Forty-two honorable mention. costumes also took part in thé style show sponsored by the National Needlecraft bureau. Average cost of the nine winning costumes was $16.75. ‘Most expensive to make was the gray woolen suit made by Mrs. Anne Cook of Kansas City, Mo,, at a cost of $28.80.

The other, made for less than $20 by teen-ager Patricia Redman, Coiumbus, wore a border of mink around its strapless top and came with a matching hood and shoulder | cape, also trimmed with mink.

Beauties’ Hints—

The Way-to ‘Make an Entrance’

By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer MAKING AN entrance is an art worth mastering. Actresses think so and they work hard at it. Trainers of models who devote whole class periods to entrancemaking think so, too. They realize the importance of first impressions. And they know that the way a woman enters a room will tell many ‘things about her to those who are meeting her | for the first time. ! Before you turn the doorknob, you should begin making your entrance, says Helen Fraser, director of the Barbizon School of Modeling. By that she means putting clothes in order; making ready with a smile ora pleasant expression.

” » ” IMPORTANT point she stresses is entering a room with “pres- | ence” but without fanfare. Pausing at the door after entering is a good idea, she says. It gives you a chance to look around, get your bearings, even pick an objective. Walking leisurely—not rushing

| —to a chosen spot in a room is

necessary if you want to give an impression of poise, according to Miss Fraser. If you approach a person, she tells you to stop before you get too near.. As she puts it: “You don’t want tp_overpower your m.” An approach, says Miss Fraser, is less. overpowering if you stop

A PAUSE at the doorway before entering a room adds poise. Arlene ("My Wild Irish Rose'') Dahl demonstrates.

“Too Mush Trimming Gives Dowdy Look’ “By EPSIE KINARD

NEA Staff Writer NEW YORK, June 16 —“That's

dishes of chicken curry which the waiter garnished. Handsome, bluff, plain-spoken Eugene K. Denton claims that 90 per cent of all women are. dowdy because they can't resist the trimmings. He was served a handy analogy by kd the waiter: Over the chicken curry Mr. Denton went a sprinkling of grated coconut, then grated orange, next chopped parsnips and after that chutney and a dab of glace nuts, _- “When a woman is smothered by trifies, her face and her personality have a hard time fighting their way out,” Mr. Dénton said. He blames the manufacturer Tor the gewgaws he tacks on and the woman for-the superfluous accessories she adds. The few women. who dress well use restraint. Mr. Denton gave that distinction to 10 per cent. According. to this style-wise merchant, it takes restraint to fight ‘down the savage instinct to let go in dress. Men have to fight it down when they choose ties. Women need to put up even a stiffer resistance, because .they have sequins, beads, nailheads, furbelows, “gingerbread and other bright trappings vying for their attention. ‘Savages Love Gauds’ Hanging in Mr. Denton's office, he told me, is a picture of a necklacewreathed Ubangi woman wearing a ring in her nose. This is used as a reminder to buyers and sales people, he-said, that the savage love of gauds which survives in most people is the enemy of good taste. Would he furnish examples of what he considered good and bad taste imr-dress? Indeed he would, And on twins, he insisted, who could best dramatize the difference. Leaving the luncheon table, we went to his store to pick clothes and dress the models. Both models were handed identical pure silk print dresses, simply and distinctively styled. Each was given a different set of accessories.

Proves His Point To prove his argument, the twin delegated to represent the woman of taste was given the correct acces sories to wear. A ‘plain black straw sailor, short beige gloves, a small black handbag and classic black pumps served as subordinate inter-

Turn into top of double boiler and place over hot water. Cook with constant stirring until custard coats':-a metal spoon. Remove immediately from fire and cool. Split the three layers of sponge cake so that six layers are uniform in thickness. Spread coffee custard between layers. Before placing top ‘layers on, cut 10 circles out of this layer close to the rim. Place on top and fill holes with coffee custard and replace cutouts in their holes. Let stand in refrigerator several hours so that cake absorbs custard. When ready to serve lift out cutouts and fill with sweetene whipped cream. Replace circles so the effect is that of 10 mushrooms saucily rooted on the top. Serve with more whipped cream. Serves 10.

To illustrate what happens when .|a woman gives into her savage love

of finery, the other twin was be-

accessories. Her flashy hat was cradled with veiling and topped with roses. She also modeled a sable scarf, a pair of arm-climbing colored gloves, ankle-strapped shoes, a mul-tiple-strand necklace and bracelet. Finally, an over-size bag was slung across the girl's shoulder so as to leave nothing undone in burying a | dress of fine fabric, distinctive styling and good workmanship.

Three Lights Better

For Bathrooms Bathroom lighting at its best should include a central ceiling fixture plus twin lights flanking the mirror. If, however, a bathroom is exceedingly small (less than 60 square feet), ceiling fixture and mirror lights, then the latter are a “must.” Preferably, mirror lights should be long tubular lamps—either fluorescent or lumiline—to give evenly distributed light from head to shoulders. they should be shielded. '

The Fabrics to Iron On the Wrong Side

While ironing techniques largely a matter of personal taste, §till the Westinghouse Home Economics institute recommends that the following types of fabrics shouid always be ironed onthe wrong side for. the reasons given: Dark-colored cottons and linens and all rayons (to prevent shine); satins (for even luster), and crepes and other raised weaves (to prevent flattening).
