Little girls of today can have that charming, old-fashioned look
when they don dresses like this. Tunic overskirts of Schiffli eyelet

making them easy to care for and lastingly pretty to wear. Black
eyelets, ruffLes and sash are featured on dress (left); pink eyelet
(right) has pleated bodice, cap sleeves and back sash.

Ancient Methods Used in Egg Decor
If you'd be really up to date
on decorating Easter eggs, take
a page out of history, says Mrs.
C. R. (Velma) Mitchell, Lane
extension agent.
Methods developed by the an
cient Greeks, Persians, and Ro
mans, who ornamented eggs to
celebrate the coming of apring,

"In many European countries,
decorating Easter Eggs has be
come a highly developed art,"
Mra. Mitchell says. "The wom
en spend days ornamenting
eggs with brilliantly colored
floral and geometric designs be
lieved to be the same the an
cient Persians used." -
Nor is their work In vain,
she added. Many eggs are treas
ured as equisite pieces of art.
In north England, Easter eggs
bearing names and dates often
generations old are admitted
on a par with records in the
family Bible and tombstones as
Court evidence.
Two Pen Women
Win Top Honors
Two members of Eugene
branch of National League of
American Pen Women won na
tional awards in the annual con
tests for writers sponsored by
NLAPW.
Marg Blood (Mrs. Raymond)
of Lowell won first prize in the
published short story division
for her "The Eighth and Only
Child," which appeared in a
magazine for teen-agers called
Ingenue, and was later bought
and used by Revue for an epi
sode In the Wagon Train series
on television.
Cora Hawkins (Mrs. Lon) won
a second award in the junior
story division with a story called
"God's Little Boy."
Principal among methods for
glamorizing the egg are "batik
ing," the agent said. By alter
nately dipping the egg in wax,
scraping away portions, dipping
in dye, then by repeating the
series of steps again and again,
the most intricate designs and
color combinations can be
achieved.
To create a Moravian egg,
glowing and velvety finished,
only the egg "literally fresh
from the nest," can be used,
the agent said. The evenness of
color and depth of tone depend
on an egg unmarred by cooking
or rubbing.
The design in the Moravian
egg is painted on with a wooden
applicator, then covered with
beeswax. In the final step, the
egg is immersed in a dark color
bath for background contrast.
Just the opposite egg is need
ed for the Czechoslovakian egg.

A spray of clear plastic pre
serves the colors indefinitely.
For the most beautiful oil
painted eggs, the contents are
blown out, the oil paints mixed
with quickly drying varnish and
applied with a sable brush. Only
one side is painted at a time and
left to dry for several days be
fore painting the other side.
For egg decorators less artisti

within reach by embellishing
eggs with jewels, sequins,
braids, delicate wire or with
the colorful seals in the con
