Lynn Chambers* Point-Saving Menus more than ration- in g a n d f o o d shortages to do that. Indeed, if you don’t breathe a word about how difficult it was to get it together, your friends will think you are giving them a glimpse of prewar entertaining. You can stretch the precious meat with a supporting cast of vegetables. If you're serving nonrationed eggs, gild them with a bit of cheese and no one will dream that you had to do some fancy extending. What about sugar? Well, there are syrups, point-free prepared pud dings and molasses. No, there need be no difficulties; dress up your dishes and carry on. Entertaining is fun, but that means fun not only for the guqkts but for the hostess. It's all up to you whether the party’s going to be pleasant for you or not. Gather your point-easy recipes, plan accordingly and I'm sure it will all come out all right. Let’s pretend your guests are coming in for an evening of conver sation and a bit of food later on. You'll want a good beverage or cool drink and with that an unusual cake. Here is one made to order for the occasion: •Prone Cake. 2 cups sifted cake floor 1 cop aogar \ NEW fashion * * in prints came in to b e in g th is spring. It's really a new branch on the family tree of mother - and ■ daughter or big * and* little sister fashions. The idea is, the print design produced for mother or big sister is reproduced in minia ture to tune to little daughter or little sister age. This print innovation Is so very new, so gay and so obvious the wonder is that no one thought of it before. The theme of big-'n-little prints is developing into much more than a mom and chile proposition in that it is making a tremendous hit for adult play clothes and daytime dresses. The idea of a large print plus a print scaled down to right proportion for children offers end less possibilities to creative genius. The fashion-wise girl with imagi nation will use the small print for her dress, making the most stun ning accessories out of the big print that fancy can picture. She ll try a blouse in little and a skirt in big print. When mother turns out a frock for herself and a miniature dupli cate for her child, she will do well to make them of the big and little doughnut print trimmed with gay ric-rac braid as shown in the fore ground of the illustration. The patternings of these new re lated prints are as gay and out of the beaten path as the big-and- little idea itself. The doughnut print is a favorite, and a bright-hued Dutch tile motif in the two sizes is charming, as is also the floral that patterns calico daisies in two sizes. Speaking of prints in general, the story they have to tell this sea son is as exciting as it esn be. The entire fashion world is intrigued with the remarkable "conversation prints" that lake just any theme, be It a ball of yarn, a safety pin or a i prancing horse that goes through all its antics in print on s colorful back ground handling the patterning so designfully snd artfully ft turns out to be a work of art that delights the eye. When it comes to the new florals, the story of prints deals with the theme in breathtaking new slants. There is, for instance, a superb print shown which splashes large white flowers with green leaves widely spaced on a navy blue satin back ground. Another beautiful print spaces enormous California pop pies, entirely realistic in color. Coming trends in prints herald dark grounds for both day and eve ning wear. The smartest S’pes are widely spaced. Satin prints with widely spaced motifs are last word news. There are many styling details that make as big news as the prints themselves. One of the late features is the side drape and side-fasten that is executed In original ways. Many of the side drapes that end In a cascade of ruffles have the edges finished off with sawtooth scalloping, with a like treatment edging the sleeves.
