WOMAN'S WORLD Size of Wardrobe Depends on Personal Requirements By Ertta Haley Halter Top Dress TWO WOMEN WITH practically same activities hardly ever have the same amount of clothes in their wardrobe even though they may have approximately the same amount to spend on them. The size of the wardrobe depends on the number of changes you require as well as on the variety you feel you need. One girl on vacation can get along with a bathing suit, a sun dress with a cover-u- p jacket, an attractive aft-ernoon dress and an evening gown. Another will need two of each of these as well as a suit and possibly two coats. Those who want to get the most for their money and still keep in fashion will choose apparel for their double duty wear. This means se- - lecting clothes that can be worn in several different ways, or a coor-dinated wardrobe In which, for ex-ample, the coat belonging to a dress can be worn with one or two other dresses. Any clothing, whether it is chosen with a large or limited wardrobe in mind, should be picked with loving f I ! . . 1 V Is f j ' rt . pir : r. . I j Choose Cool Cottons In Two-Pie- Styles Wise shoppers will want to get a e dress for both traveling and town wear. Most of these are of the sunback variety that can be used for lounging about casually. Covered with a brief or bolero jack-et, they are cool for traveling, shop-ping or sightseeing. Jackets for these dresses are brief, either waist length or just slightly longer. Styles are numerous and it's best to fit on several to get something exactly right for you. In two-piec- e styles, you'll also want to investigate the dress and coat combinations for these have many fresh possibilities in them. Simple, bare-toppe- d or camisole strapped dresses are used with many of these coats, and the dress may be worn without the coat for dining or evening. Many of the coats in these styles, made, by the way, of cotton as are the dresses, can be worn with other dresses. The reefer styles or prin-cess models with their buttons down the front, are splendid cover-u- p for many dresses. Dark cottons are especially prac-tical for many of the dresses in these styles. Relieved with fragile and frosty white touches, they are crisp, sleek and smart Use Charming Pastels For Afternoon Wear Vacationers as well as the who want to look at their charming best during a quiet and restful afternoon will select fragile pastels and other sheer fabrics for their dresses. There's a great variety of fabrics from which to choose depending up-on the price you want to pay. Cot-tons are as sheer as silk, if you want something easily laundered at home, pastel linens with their crease and crinkle-proo- f qualities are excellent while silk organdy or organza is exceptionally lovely. Very sheer dresses often come with matching slips, included in the price of the dress, and this makes them an excellent purchase. Accessories tor dresses of this type are in keeping with the love-liness of the frock. You may wear a small flowered hat or a shadowy cartwheel and short white gloves. The bag and shoes may match or contrast, but they should be sum-mery. Busy Vacationers Need Play Clothes Whether you're spending vaca-tion, at home or going away on a trip, ' play clothes are definitely needed. It's true that many of these depend upon the kind of activity in which you engage, but you'll need some of at least one variety. Even those who say they want to spend their vacation sitting, usual-ly mean they like to see themselves sitting pretty, and not just sitting. Separates in denim with crisp white accents are usually the most prac-tical choice when no special activ-ity is planned. This budget - priced dress doubles for sunning as well as shopping when worn with its cover-u- p bolero. Made of Oxford gray ohambray with white pique jiiillsiil trimming, this halter top dress has slender lines with its but-tons down the front and the at-tractive collar lines. Shirred nylon makes an 'attractive style in a swimming suit, and many of these are cuffed with a strapless top, the prevailing popular style. - One-piec- e suits are. available for those who like their slimming Lines, and they may have such attractive details as halter piping and cuffed legs. Many two piece styles are pop-ular two for the younger set in gay prints and colors.

Fashion should not always be fol- - lowed to the last degree, either, for no matter how something is, it may not be for you. If arms are spindly and too thin, then, by all means, keep away from bare arms. This Season's Bathing Suits are Well Styled If this is your year to invest in a bathing suit, you'U find much good styling available. The suits are neither too fussy nor too strictly functional. For those who can choose only one suit, it's advisable to pick one of nylon that's quick drying. Those who can take two might like one of wool, and the other of cotton or rayon. with wellcbosen wardrobe, tivities. It's no longer essential to have two suits, one in which to swim, and the other in which to tan. moosetww Wjr Fruit Preparation Required Protessing Cut Mar iis s fa.- -r k Mart M1t Wash, pare, core, cut in piece: Drop in ilightly alted water.

Use this Routine for Canning THE SAME ROUTINE applies to all fruits, berries and tomatoes, the latter being included in this class rather than with vegetables Fruit Canning Is Easy FRUIT CANNING yields big for little effort, every homemaker admits when she goes to her canning shelf to load her .arms with a jar of pears for the luncheon salad, "yg - ' berries for pie, slrifi? fjffl r peaches for lM.f$ifm dessert.

Fruit canning is simple, too, be-cause the fruit requires only a short cooking time to prepare for the jars. This cooking before packing helps shrink the fruit to give a better pack and, at the same time, extracts some juices which may be used for packing.

