. Genevieve Smith Handbag fashions for wool outfits today favor your budget if you are a home sewer. Easiest to , . .. make are the ' soft bags, the feed bag with Its drawstring handle. The en velope ; with slide fastener closure, and the soft bag that is gaihered into a handle. Such handles are available in many different Mrs. Smith designs in the needlework de partments as a rule. Box bags, very important fashionwise, call for a bit more tailoring skill, plus a good stiffening. All of these are especially effective in the soft tweeds and novelty checks: Fashion books abound with designs for small hats, which are often a smartly effective touch E art. Terry Shepherd and Otha Rouse were in charge of the gifts. After a wedding trip to San Francisco the newlyweds will be at home on a farm near Inde pendence. For traveling the bride changed to a navy blue and grey wool ensemble with grey jacket and navy hat and accessories.

MUSIC when made of the same material as. a suit. In choosing your fabric for that spring suit, consider these two accessories then check the yardage they require, so that you can be sure of getting the same dye lot by buying all your ma terial at the same time. On the' other hand, you may get a readymade belt that will give your costume a contrasting fillip that is smarter than a belt of self fabric. The popularity of separates has thrown the spotlight on novelty belts. Leathers, polished or dull calf and patent, ate cut out in beau tiful openwork patterns. All sorts of decoration, from metal studding to various kinds of beading, are used. Most of these are shaped, in conformance to current fashions and for better fit and comfort. You also will find that many stores have co ordinated these belts with other accessories, notably footwear and handbags. Also hats and hat trims, mostly in patent.
