WOMAN’S PAGE. Favor Lanvin Collar for Comfort MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN, BY MARY MARSHALL. To many women the word Lanvin has very little assogiation save with & certain shade of green. We all talked about Lanvin green a few sea- ®oms ago even if wo dign’t know LANVIN'S ROLLED COLLAR ON NATURAL KASHA FROCK. Just what we were But every season Lanvin does something to make herself talked about. And now a new sort of high collar seems to be her most talked- about achicvement—next, of course, to the opening of her little shop for collar seems to be htr little shop for alking about The Daily erss-Word Puzzle N aaa aa e T HWEES 48 ' :P 7 E\K ] KK N \ EEEEE Disarranged.

Here she will sell the daintier sort of accessories to men —tles and dressing gowns and such —and spread her belief that mas- culine taste s at present drifting to the period aof lace ruffles, stocks and other picturcsque This new collar of Lavin's, as col- lars go today, is & high collar. Con- fidentially, it is the sort of collar that would have been considered positively frightful 15 or 20 years ago. But so many of the things we con- sider smart today would have seemed frightful then. This new Lanvin collar, as you can from the’ sketch, is low enough to show some of the neck. It does just what no self-respecting collar of the old school ever thought of doing. But there is no gainsay- ing the statement that it is smart And simple little kasha frocks with this Lanvin collar are chosen of the younger women for day” wear Whether the fad for this collar and the appearance here and there of other collared frocks indi- cates that collars will come back into shion it would be hard to say. does seem, however, to be a strong tendency at the present time to reject those things among proposed styles that are uncomfort- able and to cling to those that are comfortable Something, - apparently, has hap- pened to women here and in France definitely to turn them away from shions that are rex uncomfort- Jle or hard to wear. It is for this on that some observers say that the high collar as it was known late in the last century and the tightly- drawn corset can mnever be revived and why so many folks insist that bobbed hair has come to stay.

As one reader points out, “‘Ex- pensive’ and ‘nutritious’ are mot al- ways synonymous adjectives.” There are plenty of cheap foods, but the secret of good buying consists in knowing which are the most nourish- ing. Take the matter of shortening, for instance. The city housewives bake only occasionally. One reason for this is because the commercially baked products are so satisfactory and in the end are really cheaper than homemade products. Hous: wives in the rural communities, ho ever, must do a good deal of baking. and even their city sisters like to have homemade cake and pie for ocoasional variety. It is suggested that many women do not realize all the good to be de- rived from margarine. It is not our purpose just now to talk about the nutritive value of margarine; our subject is shortening. It is worth while to figure roughly Some ways margarine cut down household expenses How about the pound cake your husband is so fond of? You know how many eggs and how much butter are required to make this cake. Next time try margarine and see if you do not like it just as well. In ples, muffina and biscuits margarine may be used wherever the recipe calls for lard or butter. It makes a light and flaky pastry.
