A major who was dropped by the army not long ago. for Silly-dallying With local Nazzys—is now connected in some way with the state dep’t. Next thing on the market will be bottled soda pop with a straw already inside and ready for use when the bottle is opened. Ex-U. S. Attorney General Jackson was the gov’t official who arranged the swap of newspaper men Allen and Hottelet for Nazi agents Zapp and Tonn. The Herald Trib’s revelations of the un-American activities here by Vichy agents probably will get them expelled . . .

NEW WAYS FOR YOUR BAKING DAYS (See Recipes Below)

raisins? Muffins golden and plump standing high in peaks? Scones spread with jam or jelly? Why, of ’course, they’re yummy, and what’s better, they can all be

made in a jiffy. With the cooler weather setting in, you homemakers can return the hot breads and their baking into your schedules. Or is there a bake sale or a bazaar. included in the fall and winter schedule of your church or club activities? Nothing will fill the bill quite so nicely as a few trays of freshly baked biscuits, rolls, and bread. Although cakes and pies can be baked at home by individual members, these hot breads can be made, oh, so' quickly right in the church kitchen because they need only a few supplies and a few minutes to bake. They’ll give your display a more complete array of baked goods and will also be a good substantial contrast to the fancier displays. To make things easy, serve them in pans (if you can spare them) to save time in making, displays. If you’re planning a sale of bakery goods, have one section of a table set aside for selling individual pieces of cakes, pie, cookies, or a roll. When pec pie realize how delicious a mouthful is, they can hardly resist buying a bagful. As a good starter, . consider the possibilities of the humble bakingpowder biscuit. Baking Powder Biscuits. (Makes 12 biscuits) 2 cups flour 2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder teaspoon salt 4 tablespoons butter or shortening M-ilk to mix Sift the flour once, measure, 'add baking powder and salt, then ’cut in shortening. Add'milk and mix'just enough to hold together in large flakes. Pat to Ji of an inch thickness on a floured board and cut with a biscuit cutter.. Bake in a hot oven (450 degrees) 12 to 15 minutes. * Butterscotch Rolls. Make baking-powder biscuits as given in the recipe above and pat
on floured board. Brush with melted butter, sprinkle generously with brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll as for jelly roll and cut in Vi-
inch pieces. Put V 2 teaspoon of butter and 1 teaspoon of brown sugar in each muffin pan- and lay the pieces of rolled dough on top of them. Bake 20 to 25 minutes in a hot oven (400 degrees).
LYNN SAYS: Quick breads require less at--tention than yeast breads, but there are a few pointers about them you ought to bear in mind. Beware of overmixing the batter or dough. ’ For the baking powder variety work the fat into the flour or mixed dry ingredients only until mixed. Then stop, . quickly. Mix in the milk with a few whirls, ’ but do not overstir unless you want tough, leathery biscuits. The secret of good muffins is to mix the batter only until blended. Even the egg should be only slightly beaten. If you want the muffins high in peaks, add a tablespoonful or two of extra flour to the recipe. Honey, jam and jelly are indicated for muffins as grand pick-ups for meals. Always measure ingredients unless you have the extraordinary quality of guessing accurately. There is such a thing, but it is rare, So remember to use standard measuring cups and spoons. ■Measurements are level unless otherwise stated. Ovens for most quick breads are hotter than for the yeast varieties. Set the meter correctly when heating and do not put batter or dough in until the oven has reached the desired temperature.

