Pink roses, snapdragons and gladioli were used throughout Miss Birk’s home, and in the center of the table, which held the gifts, was a large pink rose. The gifts were hidden under the petals and in the center of the rose was a miniature bride. At serving time a smaller rose with a bride in the center was used at the centerpiece for each table. The ices were molded in the form of pink roses and the cakes were iced with rose buds. The hostess was assisted by her mother, Mrs. William Birk, and her sister, Mrs. Floyd Fults. ’■ The guests were: Mesdames Theodore Schuller Edmund Emery Edward Appel Harold Robinson C. W.

Spanish Cooking Produces Food Highly Seasoned Newcomers to America naturally cling to the foods of their native country. Foods which we are so delighted with are unappetizing to them. They must gradually grow to like them. We would realize this more clearly if we should visit some other country than our own where we would be introduced to unheard of dishes. The Spanish people have a custom of preparing highly spiced foods. To simple dishes, they add spices and peppers until they have a highly flavored food. This high flavor will often tempt appetites that couldn’t otherwise be tempted. Most of us do not remember, but the early settlers of the country always kept a good supply of herbs which they added to the simple fare they served at that time. It will also be found that the Spanish foods are very rich in fat. It is both added to the product and used as a medium for frying. An excessive use of spices and fat is very hard on the stomach.

Denies Servants Scarce By United Pres* 'WASHINGTON, July 20.—The shortage of domestic servants, of which the housewife is complaining, is a myth, according to the labor department. There is enough such help to go around. There is, however, a shortage of efficient workers, and the efficient ones ask wages and employment conditions which many housekeeper regards aj unreasonable, a surrey by the department shows.

LIGHT IN COLORED FURNITURE

How brightness in the bedroom is achieved by colorful furniture against contrasting walls and floor.

Colored furniture, that charming fashion of an earlier day now so delightfully revived,' is nowhere more appropriate than in the bedroom. It achieves such cool, fresh, pleasant effect! There is no dangef of an atmosphere of heaviness and gloom, where bed, dresser and a chair or two are of some light, dainty shade perhaps decorated with a contrasting color. Its brightness should have a suitable background of walls and woodwork in light, harmonious tints. Some alluring color schemes may be worked out. For a young girl’s bedroom, pastel shades are charming. How like the Idyll of springtime would be bright furniture of hydrangea blue, against walls painted a delicate peached framed in ivory woodwork! A decoration of peach blossoms might be stenciled on the furniture. For the bedroom of an elderly woman a soft plum colored decorat-

Bob, Slap, Jail By United Press WASHINGTON, July 20. She bobbed her hair. Her husband spanked her. She called police. The husband, Grover Carr, told Police Judge Mattingly he disapproved of shorn tresses, and so did his father. “My wife,” remarked the judge, “bobbed her hair without asking me.” “He’s beaten me too,” said Mrs. Carr. “Six months,” said the judge, “for unwarranted assault.”

All-Over Tan By United Press NEW YORK, July 20.—A Seventh Ave. dress goods house has invented dresses of a material that will admit ultraviolet rays and allow flappers so become tanned all over. The cloth that promises this boon to humanity is a chemical material knitted from celanese, a cellulose acetate product, and is called “vio-ray.”

ed with lines of silver is appropriate. The walls would be exquisitely harmonious if of a very light skyblue, and the .woodwork cream. For a room shared by two people, or for a guest room, it is safer to paint the furniture a neutral shade, such as light gray or old ivory, and then enliven the room with bits of brighter color in lampshades, candles, cushions, bric-a-brac, etc. It is best to choose a cheerful but not too vivid color scheme for a man’s or boy’s room, the furniture perhaps brown or gray and brightened with decorative touches of orange or red. Both for sanitary and decorative purposes, painted furniture is ideal for the nursery. Pink and blue are the traditional “baby” colors, but just as attractive are the wee bed, dresser and chairs in white or cream, decorated in pink, blue or yellow, using such designs as flowers, birds, chicks, bunnies, or a gay flight of yellow butterflies.

War Chieftain f s Robes to Serve as Style Guides By United Press NEW YORK, July 20.—Abd-El-Krim, the fierce Riff chieftain who for years kept the armies of France and Spain at bay, will be the model this fall for one of the latest modes in women’s wear. Some of the robes found in his possession at the time of his surrender have recently been shown in Paris and so rich and colorful were the embroideries that fashion designers conceived the idea of adapting them to the haute couture. According to a dispatch from Paris, the Arab embroideries will be a fall seasonal rage. French Colonial officials in promising couturiers a plentiful supply of the embroidery, have turned its use into the powerful factor for peace among the desert tribes. For centuries embroidering was carried on chiefly as a pastime, but following the discovery of the rich varieties by fashion designers the government is encouraging embroidering as a trade, thus creating a lucrative industry for natives as a reward for living at peace with th outside world. Soft, white, all-wool materials decorated with Arab embroidery are recommended as best preserving the original note found in Abd-El-Krim’s picturesque garments.

