LOUNGE ATTIRE DESERVES WEARER’S CAREFUL STUDY
Worthy of Style ‘All Their Own ’ BY JEAN PATOU (Written for NEA Service) PARIS, Dec. 30.—One very seldom considers lounge attire when pondering generally on the wardrobe of a well-dressed woman. Yet It seems to me that precious as the moments are that a modem woman can spend In her own home, the garment she wears then should be studied as carefully as any other. Asa matter of fact, I think lounge clothes are sufficiently Important to have a style all their own, especially as nowadays a restful time does not necessarily mean the barring of all social activity. There is a question as to whether indoor styles should follow the prevailing mode or be completely independent. No Hard, Fast Rule Generally speaking, negliges usually harmonize with the remainder of a woman’s clothes, but there is no hard and fast rule governing this. By this, I mean that there is never any air of eccentricity in the lounge attire of a modern woman, but on the other hand, if the ardent sportswoman wishes, she can very well don an ultra feminine neglige for her leisure hours. A neglige is very often a decided insight into the character and personality of its wearer. It is something so extremely feminine and its chief qualities reside in its line and softness. Even when a negligee is mainly composed of a satin sheath effect, it should have some touches of light and airy trimming to convey that necessary albeit restrained vaporous note. Pajamas More Practical One feature, though, is barred rigorously from even the most feminine of negligees, and that is transparency. Still another point to keep in mind is that too rich or sumptuous a fabric is sure to result in something that looks old-fashioned, almost obsolete. It is quite ridiculous, on reflection, that a woman should wear a delicate and over-rich garment for resting purposes. Indoor pajamas, the other type of rest attire, obviously are less feminine but more practical. This latter quality, however, does not mean that a great deal of measure and study should attend their makeup. A mere detail will be sufficient to convey an ambiguous air to pajamas, and this can usually be traced to the desire to achieve complicated effects which they do not need. Sleeveless Blouse Good If in spite of all its practical qualities, a pajama must remain feminine, then this note must be given by the suppleness of its cut and fabric, but never by some touch of fantasy that is invariably out of place. The most satisfactory pajama ensemble is, I think, composed of a sleeveless blouse and trousers with the blouse tucked in the trousers. The latter should be wide, without exaggeration. I suggest a sleeveless blouse because the suit can be successfully completed by a robe in light wool fabric, neither too full nor too fitted and absolutely plain, providing added comfort. Pajamas should always be unicolored, or at most combine two colors. Here again the woman with an unerring dress sense will know what shades ere best suited to this type of garment.

Coffee Cake Easily Made at Low Cost BY SISTER MARY NEA Service Writer COFFEE cakes- have a strong appeal for most people and can easily be made in the home kitchen. Eggs, butter, sugar and imagination and time added to plain ordinary bread dough will produce the most delectable coffee cakes at small cost. If the dough is started early in the rrorning, the cakes will be ready for baking by lunch time or early afternoon. An extra amount of yeast is used to hasten the rising process. If you have a rule for yeast bread using the sponge method, which uses less yeast and lets the sponge rise over night, add the sugar and shortening and eggs after the sponge has risen until light. 4 Inexperienced bread makers will find the rule and method below very easy to follow. a tt COFFEE CAKE Two cups of compressed yeast, 11-3 cups milk, 3 eggs, 1 tablespoon salt, % cup sugar, 1-3 cup shortening, Wi cups of bread flour. Scald the milk in double boiler and cool to lukewarm temperature. Soften yeast cakes in M cup cooled milk and then add to rest of milk. Add eggs, sugar and salt and beat with a dover beater until smooth. Add butter, whh has been softened, but not melted!%Add flour and mix until smooth. Turn on to a floured molding board and knead ten or fifteen minutes. Put into an oil mixing bowl and brush top with melted butter. