The re­ cipe follows; Apple Fixing Faces Many otherwise intelligent peo­ ple, the doctors areXaware, suffer from self-consciousness and lack of confidence because of some faci­ al handicap, such as protruding jumbled teeth in mal-formed jaws. Authorities want such people to know that they have no excuse for depriving themselves of business and social advantages or of person­ al happiness. Dentists are able, in this day and age, to improve the most embarrassing -mouth and fa­ cial conditions by advice and treat­ ment leading to correction of un­ derlying causes. So, Canadians are advised, if i teeth are the cause of reluctance to take a full share of life, see the dentist at once. Hello Homemakers! Just as the Pilgrim fathers gathered to give thanks for the harvest of the new land so can we. Our spring season was wet and late yet our farmers did not lose hope and to-day we are humble in our appreciation of the products of our fields. So on Thanksgiving Day, we will give thanks and resolve not to waste the good things from the harvest while others are starving.

The home, too, should give the youngsters constant' direction in such important matters as sportsmanship and co-operation. And, since much of a child’s per­ sonality is built around the home, such training must be centred and practised there.

To Fill Cracks For the “handy woman about the home” who wields a putty knife on occasion, it may be help­ ful to know that cracks in plaster I are more satisfactorily filled by a mixture of plaster of Paris and vinegar than by plaster of Paris and water. The vinegar keeps the plas- ter mass from setting too soon and : the wielder of the putty knife has time to do a professional-looking j job, according to authorities at * Massachusetts State College. ) Few people, say health authori- ’ ties, seem to give any thought to | what they eat. They just take meals as a chore or a. habit, not the im­ portant health-function it should be. Expert Advice Information on how to keep healthy, as well as how to avoid disease, should be obtained only from persons qualified by training and experience to advise in such an important field. It is a neces­ sary to undersand the positive truths on which genuine health is built, as it is to realize how false are some of the ideas which have grown up about physical and men­ tal matters. Public health authorities warn against trifling with one’s well­ being by practising self-medication or by accepting unprofessional guidance. Canada’s colleges and hospitals are turning out people of high attainment in the medical and associated fields to lead us to high­ er standards along sound scientific lines.

They urge a close study I of the relation of food to physical j and mental well-being, and point ; out that scientific advice and in- i formation in this field is available i from any health department, as well as in free literature obtain­ able from Provincial and local health units.

I “Darling, we have such a lot to ! do,” said his fiancee, “and if we j want to make, our wedding a big . success, we musft’t forget even the | mdst insignificant detail!” “Oh, don’t worry about that,” murmured the young man. “I’ll be there all right.’’ Salad Plates A protein food, such as meat, Tish, cheese or eggs, should form the basis of salad dishes. Making the salad the main plate at a meal has the approval of the specialists in the field of healthful eating, but they suggest that the greens, etc., be bolstered up with more substantial fare. To make tlie salad look more palatable, such garnishes as crisp radish roses, celery curls, carrot straws or parsleys are suggested.

Manners Mark Teen-Age Poise The teen-agers who stand out in a holiday crowd as nice and worth knowing are the girls who take their good manners on vacation with them. The teen-ager who gets up when an older woman enters a room and offers her chair if none other is available, will be applauded by young and old alike as a girl with attractive manners. Any lass who covets that distinc­ tion will also behave nicely to younger children. As a matter of fact, she will make it a point to be as pleasant to little tykes and grown-ups as to girls and boys of her own age group. Limiting herself to a clique of one or two chums is a dandy way for a teen-ager to lower her charm rating. Another way is to isolate the most attractive boy present for a cozy twosome. Skirt Length Increases Five or More Inches Hiding the American woman’s kneecap this fall is one fashion “must” on which all designers are agreed. Skirt length takes a sud­ den plunge of five or more inches. Less unanimous is the aim of stylists to pull stuffing out of the shoulders. Those who don’t yank out all cushioning modify the size of shoulder pads, Coats almost more than any other daytime fashions seen in early previews reflect a prodigal use of yardage. They will envelop the little woman of 1948 like a tent. Or Will float fullness behind her like a bridal veil. Coats swing from yokes like peignoirs; wrap around with lavish lapovers. Many wrap-arounds, stay put With the help of a hand. Many hew suits owe their suave look to broadcloth. With softer shoulders, longer jackets, plung­ ing hemlines and bandings of fur, such suits strike a. new note of ele­ gance. Metallic or brocade blouses add to this effect. ■ Hip-artay also gives 1948 suits their new look. Bulky pockets seen aft as often as for, bustles, pleat­ ed peplums, and drapery are used to break the straight figure-line which mose designers are out io break.
