I White Accents New Spring Costumes
! ! By CHERIE NICHOLAS
1 1
White costume touches are being ac
cented with the greatest enthusiasm
all through the spring and summer
mode. If not white and black, then
It la apt to be white and navy or
white and brown which Is wonderfully
chic. Even the smart beige and gray
costumes are taking on white con
trasts, making a feature of white mil
linery, scarfs, blouses, gloves, belts,
flowers and bags, also Jewelry.
A most effective version of the black
gown which highlights a dramatic con
trast In white Is presented in the ac
companying picture. Flat crepe Is the
material for the dress, made Interest
ing In that It Is styled with a single
large square lapel In white with a
waistcoat effect which displays a chevron-stripe.
A profile hat, so-called be
cause of Its long-side brim which at
side view silhouettes the features
against Its dark background, Is worn
with this costume. It carries out the
black-and-white Idea In that It Is a
black bakoo appropriately trimmed
with two carved Ivory-white ornaments.
Among Interesting fashions which
make white the keynote to their chic

There are some fairies called the
mermaid fairies becuuse they're In the
water more thnn they are out of It.
They had decided to help the little
fishes with a swimming party which
they were planning.
Every fairy In Fairyland was In
vited. There were the wood falrlea,
the dawn fairies, the evening fairies
ail of them were Invited, and they
made greut preparations over the way
they should go.
In the first place they wore lovely
dresses of green seaweed which really
were beautiful, and they put on their
water wings of green, too, to help
them when they got tired swimming.
The Fairy Queen wore a chain of
very fine sea shells which once upon
a time old Mr. I'lckerel had sent her.
They had been given to him by one
of his relations who lived In the sea,
for of course Mr. Pickerel's home Is
always In fresh water such as a lake
or a river or a streutn.
This swimming party was given In a
lake, and Mr. Pickerel was the host.
You can well guess how flattered he
was when he saw the Fairy Queen
wearing the present he had once given
to her.
The fairies all arrived In their boats
made of glass through which they
could tee right down to the bottom
of the lake, which was very deep.
The mermaid fairies and the fishes
were all swimming around waiting
for them, and when they came nit the
fishes' lies wiggled with pleasure and
are the following: white Jackets with
dark skirts; white furs on dark coats;
white coats of novel loose spongy

There can be nothing more gratifying
to a hostess than to give pleasure to
her friends.
One can do marvelous things with
Just a pickle. Cut Into the thinnest
of slices, spread In the form of a fan
on a tasty sandwich It Tot only gar
nishes It but adds an appetizer as
well.
Slice Inch slxed pickles Into very
thin slices, place on open-faced sand
wiches that have been spread with
cream cheese. Tut one slice in the
center of rounds, on the tiny Jlce
place a spot of whipped cream or
cheese mixed with cream aid dust
with cayenne or paprika. If finger
length sandwiches are used, pluce the
round pickle at the end and at the
other end a spot the size of a quarter
of finely shredded carrot
A Man's Salad. Prepare a half dot
en hard cooked eggs by cutting Into
halves and removing the yolks, mash
the yolks with butter, add mustard, aalt
and cayenne and refill the halves of
egg white. Arrange on lettuce and
cover with a sour cream dressing or a
mayonnaise with plenty of sour cream
added. If liked shredded onion nisy
be sprinkled over the lettuce before
placing the eggs.
Here Is another that the men like:
Take one head of lettuce, three or
four green onions or a slice of ber
muda onion finely minced, three or
three, go, remember what It means.
"I will give three small splashes
with my tall and then I will Jump
away up, and come down with a ter
rific splash which will mean, 'Go!"
All the fulrles got ready for the
big swimming race, and the little
fishes all swam around In circles to
cheer them along, for of course the
fishes didn't go in the race. That
would hardly have been fair I
And when Mr. Pickerel said, "no,"
and made the terrific Jump and splash
with his tall all the fairies Jumped
and it was several minutes before
any of them actually got started.
They had been so startled by Mr.
Pickerel's mighty splash.
That amused the fishes and It
amused the fairies, too.
Granny Perch gave the prize, and
how she did wiggle her fins when ahe
presented It.
The prize was a new set of water
wings made out of the softest and
loveliest of moss thnt came from the
bottom of the lake and which had been
made by Granny Perch Into (he wings.
Then all the fishes took the fairies
to their Pond Lily Cove where they
hud a banquet of delicious water weed
aalad, water moss Ice cream and pond
Illy lemonade.
But the winner of the prize was a
little fairy named Fairy Perch be
cause she was so at home In the water.
Aren't you glad that she won the
prize?

I Ways of Cooking Apples
tHaowooooooooofinoioooootwoooopooooaoooooooooaoooa
Baked Apple,
(Prepared by the United Sialee Iw-partmunt
of Aarh ulture.) WNU Service,
When the oven Is In use for other
cooking It's a good time to have an
apple dessert or apples In some other
baked dish. Apples with vegetables,
or meat, like scalloped apples and
sweet potatoes, or apples with ear
rots or apples with pork chops en cas
serole, are served hot. Apple desserts
are enjoyed cither hot or cold.
' linking apples In their skins Is one
of the favorite ways of cooking them
because It Is so easy. ' What could
be simpler on a busy day, than wash
ing and coring a few big rosy apples,
lining the cavities with sugar and t
little butter, and then baking them In
a dish that ran be sent to the table
direct from the oven, either hot or
cold? The baking dish may be cov
ered at first so that the apples will
cook partially In their own Juices.
Borne people like to pure the apples
as well as core them, and to bake
them In heavy sirup, with a sugges
iters, hips nnd ankles In linn, and head
erect. She can reach all the dishes In
the pan comfortably without stooping.
U Is prohahlo that alio has also
evolved a very elllclont routine for
dishwashing. She has perhaps timed
herself In this task and scrutlnlr.od It
to see whether there la any way of
shortening the work. I'uneccasary
motions run often he eliminated. For
exnmple, Just us ono leaves the dishes
iu a dash washing machine to drain
nnd dry, the person who has only

pour gculdlng water over her dishes
In the drain basket nnd let them dry
without wiping. Double drain boards
Are always satisfactory, but If there Is
room for one only, It Is most cWiiveul
cut for a right-handed person ou the
left side of the sink. Dishes are held
In the left hand and washed with the
right, then set in the drain basket
without crossing the arms as would be
necessary with the drain board nt the
right.
The task of dishwashing can also be
speeded up by Intelligent previous
work. As the table Is cleared, plates
and other china of similar shape nnd
size should be scraped and stacked to
gether ready for washing. All silver
Is usually washed ut one time, and
motions are saved If It Is collected be
