SILK ENSEMBLES AND SUITS; STRIPES ARE NOW FASHIONABLE ____s:<W ; /*X \ 1 Hl siTi? i 9

FOR Bummer town wear, the suit or ensemble of silk, ur of silk with a slight wool mixture, is> outstanding in the mode. Now that fashionables are thinking in terms ot silk for their street costumes, the theme becomes of infinite interpretation. In the procession of silk suits and ensembles which are crowding into the style picture, one sees a versatile showing ranging from tailored jacket-and-skirt satin types, the same being of Parisian inspiration, to most beguiling three and four-piece versions, some of crepe, others of taffeta, bengaline or moire, while still others are of an interesting and novel class of fabrics which interweave some wool with silk. The three-piece ensemble in the picture .marks the introduction of taj. which is an entirely new fabric of unusual qualities produced by a weave of cashmere and silk. The effect is of a light

tropical cloth. The coat of natural ecru color is lined with the material striped in wide green stripes to match the smart blouse. The ends of the stripes at the edge of the coat are left fringed to add a bit of decoration to the otherwise tailored effect. The skirt is made with deep plaits. Suits of silk crepe as well as those ot black satin register frequently tn the style parade. Beige is a favorite tone for the crepe costume and it is usually carried out in the monotone even to the accessories worn with it. The navy shtin or crepe suit is frequently complemented with either a red. white or beige blouse. With the suit or ensemble of black sarin the gayest of gay prints are favored for the blouse. Another of the silken suits whose soft silhouette furnishes a relief from the severe cloth tailleur. uses marine blue taffeta for the youthful jacket and skirt, with a jumper of white crepe, the same appliqued with a bordering of red taffeta

stripes. Quite a patriotic color combination this, and one which fashion emphasizes in many ways. The vogue for the ensemble costume redounds to the glory of the separate blouse. Wherefore considerable of the planning of the vacation wardrobe must necessarily center around the theme of the blouse. Nor is the blouse to be considered only from a utilitarian standpoint, for this season it is as often expressed in terms of extreme dressiness as in terms of practical service. This favor for the blouse de luxe is directly due to the fact that two-piece stylings now carry prestige for both evening and daytime wear, which is really an innovation considered in the light of modes which have gone before. At mention of the dressy formal blouse, imagination Immediately visions most beauteous creations of allover lace, for the lace blouse ranks among the idols of fashion. Those of

tinted lace are the loveliest, and they are tuned to complement the skirt over which they are posed. A soft green georgette for the finely plaited skirt,, or it may be in flesh color, aquamarine blue or other of the newer shades; this with a blouse of lace In perfect match color, the entire topped with a coat of the identical georgette as that of which the skirt is made—such fantasies as this it is which are lending enchantment to the summer scene. But we digress. What we started to tell about is the importance ot stripes in the mode, if is the fashionable thing, nowadays to attend, the daytime bridge party—in stripes, to play tennis and golf—in stripes, or perhaps to stroll the flowered paths which lead to ttie country club —in stripes. It is indeed a fashionwise person who elects to wear stripes this season. Which accounts for the fact that the originals of the handsome blouses here

pictured are included in the summer wardrobe of that always stylishly gowned screen artist. Laura La Plante. In the picture to the right Miss La Plante is wearing a charming outfit ot gray and rose silk. The blouse which is of striped rose and gray silk is en riched with a narrow silver belt. The sports blouse to the left is of multi colored stripes, navy predominating. The diagonal styling of these stripes adds to their attractiveness. Other new ideas in stripes stress tricolor, which is fashion’s latest whim, also ombre effects, which reveal exquisite blendings. Gay striped summer-weight flannel is very popular for the sports frock. In these models the blouse is usually sleeveless and for it the stripes are made up horizontally, armhole and neckline being finished wirh contrary stripes. The plaited skirt carries ver tical stripes. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. <©. 1928. Western Newspaper Union.)

