Style Leaders Praise Queen Her Clothes On Tour Win Fashion's Applause -- Smart Hats, Chic Gowns, Pastel Colors : When the Duke of York ascend- ed to the throne of England, the clothes of his Queen became mat. ters of first importance. Queen El- . fzabeth faced difficult fashion prob- © * dems. The simple little bjack frocks which other women wore with such distinction were not for her, Train. ed in the tradition of Queén Mary, she bad to ¢hoose clothes light and ~distinctive enough 4p color to make them stand out from the crowd, Moreover, she faced figure probe lems, as every woman does, Her's was shortness of stature, The fash- fon demands of her position had to be grafted on the demands of her silhouette. 4 "Elizabethan Mode Working with one of London's leading dressmakers, she took -up the difficult problem and so began the development and evolution of the wardrobe of a Queen. Soft powder blues, lilacs, grays and dusty roso supplemented the belge she had worn 'so much before, Flounces and draped effects gave way to simple smart cuts. FJufty fox collars were pruned away to reveal that short graceful curve of her throat, and the fur was placed on other parts of her costumes to retain the richness they demand. Gradually a new "Elizabethan mode? evolved, but not one. cos. tome sacrificed the personality of a woman who was feminine td the crown of" her head. On her first overseas tour her clothes are winning fashion ap- piduse. A slimmed figure has given an appearance 'of height; smart i hats have added to her Chie, Why You Should Keep Milk Cool There Are Many Alvinitageis . Bacteria Growth Is Re- strained --- It hardly seems possible that Na- ture.Intended that milk should ever be used other than in the natural way. Certainly she could scarcely -be expected to provide a preserv- ative for keeping milk in bottles, pitchers or pails. But she does if given a chance. Fresh milk has been found to contaln a substance called Lactenin, which bacterial growth for a certain per: fod.

Ev- en if it later warms=slightly the ef- . fect of Lactenin remains for 24 "hours or longer. 'Milk cools very slowly in air. It takes about 12 hours to bring milk down to 50 degrees even if the air is below freezing. Cold water will cool the milk twenty times as fast, quicker still If the water is stirred, best of all if ice i3 used.
