THE BEE: OMAHA, SUNDAY. AUGUST 14, 1921. To Make Cool Dependent on Your BOWEX'S t-n i Relatives at 6 B By LORETTO C. LYNCH, Since prohibition clever folks are concocting satisfying drinks for sum mcr porch serving. And the writer has endeavored to collect the recipes oi'the more attractive ones. Here is one called blackberry fiz A quart of blackberries is stewed in just a little water until soft and broken. These are strained and sweetened and then bottled or canned for future use, it the juice is not to be used at once. To make the drink pour one-third of a glass of black berry syrup into a chilled glass. Add a tablespoon of lemon juice and some crushed ice. Then till the glass to the top with ginger ale. Fruit punch is sometimes found flat and lacking in flavor, while it may contain choice ingredients. Ihi may be overcome by the addition of a little orange pekoe tea infusion. A rounding tablespoon of tea steepet1 in a quart of boiling water for five minutes is a desirable addition to tne average gallon of punch. Here are the proportions for punch to serve 25 with probably two cups of punch each: Jo the juice ot 20 oranges and I- lemons add pound of granulated sugar and boil live minutes. Cool and then add the contents of one .No. 10 can of grated uineaoolc. AAA a fitiart nf Cftld ta inCtiirtn h and three quarts of cither plain wa lls tcr or ADollmarts. 1 tie punch should be thoroughly chilled before serving. It may be necessary to add more su gar. Maraschino cherries may be added without their juice. The latter will change the color, v Of course there are always unex pected guests dropping in during the summer days, and it is well to keep the orange-lemon syrup on hand in a preserving jar in the refrigerator. Use 20 oranges and 12 lemons with a pound of sugar. Half or quarter of this may be boiled into a syrup. With the syrup on hand, it takes but a moment to add the still or sparkling water once the syrup is in the glass. Small cans of sliced pineapple and a jar or two of maraschino cherries may be kept on hand for special oc casions. A bit of pineapple and a couple of cherries make a real fes tive drink out of an otherwise com- if monplace drink. i Iced tea, iced coffee and iced cocoa will ever be summer drink favorites. 1 To be at their best they must he properly made and attractively served. Tea should be freshly made steeped in boiling water for four minutes. The best results seem to come from pouring hot tea over ice into the serving glass. Lemon is usually used with iced tea. The lemon should be thinlv if sliced. Powdered sugar is added. 11 " Iced coffee likewise is made from U fresh hot coffee poured over enough ice to both, cool and chill it. I before it is chilled bv ice. Whinned cream is served with both iced coffee and iced cocoa. The shops are showing some beau tiful glasses for the serving of these f sumnw-drinks. Long glass spoons Will you be dependent on relatives and friends? If not you will belong to the lucky 10 per cent of the women of this country who are financially inde pendent at that stage. Suppose jour husband should die tomorrow, where would you be, fi nancially speaking ? Out of every 100 widows 25 are absolutely dependent on relatives and friends and 47 are partially so. At the age of 65 only one person in 5,000 is free from want, and 90 per cent of the women after the age of 60 are dependent for their daily bread. - According to the 1920 census there were in the United States 3,170,000 widows and only 1,471,309 widowers. According to Mr. Habson 63 per cent of these three million or more wid ows were left with less than $3,000 each. More than 12,000,000 women are working to support themselves on farms, in shops, factories, offices and of these ea per cent also work to support some one else. 1 he answer to such questions is insurance as a medium tor saving and investment and protection from dependency in old age, as is shown bv the results of an investigation just made by Alice Lakey, chairman of special insurance investigation committee, division of thrift, Gen- . t-. . f iit - "-I 1 eral feneration oi women s viuos. Miss Lakev is vice president of the Cranford. N. T. Village Improvement association, member of the National Institute of Social Science, and pub lisher of "Insurance," 74 Courtlandt street. New York. Her orelimmarv work has been to make a survey ot the benents or me insurance for "women and to report the results of this to' the general federation board of directors, with the result that she has compiled suf ficient evidence in the affirmative to stimulate to the board to a further consideration of a nation-wide cam paign for life, insurance policies fcr women, at least tor working women. General federation .News. , ' Woman Appointee To Disarmament Conference in color are quite the fad and add to the attractiveness of any porch drink. Fashion Notes for the riding habit the three-quarter high silk shape is swagger, as is the brown derby with the informal hunting side saddle habit. Hardy furs will be used for trim ming this year rather than the soft pelts, wolf forming one of the favor ites on expensive models. A trimming noted for fall sweaters and knitted dresses is the use of bands of gray or white-knitted fabric done in clos-looped stitch in imita tion krimmer. Skirt lengths are still an uncer tainty, street costumes showing the shorter lengths, while some of the gowns introduced the ankle length. Women are now wearing the reg ular men's knitted bathing suits, sometimes with the wide white linen belt but more usually with the trunks worn very high on the leg, the top shirt giving the effect of a one-piece suit. Xew color notes are decidedly in favor of brilliant red, both for entire costumes and for vivid facing and trimming effects, with the flower shades bordering on the mauve or violet, petunia, orchid, fuchsia and shades of rose and American Beauty showing close following. While women wish the appoint ment of a woman by President Har ding as a representative to attend the disarmament conferencce, it is in teresting to note that leading wom en urge the appointment on basis of fitness only. On this subject, Mrs. Thomas G. Winter, president of the General Federation of Women's clubs, said "The General Federation of Wom en's clubs would like to see a wom an on the disarmament conference, but emphatically demands that ap: pointmcnt be made on the basis of fitness only, and not frn political considerations." Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, honorary-president of the National League of Women Voters, said: "If the size of the American dele gation warrant, a thoroughly quali fied woman familiar with women's interests and experienced in interna tional affairs be appointed a mem ber. If the number of the commis sioners is so sharply limited as to prelude this "e urge that women of right qualifications be appointed or such advisory committees as the con ference may create." University women in 10 countries have tormed national associations to join the women of Great Britain and America in an international federation. MR.
