LOVE AND LAUGHTER
“Have you ever noticed," writes one of our readers,
"that women who like to sew are for the most part happy
women?”
I remember hearing someone say, when I was ad
miring some gorgeous tapestry made by the nuns, “that
since they didn’t have children they had put their crea
tive abilities Into these works of art" She went on to
say she had once stopped to see a friend and wanted to
borrow a needle to sew on a button. "But she couldn't
find a needle! Imagine—a woman without a sewing box.”
WeU, it’s hard to, really. How, at least, would a mother
manage without a cabinet, box. or little cluttered room
in which to keep the paraphernalia of the sewing that must
be done?
A woman and her needle. What a lovely, inevitable
pair they have been since time began. Women who truly
like to sew must feel the ancient harmonies that go back,
back even beyond the Bible, into the tents and caves of
the first human families that had to be clothed But if a
woman doesn’t LIKE to sew, look out! My mother was
such a woman, and everybody shuddered when she drove
herself to the sewing machine. The machine seemed to
sense It, for it balked and kicked and both of them
suffered—audibly.
My husband's mother was bom with needle in hand;
she sang as she whipped out garments for her grand
children; and her oldest granddaughter happily inherited
that love.
I’m afraid I’m like my mother—allergic to all but
absolutely essential sewing.
Lyrics for Everyday Living
DECORATOR
Glass is for April,
It goes with daffodils
And violets just soaking
In the damp, dusky hills.
Silver is for summer —
It cools the lush green,
And supports the heavy roses,
So gracious and serene.
Summer goes with silver, .
April goes with glass,
November calls for copper
And brorue, and brass.
I’m getting down my candlesticks
And rubbing bright the bowls
For branches and berries
and gaudy vegetables.
For when the fire is snapping
And apples scent the hall,
Bronte and brass and copper
Prolong the golden fall.

JZABETH ARDEN'S CREME PDFF
A fascinating new hair fashion that gives yon added height without all that teasing.
It’s done with a heady mixture of your own silken tresses
and an Elizabeth Arden wiglet
The hair is brushed softly back and up and then gently turned behind your ear,
and Miss Arden believes that
you’ll see more and more of the ear this year.
The nicest part of Elizabeth Arden’s Creme Puff is that you keep this delicious look
from appointment to appointment. Wiglets begin at 90.00. Ask your stylist to choose one for you*
