He Never Takes Me Out■ Wives Often as Much ■K. at Fault as Husbands By MARTHA LEE 4<TVyrY husband simply will not take me out. He comes home at night and sits around and reads or works in the yard.” Well, those are both good, wholesome ways of spending an evening. The wives know this. They do not object to the way he spends his time, but they do object, strenuously and often vociferously to the fact that they work around the house all

day, doing labor that tires them as completely as a man’s work tires him, and then must spend the evening without companionship, without recreation and often without even conversation. That is an arid life, a mentally boring life. Everyone likes change, some form of caviar after a day of corn beef and cabbage. And mostly the women who are deprived of this normal desire are women who need it badly. They grow stale and stagnant without it. But just how many of these women have no one but themselves to blame for it all? How many of them have failed to cultivate charm, or having cultivated it, have allowed it to slip away. I get weary of women complaining about the humdrum existence of home life. It can be as romantic, as intriguing as any other work on earth. In fact, I would even go so far as to say it can be more romantic and intriguing, For a woman who can create a home, a real home, has talent that should be cherished above everything else on earth. What can test a woman's ingenuity, her natural ability more thoroughly that the raising of healthy, normal children? What novel, poem, career is as flattering to a woman as the fact that she has created a good home, lovely children and a happy husband? That is the supreme career. It is a false perception that home making is anything else. Ts you are a failure in it, feel just

Miss Meyer Is Bride in Church Rite Sacred Heart Church was the scene Os the marriage at 9 this morning of Miss Regina Meyer daughter of Mrs. Emma C. Meyer 1309 Comar St., and John C. Obergfell, son of Mrs. Mary Obergfell. The Rsv. John Joseph Bronger performed the ceremony. Miss Irene Roeh n and Miss Mathilda Gasher sang Mss Louise Obergfell, sister of the bridegroom, as maid of honor wore a lace and chiffon dress of parchment color with coral satin bow and streamers. She wore a hat to match and carried a shower of roses and summer lilacs. Miss Martha Oliger. Greensburg, bridesmaid, wore a flesh colored chiffon dress and large lace collar. Her hat matched and she carried roses and delphinium. The bride wore a gown of Chantilly lace over satin caught with a pearl and ribbon ornament* The skirt was longer in the back. Her veil, fastened with a cap of lace, was caught with orange blossoms. She carried a shower of roses gnd valley lilies. William Obergfell, brother of the bridegroom, was best man and Rex Young and Ollie Bach were ushers A wedding breakfast at tne home of the bride’s mother, followed the service. Mr. and Mr?. Obergfell left immediately for a wedding trip to Wisconsin. They wiil be at home after Aug. 1 at 1309 Comer Ave. The bride traveled in a tan ensemble with hat and shoes to match. Farewell Party Given Today for Mrs. J. E. Harris Mrs. Magnus Mansoh, 3850 Kenwood Ave., entertained with a luncheon bridge party today in honor of Mrs. Joseph Ebb Harris who will leave soon to live in Cleveland, Ohio. Yellow marguerites were used for the centerpiece of the luncheon table which was lighted with yellow tapers. Places were marked by the favors which were small dolls drssed in yellow and carrying tiny yellow suitcases. Assisting the hostess was her mother, Mrs. Nellie Benson. With them and Mrs. Harris were Desdames Charles Hansen, Red Collier, Bertha Millikan, Albert Cordes and Max Schoener. Decorative Bell Pulls Sleeve bands from Chinese priests’ robes, sewed together are made into bell pulls to be hung, in these servantless days, merely as decorative wall hangings. A piece of jade at top and a tassel below complete an American made novelty. Decorative Pottery Italian jugs and vases make most Interesting ornaments. Their decorations of flowers preclude their use tfr flowers but they are a joy to see. Moorish pottery is interesting for Its color and shape, but can’t compare in texture with English doliestic makes. Shoulder Ornament One should have a jeweled ornament for the right shoulder of an evening gown. But it should be gorgeously rich, perhaps a diamond flower. Black-White Anew and stunning version of the black-white mode is a frock that has a white satin blouse, with pointed inserts of .hand-embroidery end a tiered skirt of black chiilon.

