Life-Saving Net
Thanks to a new invention, ship­
wrecked people will not, in fu­
ture, be hit on the head by life­
belts thrown into the water. Ths
new life-saving net is made of cork
pieces arranged on a rope frame­
work in meshes of square feet. It
can be rolled up and kept in readi­
ness, used as a ladder when un­
rolled down the side of a sinking
ship, and will hold a large num­
ber of men in safety.
It cannot capsize, supports sur­
vivors without any effort on their
part, and by keeping them togeth­
er in groups makes their rescue
easier.
HIE COVERED DISH CHURCH Sl PI’IJl
(See Recipes Below)
As I sit here thinking ubout church
suppers, my mind wanders back
several years to the suppers I at­
tended in my old home town. There
was always a feeling of congeniali­
ty. of hospitality and fellowship. The
annua) church supper was some­
thing that couldn't tie. and wouldn't
be, missed.
Muny times it was a covered dish
supper. There was usually a great
variety of food. The menu was di­
vided up Into the main dish, the sal­
ad. the bread and butter, and the
dessert. Each lady of the church
was made rei|x>nalble for one Item
of the menu; and she, no doubt, pre­
pared her own favorite recipe.
Cm you pais a table containing a
tempting assortment of foods with­
out wanting at
least a taste of
everything? Can
you decide wheth­
er or not you
want the coconut
cream pie which
is heaped with
fluffy
whipped
cream, or the
rich-looking chocolate cuke with the
thick fudge icing, when you know
that you are entitled to only one des­
sert? Of course not! Instead of hav­
ing such a wide selection of food for
a covered dish supper, why not plan
a well-balanced menu so that every­
one gets exactly the same?

illusion caused by the artifices of
slimming silk jersies, of draping,

blouses, headgear, cunning little
evening shawls and innumerable
other accessory items made of silk
jersey. For draping and achieving
sculpturesque "lines,” there is noth­
ing in the entire fabric realm com­
parable to supple, lovely silk jersey.
Gray silk jersey is endorsed
throughout the entire style parade,
starting with blouses that will lake
you from luncheon right through to
cocktails and important little din­
ners. For the most part these have
long fitted sleeves, although the
below-elbow length is also favored.
The attractive blouse to the left in
the illustration is typical.
It is
made with a high neck and curved
scams running toward the armhole
in front, in order to secure the cowl
drupery in pretty precision.
The
sleeves are long and modish. The
draped Persian silk turban gives
just the right dash of color to glorify
this exceeding chic blouse.
Bewitching are the dark silk Jer­
sey afternoon dresses. Because of
the slim fall of the material, skirts
are cut slightly fuller and there is
much shirred and draped detail in
bodices that will flatter every type
of figure. See to the right in the

Y
Shows Pompadour
Smart hats for fall and winter are
fashioned and worn to show off the
new pompadour hair-do. Here are
two hats that do just that—play up
to the fashionable pompadour coif­
fures. The one at the top is a youth­
ful version with a big brim that lifts
off the face and swoops low to the
nape of the neck. The foundation of
the hat is black felt with gold, ma­
roon and navy stitching over its
entire surface. A trio of quills in
gold, red and blue puncture the up­
lifted front brim. The black velvet
dinner hat below was especially de­
signed for the new pompadour hair­
dress which shows off the forehead
so becomingly. It promises to be­
come increasingly popular.