Check, also, to see that you have enough suitable covers as well as jar rings, if you are using the cap and rubber closure. Fill the canner almost full of water the jars will take up some room, so it does not have to be completely filled, and turn on the fire so the water can start to come to a boil as you work on the fruit. Prepare the fruit with a thorough washing. Bacteria lodge in soil, and you want to get rid of this so that none will rub into the fruit as you pare or cut it. Use the chart for preparing the fruit for jars. If you want excel-lent results, you'll grade the fruit for size and ripeness as much as possible when packing jars. Fill one jar at a time to within FOR FRUIT canning, it's wise to choose fruits which reach full ma-turity on vines or trees in place of getting green produce which you have to ripen on the window sill or out on the back porch. Naturally ripened fruits and berries have firmness that makes them easier to handle as well as sweetness which can be acquired in no other way. Plan to can only the amount that you can handle efficiently for speed is required so there is no spoilage on the way to the jar. When fruit waits around after one step for another, it will be exposed to air and will lose much of its flavor and appearance. MAKING A WATER BATH THE USE OF a boiling water bath canner has been widely used and recommended for processing fruits since it gives such good re-sults.

C The vessel should have a cover which fits tightly so that you can cover it during processing and thus prevent the water from boil-ing away. Even so, it's a good idea to have a kettle of water bub-bling on the range to replace what-ever does boil away and escape in steam, as the jars must be well covered during the whole process-ing time. Whatever vessel is used for a canner such as described above LYNN SAYS: Use These Tips For Fruit Canning To help decide how many jars you'll need, use these figures as a guide. Two to two and one-ha- lf pounds of the following will give one quart canned produce: apples, apricots, peaches and pears. Heavy syrup gives the most luscious packs In canned fruits. Use three or four cups of sugar to a quart of water. Bring to a boil and cook just until sugar is com-pletely dissolved. y inch of the top with both fruit and syrup (or, fruit juice or water, as desired). Run a spatula down the inside of the jar to remove air bubbles. Wipe top clean and put on the jar, as directed by the man-ufacturer. Process and Cool Jars AS EACH JAR is filled it should be placed into the canner, without touching or giving them a chance to bump against each other. When the canner is full, check to see there is enough water to cover jars thoroughly. When water comes to a boil, start counting processing time. When time is up, lift the jars out on a folded cloth or several thick-ness of newspaper. Tighten those covers which need it, according to the type which you use. Fruit or berries which you plan to use for pie or as juice for jelly can be carined without sugar. You'U add this when the fruit or juice is used. The riper the fruit or berry the less it will need in the way of sweetening. However, allow at least some syrup for sweetening the fruit as you'U need liquid for filling the jars. Pick plums for canning just as they begin to ripen. If too ripe, hey wiU be mushy. If too green, they lack flavor.

