WOMEN’S FEATURES. CcC-3 Waffles Task Grows w THE EVENING STAR,. WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1935. -For Cool Fall Evenings—Try a Supper of Kidney Stew -and Necklines Are Important OMEN’S FEATURES. Shopping Around Washington Economical and Easy Stepping Into Autumn in Smart New Shoes. BY MARGARET WARNER. ULL of pep from happy vaca- tions, city dwellers feel ready to step into Autumn in a big way, and American shoe de- signers, with their usual foresight, have planned an intensely interesting and varied offering of footwear, full of color, contrasts and surprises. They have taken into consideration the matter of comfort as well as style and have added lots of new features to give spice to the whole matter. A glance at the shoes sketched will show you how clever the new designs are and what there is in store for you. For street and general wear heels are comfortable and leathers sturdy. | Shoes are made to “take it” and look smart at the same time. For after- noon the higher heels give a more graceful silhouette to shoes with in- tricate designing and for evening the sandals are open, but made to confine the tips of toes and the backs of the heels more closely than before, allow- ing the sandal to hold its shape much better. High heels will be generally ; worn for evening with everything ex- | cept costumes of Grecian and Eastern ' inspiration, when flat heels will be the logical complement. For the coming foot ball season one of the most interesting models goes by the equally interesting name o “Saucy Lady.” As ycu will noti om the sketch, it has a distinctive snub nose, a flat, square heel and is fin- ished by a little tongue and bow of grosgrain. “Saucy Lady” is fashioned of suede and comes in the new Fall colors of brown, burgundy, green and gray. * % ¥ % 'OR those who prefer a more con- servative shoe for spectator sports, 8 classic oxford, such as the one| sketched, which comes in black seal, brown calf or dark shades of suede- like calfskin, is always in excellent taste and will retain its trim appear- ance in a gratifying manner. Street shoes are especially interest- | ing this season because of the variety of style they offer. For the type of hoe which will do duty most satis- ly for smart office wear all Fall uggest the pictured broad strap the smart knobbed buckle.

For those who pre- fer the smooth leather, a dressy street shoe of brown calf, like the one in the drawing, with a one-eyelet tie, white stitching, grosgrain bow and high covered heel is unusually trim and smart. * ¥ ¥ ¥ MOOTH and rough leathers are be- ing combined in particularly ef- fective ways in the new Fall shoes. Another new quirk is for street shoes and handbags to be of matching skins. The model you will find sketched illustrates the two notes to perfection. It is & pump which com- bines calf and lizard on graceful diag- onal lines, and is finished by two | small buttons in front. The matching The Old Gardener Says: Most of the Spring-blooming bulbs, except tulips and lilies, can be planted in September. It is especially important that the daffodils should go into the ground early because they need to meake considerable root growth before cold weather starts. They do not grow as rapidly as tulips, and therefore need a longer sea- son. Daffodils will thrive in one place for several years, but even- tually will become crowded, giving flowers which are smaller and fewer in number. It is a good rule to separate them every three or four years. Bulbs which have been resting in the ground may be lifted and replanted now, al- though it is more difficult to lo- cate them than in the Spring when the tops can be seen. (Copyright. 1935.) 1f pert smartness is your ambition, Alice Brooks can fulfill all your wishes with this crocheted halo toque—fashion’s latest. It's the sort of het that gives a flattering youthful appearance, and who will scorn that? The brim, rolled double to form the halo, is formed of crochet that simulates pin tucks. The crown is in plain crochet. The matching pouch bag repeats the flared effect of the brim and is exceedingly smart in its tucked effect too.

One of the most welcome style notes for Fall is the return of the large cut steel buckle. Always s sign of ele- gance, it is a logical addition to the season’s emphasis on glitter and bril- liance. We have sketched a typical simple pump enhanced by one of these charming new buckles. Evening shoes, as we mentioned be- fore, are much less inclined to sport wide open spaces than last season. | The sketched model, showing the new | confinement, is an exquisite thing of paisley brocade with gold kid trim, and a tiny buckle on the ankle strap studded with brilliants. The sandal also comes in dyeable white satin with gold strappings. One more new note is much too im- portant to ignore.

