Girl Advised to Break Engagement on Finding She Loves Another Man BY MARTHA LEE W'IIAT should an engaged girl do when she discovers that she loves a man other than her fiance? That is one of ?the most difficult questions to solve. There are so many things to consider in a case like that. There is honor and duty and the fact that the feeling might be infatuation rather than real love. And then there is the indication of fickleness that such a change of feeling indicates.

Circumstances so often alter the immensity of the ‘•‘crime.” Oh, there are such countless things to consider. I have a letter from a young girl today who is in such a stew. She is engaged to marry a man who has been away four months. In the meantime she has found (or thought she has found) herself in love with another man! She is frankly worried and horribly disappointed in herself. Here is her letter: Dear Miss Lee—l have a very aueer situation about which X wish to seek your advice. I have been enzazed for several months to a very line boy. one with whom I have been very much in love. Mv family is quite fond of him and are very happy at our engagement. They are doing everything in the world for me. My fiance has been away four months and in that time my other friends have been exceptionally nice to me. They have taken me around to parties and dances in an effort to keep me entertained. Mv engagement to the other bov has not been publicly announced In the time my fiance has been away I have learned to love one of these friends very dearly. I am sure he loves me too. but he is too much of a gentleman to say one word about it—and I. of course would not dare. With lust one sign of affection on my part I am sure we would both be very harpy in having each other. He is lust as wonderful as the other Jpan and in some respect has many good dualities that my fiance does not possess. And best of all. he is here, where I can be with him and enjoy his companionship. I feel that I am displaying a great weakness of character, one that I have detested thoroughly in other people, that of fickleness. What shall I do? IN DOUBT. My dear, as you have suggested by your reference to fickleness, you may merely be infatuated with this other boy. Propinquity is, doubtless, nine-tenths of love. On the other hand you may truly be in love with him. It is evident from your letter that you have not allowed your friendship to be anything but platonic. If, after you have considered the feeling of your fiance, how you will hurt your family and perhaps ruin the opinion the boy you think you love has for you, you still feel that you love him too much to marry your present fiance, by all means break your engagement. It is better to find those things out before marriage than after. It is also much more humane to break an engagement than to get a divorce.

YOUR CHILD Rocking Baby Is Bad Habit

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON With all due respect to the kindly jgrandmother who loves to rock baby £0 sleep, we must insist that he Bhould not be rocked. It sounds heartless, but many sensible things pre—as we interpret the won}. Not altogether because it might jmake him sick, or because he might jget his backbone 0 0 of joint, but Jjecause one of the first bad habits ft baby forms is his unreasoning dejnand to be rocked. If you ever have tried to break a baby of the rocking habit, you may have some conception of what I mean. He should be laid quietly in his bed with the sheet smooth and straight beneath him, and a mattress or folded quilt that has no bumps to make him uncomfortable. He should not have a pillow. Shifting Positions. When he is laid down he usually should be turned on his right side, especially after feeding. But this can be varied, as the soft bones of his head should not have the pressure constantly in the same place. [That is the first don’t on the list. Second! Don’t allow people to toss him up in the air. It speaks lor itself. If no accident happens and he is neither crippled nor killed, it never should be allowed anyway, for a dozen other reasons. Don’t allow a baby to suck his thumb! He will start the habit, but you must stop it. Tie a little mitten on him, or get one of the new protectors they sell at drug stores and tie it over his thumb and wrist for awhile. Pacifiers Banned Don’t give him a pacifier! It almost certainly will affect his mouth, throat and air-passages. Adenoids make children ill and stupid. Just such a simple thing may after the entire course of a child’s life. Don’t think that because he has milk he doesn’t need water. Give frim all he will drink, not too cold.

Advises Women to Take Offices Along With Men By NBA Service "It is time women broke away „..‘n the idea that there are certain womanly jobs and other jobs that only men should hold.’’ This is the opinion of Amy Wren, recently appointed Deputy State Attorney General, the first woman in the East to receive such an honor. "Take the law, for instance,” Miss Wren said. “While there are not many women in the legal profession, every woman lawyer I know has been successful in her work. Why shouldn’t women just go into whatever lines they want, as persons, not just as women? “I do not wish to be considered as a woman when it comes to my legal work. I wish to stand equal with the men. I am trying to administer the office of Federal commissioner as a man would. ‘•Personally I do not like the jobs the world ordinarily calls ‘womanly work.’ In my work I deal mostly with men, though I will say women seem to be going into the bootlegging business, so things may change. "If I were a judge, I should prefer to be a magistrate, for I have never seen why women judges should be only in the women’s and childrens courts. Lawn Social Thursday Members of the Hc?ly Innocence Protestant Episcopal Church, Cedar St. and Fletcher Ave., will entertain with a lawn social and cafeteria supper Thursday evening. Mrs. Edward Ringenberger is in charge of arrangements. The July Circle of Holy Cross Church will entertain with card parties Thursday afternoon and evening and Sunday evening.

