For" Ywle Holidays
What Is a holiday feast after all?
Perhaps three or four extra course;
perhaps something we don't us
ually serve but much simpler and
just r.s effective Is the holiday
feast which is only an . everyday
meal with a few fancy touches.
The best thing about the.se fancy
touches Is that we can use thern
throughout the year whenever we
wa nt to d ress up a party meal,
or make a plain family one look
imposing.
Ho I'ou serve ripe olives as well
as green ones, and how many kinds
of stuffing besides pimienlo do
you know? The larger stores sell
olives stuffed with anchovies, with
celery, with tiny onions, and with
nlmonds. Tickles become a pop
ular Item in Iho feast if they hap
pen to be pickled watermelon rind,
small pickled onions, or pickled
walnuts or mushrooms. Cranberry
jelly looks especially appotisting if
II Is molded in a seasonable slia.ie
(a star for Christmas, a heart for
St. Valentine's day, etc).
Canapes nre the delicious tid
bits which are sometimes served
as I he. first course.
They are us-
ualy highly flavored, tneir pur-.

an individual portion consists of
one of each kind of canape; or

thick, with crusts removed, is
toasted on one side ,and covered
jvith a foft, flavorsome pnlxture or.
with Anchovies',"" splits sardines,

Canapes are a practical first

Experts Tell of the
Everybody Is talking so much
about tho new princess silhouette
that little consideration is being
given to tho details which are al
ways essential, whether the sil
houette is old or new. But Paris
never forgets nnd here are some
things about which the represen

port in the December Issue,
ltcally Ijoittfer?
The change to longer skirls in
daytime frocks was sudden nnd
complete, without the gradual dip
ping thnt slowly lengthened the
hemline of formal frocks. While
we were still wearing short dresses,!
we were offered the choice of;
changing to frocks four or five
Inches helow the knee, or of Iook
Ing old-fashioned. Tn tho new
frocks every line suggests length
from seomlngs that accent the
length from neckline to hlpllne,
to the skirt that features the new
graceful length.
Tailored Yet Soft
This season's fushlons, called
"feminine," nre not too sensible;
consider heouty and hecomingnes
a great deal more important than
mere practical considerations. In
other seasons when a frock want
ed to he practical abovo nil things,
it grew slightly mannish In tho
attempt. Itut now Paris makca
even the most practical frocks con
form to the new spirit in fashion.
There nre plenty of French models
with straight lines, and plenty with
pp-nts. But there nre almost none
that do not show a feminine treat
ment In some way. In a soft cape
or n collar, a flattering bow, or
a front closing finished In the

Almost every important silhou

Is a youthful one, hut the frocks
In which they appear are not lim

the youthful lines there Is also a

The princess silhouette has been
accepted enthusiastically, but prin
cess lines are constantly showing
new developments. Tho slender
bodice, slightly fitted waist nnd
slender hlpllne can hardly be Im

constantly. In many nf the new
models, the flare Is replaced by a
soft fulness, nut to dip in points
almost to tho floor.

Ptttting on Hat j

New Style Era
The simple, process of putting on
a hat has become a high art In
the era of present styles.
"Hats are back." she says, "two
Inches or more. They flew back

changes In fashion. At least that
is the way they look. Instead of
wearing our bats down Ho tint
only one eye is visible, now not
only both eyes must he seen, but
a goodly portion of tho forehead
as well.
"Your hats must be pulled well
down on tin neck In the back and
up at the front. It is really n
flattering fashion, especially If yon
coax some important little locks
out nt the sides.
"Always pull your hat on from
the back and see, that it Is per
fectly straight on tho head. This
year so many of tho hats havo a
pronounced side line that you have
to be' careful to see that the cen
ter front or tho hat comes exactly
tn line with the eyes. If your hair
is long and a becoming hat is
hard to find, try thinning out the
hair in tho hack, leaving just
enough to tuck tho ends In n mod
est French knol. H takes a gre:il
deal of courage to do this, but if
will be much easier afterward to
find mora becoming lints as woil
as more comfortable ones. Don't
he afraid to make a change In your
type of hat, because It Is Just as
necessary as n change In dress or
color.

Several yenrs I removed tho old

do neither of these If I had plenty
of room fo threm, but tho bulbs