BY ELSIE PIERCE. I HAVE mentioned before that men seem to notice the natural health and beauty of the hair far more than its arrangement. We've heard men say, in describing a woman: “She is a flashing, dark brunette,” or, “Her hair is a gorgeous, golden blond,” or, “She is the titian type.” Many times I've heard: “Her hair is a pure silver gray,” and a note of real admiration came with it. So you see we notice the color of one’s hair just as we notice the color of one’s eyes—perhaps it is one of the first things we see when meeting & new acquaintance. We agree that cleanliness is the first step in re- conditioning the hair; in recondi- tioning the skin or the hands or any part of the body, for that matter. That’s where brushing plays such an important part. Now, since cleanliness comes first and color is so important, it is a boon to find a shampoo that cleanses and reconditions the hair and at the me time imparts color. There are several such shampoos on the mar- ket, the best known is called a sham- poo ofl tint and is just that. | idea’ of contrasting shoes and hose. | 5000,Extension 342, between 10 and | .."a gl FH up in sequence like so If it's black, brush and brush For Kitchenette Cook To Prepare Speedily chase of Waffle Iron Should Be Included in Budget. BY BETSY CASWELL. T BEGINS to look as if the start of the waflle-entertainment season for the kitchenette housekeeper was at hand. If you do not al- ready possess one of those boons to womankind—the electric waffle iron— plan to include the purchase of one in your Fall ren- ovating and deco- rating budget. It § will repay you § msny times over for the invest- ment! The traditional accompaniment to waffles, other than maple sirup, of course, is kid- ney stew — espe- cially when the waffles are to be served at lunch- eon or Sunday night supper. A good kidney stew is simple and quick to make, and there- fore it takes its place as one of the dishes perfectly adapted to the uses of the business woman cook. Another point to bear in mind is that, just now, kidneys are one of the cheapest meats to buy; also, they contain much nourishment and neces- sary food values, and when properly prepared they form a dish fit for kings! To begin with, however, we shall give you the recipe for waffles that has proved so popular with members of the exclusive Nineteen-Twenty-Five F Street Club, here in town. These waffles are particularly good with kid- ney stew, as they are not very sweet, and the flavors blend together in a delicious manner: Betsy Caswell ‘WAFFLES.

Her interests are all centered in her home, her very individuality merged in her husband's. She has given to him the years of her youth in which she might have fitted her- self for some career or got a start in business. And it's too late to start all over again. An unhappy marriage is never the tragedy for men that it is for women. Divorce doesn't throw a man out of his job | or deprive him of his way of making Marriage is far more important to a woman than it is to a man. It is the thing for which Nature created her and toward which she has a cos- | mic urge. It is the sphere alone in which she finds real contentment. It is her ambition and her dream. From the time a little girl can consciously think, she is planning her wedding. So when a woman marries, she is gambling with everything she has, and | if she loses she is wiped out. But with men marriage isn't the | objective of life. It is something that | is incidental, like buying a lumry" ticket. Not the investment of one’s whole fortune. It is something they can take or leave, ard in their cooler moments most of them would prefer to leave it. * k x % IP A MAN'S marriage turns out suc- cessfully, he is that much ahead! and he congratulates himself upon his | luck.

He doesn't have to crawl back with the children to his parents to be an undesired parasite upon them. Nor does his being divorced prevent him from remarrying if he wishes to do so. But the divorced woman who knows nothing but home making only too often finds that in losing her hus- band she has lost the only job she was fitted for and has no way of supporting herself. And so she has to go back to the parents who do not want her and resent her failure to have made a go of her marriage. * K X X AN’thenucomutomrrlucmn grow cautious and regard the di- vorcee with as much suspicion as they would any other proposition that had failed. It might look good, but they hesitate to invest in it. Another reason why marriage is a greater risk for women than it is for men is because women are better matrimonial material than men are They are more adapted to the holy estate. They possess more of the qualities that go to make a haopy mar- riage than men have. : Women are better lovers for one thing, and the man who marries a girl who is in love with him has a reasonable certainty that she will stay in love with him to the end of the chapter and still think him a Prince Charming, no matter how fat and paunchy and bald-headed he gets.

Few are without some bit of trimming; a col- lar, a plastron, jabot, or a | subtle draping of material. Fabrics for the neck trimming, or vestee, are varied, and most interesting: White pique, immaculate looking for the tai- lored dress; fine failles, much velvet, lames and sequins, and & good deal of braid, rows and rows sewed flat against some surface material for dressier frocks. Sometimes a gayly checked or plaided wool, or one with a spotty design is used when the dress is of plain wool, and when a pat- terned fabric fashions the frock, plain is used for contrast. Today the collar and vestee are one, so cleverly designed that it will be be- coming to almost every woman. Not too severe, nor rigid, the line is at the same time quite trim and tailored. Cuffs match the fabric used for the collar and extending straight out of the sleeves they are a relief from the inevitable turn-back variety. The skirt has a pleat down the front and is otherwise just a plain skirt, full enough, smooth over the hips and worn 12, or even more, inches from the floor. Satin combined with thin wools, both the same shade, is a combination very much in vogue just now, the dull fab- ric with the rich luster of the satin giving an exceedingly smart effect. | This idea is used in all black or in | the colorful Fall shades; the copper Tailored Street Dress for the Older : Woman. 1747-B | and rust tones, too striking for an en- tire dress of satin, are marvelous when used for trimming, the light turning them into molten metal. Pastels, pale blue or pink, are often used to trim dark frocks and, of course, there is a lot of black and white about. Satin-backed crepe faille is one of the nicest of the new silks and an- other novelty of the season is rough in texture, with a flat corded weave. There is a grain-surfaced crepe, with a satin back, patterned in a small design, which is completely reversible and therefore marvelous for frocks where both surfaces can be used. Barbara Bell Pattern No. 1747-B is designed in sizes 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46 and 48. Size 36 requires about 3! yards of 39-inch material and 1% yards of 39-inch for contrast.

There- fore, hearing him called “doctor” is more impersonal, and at the same time more in keeping with the pro- fessional part he takes in the inti-' mate lives of his parishioners, than hearing him spoken of as Mrs. Blank's husband. To put it differently, in times of anxiety or distress, Dr. Blank’s counsel and spiritual encouragement belong, as it were, to all of the members of his congregation.
