"They are the world's most soigne," she said. (Webster says the term Trreans "well groomed, sleek"). "How free they are. how well prepared with the fundamentals. They have learned the lesson of simplicity." She conceded there are excep tions "like local weather." Yet Valentina is the first to urge a woman to break the rules occasionally. "Try the dramatic," she said, "But not everyday." The Long View - Valentina, a tall, beautiful woman who resembles Greta Garbo. a customer, is best known for elegant clothes with timeless lines.

Dunuc o cooo 9 Society j Grandmother Earns College Degree By Studying Noontimes Waco, Tex. (U.R; Mrs. Her man Kettler, a grandmother, made her lunch hours pay off with a college degree. Mrs. Kettler. a graduate of Baylor University with a busi ness degree in accounting, for feited her lunch hour for nine years to earn her diploma. She took her first class, a course in accounting, in 1947 during a break from her job at the school's business office. The 46-year-old University employee next took an English course. She said both these courses were "just for fun." So were a few others she enrolled in. Then In the fall of 1952, she began to think about getting a degree so she added night courses too. She continued her job at the University and went right on keeping house for her hus band and two sons, who also are Baylor graduates. Now, Mrs. Kettler said, she may take some post-graduate courses in philosophy. "The more I learn, the more I want to learn," she said. "I believe I could go to school for ever."

They're so easy to make, and fun, too, because of the many do-it-yourself decorating items on the market today. The simplicity trick is in the use of a new clear drying glue which can make any decoration stick per fectly to the Christmas stocking. This versatile all-gluing poly vinyl acetate adhesive is a real blessing for the do-it-yourself Christmas decorator. To make the extra-gay Christ mas stocking, buy ready-made white, red or green felt stockings, or make your own, in a jiffy. Here's how: Draw a simple stock ing pattern on brown WTapping paper. For each stocking use two thicknesses of felt, one on top of the other, and pin the pattern to them. Cut out the felt with pinking shears. Stitch the two thicknesses together to make the stocking. Then take the stocking and glue a two-inch piece of contrast ing felt around the top. And glue a striped piping to the bottom edge of this for extra decor. Draw your own simple designs on felt of various colors. Such decorative designs as Christmas trees, snow men, candy canes, holly leaves, Santas, bells, and reindeer are easy to make. Cut these out with shears or razor blade and glue them on the stocking. Small packets of sequins, gold and silver glitter, and stars, colorful braid can be bought almost anywhere this sea son. Use the sequins for orna ments on your felt Christmas tree and for reindeer eyes. Glue star at the top of the tree. Apply a thin line of glue behind the reindeer and dust with silver glitter for a sparkling trail. Use braid, ribbon, cord, tiny bells and Christmas tree ornaments for added decoration. Make each stocking sparkle with originality. BREAKFAST SOUP Instead of tomato juice for breakfast some morning soon try giving the family cups of hot tomato soup.

American Kitchens Said Producing Bad Dispositions By JERRY REYNOLDS United Press Correspondent Lodi, Calif. (U.R) The Amer ican kitchen is the world's great est producer of grumpy disposi tions and neurotic personalities, a nutrition authority says. Dorothea Van Gundy, a repre sentative of the International Nutrition Research Foundation, pointed out that the modern homemaker is eager to please her family's palate with fancv dishes j made from highly refined prod ! ucts. I As a result, Miss Van Gundy I said, "she often unwittingly snortcnanges her family nutri tionally." She spoke recently at a Seventh-Day Adventist meeting on the Lodi Academy campus. The nutritionist urged a re turn to the use of simple natural foods as a solution to the health problem in America. She said that today only 24 Americans out of 1.000 are in perfect health. "Feeding experiments have demonstrated that a normal, well-adjusted person may be made sickly and neurotic when sufficient amounts of the essen tial elements are missing from the diet," she said. Dangerous Habits Miss Van Gundy termed the following dietary habits as "dan gerous:" The use of large quantities of foods containing white sugar, breads and pastries made with highly refined white flour, cer eals which have the natural oils and plant germ removed, and spices such as black pepper. She also listed the excessive use of coffee, tea and soda pop as being factors which are "caus ing Americans to fall apart at the seams healthwise." "The much-vaunted coffee break is definitely not the bless ing to Amercans it first was thought to be," she said. "Instead of easing tensions built up by workers in offices or factories the caffein in coffee cause the blood pressure to rise. It also affects the heart and may even produce muscular tremojs." She also declared that the "American practice of giving children coffee to drink is almost as bad from a health standpont as the French practice of letting children drink wine." gift idea . . . CTVP 4 KJ JL V JLi I i COLOR Tuesday, December 11, 1956 Engineer Produces New Device for Hanging Up Clothes West Boyston, Mass. vU.P.) The American house wife's clothesline habits may be the invention of a local engineer. He has produced a revolution ary clothes-hanging device that weighs only four grams. It takes 113 of the new plastic "pins" to weigh a pound. "My wife was the inspira tion," says Roger L. Nowalk. "She suggested it and all I did was work out her idea and find a way of producing it. There's no doubt it will -sweep the country." . The ringed, pronged device is produced in six colors. It is one piece. The tension is in the plas itc and in the shape. He calls them "ringlets" because you can load them on a finger while hanging clothes. Parents Should Provide Good Study Conditions Urbana, 111. (U.R) To encour age good study habits in your children provide them with good study conditions, sys Dorothy Iwig, University of Illinois home furnishing expert. Miss Iwig recommended a dull-finished desk because it won't reflect light. If you have a shiny-finish desk, cover it with a light-colored blotter to reduce the contrast between the dark desk and the light pages of a book or paper. If walls are dark or heavily patterned, place a light-colored bulletin board in front of the desk to reflect light toward the working area of the desk top. TASTY RICE DISH If the rest of your meal tends to be bland or all light in color, this golden rice will lift it from everyday to perfection.
