MISS GALE AT CONCLAVE SEES WAR OUTLAWRY Convention of University Women Hears Playwright. “The outlawry of war through new levels of perception and life, will be our next possible contact with spirit, power and the beauty of the constitution of life,” said Miss Zona Gale, playwright at the Thursday luncheon of the national convention of the American Association of University Women at the <iaypool In proof of her point, Miss Gale poke of the change in art and '.scholarship in the past, and of the change in novels, the superseding of old arrangements of various values, “until there is visible anew pat term of the old spiritual treasure At Intervals these new arrange ments take place Jn any art, jusl as In education and government. “Freedom has a tecnique. In the end it depends on selection, and without that selectiveness freedom destroys Itself. “The words relativity and fourth dimension hint to us of worlds be- ' ond our present ones, and tell us of new levels of experience and erreptlon.” Meetings for various committees were held during the morning and afternoon.

' Mrs. Catt Speaks A ringing challenge to American women was sounded at the open meeting Wednesday evening when Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt and Dr. James Shot well lectured on world peace and the league of Nations. Mrs, Catt said: "Every nation knows how to make and carry on war. But there Is no machinery for making peace. We—the richest country in the world, prosperous because of the war—have made a program toward war.

Letter From Beatrice Summers to Leslie Prescott
My Dear Leslie: It haa been such a long time since we have exchanged letters that I have forgotten whether you owe me one or whether I am In your debt. It doesn’t matter, however, one way or the other. You and I are too good and too old friends not to write one another when we have anything to say. I can’t think of you with two babies. Leslie. Has the responsibilities of motherhood sobered you at all? Os course, f know that you have money enough to delegate the duties to someone else. You see, T remember you as one of the gayest and happiest of girls. I never could think of you as having children of your own and I thought it very strange when you adohted Little Jack, hut after adopting him J thought It stranger that you should subject yourself to the pain of another that was flesh of your flesh. Just now Lam wondering what children are like and what they do in the lives of husbands ard wives when they make their appearance on the scene. Yes. dear, you have guessed it I am going to have a baby. Dick Is quite crazy about the idea. Men always are. you know. They seem to have an insane desiri to perpetuate their names upon the scroll of posterity. I don’t think it ever enters their minds that they may perpetuate their little idiosyncrasies and. vices as well. Os myself, however, T am not so sure that I am happy over this new complication that has come into my life. You know that when T married Dick and came out here I came into an entirely new environment. I hs.ve just become used to it. I have just realized the point where T have a feeling that it has broadened my mind and enlarged my life’s horizon and now it is all going to be changed again. This will probably sound as strange to you, Leslie, as your words' sounded to me when you told me you were expecting a child and were most happy about It. Most people seem to think that I am one of those mother-woman who are always unhappy unless they have a baby In their arms. On the contrary, I look upon motherhood with the greatest of dread. In the first place I am almost sure that giving birth to a child will kill me. You probably do not know unless Sally has told you that I cannot bear pain. The aching of a tooth has been known to drive me Into convulsions. I know It Is silly but it is a physical failing which I cannot overcome. Even to think of great pain makes me faint.

Bu United Preen * NEW YORK, April 9.—Should the April sun behavo Itself Sunday and smile upon a mile of wealth between Forty-Second and Fifty-Ninth Sts., Fifth Ave. will see Its most glittering spectacle of equlsite Easter attire. Easter, of course, comes not to Fifth Ave, alone. The hundred thousand persons who stroll upon its broad sidewalks, eyeing one another in self-conscious though friendly amusement do not entirely represent the holiday spfrlt felt round the world in remembrance of the resurrection. But nowhere can be seen such a gay parade of fashion’s whims. Last autumn over drawing boards sat designers who must forget that the trees are dying as they create springlike styles. Throughout the winter the needle trades were busy so that Easter might gladden the heart of milady. Accessories Count Most And Sunday the ideas, artistry and salesmanship of °lx months will have its crux. Seldom if ever before have women had such glorious opportunities for decoration. * It Is a season where accessories count for more than necessities.