SUMMER BEAUTY

BY MME. ANNE GERARDE For NEA Service Crow’s feet, those fine wrinkles around the eyes, are often the first sign of age. They are caused not so much by years as by too dry a skin, one that lacks both oil and moisture. Drink from eight to ten glasses of water daily and use a good rich skin food twice a day to eliminate them. Massage is the most helful way to eradicate them. Dip the tips of your fingers in muscle oil, or sweet oil if you lack the prepared lotion, and beginning at the outside corner of the eye, massage very, very gently under the eye toward the nose, rounding upward and making a circular motion over the eyeball toward the outside of the eye again. Lift fingers from eye and begin again. Massage each eye ten times. Then gently pat the outside sides of the eye where the wrinkles appear. Leave muscle oil on all night.

Keeping Busy Eases Pangs of Unrequited, Affection BY MARTHA LEE A famous actress once said, “No man is worth a woman's tears,” and how right she is in many cases. The many letters coming to me in this office from women who are or think they are in love with men who do not seem to return the affection make me want to say to each of them, "Don’t cry over it. Find something to do to keep busy and keep your mind occupied. Hard work and a busy life will keep you from growing sentimental over a man who does not return your love.”

‘Beat Him to It’ Dear Mar ha Lee: Perhaps you can advise me what is best to do. I am a widow with two small daughters whom my mother keeps while I work. Two years ago I met a man eight years my senior and have been going with him ever since. I went with a boy friend of mine shortly after I began to go with him and he has never gotten over It. He says I was untrue to him. He loved my. children and seemed to worship me and has planned' for the time when we would have a home and never have to be separated again. But now that his daughter is married and he is free to do as he pleases he says that he is afraid I can never be any more than a pal to him as he would be so jealous of me as his wife that it would make my life a misery. I found out through him that he was with a woman several times a month ago and that she was no good. He says he still loves me but he doesn t act the same as he did and he says his wife caused him to lose all faith in women, till he can't trust them at all. I care more for this man than I want to admit and he knows it and my life would seem empty without him. He says he will go o" forever as a pal and be true to me. Please give me your honest opinion of this matter. WORRIED 28. Never let a man know that your happiness depends upon him unless you are sure that he feels the same way about you, and even then it is best not to show affection mingled with jealousy. I am sure you do not prefer the company of a man who would go willingly with the type of women you mentioned, so why not tell him you no longer care to have him as a pal, and that henceforth you will recognize him merely as a friend. This would show dignity on your part, and avert the humiliation of your being jilted later. His attitude shows that he is trying to let you off in an easy manner, so why not “beat him to it?” However, if good predominates in his make-up and he loves yau as he says he does, he may wake up when you turn him down. Otherwise, he is not worth worrying about. Called Off Wedding Dear Martha Lee: I am 18 and have no mother to take my troubles to so I am writing to you. I have gone with a boy 18, and love him dearly and he says he loves me at times. We were to be married but something came between us and now he has come back and wants me to go with him. The last time I weht with him my best girl friend was with me. He took me to my brother’s and I stayed to go to work. That left them to go back together. It broke my heart, for I told her to get out at her home. He has had dates with her and now wants her to quit her steady and go with him and she said she would if he would quit me. She told me she was to become a mother in December and her mother doesn’t know anything about it. Now would you claim her or him your best friend or go with him any more? I love him. PINK ROSE BUD. Surely you could not be happily married to a man whom you know is interested in another girl. Do not try to keep him as an intimate friend if you think he is the father of the other girl’s child, as it would be wrong for him not to marry her under those circumstances. But if you think he is unaware of her fate and that the other man is responsible. I think she is taking unfair advantage. The situation requires very tactful handling, but remember that if he prefers her to you, there is no known recipe to rekindle a dead love. He Likes to Pet Dear Miss Lee: A fellow I know wants to pet all the time, but he never mentions getting engaged. Would you think he loves me when he does not want to get married? He jokes about other folks getting married. ROSE M. If you are in a hurry to marry, it appears as if you are wasting time with the man you mention. However, if you are willing to be patient he may eventually tire of single blessedness and decide to propose to you. As has been said before in this coumn, a girl makes a mistake letting a man pet her before she knows his intentions are serious and honorable.

