JLike Victor Self-Assured Win Spoils BY ALLENE SUMNER "She’s the luckiest girl I ever knew,” someone said the other day, speaking of our mutual friend Prue. "I never in the world knew any girl to get into things and in with people like she does, .’tow does she manage it Isn’t she 'he cleverest thing you ever heard of?” For we had just heard that Prue had tied up as secretary-companion to a ‘literary lady’ who was about to tour South America. “I guess I won’t have a thing to do but write her letters,” wrote Prue, “for she won’t work. She just pretends she’s ‘literary’ all expenses paid, a chance to see the world, and write my own stuff. Pretty soft, eh wot?” Now I don’t in the least mind Prue’s intimations that she had breezed her way by canny cunning into a “soft snap,” for I know Prue and Prue knows me. But I did mind Alicia’s assumptions that Prue was born plain lucky and was a scheming, self-seeking adventuress who, by dint of knock-’em-down-and-get-what-you-want, got there! I happen to know that Prue works for everything she ever got in a way •that few of us would ever work. (p.o be sure, the gods did give her a start when they gav eher self-as-surance and little surplus shrinking violet qualities. ♦ Once upon a time Prue and I were wandering through Greenwich Village. We passed a certain tea room. There were pottery jars full of buttercups and marigold in the window and we caught a glimpse of red brasses and hickory chairs within. “Gee. I bet somebody interesting keeps this shop!” said Prue, sufficiently mid-West to be thrilled by a village shop. “Let’s go in and talk to them!” “But we don’t know them, and who cares,” I said. But Prue decided she wanteo to know them. She went in, and I went on. Prue met me that night, bubbling over. The girl who kept the fascinating shop was “perfectly fascinating!” Prue had helped her wash dishes and make the luncheon salads! The girl had the duckiest apartment all hung with batik curtains she had made herself. Maybe she would go into partnership with her. Once upon a time Prue skipped about seventeen states from her home state and got a job. By the end cf the first week she was the town mascot- “How’d I get acquainted?” Prue answered us. “Oh, I heard about all the interesting people I knew I’d like, and when I through work at night, I went ground to see them. Funny Why? never known I was in town, and life’s too short to miss the folks you want to know.” I realize that I am not telling a convincing story of a Prue paying any price for her many contacts. The cases mentioned are cases of a Prue doing what she likes. But I have known a Prue, dead-tired from a hard-working day, trotting out to a hospital with a book or posy for—or, not even a friend, just a contact Prue had made. And the contact thus encouraged might come back in the way of an invitation to a “genuine, home-cooked Italian dinner in a real Italian home,” or a gift of a strange carved box, or a confidence that meant a story to thrill one to the marrow. Anybody who wanted to give herself as Prue does, would get her returns of a life more than abundant Most of us “won’t bother.” University Instructor Weds The marriage of Miss Vera Scipio, daughter of Ernest Scipio, of Chalmers, and George W. Rogers, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Rogers, of Bloomington, which took place Tuesday, at the home of the bride’s aunt in Brookscon, has been announced.

MILLINERY MONOTONY ENDS

‘ ■ - W Ip ll V

The monotony of millinery is over; gone is the knockabout hat for wear alike in morning, noon and night. This season the great French designers have again turned to the art of real creation. Distinctiveness and originality feature every new model, both in line and material, and from the many ways in which they are using it, it is evident that silk velvet is their favored pet this season, both by itself and in combination. An occasional hat of satin or taffeta appears as in the

Each joint is rolled in flour seasoned with salt and pepper and quickly browned on all sides in a mixture of butter and lard. Then the heat is reduced, the frying pan covered and the chicken cooked slowly for one hour.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Indicts Men as Unworthy - to Dominate BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Anthony Ludovici’s last volume, ent tled “Man; An Indictment," will make startling reading for the male contingent. For Ludovicl does not mince words when it comes to explaining just what is the matter with modem men. They are going backward very fast, according to this distinguished representative of their sex. He would throw the fear of the Lord and of women into them as he diagrams their decline as lords of the earth. According to this philosopher, women have been able to make such enormous headway in running things not because they are any better or smarter than their forebears, but because the men are such poor fish. The stalwart male has degenerated; woman no longer looks up to him as a superior; she no longer believes that she can never equal him in mentality or accomplishment; she is beginning to suspect that he may, in fact, be a notch below her when it comes to energy, will power and brains. If Ludovici is to be believed, we are Indeed in a sad way. He does not admit that we women have a finger in every pie because we are worthy to help, but simply because the men have become such inert, such careless, such low creatures. I would never think of disputing with this brilliant man. While I may have long had a faint idea that this is the case, in my humble status of female I merely heed what he says and ponder. And as I ponder, the thought comes: Men are sly cretaures. You can’t ever tell what they are up to. If they have permitted us to get the edge on them in so many ways, perhaps they have a reason. Now and then they make verbal protest, but they never really do anything about the way be behave. From the responsibility of the home they have allowed us to go downtown and take up about half the hard work there. In politics, while they still keep the emoluments, they have given us a few jobs. Perhaps there is method in their decline. Personally, knowing their aversion to hard or prolonged labor, I would not be surprised u* within another fifty years we women will be doing all the work. The men may fall, "but don’t worry; they will light on a soft spot. Wed at Shelbyville The marriage of Ivan C. Overman Jr., and Miss Lucie Meyers, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry L. Meyers, took place Wednesday with the Rev. I. C. Overr. an, father of the bridegroom, officiating. The couple will five in Lincoln, Neb., where Mr. Overman is teacher of physical training in one of the high schools.
