Was It but a Suggestion
From Exhausted Clerk?
Frock after frock had been dis-
played to the lady with the super-
cilious air, until the salesperson
in the exclusive dress shop wss
on the point of nervous exhaus-
tion. ;
The customer would inspect
each dress and then make biting
remarks about moat of them. At
lest she looked around the deva-
stated piece with an overbearing
glance and complained:
‘‘All your frocks ere so skimpy.
I believe I would look better in
something flowing.”
The tired clerk was quick to
seize the opening.

of things—new, crisp, cool clothes
. . . vacation trip* ... gardening
. . . and yea, even parties, espe-
cially gay ones that all for s mini-
mum of “home work.”
1 think I understand. You love
to have people in your home. In
spite of the warmifesa of June days,
you want those of your friends who
remain in town to drop by often for
conversation, relaxation and refresh-
ments. But, of course, you want
what you serve to be easy to make,
delicious, entirely different from any-
thing that you’ve ever served before,
and economical. In the last two of
these points. I've found homemakers
bold a unanimous opinion.
So today I’m going to give you
what I think are ace-high ideas on
easy entertaining. I’m sure you’ll
find the recipes worth trying.

of guests can nevertheless be car-

Serving dessert when guests ar-
rive gives the hostess lots of lee-
way. She doesn’t have to keep in
mind that her friends will be going
home to dinner soon, as she does
with later-on refreshments. And,
she can provide a realty filling des-
sert.

Vanilla mousse is the basis for
a number of appetizing desserts,
and is a good party refreshment in
itself. Among the many variations
are peanut brittle and chocolate

two teaspoons of vanilla into one
quart of heavy cream that has been

Between the scenes in the house-
boat dining' salon that you’ll see in
Paramount’s ‘.‘Nothing But the
Truth,” Bob Hope, Edward Arnold,
Leif Erikson and Glenn Anders were
amusing themselges by filling the
crystal goblets to different levels
with water, then playing chimes on
them with silver spoons. The prop
man nearly had a fit—seems the
glasses were part of a dinner serv-
ice worth more than $2,000.
“Send over to my house for some-
thing less expensive," urged Hope.
“Our goblets are cottage-cheese

If you’ve seen “The Lady Eve”
you’ll remember those slapstick
falls of Henry Fonda’s long after
you forgot the plot of the picture.-
Preston Sturges, who wrote and di-
rected the picture, is also responsi-
ble for “Sullivan’s Travels”—and he
started right off by dropping Joel
McCrea from a rope’s end into a
barrel of water. Furthermore, Mc-
Crea had to wear a tramp’s rags
and a five-day beard. Veronica Lake
is McCrea’s co-star in this newest of
the Sturges comedies. They say it
will be as funny as “The Lady Eve.”