Drastic Millinery Changes For Autumn Fashion Parade By CHERIE NICHOLAS IL i naSil M Ilk
DREPARE to see drastic innova- * tions in millinery fashions this season. Perhaps the most significant and startling is the new coverup look .that is achieved through curtain drapes, snood fantasies and various other intriguing devices. There is an endless number of new silhouettes on the fall program, which carries the assurance of every one, being becomingly hatted this season. Basic hats are all on the list, so you can be utterly conservative in your choice. You will find your favorite beret on the list, all types of draped turbans, pillbox shapes galore, bonnets from Dutch to frontier-woman types, sailors wide of brim or not, mushrooms and cloches (very face-framing this year) also calots in versatile pleasing interpretations. However these simply give start to the current ‘millinery story. The big thrill is the revolutionary interpretations that daring designers are giving to the various type hats, through amazing back - curtain effects, cover-up devices and picturesque drapes. This all seems to convey a new message of “more hat than hair” in direct contrast to the long bobs showing as heretofore. Below to the right, in the group illustrated is a very new pompadour pillbox type made of sheered felt that achieves outstanding distinction and sophistication, via a cbarse-mesh net snood draping, so voluminous it extends over the shoulders. Note also the decorative metal band ornament, from beneath which, the snood emanates in gathered fullness. Another hat that is making conversation in the fashion world is the profile beret. The hat below to .the left, is typical of this new trend.
Luxury Blouse i Fi ? SMw. -1 ? SSl! iwf 11 ' ; I * Evening and dressy afternoon Blouses stress the luxury note more importantly than it has been for many past seasons. This, distinguished blouse has an elaborate embroidery treatment expressed in multi-colored sequins, beads and metal threads. The use of rich and glittering embroideries for the new evening jackets follow the same trend. The new deep armhole seams so modish this fall, present endless opportunity to introduce ornate embroidery schemes. Sweater V Necklines Sweaters have become a campus and schoolgirl hobby. The fashion that stands pre-eminently forth as a favorite is the long torso pullover sweater with a deep V-neckline. The “big idea” is to wear this sweater in lightweight soft cashmere yarns over a smartly styled tweed skirt.
The dramatic pose given to dashing berets, to achieve a smart new look is perfectly demonstrated in this model, which is a black skirt-felt shape worn to accent the new profile silhouette. That there are many ways of wearing the popular beret, adds to its popularity this season. Not only is the profile beret outstanding but emphasis is also given to huge berets worn back on the head in pompadour fashion. A tremendous revival of feather trims is announced, which is another “reason why” hats take on a different look these days. Not only does fashion place “a feather in your cap” but'entire hats are made of feathers. And a perfect riot of feathers enliven the new fall felts, while dressy headgear will flaunt feathers im gayest mood. The little hat above, to the left, is typical of little feminine millinery confections, that call for cunning veils and the use of hatpins. One characteristic’ feature of town and country wide-brim felts, is that crowns go towering to any height, as you see in the model pictured in the upper right corner. In this instance, a striking hat-and-bag en semble has been achieved with twotoned felt, bright blue and red glove stitching. Blue and red combina tions is a “last word” broadcasting from fashion centers, not only for hats but for the entire costume. Sportsfelts are very wide of brim this season and have a nonchalant swagger picturesqueness about them that is most intriguing. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.)
Two-Piece Effect For Fall-Winter The two-piece effect whether simulated or actually so, is outstand ing this season. Sometimes the skirt is seamed to a long-torso middylike top so that it has the appearance of a two-piece, though it really is a one-piece. This type is particularly slenderizing to the figure inclined tt> curves. Then the new tunic costumes interpret the two-piece vogue, being actually t'wjo-.piece versions and not camouflaged. Tunics are running a big vogue, some straight-lined, others with a flare. Peplums sewed on at the waistline make another interesting approach to the modish two-piece fashions. Youth seeks the peplum effects for they are especially adapted to slender hips but the more mature figure glories in the straight tunics and long torso bodice tops. Fall Fashion Program Includes Lace Neckwear Emphasis on lace neckwear accessories continues as important fashion news. The fact that classic simplicity is the rule for daytime dresses of sheer wools and smart velveteens, has caused a revival or rather sustained interest in lovely feminine lingerie neckwear touches. New in the present showings are deep lace-trimmed collars with half sleeves of matching lingerie to be sewed into bracelet-length sleeves. Sequins and Appliques Trim Fine-Mesh Veils Veils will be very ornate this season, with glittering accents of sequins or appliques of tiny felt flowers. Some are dotted with tiny suede stars. Very fine mesh veils prevail, some of which are bordered with spangles, others having rows of heavy chenille to finish them off.