as badly about it, is unsuccessful, as incapable as an actress who is given her “big chance” and “flops.” You are as much to blame. You are responsible for the failure. I have a letter from a woman whose married miseries combine all the things I have mentioned above She says: Dear Martha Lee: For ten years my life lias been sad and no sunshine is yet in sight. My husband works in the yard every night to keep from spending a fittle time with me because someone else does not like to see us together. I work hard all during the day and want so much the companionship of my husband during the evening; some recreation and fun. What can I do about it? LONESOME. There is a failure all the way around. Lonesome. Do you realize how completely you have the “drop” on the other woman if you would care to use it? The man is your husband. You hold him legally. It is up to your own self to see that you hold him mentally and spirit • ually as well. Make yourself charming and attractive, so that he will be proud to take you out, proud to have his friends meet you, happy in your company. Wage a silent and cheerful battle for his companionship. You can arrange it, if you wish. If you were charming enough to win him in the first place, it is up to you to be charming enough to hold him now. Don Juan: I do not see where you would gain anything by telling this thing. If you wish to be a real friend, talk to the girl, make her realize the injustice of the thing she is planning on doing. She is the only one who can be benefited by the knowledge of what she is doing.

BY JULIA BLANSHARD NEA Service Writer NEW YORK, July 18.—Play and learn how to live! That is the modern psychology of toys, as revealed in a noval display in New York called a “Play in Education Exhibit.” Psychologists have collaborated in selecting the toys shown. All of them function in training the child in some way. They are arranged in four groups graded to the various ages of children. For the toddler, 1 to 3 years; for nursery tots, 3 to 4;

The deep V opening outlines a vestee of contrasting color; and would be nice in lingerie, or lace.' It lengthens the lines of the front. The skirt shows the popular uneven hem line, and flares prettily at the sides below the shaping of the waist portions. The tucks at the shoulder afford slight fulness and relieve and soften the lines. Lace in black or gray would be a good development for this model. It is also attractive in satin. The pattern is cut in nine sizes: 38, 40, 42, 46, 48, 50, 52 an.d 54 inches bust measure. A 44-inch size will require 4'4 yards of 35-inch material together with % yard of contrasting' material for facing on vestee and belt. The width of the dress with fulness extended is about 24 yards. Every day The Times prints on this page pictures of the latest fashions, a practical service for readers who wish to make their own clothes. Obtain this pattern by filling out the abovee coupon, including 15 cents (coin preferred), and mailing it to the Pattern Department of The, Times. . Delivery is r ,ade in about a week.

MARYE and ‘MOM’ a * u THEIR LETTERS

Dear Marye: If you are having as warm a summer as we are, the seashore must be a godsend to you. I am very glad I made up a few cool voile dresses this spring, when I had the energy to sew, so that now I can at least look comfortable, no matter how the mercury climbs. You too, were lucky to have ail your new clothes right at this time, but I think you may overestimate i their importance to you, for you have never had to depend upon French frocks to assert your individuality. It is my theiry that women rarely win battles over men with clothe.., for the simple reason that most men pay so little attention to them. You remember how Jane Martin used to be such a trial to you girls because with the poorest clothes of any of you, she could always walk off with any man she wanted. While the rest of you were frying to look smart, she was always content tc look feminine, and pinned ner faith to lace collars and bows. You could never find a man who didn't think she was well dressed. While I never like to have you uncomfortable, even for disciplinary measures, I think it might not be bad for you to see just how attractive your husband is to other women, and possibly to realize that other women may be attractive to him. I am sure Alan loves you devotedly. and that you have no real cause to worry about your friend Helen or the rest of them, but as you say, you have olayed fast and loose with him since 3’our marriage, and it wouldn’t be at all contrary to human uature for him to retaliate a little, now that he finds himself in the advantage. I wish, instead of driving Alan to other women,, through your foolish flirtations, you would just face the situation, and realize that you will never get anywhere, except apart, by such measures. Under your surface sophistication and your rather hard and glittering exterior, I know you for exactly what you are—a very dear, sweet girl who loves her husband, and who wants to hold him, though she wouldn’t admit it, and would SCHLDSSEIt'S O Yesh ChurnedfivmfytShChm

“Don’t do this or that,” is gone. A proper choice of toys interests and challenges hi so he keeps busy, learns to adji himself to his fellows and acqu.res skill in manipulating things. By a proper choice of toys suited to - his age and needs, a child can develop his freedom and avoid being thwarted in an adult environment where everything is too difficult or too uninteresting for them The right toys eliminate the inferiority complex which comes fron: that handicap.

rather die than resort to purely “feminine” tactics. Do be a sensible girl, Marye, and don't jeopardize what you really prize, and what you should value, for a high-handed gesture. The more you write about Mr. Shelton the more I disapprove of him. I don’t trust his type. Forgive me for being so frank. Marye, but I feel you need guiding. All my love. MOM.
