Sue in Letter to Ilene Depicts Late Summer Charms of Wisconsin v Star Lake, Wis., Aug. 31. Dearest Ilene: Os a sudden call of the north got too strong for me, and I kicked the Indianapolis dust off my heels and here I am in the Wisconsin vastness playing around with the loons, skunks, muskellonge and Stubby Ohr. And of all the wild animals up here, the most exciting is Stubby Ohr. Since Mrs. Ohr, Miss Cerene and Elizabeth and Miss Catherine Bailey motored up here all the way from Indianapolis, my life has been a long and serious complication of extracting

Stubby, who is the mildest mannered little Boston bull you ever saw, from too intimate contact with ferocious white kittens, belligerent chip munks, to say nothing (or as little as possible) of the skunks! It’s been fun romping around up here in heavy clothes and wool socks. Every time we go into Mlnoqua or Eagle River, we see cute sport combinations—white accordion pleated skirts with different colored suede jackets. Yesterday the Ohrs, Miss Bailey and I drove to Minoqua to spend the day with Mrs. Horace Wood, who has a perfectly lovely summer home just across the lake from the town. The Henry Talbott place, the Dickson's and Mrs. Wood’s all adjoinMrs. Wood’s cottage, “The Norways,” is built of rustic logs. There is a cozy, comfortable living room hung with Indian things with a huge fireplace, a large sun room windowed on three sides and five bedrooms. Other buildings contain the dining room and kitchen and servants’ quarters. It is furnished with such comfort and charm that you would love to curl up with a book, a cigaret, a Persian cat and spend the rest of your life there. No wonder Mr. Wood comes up in March when ihe lake is frozen over and he can walk straight across from his cottage to town. * The Henry Talbott place is for sale now- It is charming on a much more extensive scale. Fourteen bedrooms, steps that ramble up and down, a number of guest houses, attractive pump house. Each room is fitted out in artistic color scheme with much attention to detail. After lunch Mrs. Otto Frenzel brought little Eleanor Dickson Frenzel over to call, and Ilene, you’ve never seen a prettier baby. She’s just two and has golden hair and blue eyes like her mother's. They call her “Dick.” She walks and talks and looks adorable very successfully. There may be better repart ?e in the world, Ilene, than that of Mrs. Harry Ohr, btit I just haven’t happened to have heard of it- She has kept me in gales of laughter ever since she arrived, while Cerene and Elizabeth look on with a none too approving eye. She’s the most wonderful sport' And as for hooked rugs, my dear, she’s on her twenty’seventh! She’s even got me inspired to the point of indiscretion. I’m just cross-stitching everything in sight. I’m going to dinner now, darling, where there’s whipped cream all over apple pies and raspberry tarts and things. Cerene Ohr says that the only member of their family to retain his yuothful figure is Stubby. We’ve all gained horizontally. The Eatchelovs from home were up here, and Mr. and Mrs- Resetter from Chicago, who know the Moggs who have a cottage at Lake Geneva, if that isn’t too involved. Love to you, old dear, and write soon to your devoted, but hay-fever-ish SU3 ’

Fashion Hints

BY HEDDA HOYT CJi’ii'd r.sil Fashion Editor Velvet p.nd velvet combined with contrasting fabrics will play important roles in fall millinery. Plain, embossed and printed velvets will perhaps be most important although th® following combinatinos are also frequently shown; velvet and velours, velvet and satin, velvet and felt, velvet and bengaline, velvet and brocade and velvet and gold leather. It is thought that plain velours and felts will prevail for morning wear while velvets and combinations cf velvet and other fabrics will rule for afternoon occasions. Perhaps it is due to the velvet vogue, that turbans of draped type are returning to fashion. One sees many turbans among the French millinery as well as among American models. In selecting a dress trimmed with tiers, select one which has diagonal tiers rather than horizontal tiers as the former types are newer. The slightly raised waistline Is suggested in many of the advanced fall gowns, oftimes the raising of the waist being suggested at the front only. A horizontal drape or tuck may. be all that is necessary to suggest the raising of the waist. Black lace used as a lingerie item, for trimmnig or instead of fabric is emphasized in fall collections. En-tire-step-ins of black scallopededged faces with the scallops forming the border are shown for dressy wear. When black lace is used for trimming it is generally combined with the pale pink georgette or net and this combination is repeated often. Brown is to be one of the outstanding fall fabric shades. Almost all of the darker browns will be used as well as woodbrown tones and reddish browns. Shoes, hosiery and handbags of brown will be important due to the vogue for costume harmony. Carnelian and jac.e Jewelry will replace the popular pinkish rosequartz as fall advances. Both real and Imitation stones of carnelian and Jade are being made into chokers, bracelets, rings and earrings. Club Opens Season Mrs. Robert Lewis was hostess Thursday for the opening meeting of the recently organized Pierian Study Club. She is vice president of the club and Mrs. Edward E.

