MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Times Fashion Editor

EASTER, may be over officially for the grown-ups but Jewel’ Jean and Buddy Lain decided to dress up in Sunday’s best bib and tuckei l in honor of the annual egg rolling fete on the White House lawn today. Since such tiny pairs of feet can’t carry them so far on short notice

they are on their way to stage a celebration of their very own! They are as smart little fashion plates as you’ll find anywhere and carried off the honors in the Easter parade at their house yesterday. u an BUDDY takes his new white cotton knit suit quite seriously... and hasn’t the remotest idea how hugable he looks in the little French knit beret, made to match his suit. Even the chickie he clasps

so tightly is duly impressed with his Easter ~0g5... and there’s not a “cheep” out of him. Jewel Jean, in the British tradition, struts proudly in a crisp white taffeta princess line dress, splotched with nickel-sized navy dots. Mother has warned her against stumping her toe while wearing this spotless, white wool basket weave coat with halo hat to match. She will be as careful as any little girl can be for these clothes are all spanking brand new...fresh from a local shop. She’s proud to be wearing such fashion-right colors as navy on white... with white gloves just like all the big girls wear. Small wonder she’s beaming!

GOOD TO EAT BY LOLA WYMAN

ON SPUING RHUBARB T ONG pink and green stalks of rhubarb always mean spring to me. Now your grocer has plenty of it, so let’s discuss it today. First of all, let me tell you about making a rhubarb sauce—or what is simply known as stewed rhubarb. Be sure you do not add the sugar until the plant is cooked tender. Not long ago a reader wrote me that it took so much sugar to make the sauce sweet enough for her family to eat that she couldn’t afford to use rhubarb at all. I found that she was cooking the sauce and sugar together. So I told her to add the sugar just before taking the rhubarb off the fire. Then let it come to the boiling point and remove at once. This makes a deliciously sweet and delicately flavored sauce. This first spring rhubarb is usually so tender that it does not need to be peeled at all. As the- season advances, the skin grows tough and stringy and should be removed. Simply cut the plant in inch pieces, add just enough water to cover the bottom of the pan and cook just a few minutes until the plant is tender. Then add the sugar. RHUBARB upside-down cake 1 pound rhubarb. 2 tablespoons butter. 2 eggs. 1 cup sugar. 1 cup flour. 2 teaspoons baking powder. M teaspoon salt. % cup hot water. Vt teaspoon vanilla. Wash the rhubarb and peel if necessary. Cut in inch lengths. Melt the butter in a large frying pan and add the rhubarb MISS LEIPER TO BE PARTY GUEST Mrs. Jack Burke is to entertain with a crystal shower and bridge party tonight in honor of Miss Helen W. Leiper, bride-to-be. Miss Leiper, daughter of Mrs. H. P. Leiper, is to be married to James L. Kelly, Richmond, April 25. in McKee Chapel, Tabernacle Presbyterian Church. Guests are to include Mesdames Paul J. Perrin, John J. Long, Paul Rowe and Misses Mary E. Leiper, Mildred Dietz, Aileen Geraghty, Ann Reardon and Doris Whelan. 2 Pairs of Ladies' Full-Fashioned $ j Silk Hosiery Kinney’s Shoe Store 138 East Washington Street OUR PERMANENTS Are Guaranteed Until Your Hair Grow* Out With, Our New French Hair Solution • SI ud French—Man ' ■ “ { IffcAaT Hair Cutter ■ \ and atyii&t Hr'-S'S Smile Beauty Shop 82* Matt.

Keep warm while preparing the batter. Beat yolk of eggs until thick and add half the sugar, continue beating. Beat in the hot water and remaining sugar. Mix and sift flour, salt and baking powder and add to first mixture. Fold in whites stiffly beaten. Add vanilla and pour over rhubarb. Bake 40 minutes in moderate’oven (350). Serve with whipped cream, sweetened and slightly flavored with vanilla. s Sprinkle the rhubarb with sugar when cake is turned upside-down on a serving plate.

makes friends easily, but she isn’t popular with the opposite sex oecause she is too bold ahd boisterous. She is a young lady trying to grow up but who still has childish actions. We are all members of the same church choir and attend choir rehearsals regularly, except this girl who cuts practice to stag a dance hall alone. We are not “prisyprims.” We enjoy dances and parties as well as she, but we don't pout and make life miserable when we have to spend an evening at home. She wants to be on the go all the time. She doesn't like to be lectured about these things and when we try to reason with her, she ignores us. Please tell us what we, her best friends, should do to help her.— T. C. N. CLUB. * Answer—Something in the young lady's home life accounts for all these actions. It may be something difficult to detect, but it is there, nevertheless. I will tell you what to look for and you can ferret it out for yourself, with eyes sharpened by sympathy. Does she have brothers and sisters, one oi even two of whom outshine her in something? Sometimes the eldest child in the family unconsciously resents the appearance of rivals in other children. Sometimes the youngest of a group feels the strain of keeping up with those who came before, whereas the child in the middle bracket is in the competitive position of all because the older ones are continuously running ahead and the younger ones are forever catching up in the rear. A child in any one of these positions at home might well make a break for a spot unpeopled be competitive relations. Now let us suppose she is an only child with no competition at home. Are her parents happy together or is there an undertone of discord from which she longs to escape? Even if the trouble is unspoken it can be keenly felt by a sensitive girL Do the parents dote on the girl too much and over-protect her to the extent that she pulls at the tether in emphatic determination to have a life of her own at any price. To reverse the case again, do her parents ignore her except to put some conventional prohibition on her conduct? It may be that she fancies one or the other or both do not love her as deeply as other girls are loved and that she feels that she must compensate by other conquests, however cheap. Is she over-devoted to her father and does he sometimes side with the mother against her in a way which drives her to succeed at dance halls to ease a sense of failure at home? The knowledge that she has defied her mother may give her much secret satisfaction and make her feel that she has slid out from under maternal influence at last. Remember this: That only a secret sense of insecurity and a deep-seated feeling of inferiority makes her bold and boisterous. She knows no other way at present to attract attention to a self whom she feels would be otherwise ignored. She doesn’t see enough boys at home, or can’t have them to herself at home, or she wouldn’t search for them in dance halls. Study the situation from the angles which I have suggested and write me again.
