Dramatic Hosiery Shown for Spring The little leg that's showing now is a big part of the smart look-- and a smart girl makes the most of it. Making the most is done with colored hose. Not the harsh, musi- cal comedy colors featured just be- fore nylons went to war, but beauti- fully subtle new shades, that melt into one's costume. Currently making their appear- ance on store counters, these new tones seem a little strange at first. But our eyes will become accus.- tomed to them and eventually we'll all have, not just stockings to go with everything, but a wardrobe of hose for specific ensembles. When on, the new nylons really aren't colors at all, but misty veils of illusion that bridge the color gap between dress and shoe . . , and, incidentally," focus attention on ankles and calves -- dramatizing that little that shows. There are two routes that lead to making the most of these stockings: one can harmonize or contrast. Exanfples of this are an all navy costume with illusion, blue navy hose or a navy bag, shoes and a misty jade green stockings. Since the range of colored hose is about as wide as one as is pos- sible, the effects to be created are limitless. For evening the new shades are particularly good. Con- sider the pretty air of a pink satin evening gown, matching pink satin sli; 2rs and the merest veil of pink noyion sheathing the ankles. More conservative souls will be able to choose more conservative tones. For although color is the news in stockings, the popular bronzes, beiges, neutrals and off- blacks and off-browns will still be smart. MRS. H. G, WILLES Tests for Garments Stamped 'All Wool' If you're in doubt about garments that claim to be "all wool," there are identification tests for wool that will prove the validity of the boast. Giving the burning match test to a few fibres is one way to deter- mine the presence of wool. For this test, pull a few loose threads from the seam edge of 'a garment--if possible from both lengthswise and crosswise directions, Twist length- wise threads into one strand; crosswise threads into another and test separately, Ignite one strand. If the strand is wool, it will burn slowly and have the acrid odor of burning hair. The ash will be crisp and will tend to curl up in a ball, The alkali test will also identify wool. This is particulraly useful in determining whether cotton, linen or rayon fibres are mixed with wool. To test, boil a small sample of fabric for 15 minutes in a solution of one tablespoon of lye to one pint of water, Wool fibres will dissolve in the strong alkali solution leaving the other fibres in- tact. This test is ineffective in the case of silk and wool mixtures be- cause silk will also dissolve. How to Prevent Cake Failures 1. Ii a cake has tunnels? Next time go easier on the beating when adding flour and liquid. 2. If the entire centre is soggy but the edges well done? Lower temperature and longer baking time are indicated. y 3. If the bottom of the cake 1s burned but top is golden? Check pan you are using. Baking glass, aluminum or overex are best. 4. If cake has cracks on top? Use a little less flour or a little more liquid. Batter may be too thick, or oven too hot. 5. If cage falls during baking period? Do not peek in the oven during baking. 6. If cake sticks to pan? Grease plain cake tin with shortening or oil free from salt. Do not grease sponge or angle cake tins -- dust with flour. 7. If cake is not cooked through? Never remove cake from oven un- til it has slightly shrunk from sides of pan and until a toothpick comes out clean after insertion in centre | of cake. Cool cake on a cake rack.

Be- | cause what they are really admit-| ting is that they haven't the vision | to see that every talent they have can be used to good advantage in | the job of home-making. 1f a woman gives the job of housekeeping all the zest, enthusi- | asm, imagination and organization | she would expect to put into any | other career, she won't find 1t dull | or boring. | Perhaps she likes people and has | a talent for getting along with | | them. Then she can concentrate on | | making her home the kind of place | where people love to come. | "If she is good at organization | she'll find it pays big dividends in | If she prides herself on her good | taste or her sense of color, she can | use such knowledge and talent to wonderful advantage in decorating her home so that it reflects her own personality. And so it goes. The job of home- making can't be dull to the woman who makes up her mind to put the stamp of her own personality on everything she does. So don't decide you -hate house- keeping, if you've never tried to do it more than passably well. Put all of your talents and your bright ideas into it--as you would in an- other job--and see if you don't feel that you're doing a job of which you are proud. Shoulders Need Special Care The young girl plagued by ado- lescent skin troubles may be tempt- ed to limit her complexion care to her face and neck where skin flare- ups are most noticeable. She shouldn't, however, be haphazard in her care of back and shuolders. | If neglected, these areas will also attract pesky blemishes which will | soon be unveiled by Summer's sun- backed togs. In order to bare a prettier back, start the skin care routine Here is a three-point ,- prezram which will enable a girl to turn her back to the world with no apolo- gies: First, give = your skin thorough cleansings by scrubbing back and bristled back brush and foamy suds. Rinsing off soap--with a tepid or cool spray of possible--is the second step. For | the third step, dry the skin com- pletely. A friction rub with the »sath towel pulled in a brisk see- saw motion across the back will help to dislodge flakes of dry skin. | After cleansing, soothe any skin irritations with medicated oint- ments or lotions. To apply, use a | long cotton-tipped swab. Dip swab | into bie medication and with mir- || rors to guide your hand apply it | Ito ski py lots of all the | got the night before. | were awakened several more shoulders with a firm- | Take Motor Trip to the U.S. MR. and MRS.

