Use Spring Theme For Wedding
Planning an early summer wedding? Then bring the outdoors inside the church. Nature doesn't stop at the door.
Outside new leaves and the first flowers will be making an appearance. Inside there will be more greenery and flowers with the bride in a flurry of white, the bridesmaids in a color of spring.

It it's a May wedding lilacs can fill the church, not only with their scent, but their color, which can be matched in the dresses of your attendants.
Green for the new bridesmaid dresses, which are cut with simple lines and at street length, will be the highest of fashion.
New Ideas, Designs
If you choose green for your bridesmaid dresses, why not try it in a silk organza, floated over white and perhaps circled with a flower embroidered sash, or in crinkled chiffon sashed with velvet.
Pinks, yellows and other spring flower colors will add to other new stylings of bridesmaid dresses such as the sheath, which has gained considerable attention, and the harem or tucked skirt shown in many styles.
Each season brings new ideas and designs for wedding gowns and bridesmaid dresses in addition to the traditional styling and materials.
Embroidered nylon sheer and silk organzas are favored materials for the bridesmaid, especially with large hairbraid picture hats. Taffeta materials and princess stylings are returning strong this spring.
Green Dresses For Bridesmaids
This spring for the bride it's the new intermission length which has a bouffant skirt and a brush train with the front hem rising 12 to 14 inches from the floor.
Another new style to match your spring theme might be a sheath with a floating back panel or long train. The majority of gowns now are floor length with brush trains.
The very newest in ideas for bridesmaid dresses is the bouffant skirt of organdy with matching organdy flower girl dresses. These are usually embroidered in floral design with accent colors.
Headbands To Match
at the side of the head, tufts of chiffon with very short net in back, or a veil dropped from a flowered chaplet.
Headbands can match your light, spring wedding by being a little bit of nothing—a matched ribbon tied
The contemporary materials in wedding gowns are dominated by the woven fabrics such as silk, or acetate taffetas, peau de soie, silk organza, silk organdy and de-
lustered satin. There will be a great many brides, however, who prefer the traditional all lace, or lace and tulle wedding gowns.
Mother-of-the-bride gowns will be more youthful this season with sheath styling and cap sleeves. Full skirts and three quarter sleeves will appear in silk organizas with beautiful shadings of bright colors.
Use Sugar Rinse For Bandbox Look
NEW YORK — (UP) — White collars and cuffs, which give a springtime touch to dark suits and dresses, must be kept fresh and crisp to be attractive.
After swishing them through soap or detergent suds, you can eliminate the trouble of making starch simply by adding a few teaspoonfuls of granulated sugar to the last rinse water.
The Cleanliness Bureau, a trade organization for the soap and detergent industry, said the sugar solution does the same thing to the white collar that beer rinse does to a girl's coiffure-gives it "body." And the solution is diluted enough to prevent any "caramelizing" during ironing.

Fashions Should Be New, Flattering
In a season of fashion controversy over the chemise, the famous New York designer, Sophie, has this te av: "Fashion should be changeable—should have newness. But at the same time it must be flattering to the wearer."
"If not flattering," she said, "I don't consider it in good fashion.
"It seems to me interesting to note that year after year, the women listed as the best-dressed...are the women who have found what is most flattering to them and are consistent in their selection of silhouette. Newness in this instance, being expressed primarily in color, fabric and detail."
For best flavor, many cheeses should be room temperature when served.

Baby Sitter Needs Pre-Sitting Course
CHAMPAIGN, III.—(UP)—Both the youngsters involved and the baby sitter should have some preparation before children are left in a sitter's care, a child development specialist warns.
It's often wise, says Miss Jeanne Jackson of the University of Illinois, to have the new baby sitter come in during the day and get acquainted with the children. That way, Miss Jackson said, she can find out about the children's habits, routines and problems.
Miss Jackson said the children should be prepared for the sitter's arrival even if they are acquainted with him or her. But it's unwise, she said, to tell them too far in advance because they may be over- anxious.
Make definite arrangements with the sitter about what time she should come, when she may go home; give clear directions on where parents may be reached in emergencies; and specific directions for meals and baths.

Jewelry fashions are going around in circles. Hoop earrings are back, reports the Fashion Co-ordination Institute. They go well with the deep, head-hugging hats and hair-dos which tend to cover most of the ear. The hoops range in size from tiny, delicate circles to big, gypsy-like bangles.