Club Women Boycott Gas in Fight on Higher Rates

By United Press WICHITA, Kan., July 20.—Following the success of a ‘gasless Tuesday” as a protest against increased gas rates, the Federation of Women’s Clubs here today planned a more extensive boycott of gas in cooking. “Gasless Tuesday,” which the club hopes to perpetuate, was quite successful, the club women reported today. Many families of the city partook of cold repasts, not only at luncheon, but for dinner as well.

The gas company, however, contradicted the statement of the club leaders, when an announcement was issued late Tuesday that no appreciable decrease in gas consumption had been noted. After drawn out litigation in courts, the company established a higher schedule of rates, which, according to the company’s officials, will result in an increase of 22 per cent to the average consumer. It was in protest against this increase that the women established gasless Tuesday. It was estimated that 75 per cent of the 20,000 homes in Wichita went without gas Tuesday in the protest for lower rates, on the basis of the women’s claims.

Sacrifice Still Role of Women BY. MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Mme. Sigme Relander, wife of the president of the Finland Republic, sacrificed a brilliant social career, we are told, to devote her time to her husband, who has been seriously ill. That this incident is worthy of comment in the newspapers speaks well for us. For how many thousands of wives have sacrificed things more worth while than social careers for the men they love! This sweeping revolution staged by the women of the world, which has upset so many of our cherished conventions, does not indicate that the modern woman is wholly different from those silent mothers of the past. What Dreams? For how do we Know what dreams lived in those long dead hearts? How do we know what ambitions may have brooded in the souls of those meek housewives who spent their lives attending their domestic duties? How do we know how many lives were crushed because for them there was no outlet for their urge for action? We always believe the admirable wife and mother of half a century ago, who concerned herself only with the things inside her own four walls, was a contented and happy creature. Perhaps she was, and then again, perhaps she was not. For the entire history of womenkind until very recently has been one of suppression. For them there has been no glory save that which was reflected from the master of the hearth, no future save that carved out by him. And they have toiled and endured, and cooked and spun, and been silent, cleaving to their men in sickness and in health. Built On Bravery The Pilgrim mothers and the women who left their homes and tramped beside the prairie schooners with their faces turned toward the wilderness, on the bravery has this nation been built, and because they were faithful and unafraid was born the glory which we now realize. , Club Luncheon Mrs. L. R. Faust and Mrs. Stanley Pavey were hostesses for a luncheon today at the College Ave. tea room for members of the Covington Club.

If You Sit Up Straight, Ills Vanish BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON A certain woman had “lost” her health, and being one of the fortunate few who may indulge their indispositions, she had spent years in the wake of specialists, watering places, baths and sanitariums., And still she ailed. She didn't imagine she was ill. She was ill! She had headaches, terrible, unbearable ones; she was nervous, tired and despondent; she had pains all through her; she couldn't sleep. One day she sprained her knee. She was roughing it on a western ranch this time trying to scare away the hoodoo of ill health by fresh air and sunshine. There was no doctor near except a little wizened old half-breed who lived in the nearest town some miles away. They hauled her in a Ford over a white alkali road, found- the "doctor” playing poker at a gas station and smelling of fumes which were not of the remotest relation to gasoline. He waited to cash in before going to his office to attend to his patient. With a few dexterous twists and pulls, the knee was set, and a few directions given. “Good work, doctor!” said the wife of the ranch owner, when the patient was ensconsed in the car again. “You see she's sort of an invalid and we’re trying to take good care of her. She’s been all over the world and still she’s sick. Too bad this had to happen.” “Tell her to sit up straight and she will not be long sick,” said the doctor with a grin. “Straight peoples do not get sick.” The invalid is about cured now. She decided to follow the little old fellow’s advice. None of the specialists had told her the real truth. Her posture was wrong and she had suffered the tortures of the condemned as a result. I pass It along to those in search of health. “Straight peoples not get sick!” might be a good axiom to do in cross-stitch and hang over our doorways. DELEGATE CANDIDATE TO CHURCH MEETING Mrs. W. E. Ochiltree of Connersville will be a candidate for lay delegate to the general Methodist Episcopal church conference to be held in Kansas City next May. The delegates are chosen at the annual M. E. church conference of Indiana to be held in Irvington beginning Sept. 14. Mrs. Ochiltree is a lay electoral delegate from the First M. E. church in Connersville to the Irvington meeting.
