THE IN ULAN AEOLJJS TIMES
Martha Lee Sqys ‘Applied’ Sophistication Harms Sensitive Girl
The girl who smokes and drinks just to be a “good fellow” is easy to distinguish in a,crowd. She looks self-conscious and it is quite evident that she is wondering what mother would think. At the same time, she seems to be enjoying the excitement of doing something she knows she shouldn’t do. If she does this often enough, she :
may grow actually % to like it She may become an “excitement-eater,” with an appetite for “thrills” more insatiable than that of the bum per.” Because her character was more sensitive to begin with than that of her girl companions, she is harmed even more. She puts on a hard finish of sophistication which is out of keeping with her natural girlishness. Then she wonders why she is not happy. Ultra-Modern Suitor My Deal- Mlbs Dee: What would you advise? I am in love with a girl who will not lead my kind of life. I think every girl should keep up with the times, and dance, smoke and drink, don't you? It would be proper for her to do those things as long as she is with me. don’t you think? Os course. I would not expect her to go out On these kind ot parties with any other fellow. I always join in with her crowd and never say a word. SKULL. So you expect to teach the girl you say you love all the tricks of your kind of life, and then expect her to use them only when she is with you. What an optimist! You would expect her, too, I suppose, to put on her old character, the one which first attracted your devotion, when you got tired of her in the new disguise. You probably fell in what you think is love with this girl because she was different from the girls In your crowd. If not, you are merely physically attracted and you soon will tire of her anyway. Don't you see that if you changed her and made her like all the other girls, your love would die quickly? It may he good fun to go on parties with the girls who are experts in dancing, drinking and smoking. But marriage Is supposed to last a long time, and is made up of many things besides amusement. lam afraid your love is pretty weak, and 1 should advise you to keep it to yourself until it can stand on its own feet.
Priggish Actions My Dear Miss Lee: I am a girl of 19. I work in ail office where the girls have no refinement. The way they hang around the men is terrible. But every one says they are not as bad as they were since I jam here. I do not care to become friendly with this kind of people. I come in in the morning and bid them the time of the day. I then go to my typewriter. I do not have enough work to keep me busy, but X do something else to occupy my time so I do not have to speak to them. These gir's. a* well as the men. think lam stuck on mjself and independent. I do not care for them to think this of me. but still want them to know that I am superior to them in reflnemiait. Can you tell me how to act? 2. I have no gentlemen friends. I have an invitation to a dance. It is essential that I attend because I am on the committee. There are quite a few fellows that X could get to go with me, but the one that I really care to ask knows me only from seeing me. I now meet him at leaet once a week. Neither speaks, but we pay quite a bit of attention to one another. He la the one 1 would.like to ask. hut do not know if he can dance. I would like to have a date with him before, lo see If he could dance. How could I have a date with him? INDEPENDENCE. 1. The others In your office probably consider you a “prig’’ for trying to act superior. BuJ are you really superior? Character is what counts. You have no reason to act as if contact with these people may corrupt you, Just because you happen to have been born in a different environment. You don’t have to act like these people, but make friends with them. 2. The first part of your letter helps f'xpiain why you have no “gentleman friends." Gentlemen do not like snobs. You could hardly lay claim to “su perior refinement” if you invited a man whom you have never met to have a “date” and then take you to a dance. No, Independence, that is not the way. Better find son.e other escort. LESTER: Y'ou might write the girl another note, asking whether you might call. Then let the matter ride. She will come around, I imagine. But don't let her be too sure of you, or she will repeat her treatment.

LETTER FROM MRS. JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON TO MRS. JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT MY* DEAR DAUGHTER: I read in the paper this morning of the disappearance of a man by the name Os Harry Ellington. Is he the husband of that pretty little friend of yours? I am quite sure he must be, for the papers say he was a broker, and speak of his wife as having the name of Ruth. Oh, I am so sorry for her, but I never did like him. I thought he was a scoundrel from the first time 1 saw him. I never could see just what Jack found in him that made him so friendly with him. I do hope that Jack wasn’t concerned In any of his dealings. Your father expressed the same thing tonight. “It seems that he, too had warned Jack against Ellington, who has not had a very good name among stock brokers for some time. Your father said that young men are very apt to want to make money rapidly and that Ellington seemed quite a -plausible fellow, consequetntly he might have enveigled Jack into some of his schemes. He dismissed the subject, however, by saying that he was sure Jack had too much common sense. I told him that Jack had too much love for you to risk the money that was needed for you and ltttle Jack in some stock gambling operation. If you can do it without hurting her any more than she is already hurt will you please convey my greatest sympathy to Ruth Ellington, She did not look happy when I was there, and although she probably is better off now that he Is gone, yet it always injures woman’s pride quite as much as it hurts her love

