FALL LUNCHEON As the leaves begin to crackle and fall’s favorite flower, the chrysanthemum, stirs in the sweet, smelling earth, and fruit hangs heavy and ripe on the trees—do your thoughts turn to lunpheons and bridge? If they do, prepare to have one now, using as your theme the leases,
fruits or flowers that fall has to offer as a welcome change from summer luncheons you may have had. If you are paving a preluncheon bridge, try carrying out
.<?sa
the fall theme on the bridge tables with small vases of fall flowers, in candies, and decorations. Favors can be had using the autumn theme and prizes may be wrapped in the burnished fall shades or tied with ribbons of that color. Whatever you do, have your tables and especially the ceqterpiece,stunning enough to stimulate interest and conversatipn. It'll make luncheon and bridge afterwards a real success, and star you as a smart hostess. Play up the oranges and yellow in food for luncheon, picking it up here and there in this dish and that with a touch of green to heighten interest. Do something, unusual in the main dish by having a frozen or cooked fish fillet lightly creamed and well garnished. Simple to fix, a dream to behold, yet delicate to taste, here’s your main dish: •Creamed Fillet of Flounder With Mushrooms. 2 packages quick frozen fillet of flounder; cooked or 2(4 c. Cooked fish * 214 c. fish liquor or light cream 214 cups sliced mushrooms 6 tablespoons butter 4 tablespoons flour Salt and pepper Watercress If using frozen flounder, cook in a saucepan, adding 1, cup boiling water and 14 teaspoon i salt, and codk until tender. If using cooked fish, be sure it is well drained. Flake fish. Cook mushrooms in butter, un-, til well browned, add flour. Add fish liquor and cream, gradually stirring constantly cook until thick. Add fish and seasoning. Serve on hot buttered toast.-or shells. Sprinkle with paprika Gar'nish with watercress. When vegetables, pretty the platter by serving both the green beans, cut in long, lengthwise strips, and the carrots cut lengthwise, side by side. Or have a mound of, carrots or in the center, and tjhen have alternating mounds of green bean and carrot strips coming out toward the Tim of the plate. If you were to take a poll among your luncheon guests, you would probably be surprised how many
LYNN SAYS: Sit up and take notice of fall’s possibilities for table decoration. Cornucopias and centerpieces of fruits and vegetables interlaced with burnished leaves and brightly colored flowers certainly have away with them and will do very nicely for your luncheon table. Take a tip from the outdoors and make the most a of the humble squash, apple, pear, or a spray of bittersweet. Let your fruit glisten and shine by rubbing with oil and then polishing to a high luster. For more permanent effects, have the fruit laquered. Arrange pears, apples and grapes on doilies of autumn leaves and set oh a mirror for the centerpiece, or have the fruit arranged from the opening of ti squash. Dusky red or bright chrysanthemums look effective if arranged in a small squash. . Any of these will give your table a smart note and also a piece of grand conversation for luncheon guests. Speaking of nice touches, put a leaf of deep rich red, brown, or yellow, or a bit of bittersweet to the side of a placecard. This will be just fine to carry out the autumn theme of the centerpiece.

Here’s a tread which highlights a luncheon perfectly and whose orange flavor gives just the right touch of piquancy to the meaj: ♦Orange Heney Bread.

If desired, % ’cup of candied orange peel may be added to the batter to give additional flavor, or may be substituted for the nuts. I shall pass lightly over the subject of salads. Ours today follow nearly the same pattern as recipes printed in old cookbooks. But I would like to give you a recipe for a dressing. Used on a salad of hard-cocked eggs, lettuce, chopped onions and sliced radishes it’s tops. Rub the yolks of two hard-cooked eggs together with 1 tablespoon of cold water until smooth. To this add 2 tablespoons of salad oil and 1 teaspoon each of salt, powdered sugar and prepared mustard, and blend well. Finally, add 2 tablespoons each of plain and tarragon vinegar.

M
into freezing trays anef stir every 15 or 20 minutes until firm. This may also be made in a crank freezer, but the amount should be doubled for the ordinary size of freezer. If you desire to vary this recipe, here are suggestions: Maple Ice Cream—Add maple flavoring to taste in place of the Manilla; about 6 drops will be needed. Butterscotch — Substitute brown sugar for the % cup of white sugar. Chocolate—Melt two squares cake chocolate and add to custard mixture. Four additional tablespoons sugar must be added as well. Peppermint — Peppermint flavoring, oil of peppermint and enough pink coloring to give the desired color are added. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.)

look like handsome jewels. Leather trims abound on\sports and travel togs. Take a look at 1941 autumn fashion showings and you will find a, new high in costume design. The play made on colors this season is simply fascinating and the big news is rich quality-kind materials, especially the new wool weaves that glorify the entire fashion picture. Most of all, there is that indescribale something about the new coats, suits and dresses, that is surpassingly goodlooking and assuring to women who dress with discriminating taste. Seeing a prevue of fashions as recently staged by The Style Creators of Chicago, one is especially impressed with the exquisite finesse and workmanship. And the lavish yet subtle use of intriguing surface decoration that marked the styling of the hundred -or more coats, dresses and ensembles presented at this gala occasion, by exhibiting members of this noteworthy organization. The foursome of fashions shown here were especially selected from this galaxy of smart fall costumes, selected because of their adaptability for smart town, travel, school and office wear. You will be wanting a tweed costume suit, of course. If it has a full-length topcoat, as pictured to the left at the top in the group and it will prove a many-purpose outfit that will give you infinite wear. The new raglan shoulder and above-the-waist bulkiness is well portrayed in this toast brown rough tweed. The long coat is closed with large wooden buttons and belted in crushed brown kidskin.

