LETTER FROM BEATRICE GRIMSHAW TO HER FRIEND, SALLY ATHERTON. Just why I am to be the receptacle of my married friends’ griefs and grievances Ida not quite understand Os course, dear, dear Sally, I am highly flattered that you make me such a confidant, but never having been married myself and being still under 30, I sometimes feel that I must be somewhat inadequate in the capacity of adviser in chief of either you or Leslie. Tes, my dear Sally, the very clay I got your letter I received one from Leslie in which she said with much truth, that it was the little annoyances of life that made up modern ma rtyrdom. She almost made me believe that 6he had made out her case until I received your letter. You are wrestling with a great problem, dear Sally, and perhaps it does you a great deal of good to be able to tell it all to me. T am sure if you wish to tell me and it helps you, I am only too glad to hear it. You Are Afraid But as much as I might say. as much as I might advise, your problem is one which no one can solve for you. You say you are afraid you are hard because you have not the svmpathy for Sam you might have. You also wonder if any one knows why he or she marries, I have not experienced i-octicn- my-, if ! ve that ro F . • ••! woman WSgpJfmo iii K< r life and usually it. ■Wlffnin the first three years, rk the first place, Sally dear. T wonder if you remember the words. "Love, honor and cherish, until death do you part?” Some women have loved and cherished a man all their lives after it has been impossible to honor him. Sam is a good man, a charming man. He is only weak and 1 do not think that you have any right to pity yourself, to the exclusion of feeling sorry for him over this terrible thing that has come to your husband. Love Means Tenderness You know you did love him well enough to marry him. Have you found out already that you did not love him well enough to be his wife. The love of a wife means tenderness, sacrifice, ever ready sympathy. It means comradeship in the best sense of the word. Os course these may seem hard ideas of a woman who Is not yet married, but In a way Sam’s dereliction was not grievous and his punishment seems most hard. I quite agree with you, however, that Mr. White, his boss, is a beast and my old “mammy” used to say that "man liked to think of himself as king of the boastles.” Mr. White is surely deserving of that honor. Here comes someone to take me out motoring. Will finish my letter tomorrow. NEXT: Tiie letter continued— Solace for a dreary heart.

Dame Fashion Is Prepared for June Graduate With Pretty Selection of Commencement Frocks
Organdie and Voile Are Popular Materials This Season,
By MARIAN HALE. NEW YORK. May 16.—The girl who selected 1923 as the year in which to receive her diploma made a wise selection. Fashion has anticipated her wants this season in an unusually gracious manner. Not-in many seasons have we had such a bewildering collection of beautiful white cotton frocks to select from. The bouffant organdie with its close bodice and sh *rt sleeves is mounted over a satin slip and trimmed with rows of dainty tucking, rows of lace or perhaps festoons of organdie flowers. Gives Dash of Color After graduation, when the allwhite effect is no longer desired, a slip of pink, blue or even silver cloth may replace the white one, and one o' the luscious sashes of supple satin ribbon added to give the dash of color that brings out the white cotton so effectively. The voiles this season are particularly lovely. Some are solidly embroidered. Some have laeey stripes, others are very soft and fine ana entirely plain and are trimmed with smocking, tucks, pleating or anv cf the fashionable laces—Valenciennes, fillet, Irish or even Chantilly. Sleeves are either a minus quantity entirely or merely apologies in the way of caps or puffs of lace. The Jenny neckline is still featured though It is by no means obligatory. The drop shoulder line is gaining In favor, particularly with the bouffant skirt. Waistline is Lower The waistline is slightly below normal ordinarily though It is by no means so low as It was last season. The low line is not nearly so attractive on the youthful figure as it Is on the more mature. For commencement, with the graduation frock, pumps of white satin or kid are the proper accompaniment, but for other occasions

Martha Lee Says Friends Often ‘Strangers’ After Long Separation^ The years between 14 and 20 are the formative years in tha lives of boys and girls. During those years, most boys and girls change greatly. Imagine the situation, then, of a boy and girl who, after a cast* of “puppy love,” parted when they were 14 and 16. During the next five years they corresponded. Then the boy asked the girl to marry him. They have not seen each other for five years. Should she accept him?
They know each other, but at the same time they are practically strangers. Os course, their letters tell much; but the*-.; is much more that letters cannot tell. . The solution is for them to meet again and become acquainted with each other as they are now. before pledging themselves to each other.
Complicated Situation Dear Miss Lee—l am a girl of Iff. I used to live in another city. It has been five years since I left there Therr was a fellow two years older that 1 cared very much for Our liking tins grown to love. I have not seen him for five years, but we have corresponded. A while ba--k he asked me to marry him. Would that be all right? He has asked me to come there next month to make them all a visit. Should I so’ He said we eould come ba*k together and get mamsi in Indianapolis He lives i n Ohio. LOVIN’ FOOL. I think it a good jdea for you to go hack to your old home for a visit.