You will be pleased at the dresses displayed here for they are modish in cut, well finished and made of excellent grade materials In the newest weaves. In fact the Inexpensive dresses found here are comparable in value It seems to Peggy Ann to many of the higherpriced dresses found elsewhere. The blouse department In this store Is well stocked with models that would do credit to your best suit —you realize how Important a place the blouse plays In the appearance of your costume. You will And blouses of the dressier kind as well as those of more tailored character. The newest blouses are of hip length and in many cases are heavily embroidered and beaded. • • • Thorn Are So Many Things To —taka one’s time that it is hard to And time to take care of little personal tasks —for instance the proper care of your fingernails. This may seem like a little thing, but it Is important for a girl’s hands play a very Important place In her individual personality. Many find it is easier to make regular visits to a beauty parlor and have a manicure than to trust to finding time to do it herself. For fifty cents the Jane Halcomb Shoppe, 608 Kahn Bldg, will give your fingernails expert attention and care. • • Those Chilly Evenings Are Beginning —to call for a fireside—isn't that right? When the chill begins to creep in with the dusk there is a sense of peace and contentment in knowing that the evening may he spent inside one’s own little domain. And what makes more for the pleasure and joy of an evening at home than a bit of music? Probably there Is no kind of music that is as satisfactory as that of the phonograph—because it requires no effort and provides at the same time a variety of music to suit every varying mood. Os all makes of phonographs there is none that gives the same pleasurable satisfaction as a Brunswick does. The superior mechanical construction of the Instrument and the very beautiful cabinet work are responsible for this. Stop In at the Baldwin Piano Company, 18 North Penn St., and ask to see their new models and hear their latest records. You will be delighted with the records, for they are put opt by the very best artists in their own particular lines. This department very courteously demonstrates records and machines at any and all times.

when the world knows that some other woman means more to her husband than she herself. There, I think I have said enough about this deplorable case. How Is dear little Jack? Leslie, you will forgive mo when I say that I do, not think I could be grandmother to any sweeter baby If you had really borne him yourself, and besides you know I feel quite like a beneficent old stork because you konw I brought him to you. I am glad you are feeling so well, but aren’t you taxing your strength too much by letting your cook go? Os course, when I was your age, I was doing my own work, with two babies on my hands, and no nurse for either of them. But life today has grown so complex, my dear. There are so many more outside calls on a young married woman than there were in my time. However, you know best and I am sure that old Nanny is a perfect treasure to you. What do you hear from Jack’s mother? Is she well? Had a long letter from Alice today. Am sending it to you in this letter. Your loving MOTHER.

FASHIONS FOR OCTOBER. Scintillating indeed are the frocks for formal wear. Velvet Is playing a place of ever Increasing Importance. Patent leather will be more and more popular for shoes as the days fly by. Lace frills, lingerie trimming and ruchlngs decorate the smartest satins.
The Ever Increasing Popularity —of fur has led designers for all kinds of women's clothing to resort to Its use; no longer is it relegated to use on coats and suits, but dresses, negligees and hats show the beauty of Its embellisnment. A perfectly stunning, close fitting hat shown in the French Salon of the Wm. H. Block Company's millinery department, was made of Chinese blue velvet with motiffs of mole artistically applied over Its entire surface. Bright colored threads further enhanced Its beauty. There are Innumerable models in this salon that really oombine the artistry and skill of the very best domestic and foreign designers. The hats are of the newest shapes and colorings and show the smartest trimmings. One of the biggest advantages in buying from this department lies in the fact that there is such a big assortment that it is comparatively easy for every Individual to find a hat that is especially well suited to her own personality and adapted to wear with the costume for which it is Intended. Very courteous salesladies, trained in the art of properly fitting a hat, make purchasing a hat here a manifold pleasure. • • • These Auiumn Days Are Gorgeous —and their beauty leaves with us a distinct call for the open. It’s a great time to hunt —if you don't have a gun of the right sort—stop in at the Gus Habich Company, 142 E. Washington St., and see their display. A gun provides the means of hours and hours of pleasure and recreation—and of the sort that does a person the most good—that spent in the great out-doors. • • • Os Course You May Have A Different , —idea about this particular subject. hut it has always been Peggy Ann’s contention that much of the smartness of one’s appearance lies

in her shoes. Shoes should be chosen carefully, first of all for proper fitting, for it is absolutely Immaterial how beautiful the shoes . may be if they are 111 fitting the wearer will never possess any grace or charm. Next —shoes should be chosen with a thought to the type of wear they are to receive—if they are to be worn on the street they should be a different pattern and material than those selected for theater wear. Color plays a big place in the shoes selected this year so this feature should receive consideration. In fact selecting a pair of shoes is such a big job according to Peggy Ann’s way of thinking that she buys he. shoes at the WalkOver Shop always for here she has the authentic advice of the right sort of shoe men as well as her own judgment to guide her. Y'esterday she bought two pairs here—one was of patent with a tiny elastic gore, a feature of many of the newest models: this shoe has covered block heels and suede lattice work forming the instep—it was a very pretty model. The other pair was of cocoa brown suede with kid strap of darker shade In a cut out model. When one buys a pair of Walk-Over shoes she buys satisfaction not only for the present, but for months to come. • • • Throngs of People Are Hurrying —through the departments of the Pettis Dry Goods Company in the attempt to take advantage of all the odrgains that this store is offering on its Seventieth Anniversary Sale. A lot of beautiful new merchandise of advance style war bought for the purpose of making this sale the greatest in the history of the store and the values are such that they have elicited nothing, but favorable comment. Some of the loveliest dresses that Peggy Ann has "ever seen may be found in the dress department on the second floor-cloth dresses for the street, velvet dinner gowns, evening frocks may be had in lovely array. A brown velvet frock with decorations of orange would make a very practical purchase for it could be worn on semi-evening, afternoon, or theater occasions. On this same floor may-* be found suits and coats of modish cut and unquestionable value, ranging from street to afternoon wear. Dress accessories play a very Important part in the general appearance and the newest things in gloves, hosiery, collars, and neckwear may be found on the first floor. Ctnn