It’s a feat of difficulty though to keep his eyes ahead, When he’d rather let them wander to the side of him instead Where he sees a pretty cnoker which in every single bead Has the pattern of a peacock tail—a clever thing indeed.

but not necessarily hot. A bottle is the simplest way. Don’t give him a used bottle twice. Bottle and nipple must be boiled thoroughly before each feeding. Needs Daily Bath Don’t forget to change him immediately, when necessary, and don’t forget that he needs a bath every day and clean clothes every day. Also don’t forget to change his clothes when you put him to bed at night. Don’t disturb him at night for anything except to be fed. Don’t feed him tidbits. Don’t tickle him! Don’t try to make him sit up or walk when he can’t. He’ll give .you plenty of warning when he is ready to do either. Let Him Sleep A baby’s life should be a quiet, comfortable, lazy life. Don’t worry if he sleeps all the time. So much the better. He is building up bone, muscle, nerve, and brain. His brain does about 90 per cent of its physical growing before he is six years old. Don’t turn him over to an ignorant young nurse-girl to look after. What has all this to do with character training? Everything in xthe world! Physical imperfections, illness, malnutrition, or undernourishment, all the things that get their start in early childhood, affect character. To Wed in August Announcement has been made of the engagement of Miss Harriett Caroline Bass, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. P. E. Bass, Shelbyville, to Charles D. Walker, son of Mrs. Ella B. Walker, Washington, the wedding to take place in August. Engagement Announced Mr. and Mrs. Theodore P. Brodeur, 2617 E. St. Clair St., announce the engagement of their daughter, Claire, to William C.

WOMEN’S MANNERISMS MAKE THE SILHOUETTE

Erect, perfectly poised is this smart modern woman in her tiered tulle frock; a characteristic attitude of a smart woman of pre-war days, with the graceful silhouette it produced; today a woman can smoke, wear a beautiful gown and look tremendously distinguished.

BY JEAN PATOU For NEA Service PARIS, France, July 25.—1n any discussion of fashions the word silhouette is constantly recurrying. One generally considers that the fact that the style of dressing has changed. There is some reason for this assumption. A gown in disputably has a very great influence on a woman’s outline. Very few persons stop to think, however, that a dress style evolves with women themselves. It changes as their carriage and gestures change. To be specific, I mean their methods of carrying themselves. If you will concentrate on any smart woman you see in a drawing room you will find that there is no anology whatsoever between the way she stood a generation ago. Only fifteen years ago women stood in such a way that the body rested on one leg, while the other was placed at an harmonious angle, lending grace to the silhouette and setting off to advantage the draped effect of the gown.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

The modern woman, in contrast, stands like a man. Os course this does not imply that she thus loses all the prerogatives of her femininity in so doing. This is perhaps a minor anatomical observation, but it is tremendously important as far as the work of a fashion creator is concerned. Most of the gestures of the modern woman are in harmony with the way she stands. And yet fifteen years ago, because women stood differently, they had other distinct gestures. Both the new and the old school may express charm, but they are different. A fashion designer must take all these facts into consideration. He either studies them thoroughly or he feels them instinctively and they unconsciously inspire his creative efforts. A fashion designer must watch women as they live. Years ago. when women rested their weight in repose on one leg, gowns swayed in their silhouettes to emphasize the posture. In postwar days the straight up and down

silhouette was indicative of the military matter-of-factness in the mannerisms of womeen of that era. Now, with women relaxing from the hurried, business-like days just mentioned, their poses show a spirit of leisure and repose that is reflected in the new silhouette. For after all, it is the women who makes the silhouette, rather than the silhouette that makes the woman! Contrary to general opinion, fashions are not the arbitrary dictation of certain artists. They are an expression of the feeling of the times that make them. They reflect the era that produced them. There is one habit of modern women which I do not like at all. This is the silhouette of a woman seated whose dress is too short. When I see a woman sitting like that, although I am quite a partisan of modernism, I find myself regretting the good old days ’"hen women wore dresses that co.ered their legs.