Check up on how much sleep you You'll prob- ably discover that you spent a lot of time wooing sleep; or that you times by noises; or that your lids, bombard- ed by early morning light, popped open 'at an outrageously early hour. | Light and noise are sleep-robbers which can be neatly dealt with. If light can't be screened out of your bedrocen by window shades or vene- tian blinds, rig up draw curtains which will keep out fugitive rays. Or get yourself some black cotton sleep shades which will mask sen- sitive eyelids from piercing light. If 'you are easily awakened by nighttime noises, stuff. wax stop- ples in your ears. 'There are pli- able little pink pellets for this pur- pose which can be comfortably worn to shut out disturbing sounds. You can make as short shrift of the problem of - nervous tensions which keep you awake. One way is to take some mild exercise, be- fore going to bed, for the sole pur- | pose of banishing tensions. If you | take a bath before going to bed, see that water is tepid; not hot. Before you retire, drink a hot soporific beverage. That "night cap" can even be hot coffee, provided it is decaffeinated.

PRE.TRAVEL PROTECTION Many Canadians are planning vacations or other journeys abroad and in order to protect these travel- lers from dangerous diseases found in many foregin countries, national health authorities are urging pros- pective travellers to avail them- selves of immunization protection before leaving Canada. »They point out that health con- ditions in many foreign countries have deteriorated since the war and that immunization is a "must" for those travelling in the danger areas. CLOSE UP OF: -- | Rottingdean-on-Sea | By ELIZABETH RICHMOND St. Dunstan's, Britain's famous institution for war-blinded Service men and women, has recently op- ened a holiday home for children at Rottingdean-on-Sea in the county of Sussex, on the south coast of England. The home, which is in a lovelly large, old-fashioned house is not intended for blind children, but for youngsters whose blind parents cannot take them away for holidays. Rottingdean, four mlies from the noted resort of Brighton, is on one of the finest stretchse of Britain's south coast. While many places in the neighborhood pride themselves on being "modern", Rottingdean re- tains its old-world, rustic atmos- phere. At the end of a long , nar- row street' running from the sea, there are some pleasant 19th cen- tury houses round a restful green, on which is a duck pond. Home of the Great In one of these houses lived Sir Edward Burne-Jones. He was a ce- lebrated artist who belonged to the group of painters known as Pre- Raphaelites. Sir Edward married Georgiana Macdonald; one of his sisters was the mother of Rudyard Kipling the writer; the other was the mother of Lady Baldwin, wife of the first Lord' Baldwin of Bewd- ley, a former Prime Minister of Britain. It was natural that Sir Edward Burne-Jones, wishing to add to the beauty of the old church in the village he loved so much, should present it with some fine stained glass windows which he designed. Every visitor at Rottingdean goes to the church to see these famous windows, which were made by a friend of Burne-Jones, the great craftsman William Morris. In some of the windows the figures of Gab- riel, Michael and Raphael are seen, while another portrays a delight ful St. George. The fabric is Sax- on and Norman, and from the churchyard, where is buried the novelist William Black, may be seen the undulating Sussex Downs. Claims to Fame Rottingdean has other claims to fame. Once upon a time the old vicarage was a school where studi- ed three boys who all became great men, Ome was the Duke of Wel- lington, Britain's great general; the second was Bulwer Lytton, 19th century romantic novelist and the third Cardinal Manning, one, of the leaders of the Catholic revival in England during the 19th cen- tury. The long narrow street which leads to the sea is gay today with bright little shops and cafes; one restaurant, a favorite spot in sume mer, has been built on the edge of the cliff overhanging the sea. One noted local landmark is an old windmill which stands on the crest of the downs. It has inspired many local poets and can be seen clearly by travellers approaching Rottingdean along the cliff road. A flight of steps leads down to the seashore and to an undercliff walk to the Regency atmosphere and gay entertainment of Brighton.
