Homemaking—

Oven-Cooking Is An Economy It These Tips Are Followed

——

EXPERTS IN HOUSEHOLD MANAGEMENT agree that oven-cook-ing is an efficient way of preparing a supply of food in a comparatively | short time and is an economy of time, effort and fuel well worth putting | § into practice today when war-time activities of one kind or another have been added to the housewife’'s many regular duties. Just as every one now wants to get maximum value out of all food. so should the homemaker cooking with a gas range plan to get every bit of value out of every bit of fuel she uses. Substantial economies may be effected through oven-cook-ing as follows: 1. Have food ready for baking by the time the oven is preheated to the wanted temperature. Meats can

‘War Brides’ Still Cling To Tradition

Weddings Up 509; Says Bridal Expert

By ROSEMARY REDDING

Today’s bride-to-be still clings to the traditional white satin gown and those orange blossoms despite the fact that her fiance has just received word he must be in camp next week and consequently the wedding must be a “hurry up” affair. That's the word from Mrs. Alexandra Potts, editor of Bride's Magazine. She should know for she recently completed a nation-wide survey on trends in bridal fashions. |She is at Block's this week and will 'stage a showing of bridal fashions at 2:30 p. m. Saturday in the store's auditorium. Eighty-two per cent of the “war brides,” in fact, want traditional

weddings.

tunity even though it doesn’t come up to fairy tale expectations. How else can you gather experience and widen your contacts? A good background is a great aid to be sure, but plenty succeed without it. After all when a boy goes calling he is not exactly in search of a model room but wants the companionship of a friendly, interested girl. Your disinterest in boys is your real trouble. Don't dodge your next date but see what you can do to make the young man have a pleasant evening. JANE JORDAN.

One million a year has been the usual number but statistics point to about a million and a half this year. Her survey of the last six months shows that about one-third of the weddings today are of girls marrying young men leaving for the service. “Few of the marriages are due to an effort to escape the draft,” she points out. “After all that isn’t any

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am a girl 17 years old and have been [told that I am pretty. My clothes are as nice as any of my friends’. However, I sit at home every night while my girl friends are out on dates. One girl has made a date for me several times but I always break them at the last minute. One reason I do this is that my home is not furnished as well as some of my friends’. Another reason is that I do not care for the type of boy she gets for me. About a month ago I had one date with a man I can’t get off my mind. I know he doesn’t care for me and never will. Should-I blow out the torch T am carrying for this boy and accept the dates my friend gets me? Should I feel ashamed to ask boys to my home or just be patient and wait for my dream prince?
