FASHION POINTS to remember

Shoulders will be broad again, but not exaF-

gerated.

Pockets have come to stay-you can have siz on your jacket and six more on your blouse, if you like.

Your waist is important-and getting just a trifle smaller.

The revers on your jacket will be pushed up towards your shoulders,

Skirts will be short-but nothing like knee- length yet.

Silhouettes remain stim, but here's the difference from last season's-you can wear a pleated skirt if you like, so long as it docen't add to your Bize.

Colours are mixed-a few of last season"a combinations and a lot of new ones.

Bolerns are news-especially one worn over a coat.

Fine stripes, over-checks, plain materials are all worn.

Look out for emusing buttons and big prean clips instead of buttons on tailored jackets. -

are most easily digested. Rub the dirt off with n saucepan seourer, sluice them under the top, prick them here and there with a skewer to allow the steam to escape and put them into a cool oven wet. They will then be deliciously mealy.

If they are cut in half longways and sprinkled with grated cheese, which can be toasted golden brown under the grill, they make a tasty dish for lunch or supper.

When potatoes are bolled in the ordinary way use as little water as possible and after straining them shake them vigorously in an open doorway. Then put the pan, with the lid off, at the side of the stove for a few minutes and shake occa- sionally. The potatoes will be while and mealy.

Fried and roosted potatoes are not necessarily na indigestible as many people suppose. Use as Httle fat as possible, dredge them in flour and take care to have them well cooked through, without being too hard on the outside.

Raw potatoes, thinly peeled, have a natural under-skin that prevents fut from soaking in. It is best, therefore, when cooking for people with delicate digestions to fry or roast potatoes In their raw rather than to boil them Brst,