GOOD THINGS TO EAT Baked beans are enjoyed at any set son of the year; here is one kind which is not ordi-

nary: Spanish Beans. —Soak a pint of red kidney beans over night and in the morning parboil them and drain well. Peel and cut into pieces

five or six medium-sized tomatoes, or use a pint of stewed ones, add one onion chopped and a few shreds ot a clove of garlic. Place the beans in a stone bean jar, add the vegetables and fill the dish with boiling water. Add a tablespoonful or two of butter, cover and simmer in the oven for several hours, adding more water if needed. Half an hour before serving add a pimento cut into bits, a small green pepper chopped, three teaspoonfuls of salt, a half teaspoonful each of pepper and paprika and a dash of cayenne pepper. Thicken with a tablespoonful each of butter and flour rubbed together. Return to the oven and cook fifteen minutes longer. Serve in the casserole. Parsnip Puff.—Pare six parsnips, cut them into thick slices and boil in salted water until tender. After the parsnips are nearly done add three potatoes cut into quarters and cook until tender. Drain and mash, beating thoroughly; add one-fourth cupful of cream in which one-half teaspoonful of baking powder has been added with a, tablespoonful of butter, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one-fourth tea-; spoonful of pepper. Turn the puff; into a hot frying pan well buttered,! brown and cover with one-fourth cup-’ ful of cheese and turn. .Serve when, well browned on both sides. Breton Soup.—Peel and chop four, large onions and two small carrots. But into a soup kettle with three tablespoonfuls of butter, cook until, the onions are brown. Sprinkle with one-half teaspoonful of salt and onefourth teaspoonful of sugar. Add one quart of water, cover the kettle and' cook for two hours; as it simmers add more water. Cut the thinnest possible slices of bread, spread with butter before cutting, and lay one slice in each bowl. Pour over the soup,, taking care that the vegetables are evenly distributed. Miscellaneous Good Things. To serve a perfectly • round and shapely poached egg, greasg a frying

pan and fill it with water and place in it buttered muffin rings. Add a teaspoonful of salt and when boiling hot break an egg into each ring. Cover quickly and let stand three minutes. Pick up the egg and muffin ring on a skimmer. Drain

each egg before placing it on the platter or toast. Florentine Eggs. —Have ready two quarts of spinach which has been thoroughly washed and cooked in only the water which clings to it; season, when cooked tender, with butter, salt and pepper. Keep the spinach hot while poaching six eggs and preparing one cupful of white sauce. Place the spinach on a hot platter; on this arrange the eggs and pour over each a spoonful of the white sauce. Golden Fricassee.—Boil a large fowl until tender, adding a bit of sliced onion and celery while cooking. Gut into neat pieces for serving, discarding the bones. Place in a double boiler to keep hot. Make the following sauce: In a saucepan melt three tablespoonfuls of butter, add four tablespoonfuls of Hour and when bubbling add gradually two cupfuls of strong chicken broth: add salt, pepper and celery salt to taste and a little grated onion. When boiling pour the sauce over the well-beaten yolks of two eggs. Place the chicken on a platter and surround with nicely seasoned rice, potato or spaghetti. Pour the golden sauce, over the chicken and some over the border. Dot with hits of minced pimento and chopped parsley. Stuffed Green Peppers.—Pack parboiled green peppers into a buttered dish, after removing the seeds and white fiber; fill with cooked fowl, a few chopped mushrooms or a little of any cooked vegetables like peas, celery or carrots. Moisten liberally with white sauce, using some of the broth. Cover with buttered crumbs and bake until well browned. Scalloped Stuffed Eggs.—Cook the eggs in the shell and when cool remove the shells and cut into halves lengthwise, remove the yolks, mash the yolks with melted butter, add a tablespoonful or two of minced ham or tongue, season with mustard, salt and pepper. Refill the cavities and press the halves together. Prepare a rich white sauce, adding a half cupful of cream, place the eggs in a baking dish and pour around the sauce. Serve when thoroughly hot. Too long cooking will toughen the cheese. 'ytuxCc.