So Sylvia the Grandmother lifts her on to her lap and tells her all about the pig that went to market, the pig that stayed at home . . . end all about the rest of that famous family of pigs. No one can tell stories th<* way Grandmother tells them! Then Sylvia the Third sleepily kisses her goodnight and is carried upstairs to bed by her mother. And the grandmother is alone, once more . . . with her memories. For old age is the harvest time of memories. And Sylvia the Grandmother's memories are tender ones that leave a smile on her old face as she leans I Kick in her big chair. For her. this is the best part of her whole life. It is the time of fulfillment, the time that Browning meant when he wrote: “Growing old along with me. The best is yet to be— The last of life for which the first was made."

The predominance of the ensemble In suitings will bring forth more large hats than usual. However, small, tailored bangkok hats turned down in front and up In back, will be popular. As To Footgear As to footgear, booteries have featured displays of blonde satin and pale gray. A diverting novelty is offered in shoes with alligator bows and buckles. The ensemble idea has emphasized the dressy co-.t. The straight backline, with flaring skirt in front, trimmed with white fur, is certain to provide a graceful touch to the Easter parade. And, throwing a leaf from the masculine book of dress, the Prince Wales coat, double breasted and slit up the back has proved popular. Perhaps more riotous colors have prevailed iR the past. The tendency towards pastels has been evident in ajl of the shops Light tints of ashes of roses, French blue and olive green have marked the early showings. There may be few things .real about New York's Easter, but Its’ very pretiy.

Martha Lee Says HUSBAND-HUNTER USES CHARMS AS WEAPONS
Back in pre-historic days, the cave man fought for his bride and carried her off to his eave. Today it is the woman who tights for her man, and carries him off to make a home for her.
However, she does not fight as the cave man fought, with large clubs and stones. Her weapons are gentler, and subtler. She fights with pretty clothes and enchanting smiles, and charming mannerisms. But her aim is as certain as that of the cave man who used the crude weapons of his time. There is another, an Important, difference between the methods used by the cave man of long ago and those employed by the husbandseeker of today. The cave man fought in the open. The husbandhunter does not even reveal that she is fighting. She knows, if she Is wise, that, though man no longer wins his bride in the pre historic way, he still has enough of the cave man in him to want to win her with a feeling of victory. So she lets him think that he is the wooing and the winning. He never sees her look of triumph. Husband Hunting Dear Martha Lee: I am a grt 22 year* old and am deeply in lore with a man two year* older. He i* very popular, but I think he like* me better than the other sri-l*. He has not asked me to marry him, but I think he mijht pretty soon. Now what I want to know is how to I rep these other girts froßn retting- him away from me. They all run after him and call him on the telephone and tell him he i* the moat wonderful man In the world. He laughs at them. But do you think he really likes it and just laughs tc pretend he does notj Would I have more chance if I did that, too? DAISY. Well, I should say not. Be different, Daisy. The others run after him. Keep him running after you. You have the “inside track.” Keep it by continuing your present method of charming, whatever it may be, as evidently it Is the one the man likes best. Weight of Girls Dear Miss Ix-e: Is i\b pounds lon much for a girl nearly 1T to weighl will be 1" in two weeks. My sister thinks it is too much. She is 18 and weigh* ninety pounds. MICKEY. Height, as veil as age, determine the correct weight for a person, so I cannot tell whether you are overweight or not. One table gives the average weight for girls 5 feet 1 inch tall, from 15 to 19 years old, as 114 pounds. Your sister very probably is under weight. Another for ‘Fair Chance’. My Dear Miss Lee: I saw in your 'Nilumn recently where a young woman wanted a fair chance to make good in the world I rather agree with this woman that there arc too many people who would rathCT- give you a kick than a helping hand.