Mr. and Mrs. Sam 1.. Spratt, stars at staying out of divorce court. By NEA Service ELLENBORO, N. C., Sept. 2. Jack Spratt and his wife gained Mother Goose fame for being unusually well mated. Anothjr Spratt family has set a real ”fe record for domestic felicity. Mr. and Mrs. Sam Spratt have stayed married two-thirds of a century. They have spent their sixtysix years together in the peace of the Carolina mountains, and seem to have incorporated that peace into their lives. They recently celebrated their anniversary at the home of a son, J. s. Spratt., Sitting beside his "sweetheart,” as he always calls his wife, Mr. Spratt explained the secret of their matrimonta! success. “We've just lived along in love,” he said. "We were married just as I left for the war, back in ’6l, and when I came out alive, we were so glad that we got started right. If the old lady gets to arguing, I just leave her alone and let her have her way awhile and all is well. Or if 1 am cantankerous, she backs out ano lets me have my way, and so we never get mad at the same time. “We’ve never really had a cross word between us.” Both are hard workers. Spratt, at the age of 89, does chores around the farm of his son, where t?*ey live now. When younger, he ran his own farm, where Mrs. Spratt did all the housework and bore nine children, all of whom inherited their parents’ love of farm-life and became farmers or farmers’ wives. Spratt has chewed tobacco for seventy-eight years and expects to go on chewing until he dies. But he gave up shaving fifty years ago. No razor has touched his beard since that time. As for strong drink and strong language, he condemns both. Each night he reads to his wife from a Bible that has been in his family for 150 years. Mrs. Spratt, his “one and only love,” soon will be 85. “And if you don’t believe that the old lfidy loves me, I’ll prove Jt. I am still telling the same stories I told sixty years ago, and the old lady still enjoys them. Isn’t that proof of her love?” Spratt asked.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

When a Man's in Love Is There Way to Detect it? BY MARTHA LEE “How can I tell if he is In love with me?” That’s one of the most frequent questions the girls ask of this column. Let’s arrive at the answer by coming the other way ’round, £trls. There are quite a few ways to judge when “he” is not in love. To begin with, don’t decide he has lost his heart to you because he says sweet things and looks soulful. A lot of men think that it’s just normally polite to hand out compliments to women. Their “line” is likely to be practically the same to every woman they say more than

“how-d’ye-do” to. Don’t gather too much from the way “he” looks at you. Os course, his glance If It’s deep and soulful may mean Just what you want It to mean, but the chances are very good (If he commits himself to no language but that of the eyes), that he means nothing of the kind and is merely expressing his general approval of you as a representative of the fair sex. Don’t think he’s in love because he monopolizes your time. He can find you an interesting companion without having lost his heart. Does He Love Her? Dear Martha Lee—l would be o happy If you would tell me something. It means so much to me. I can not tell you how much. It is simply that I want to know If you think the man who Is the dearest thin? in the world to me. really cares for me. Sometimes I think he does care for me and then again I loae all hope. He asks me for lots of dates, but what troubles me Is that he also has dates with other girls, and he speaks awfully well of several girls I know, and what bothers me most is. as far as 1 can find out. he tells them about me just about what he tells me of them, and I can not Judge what he thinks of me. Some times the look In his eyes Is almost like ho adores me and other times he looks perfectly Indifferent. MAE. Well, to play safely, Mae, I would go on the assumption that he is indifferent. If he were in love with you, I don’t think he would devote so much time to the other girls. She Was Ungrateful Dear Martha Lee—l would certainly like your advice about a woman that I have kept company with for .about a year When I was In another city, she was 111 twice, the last time In a hospital for an operation and as she did not have very much money. I helped her with Bhe was married before and has a child that I like very much, so I did all I could to help. Not long after her Illness. 6he told me she dl3 not love me any more I have a good position and really am Interested In her. I have found out that two women are the cause of her getting dlssatlsfled. Now. Is she worth considering further or shaU I lor sQ H jj er? I think you will do well to give her no further thought, John- Her ingratitude for the help you tried to give her indicates that she has not the qualities that you are doubtless looking for. Os course, she car not help It If she does not love you, but don’t take any encouragement from the fact that she was influenced by the other women. If she really cared, what they said would not affect her decision, as she is evidently quite old enough to know her own mind. Printed Velvet Polka dotted velvet, in green and blue combinations, fashions the skirt and peacock blue musette the bodice of a cute new frock for afternoon. Evening Velvet A mauve-raspberry transparent velvet evening gown in the new moulded silhouette has crystal shoulder straps and a large crystal belt buckle. Clean Skillets Greasy cooking vessels can be cleansed easily if you will add a bit of soda to the dishwater. — • Borax Water If light colored hosiery is stained from blacx shoes, put a little borax in the water. It removes stain and makes washing easy. Non-Skid Device To prevent a plate from slipping when you set it on ice in the refrigerator, place an ordinary fruit jar rubber under it.
