MARY MORTON The most effective evening frocks ane those that rely on fabric, color and cut for their charm and interest, rather than a mass of frills or lots of trim- ming, This charming evening frock, simple and lovely,, is of porcelain-blue tafetta and has a smartly modified bouffant line. The deep, square neck- line is notched at the sides and centre front, A jewelled buckle clasps the self belt in front. The shoulders are just covered by caps that are barely sleeves.

Here's‘ an easy way to speed the process of making a large quantity of sandwiches, Stand the entire loaf of sliced bread on end. Spread fill- ing on top buttered slice and set it to the side of the loaf, When the second slice had been spread set it and the slice under it on top of the loaf, then set two slices on the 'filled' pile. You will only butter the one side of the slice upon which the fill- ing is spread but if filling is moist they will be tasty. 4. Minced veal moistened with con- centrated celery soup makes a very good sandwich filling. * * * * THE SUGGESTION BOX Many thanks to our friends in Nor- thern Ontario for their splendid ideas. (Mrs. J. ),Y.) Valentine Party menus: Put your Valentine cards on the ser- vice, plates, cut circles of acellophane the size of the inner circle of plates and cover the cards. Your glasses of tomato juice will look very effective. (Mrs. P. K,) Discarded adhesive tape spools are good candleholders for Valentine arrangqments. The bases may be painted or simply covered with paper. (Mrs. R. Mc.), If you have numer- ous leftover candles, melt them, pour the melted wax into individual gela- tine moulds, and insert soft string wicks. Set these on fancy plates and burn the candles in the moulds. * * $ * Anne Allan invites you to write to her clo of The Wingham Advance- Times.

VapoRtim., A Unsweetened canned fruit is . rat- ioned because it is in short supply and because efforts must 'be made to see that persons requiring this type of food because of health reasons get their just share, Q—Every time I make a small pur- chase of meat my butcher asks me for tokens, instead of coupons, Why should be be so insistent on getting tokens?. A—Meat tokens should be kept in circulation so that the supply will be adequate and it will not be necessary to issue more. If your butcher does not obtain tokens from his customers he must spend time going to the bank to secure more tokens, Also if he does. not obtain tokens from his customers he might be in the position of not being able to give change to those who pre- sent coupons. Q—When will ration book six be is- sued? A—There are sufficient coupons left in ration book five 'to last to the end of the year. Therefor, no decision has yet 'been made regarding ration book six.
