News for HomemakersNew Drapery Bracket Makes Pleats in Jiffy By BEATRICE JONES Cartridge-pleated draperies straight pins and ten minutes magic but thanks to an ingenious Decorod, this feat is really possible. Straight lengths of fabric off any width can be pleated perfectly into professional and expensive looking tubular pleats with the aid of the new invention which is a combination of a drapery form and drapery rod. Working equally well with Summer cottons or heavy Winter textures, the fixture is a year-round investment. The only sewing technique the homemaker has to have to achieve this decorator's touch is to be able to flat-hem drapery material on all four sides. From INSERTING fabric into the Decorod is a fool-proof process that needs only a straight pin to complete the job.

accomplished with 24 ordinary of time sound like decorating new drapery fixture called then on the procedure is as simple as A-B-C. Sagging Is Out Starting with the straight end of Decorod, the material is placed to inch above the top and anchored by pushing a common pin through the material and through the slot provided for it. The material is then wrapped tightly around each of the five pleating tubes and anchored in the same manner. The draperies hang se. curely and will not sag-in fact, in the inventor's words, "droopy draperies inspired my no-droop invention." The special feature homemakers will truly appreciate is that whether of Summer or Winter fabric, when it comes to cleaning or washing time the pins may easily be removed.

leaving an easily-handled flat piece of material. Medium-Priced Made of light steel and painted with rustproof aluminum paint, the fixture will last a lifetime. Model A accommodates fabric from 45 to 50 inches wide; type is for 33 to 36-inch material. A is priced at $2.95 and at $2.45. Easy to install, the arm bracklets are fastened to the window casing.

By means of an S- shaped hook which slips into the arm bracket, the Decorod may be placed flush with the window casement or extended as far as eight inches beyond the frame for wider window effects. Decorod is available in the drapery fixture departments of the Fulton St. stores as well as Singer Sewing Machine centers. Society Elizabeth Margaret Gordon Rhoades and Engaged David to C.

Author Take's Liberties With Conventions And Allows for Marital Entanglements By HELEN from the center a a BROWN Society Editor What to do until ceremony time is clearly arad concisely outlined in a new book "Wedding Etiquette Complete" written by Marguerite Bentley to aid the prospective bride and bridegroom and their families answer the myriad questions which arise in connection with wedding, no ratter whether it be small or lange.

Everything is included in the book which covers every situafrom the time the engagement is announced to the celebration of the first wedding anniversary. Adhering pretty close to tradition in most cases, Mrs. Bentley does, however, throw convention to the winds in several instances. She deems it intelligent for the bride to take part in her wedding rehearsal, and pooh-poohs the old superstition that it is bad luck. She also thinks, the bride may take either her father's right arm or left arm although it always has been practically an iron-clad rule for her to take the former.

No Two- in-One Bouquets Other etiquette mentors suggest the, bride have a corsage in the center of her bridal bouquet to away but Mrs. Bentley wears absolutely no! Her reasons are that on this day of days you will be greeting friends without thought of the bouquet you are holding and the flowers surer than not will become wilted or broken. Also, a bouquet with a corsage presents desiccated appearance when it comes time to pass it to the smiling bridesmaids and is hardly a trophy to be treasured. And then again, the white flowers, your probably traveling will not costume, comsays Mrs. Bentley.

There are nearly forty chapters of information with clarify. ing diagrams and photographs. A whole chapter is devoted to the bridegroom, guiding him in how to select his outfit, luggage, what his expeuses are, etc. Trousseau Help There are lists of what the bride must include in her trousseau: maximum, medium and minimum flat silver listings; linen lists for the entire house; kitchen and laundry lists and buying guides. The confusing question of how the military bridegroom's name and rank appear on the wedding invitation and anpouncement is cleared up very nicely and protocol is throughly explained.

Another chapter is devoted to the Canadian wedding which differs with United States custom. Mrs. Bentley has planned and directed 1500 weddings during her career and her book is thoughtfully written to help you avoid making any of the mistakes she has prevented others from making by taking complete charge of the important day.

You will pay only 20 cents for these sweet, tender whole red cups. Use them for garnish or added flavor in a la king recipes, creamed dishes, with many fish dishes, salads, and the like. Since they are whole, you may wish to, stuff them with a salad mixture for a very colorful serving. Tender Mushrooms An especially nice product we think you should try is put up by the Dutch Kitchen, at Malverne, Pa. Tender, delicious mushrooms, with that real mushroom flavor, are so seldom found.

Processed in a special way, which evaporates about 50 per cent of the moisture, then treated with pure sweet butter, nicely browned, these are rich and tender and require only to be reheated to use in any way you choose. Several suggestions are printed on the label of the can. The six ounces represents the equivalent of pound of mushrooms. John Blokzeyl, the owner of the Dutch Kitchen, (he really is Holland Dutch) will be delighted to tell you more about his product and even let you sample it. He is at Loser's food department at present.

have two children, a daughter past 4 years and a son 11 months old. We live in an apartment building where the walls are very thin, anything but soundproof. Our next -door neighbors are Mary Haworth a couple of very orilinary young people, not college trained, who also have two children, a daughter the same age, as ours and a new baby 7 weeks old. They've had a little trouble, not much, adjusting their baby to his schedule, and they lose about a half-hour's sleep giving him a night feeding. Our baby, who is teething, wakens at night and his a violent crib rocker as he goes back to sleep.

We feel this is his way of exercising himself, and it wouldn't bother us so long as we knew he was happy and would in all probability go back to sleep soon. Though we give him toys to distract him, eventually he goes back to rocking tofflull himself to sleep -and I admit he is a violent crib-rocker. Retire Early! We've told the they should retire earlier if they know their rest is going to be broken by both their baby and ours. Saturday nights they frequently go out, taking their children with them, to the home of friends for poker and beer, returning around 2 or 3 a.m.; then on Sunday mornings, when our baby wakes and makes noises at 5:30 or a.m., they are angry, to put it mildly, about their loss of sleep. Our little girls play together and we wish to get along.

P. B. Distress Signal Dear P. baby's violent crib-rocking is a distressing phenomenon, quite aside from the fact that the neighbors are fussing because it disturbs their night's rest. From the specialist's viewpoint, as outlined in Dr.

Margaret Ribble's book, "The Rights of Infants," he is suffering acutely for lack of sensory stimuli and satisfaction which should be supplied by generous amounts of close, warm, physical mothering. His crib-rocking means that he is instinctively trying to compensate for this It is a self-protective performance, a form of struggle to survive. But the fact that he has to make such a for lack of good emotional nur. ture that should be forthcomling from the mother -has very unfortunate effects on baby's nervous stability. It tends to thwart his mental development as well as impair his chances of normally evolving wholesome, satisfying love relationships in later years.

Requires More Mothering Either your child-rearing theories are out of date, still keyed, to the notion that baby should be kept on a rigorous schedule, or else you are being casually heartless about neglecting the infant in order to run your home with assembly. line efficiency. It would be a dreadful mistake to spank the baby crib-rocking. He needs rather to be held in his mother's arms for a play period at regular intervals during the day before his feedings, and especially in the late afternoon or before night bedtime. Then he should be rocked to sleep in mother's arms while she sings gentle lullabies.

The vital importance of such mothering is carefully expli cated, time and again, In Dr. Ribble's invaluable book, pub lished in 1943 by Columbia Uni versity Press and now in ite seventh printing. My advice to read this book, reform you" ways and bless the neighbors as angels in disguise for fore ing baby's needs on your attention. M. H..
