OPEN AIR GIRL
TISE sports girls are careful in choosing Wothes for summer week-ends. My advice
to them is to remember that fabrics are of first importance if they want their dresses to look fresh all through the summer.
Something that will wash repeatedly is what they need, and good "wearing" materials are re- ceiving my serious attention just now.
For bright, sunshiny days colours have taken on a pastel tone this year. They look lovely against the dark follage of the river banka, effective by the sea, and for spcetator sports by the swimming pool.
Ivory, too, is used as the background for gally coloured designs and Jersey à pots is the attractive name of the Celanese fabric selected for pattern No. 1152.
Brightly coloured minute dice shaped spots in Live different contrusting shades have an ivory background in the material used for this little suit.
Orange, blue, brown and green are the shades in the one I have chosen. Both dress and
coat have sleeves.

Slice the cucumber, drain 20eli.
Flake the crab. Mix equal quantities of crab and cucumber with a stnall minced onion, and auficient salad cream to moisten,
Corned Beef
Corned beef sandwiches are good.
Shred the beef, add a fea- spoonful of Worcester sauce, a Httle made mustard and a jet- tuce leaf. Blend well together, then spread between bultered rolls.
Tomato Cream
A few drops of onion juice add a new favour to tomato sandwiches. Plunge the toma- toes into boiling water for a few moments, skin, then mash to a pulp. Add a tiny drop of onion juice, or a little chopped hard-bolled epy.
Season with a sprinkling of pepper and salt and serve be- tween bridge rolls. Salad Mixture
Fresh salad, such as lettuce, cucumber, watercress and tomatoes, makes delicious cat- ing.
Arrange the lettuce, a slice of tomato and cucumber, then sprinkle toith salad cream and a little grated cheese,
Savoury Shrimps
Here's a favourite: Flavour some ready picked shrimps with a few drops of lemon fulce, then spread be- tween milk bread rolla. They are also tasty mixed with hard- bolled cog.

The preservation of its appearance, therefore, is important, so here is a hint about ironing the fabric which is worth noting. Cloque should always be ironed when nearly dry, and you should not press too hard with

Crepe fabrics, which are also very summer much to the fore in the fashion seene, should be ironed in the same way

pound of sugor, adding this to the rinds, to- gether with the juice of the oranges and the juice of three, extra oranges. Stir energetically, then strain and add a little extra lemon juice if you wish.
Almond Water and Mint Sherbert
Almond water is very simple to muke, and pleasing to the palate. Place four ounces of sweet almonds and one of bitter almonds in a pan with a quart of cold water. Bring to the ball and simmer very slowly for half an hour. Add three-quar- Lers of a pound of sugar and allow this to dissolve. Strain and bottle. Ifalt a cupful of the water in soda makes a glorious "long", drink.
Mint sherbert is a most refreshing drink and takes very little trouble to make. Dissolve one pound of sugar in a quart of water and add several leaves of chopped mint. Cover the bowl for an hour, then add the juice of three fine lemons. Strain before serving.
Have you tried a coffee milk "shake"? This has the merit of be- ing stimulating as well as refresh- ing. For each glass allow sufficient coffee essence to make a breakfast cup full.
Mix the coffee with unsweetened condensed milk, allowing two table- spoonfuls to each class of water. Sugar as you wish, then add the necessary amount of cold water and whisk in a large jug until frothy. The addition of a little ice creamt makes this "shake" even more do- lightful.
