SLIP WITH NEW LINES
Here’s a slimming costume slip that Paris has designed along the lines of the new frock. The interesting cut of the moulded bodice extending into a deep point at the front proves a particularly slenderizing feature and gives lengthened line. The skirt, being circular, falls so gracefully beneath the similar circular flaring hemline of the frock. The hem of the slip may be rolled by hand, which gives it a French finish or it may be finished professionally with picot edge. Lace edging provides a dainty trim which may also trim the upper edge of the bodice. Style No. 228 may be had in sizes 14, 16, 18, 20 years, 36 and 38 inches bust. Size 16 requires 2% yards of 35-inch material with 3Vi yards of edging. Our Fall and Whiter Fashion magazine is ready. Price of book, 10 cents. Price of pattern, 15 cents in stamps or coin (coin is preferred). Wrap coin carefully.

WHAT’S IN FASHION? Grandma’s ‘Half-and-Half Dress’ Directed By AMOS PARRISH
Half-and-Half Dresses as Lanvin, Bruyere and Chanel Design Them
NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—Don’t smile indulgently when grandma starts to tell you what she wore when she was a girl. Prick up your ears, instead, and you’ll get plenty of fashion hints that you can put to use. For many a modern fall fashion comes from her heyday. When she tells you a half-and-half dress is twice as smart, believe her and profit by her advise. It is—if it’s half a dress in one color or fabric and half in another. “Half” is really a misnomer, though. The good half-and-half

Times readers who have taken advantage of The Times-Indiana Roof free ’’Tangiana” instructions during the last week will be given the opportunity to display their adeptness with the new dance creation of Jac Broderick, Roof dance master, if they enter the “Tangiana” contest in the local ballroom tonight. A long list of prizes, headed by a woman’s and a man’s wrist watch, gifts of the Stanley Jewelry Company; a man’s tailored suit from Gorns of the J. B.

Any Times reader presenting a clipping of this article will be eligible to enter the contest, from which all professional dancers are barred. It will start at 10:30 p. m. and is to be judged by popular applause. Morrey Brennan, “The Giant of Jazz,” and his C. B.

dress is rarely if ever divided exactly in half. It’s not made of one color from neck to waist and another from waist to hem. The skirt color extends up into the bodice, or the bodice color down into the skirt. Gives a better proportion, as you’ll see when you try one on.

them for sports wear with plain color wool skirts and striped jersey tops. Lanvin’s half-and-half idea is a white-topped black afternoon dress. Vionnet does it for evening with a pale blue satin skirt and white satin overblouse top lamed in blue. They’re one-piece or two-piece, and some of the two-piece look almost like skirt and contrasting jacket. Chanel and Bruyere make them thus. Contrast Colors or Tones The half-and-half dress can be two contrasting colors or two tones of one color. Two kinds of wool can be smartly combined in a dress for sports or general daytime wear, such as wool crepe with the new wool mesh. Wool-and-silk is another good street wear combination. But wool and Lyons velvet are more unusual, or wool (or silk) with velveteen. Satin and lame, satin and crepe roma, crepe satin using both sides of the material—grand for evening. Yes—fashion certainly meets you at least halfway in your efforts to look smart this fall.

Com Syrup Is Tasty in Frostings BY SISTER MARY NE.% Service Writer Perfect cake frostings are easy to make if you understand the part each ingredient plays and the proper handling of the syrup during and after cooking. What is a perfect frosting? First of all comes the matter of fine flavor. This means not only the use of fine materials, but also a perfect blending of the flavor of the frosting with that of the cake. Second in importance is texture. The frosting must feel finegrained and creamy on the tongue. Furthermore, the perfect frosting mtyst hold its shape, have a glossy appearance, remain moist on standing and cut without cracking. These much-desired qualities may be obtained in several ways, but the surest and most simple method of securing a delectable frosting is to use light corn syrup with sugar. Thermometers Are Help The corn syrup gives no flavor to the frosting but makes and keeps it soft and smooth. Be sure to measure accurately, however, for too much corn syrup makes the frosting gummy and too soft. The length of time or temperature of the frosting syrup is an important factor in the making of frostings. Sugar-cookery thermomtiers are a decided help for the making of uniformly perfect frostings, since they climinite all guesswork as to whether the syrup is cooked enough. m m m WHITE FROSTING Two and one-half cups of fine granulated sugar, M cup com syrup, % cup water, whites of 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix sugar, water and com syrup in a smooth sauce pan. Cover pan and cook over a low fire until boiling begins. Remove cover and when thermometer reaches 238 degrees F., pour about one-third of the syrup in a thin stream over the stiffly beaten egg whites, beating constantly. Return syrup to fire and cook until thermometer registers 242 degrees F. Continue to beat frosting while the syrup is cooking and when 242 degrees is reached, beat in about half of the syrup. Return syrup again to fire and cook until 244 degrees F. is reached. Don’t Beat Too Long Add remaining syrup and beat until the right consistency for spreading. Add vanilla after frosting has cooled slightly. Do not beat frosting too long. As soon as the glassy look becomes slightly dulled, spread on the cake. If over-beaten, the frosting will dry out and “cake.” If you put this frosting in a tightly covered jar you can keep it for several days or a week. Os course, you know you can change the flavor of the frosting by using different extracts. For instance, a particularly delicious frosting for a devil’s food cake is made by adding four or five drops of oil of peppermint in place of vanilla. Then if you cover the frosting with a coating of bitter chocolate, you will have a cake that makes a full dessert by itself. Melt the chocolate over warm water and brush over the frosting on the cake. Be sure the frostnlg is thoroughly cooled. Use a limber spatula or a pastry brush to spread the chocolate.
Be on Guard, Is State Diy Chiefs Plea By United Press Lafayette, Ind., Oct. 24.—Attainment of world prohibition by “observance and enforcement” was the keynote of an address by Mrs. Elizabeth T. Stanley, Liberty, president of the Indiana Women's Christian Temperance Union, at the organization’s fifty-eighth annual convention here Friday. Mrs. Stanley formed her address as an attack on contentions that employment would be aided materially and that revenues would be increased vastly if light wines and beer were legalized. "The ‘wets’ tell as that they will employ 2,000,000 idle men and women if booze is returned,” Mrs. Stanley said, “but we recall that in the palmy days of liquor business that, according to their own figures, they employed 498.901 persons, and of this number 409,000 were bartenders. “More booze was sold in a day before prohibits _ than all the bootleggers together sell now in a month,” Mrs. Stanley asserted. Mrs. Stanley urged education of young people as one of the most effective methods of enforcement. “More than 25,000,000 persons have reached the voting age since prohibition,” Mrs. Stanley said. “Millions of these have never seen an intoxicated man. We must not let ‘wet’ forces misguide them.” LUNCHEON IS GIVEN FOR CITY VISITORS Mrs. Howard Meeker, 340 East Fifty-sixth street, has as her house guests, Mrs. D. C. Bowman and Mrs. Lester Janney, Muncie, and Mrs. Ralph Bowman, Los Angeles. She entertained at luncheon in their honor Friday, at her home.
