A CHANGE IN' THE MEAT COURSE
(See Recipes Below)
"Meat makes the meal," especial­
ly when there are husky, hard-work­
ing men to feed. But for those be­
hind the scenes In the kitchen, think­
ing up a different and a flavorsome
meat dish for euch day out of the
seven Is no small task.
There are two ways to approach
First, investigate
the problem.
some of the less-
common cuts.
You'll find them
thrifty to buy be­
cause the demand
for them is less.
Most
of
them
fulrly abound In I good flavor and
need only to be pro|>er!y cooked to
be serious rtvuls to more expensive
cuts.
If you are buying pork, ask the
meat dealer to prepare you a hand­
some rolled sirloin roast. It's a
thrifty cut not so well known as the
pork loin roast but it has decided
advantages. Two sections of Uie
pork sirloin are boned and tied to­
gether into a solid roll of meat. The
roand, compact slices offer no ob­
structions to the knife, and are the
onswer to a carver's prayer. The
picnic shoulder of pork is another
cut of exceptional flavor. Have it
boned, stuff it with spinach and
roast it
W It's too soon for another leg of
lamb, buy a section of lamb breast
and have It rolled with a layer of
sausage. Slice off the meat as you
would a jelly-roll; you'll have the
neatest
pinwheels
imaginable.
Lamb shoulder and lumb shoulder
chops are two other not-so-wcll-
known possibilities.
The second way to coax some va­
riety into your meat dishes is to
try new ways of flavoring cuts that
you serve often. If much of your
moat supply comes from a frozen
foods locker, this is your best bet.
Huve pork chops cut double thick
and stuff them with a tart mix-
ture of sauerkraut and apple, Your
fumily will beam approval 1 when
you serve that combination! I Or
make your next ham loaf like an
upside-down cake so that when you
turn it out, there are rows of bright-
as-a-dollar apricots across the top.
Try canned gooseberries os a relish
with ham or beef, or canned Dam­
son plums with veal.

kraut juice, cover, and finish the

most alluring, the most all-prevail­
ing hobby among the fair sex is that
of acquiring a wardrobe of lovely
lacy soft and silken lingerie. Certain
it is that women’s enthusiasm for
pretty "undies," negligees and other
flattering boudoir apparel needs no
urge.
This is true of brides, debutantes,
teen-age lassies, career women—in
fact, everyone from girl to grand­
ma, no matter how tailored and
tweedy her exterior. When it comes
to comfort, relaxation and self ex­
pression of that innate love for the
beautiful, it is in the touch and the
wear of beguiling silken lingerie that
most women feel the desires of their
heart realized.
One of the most interesting ges­
tures in modern lingerie styling is
the dressmaker touch given to
gowns and negligees. Many of them
approach evening gowns in their
technique and style. In fact, eve­
ning gown tactics are known to have
been adopted to such an extent that
in some instances frilled and lace­
laden, ribboned “nighties" have ac­
tually gone dancing with onlookers
being none the wiser. If you have
ever visited an American silk in­
dustry exhibit, you would have not­
ed that the emphasis on beguiling
silken lingerie displayed in exquisite
boudoir environs is more than im­
pressive.
The fashion of giving dressmaker
detail to boudoir apparel is happily
stressed in the stunning twosome
shown to the left in the illustration.

designers suggest a third "black

resemble the manner of a party
dress.
A new trend to modesty in silk
night robes is the adorable gown
shown in the inset This empire
nightgown of heaven blue silk crepe
reveals a marked tendency to ex­
ploit light blues in lingerie fashions.
This model has a pleated bosonan
oval neckline with a wide bordering
of handsome lace about the hem­
line. The same lace repeated on
the short waist achieves a quaint
empire silhouette.
Shades of the Gibson girl! Here
it is in modernized version as shown
in the camisole-and-pantie set to the
right in the group. This combina­
tion garment of pinkish mauve silk
satin is trimmed with Alencon lace
dyed to match. The camisole zips
up the front and would fill a Gibson
girl with envy.
You will enjoy a far happier, care­
free spring and summer if you as­
semble your lingerie wardrobe in
the "do it now” spirit that will leave
more time for the spring sewing pro­
gram just beyond.

Furs for Women
Vary in Durability
Probably no other article of wom­
en's apparel is surrounded by quite
the aura of mystery as are fur
coats. Only an expert can tell any­
thing about the quality of furs. The
best the average woman can do is
to learn something of their wearing
qualities and then select the type
best suited to her needs.
Among the most durable furs are
classed beaver, fisher, mink, otter,
and badger. Other pelts that wear
very well are Alaskan seal, kolin­
sky, krimmer, marten, muskrat,
Persian lamb, raccoon and skunk.
If you are selecting furs to stand
hard daily wear, you will find these
most satisfactory.
Less substantial, but not classed
as actually fragile, are caracul, er­
mine, fox, leopard, lynx, marmot,
nutria and opossum. These require
constant care and should be sent to
the furriers frequently for check­
ing. Fragile furs include sable, chin­
chilla, squirrel, mole, chipmunk and
kidskin.
Winter Skiing Costumes
Sold in Matching Colors
The mix-and-match movement has
invaded the Held of ski clothes. This
year, along with the regulation two-
piece costumes, you will find jack­

matching colors.
The separate jackets are as trim­
ly tailored as are those of more con­
ventional suits and close with slide
fasteners all the way up the front.
They are reversible, with poplin,
treated to be wind resistant, on one
side and bright wool plaid on the
other.