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk. The temperature should be kept about 80 degrees F. It will take about two hours for the dough to rise. Knead “down” and let rise again for one hour. Now the dough is ready to shape in any of the rings or cakes wanted. ' tt tt ft PHILADELPHIA CINNAMON BUN Put dough on to a floured molding board and roll into an oblong sheet about one-half inch thick. Spread with melted butter and cover with Vs cup granulated sugar mixed with 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Sprinkle with 2 cups cleaned currants and roll up like a jelly roll. Roll firmly but be careful not to disturb the sugar and fruit. When rolled, press the edge down to prevent unrolling. Cut into slices about an inch thick. Plac6 in an. oiled and floured pan, cut side up. Cover with a clean towel and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk, about one hour. Cook two cups of sugar and one-half cup of .water until the syrup turns pale straw color. Pour syrup over bun and put into oven. Bake one hour in a moderate oven—3so degrees F. Whirligig rolls are made of the same dough, but without the cinnamon and currants. Roll the dough into a rectangular sheet twice as long as it is wide. Spread half the sheet with creamed butter and roll up like a jelly roll. Then turn the whole upside down and spread the remaining half with creamed butter and roll up toward the center like a jelly roll. Cut through both, rolls in slices about an inch thick. Place in a baking pan and let rise until double in bulk. Then bake twentyfive minutes in a hot oven. MICHIGAN VISITORS GUESTS AT DINNER Dr. and Mrs. W. M.

Artist Will Be Heard by Bahai Class Four lectures on the Bahai spiritual movement for universal peace and brotherhood of nations will be given Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday by Juliet Thompson of New York, before members of the Bahai study class at the Lumley tearoom. Three classes consisting of approximately fifty members have been organized by Dr. Lillian K. Sielken during the last six months. They meet every Monday night at the Lincoln. Anew class met at Dr. Sielken’s home, 3513 Guilford avenue, this morning, with Miss Thompson as speaker. Wednesday night at 8, Miss Thompson will speak on “The Ideals of the New Age;” at 3 Thursday on “The New Vision of Immortality;” at 3 Saturday on “What Price Brotherhood?” and at 8 Saturday on “The Universal Consciousness of Christ.” Miss Thompson Is Artist On New Year’s day Mrs. Ovid Butler Jameson will receive at hei home, 1038 North Pennsylvania street, frem 4 to 6, in honor of Miss Thompson, Dr. Sielken and Dr. Amelia Keller, also a leader of the movement in Indianapolis. Miss Thompson, who is an artist by profession, has conferred with Abdul Baha, son of the founder of the philosophy, while he was imprisoned at Acca Palestine for his belief by the autocratic leader of Persia. She again visited him after his release in Europe and in Washington, where Alexander Bell was host to him. Miss Thompson has painted a portrait of Baha, which she considers her best work. In 1927 she painted Mrs. Calvin Coolidge at the White House. The Bahai movement was started in 1844, by Baha’O’llah, whose son, Abdul Baha, carried on after his death in prison. He taught that the people must realize the oneness of the human family. Movement Not Socialistic Among the principles he advocated were establishment of a world court, universal disarmament, economic adjustment through which the extremes of wealth and poverty would disappear, equality of men and women, universal education and co-operation to take the place of competition. This theory of economic adjustm:,nt was not socialistic, according to Miss Thompson. When science and religion approach each other and agree, he predicted that a great unifying and cleansing force will sweep the world. Among famous adherents to the belief are Count Leo Tolstoy, Dr. Percy Stickney Grant, Dr. William N. Guthrie, clergyman; Queen Marie of Rumania, Rabindranath Tagore, Albert Einstein, Alfred W. Martin, lecturer and author, and Kahlil Gibran, author of “Jesus, Son of Man.” Mrs. Lemaux Entertains at Bridge Party Mrs. Irving Lemaux entertained with a luncheon bridge party today at her home, 4550 Park avenue, for her daughter Frances, a student at University of Wisconsin, and Miss Mary Evans Caperton.