Feathers and Veilings Popular for Fall Hats You will be in fashion whether you wear a very large hat or a provocative little confection that plunges forward in a saucy tilt. The little hat is keeping veils in the picture. The newest arrangement calling for veils that mass at the back so as to accent the new back-cov-erage treatments. Most of the little hats have snoods to get that back-coverage look that milliners tell us is such an important style feature. If not snoods, then some other novelty that conceals the hair at the back. Larger brims are also shaped downward or curtained with ribbons so as to achieve the back-coverage look. It is a season for fine feathers of every description. Entire feather hats will be worn and on most bf the felts gay quills and pheasant feathers flaunt their bright colors. ‘Little Black Dress’ Is Still One Favorite The dressy afternoon black dress will be repeating its triumphs all over again this fall. Very charming types are fringe-trimmed. Others have wide bands of velvet as trimming. Then again very ultra types are made of fine fabric cut along the newest dolman-sleeve, loose-fitting blouse lines. They are classics in simplicity. The dressier blacks are with lace trims or with jet embroid.ety. However be the styling dressy or conservatively practical, the big news is that black remains steadfastly in the new autumn style pic* ture.
By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) REMEMBER when Colleen ■ Moore was trooping about the country with her dolls’ house? Well, if present plans go through Charles Boyer may soon be engagecTlh a slightly similar journey. He will make personal appearances with the openings in various cities of “Hold Back the Dawn,” and will also display his model of the city of Paris in theater lobbies and department stores. Valued at more than $50,000, the miniature city shows Paris as it was before the German occupation. Part of the proceeds of the tour will go to war relief organizations. When traveling, the city is housed in eight crates; setting it up keeps four men occupied for two days. Apparently everybody who saw Kathryn Grayson in that last Hardy film wanted to know what her next picture would be. Letters poured into the Metro studios, and out went the word that she will appear in “The Vanishing Virginian.” She’s but recently returned from her honeymoon—in private life she’s now Mrs. John Shelton—and will be back before the cameras soon. It’s rather a shock to realize that Hedy Lamarr has been resting for nearly eight months—hasn’t worked since “Ziegfeld Girl.” She’s beginning a new picture now, “H. M. ■BL'WH HEDY LAMARR Pulham, Esq.” based on the Marquand novel—it’s difficult to see how either of the two leading feminine roles can be twisted around to fit her, but stranger things are happening in Hollywood all the time. * . Maybe you’ll be crazy about the latest Walt Disney, “The Reluctant Dragon.” But a lot of us wish that Mr. Disney would abandon these long features and stick to good short ones. Both this one and “Fantasia” could be cut into several good shorts. In “Sullivan’s Travels 1 ’ you’ll see a Veronica Lake who’ll startle you —a boy hobo, apparently, in turtlenecked sweater, old cap, blue denim work trousers and a coat that’s too large for her. Her daughter’s birth interrupted her picture making for a while, but Paramount went right on making plans for her; she’ll be starred next in “This Gun for Hire/’ in which she’li portray a magician who becomes involved with a munitions magnate in a mysterious murder. Which means that she’U have to take lessons in the art of magic. Lewis Stone is taking time out from the “Judge Hardy” role, between the family chronicles, to play an army colonel in “Steel Cavalry,” the nevX Wallace Beery picture. But he’ll have to be careful not to do ’anything the Judge wouldn’t do, or the fans will protest. * ' . Charles Laughton (have you heard the new radio program, “Three Ring Time,” starring him and Milton Berle?) would have been an inn keeper if Laughton, Sr., had had his way. He placed Charles at Clar--idge’s, in London, to learn the hotel business. And his son learned one valuable thing—how to impress a haughty waiter. “Just order water and a poached egg on toast,” says he. Seems that it gets them down every time, especially if they’ve been urging champagne on you. The children who attend New York city’s public schools ought to find at least some of their lessons pretty enjoyable. They’ll be shown Warner Brothers’ national defense and his torical shorts as part of the curriculum. ODDS AND ENDS —Raymond Gram Swing has just bought a 250 acre farm halj-way up Putney mountain in Vermont ... As a youngster Bob Hope used to do imitations of Charlie Chaplin at church socials . . . Paramount’s "Air Raid” is a tale of adventure, love and murder during a practice blackout in an American city ... Richard W hors, who replaced John Garfield in (Varners "Bridges Built at Night,” has been re placed by Craig Stevens . . . Andy De vine will join radio’s Al Pearce and His Gang October 3rd . . .