Satisfaction CRAZY WATER CO, Wells, Texas.-- Ad KATHLEEN NORMS Arranged Marriage May Succeed TWO SCHOOL TEACHER Grace and Goldie Brooks, wrote me some years ago from their home in a small town near Duluth, to consult me about marriages that are made through matrimonial agencies. Their parents had recent-ly died, and their lives, they felt, had become narrow, dull and mon-otonous. "We love cooking and gardening," wrote Grace, "we keep a nice home, and have friends. But neither one of us has ever had a sweetheart, and we wonder why. Just of late it occurred to us that many an ar-ranged marriage has terminated happily, and that as we are too shy to let the men of our own town know that we would like to be married, yet we would not feel so with men who are deliberate-ly seeking good, loving wives. We certainly would not take any man, and we understand that 'we would be free to decline any proposal that did not appeal. But we both long for companionship, for the interest of talking over our households, hus-bands, and perhaps someday chil-dren with each other, and we feel that a wider life would give us more chance for development, and even-tually for service. Matrimonial Candidates In answer to this letter I wrote re-minding these sisters, that, being adults, they were quite able to judge ly attracted to a man from Mil-waukee. A quiet wedding followed, Kent being introduced to friends and neighbors as "a man our friend Mrs. Oliver knows." Immediately a man who had known both sisters for years an-nounced himself as extremely re-sentful, as, he said, he had loved Goldie for a long time, but had been waiting until her obligations to her mother and his to an old father, were somewhat less pressing. Goldie only could accept this with the com-placency of a bride, and the disap-pointed admirer elected himself to comfort Grace, afterward finding that she was the one he loved, after all. On their wedding trip they could act as godparents for Goldie's baby son; the sisters between them now have five children, and the whole venture ended happily and success-fully for everyone. Which is only to say, perhaps, that there is no harm in breaking out of the rut into which our days sometimes sink. This adventure usually belongs to girls and boys in their teens. , Some find congenial companions and open little bachelor-mai- d es-tablishments, sometimes not far from the home nest, but independ-ent, anyway. Grace and Goldie were not young, as love affairs go. They were sensi-- ble women, already experienced in guiding the young, and they knew they needn't have any dealings with charlatans and crooks and gay de-ceivers generally. The real danger of these matrimonial agencies is that to the young, curious, adoles-cent mind they present enormous fascinations. for themselves the merits and ap-peal of any matrimonial candidates, and that it might not be a mistake to investigate any responsible bureau in their neighborhood. But I also said that this line of business is a notoriously unreliable one, open to the unscrupulous and dishonest, and especially patronized by fortune hunters, men to whom even the Brooks girls' modest com- - "... we love cooking ..." fort would be worth plundering. Several happy wives wrote me that theirs had been matrimonial bureau marriages when I wrote of this sub-ject somexyears ago, and many Eu-ropean marriages are arranged this way. One of my close old friends In New York was an Irish woman who had married a man on the very day set for his marriage to her cousin. The cousin drew out at the last moment, and my friend, then a saucy 18, volunteered to marry Dan and go with him to America the next day. Seven fine children, two priests, a silver and golden wedding were the happy results of this ven-ture. But It has to be remembered that in these European marriages the religion, background and environ-ment are aU familiar to the arrang-ing mothers and fathers, whereas in Matrimonial-agenc- y marriages a far greater chance is taken. Quiet Wedding WeU, to get back to the Brooks sisters. They went into Duluth, and consulted a Mrs. Oliver, a middle-age- d, motherly sort of woman who never openly advertises, but has a good reputation as Cupid's agent. After some negotiating she sent them some letters, and the sister I have caUed Goldie became deep- - j . THE READER'S COURTROOM , i Be Aware of Dry Ice Danger 1 By Will Bernard, LL.B. Is it Negligence to Throw a Piece Of Dry Ice into the Street? Having sold out his stock, an ice cream vendor tossed a left-ov-piece of dry ice on the street and headed for home. Some children playing nearby picked up the steaming object and put it in a bottle. Then, in an experimental mood, they added a little water, screwed on the bottle top, and shook well. It wasn't long before Is a Storekeeper Liable For Shaking His Fist In a Customer's Face? A man bought a sweater for his wife. However, it didn't fit proper-ly and she decided to return it. By an unfortunate mistake, the woman took the garment back to the wrong store and demanded a refund. The merchant was furious. He not only ordered her out of the store but also shook his fist undfr her nose to emphasize his feelings. Later the woman sued him for as-sault. The merchant protested: "I had a perfect right to get sore. She was trying to palm off some-body else's goods on me." But the court held the man liable. The judge said that, whether he was right or wrong in the argument, he still had no cause to threaten the woman with physical violence. May You Shoo Pests Over To Your Neighbor's Property? A farmer was standing in his cornfield when he spied a swarm of locusts approaching. To protect his property, he managed to shoo the pests away and they settled instead on the neighboring farm. the expanding gases burst the con- - tainer, and a small boy was in jured by Dying glass. When he sued the vendor for damages, the latter argued: "How could I fore-see that children would go to such lengths in playing with a discarded piece of dry ice?" But the court held him liable for the mishap. The judge said the vendor should have known that the ice was both fas-- i cinating and dangerous to chil- - dren and so should not have left it within easy .re.ac.h. A man on a party line got mad at the operator one day and began cursing her vigorously. When she protested, the man dared the com-nan- v tn out off his service. Prompt- - ly the company did just that. Doubly enraged, the man went to court for an injunction but the Judge ruled that the company was within its rights. Said His Honor: "The telephone company requires the observance of common proprie-t- y in use of language, because its operators are refined females. Op-erators have a right to respect" There they feU to work and rav-aged the neighbor's corn and po-tato crops. Afterward the neigh-bor sued for damages, but the court turned down his claim. The judge said the farmer had a right to defend his property against this "common enemy" and wasn't re-sponsible for what the enemy did somewhere else! English Monarch Has 264 Helpers Days of Strong Arm And Sword Are Gone LONDON It used to be that all a king needed was a lion's heart and a good sword arm. Things have changed since the Windsor family went into the crown business more than 1,000 years ago. To handle the job today, you have to have a lot of assistants. A new household list has recently been compiled for King George VI, and it shows it takes at least 264 help-ers to hold down the monarchy. In fact, it's pretty much a job just keeping up with the assistants, those close to the throne say. These are complicated days in Bucking-ham Palace. King George has 43 doctors (phy-sicians, extra physicians, sergeant surgeons, surgeon apothacaries, surgeon occulists, manipulative sur-geons, surgeon dentists, etc.) He has 43 chaplains. He- - has 13 secretaries and assistants and a treasurer, a comptroller, a and 14 helpers just to take care of the royal income. Purity on Stage Five people work full time pre-paring the royal archives and five more control the king's charities. The king keeps an eye on purity on the stage through his chief as-sistant, the lord chamberlain.' His palaces are under a lord steward and ever, in this atomic age he finds it necessary to have a master of the horse. Sovereigns have to be patrons of the arts, so the king needs a poet laureate, a master of the music and an official miner or painter. |