RADIO

Loud Speaker Volume Is Provided by New Tube A still larger and more powerful amplifier tube is announced by ttie Radio Corporation ot America, li is desig- , nated as the UX-250 power amplifier, 1 and is capable of delivering over three times as much undistorted energy as- : the UX-210. long the favorite power amplifier tube for maximum volume and tone quality ip home reception. The UX 250 is considerably larger in ! size than the UX-210. although its base is identical. The'filament o’s the new power amplifier tube is ot the improved coated ribbon type, which insures great mechanical strength and long operating life. The plate, which is blackened, is tali and narrow, as in the UX-281 rectifier tube. The standard UX dr push type base is used on the new power tube. This new tube will provide a far greater loud speaker volume, without distortion, than has heretofore beerv possible, especially in conjunction tvith auditorium loud speakers and in the operation of a plurality of loud speakers from a common amplifier,'as in hospital and exposition work. It isinteresting to note that while the platevoltage bas not been materially increased over that of the UX-210. the required plate current is three times as great as for the UX-210. Obviously, while the new tube is capable of enormous volume —tar more than vaa be utilized in the largest of living rooms—it is unnecessary to operate it at full output. Instead, it may be employed at but a fraction of its full capacity, thus securing undistorted output at all times with'ample reservepower. It is this reserve ot power which gives that character to refine duction referred to as “dept b’’ or “timbre.” Secret Radio Speech Is Purpose of New Device An electrical machine which apparently understood and translated unintelligible sounds over radio into clear English, was included in demonstrations recently at the University of Wisconsin engineering building before » gathering of Madison units of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. Sergius P. Grace, telephone laboratory engineer, gave the demonstrations. , The machine was designed in connection with radio transmission systems to make conversations secret. Natural speech tones are distorted tomake them unintelligible to radio listeners. Then an electric pick-up transmitter is held in front of horn. The original speech in English was clearly understandable. » Mr. Grace also demonstrated and explained an artificial larynx, which enables persons who have lost their larynxes through surgical operationsto talk again. Other devices included a telephone receiver by which deaf persons can be taught to receive conversations as vibrations through the fingers, and methods of carrying long distance telephone calls economically over tine instead of heavier copper wires. 4 | FOR THE NOTEBOOK g A defective resistor causes scratchy noises. • • • Use mica condensers in resistance coupling. A socket antenna does not use current from the house circuit Keep the set away from electric lamps and their associated wires. • • • A meter ' is the scientific unit of length and is approximately 3 1-3 feet. 4 • • • A dry battery, when shorted, will cause the wax on top of the cells to melt. Grid leaks permit excess electrons to escape, bence prevent detector tube blocking. • • • B batteries must be kept In a relatively cool place in order to obtain maximum life. ♦ • • The best radio receiver ever produced is not pro<d- against rhe homeguard experimenter, rough handling or neglect. • • • Leakage is one ot the chief faults ot a poor grid condenser, ami one of high standard is about the most Im portant part in a receiver. , f • • A switch used on many electrical appliances for varying the current consumed can be used for connecting loud speaker in series or parallel. Antenna Tripks to Tune Out Annoying Stations When it is found impossible to tune out a near-by broadcasting station to get others farther away, try running the antenna at right angles to the aerial of the broadcaster and use a wave trap between the lead-in and the receiver. If this does not help, try a vertical antenna. It may be necessary to completely shield the receiver, batteries and all wires leading to the setexcept the antenna wire, in order to atop the pickup of energy except where it is desired in the antenna. Sets Can Be “Sharpened” Single control sets which tend to tune broadly ean be sharpened by using midget condensers across two sections of the multiple tuning condenser. The midgets should be placed on the condenses and that in the detector circuit. “C” Battery “C” battery reduces the drain on the “B“ battery ahotlt 4U pet cent, and minimizes distortion,
