Children Come First in Considering Taking Leave of Unfaithful Husband BY MARTHA LEE WHEN a woman finds her husband unfaithful, to her, and, to top it all off, he admits that unfaithfulness, just exactly what is her next move? Under ordinary circumstances any woman would probably think immediately of leaving her husband. On second thought, she would probably reconsider her decision and on third thought decide to give him another chance.
But when there are others to think of, little children who will be visibly, spiritually and mentally affected by the breaking up of the home, the line of reasoning is entirely different. In the first case, the motive is purely selfish. The wife would leave because her pride was injured, her vanity and self-esteem sadly pricked or her faith and love for her husband shattered. In the second case she would think, not of herself, but of the children that were her’s and this man who had turned out to be unfaithful. And that, my dears, alters the case considerably—and the decision more so. I have had a letter from a poor wife who, after four years, has found her husband unfaithful to her and has heard him admit it. She is baffled; can’t seem to figure out just where the fault of her failure, to hold her husband lies. She says: Dear Miss Lee: I have been married four years and my husband and X have had an unusually smooth married life, x have everything to make me happy and have been completely so until a few weeks wa3 pressing my husband’s suit and I found an unmailed letter in his vest pocket to another woman. I read It and found that he has been unfaithful to me. In the letter he told his affinity not to worry, that I showed no signs of suspicion, of doubting that he was wholly true to me. He told her that it was she he loved and that some day he would see to it that he would be free to have only her, as he did not intend to live wtih me much longer. I asked him about it and he told me to keep still and let well enough alone or I would be sorry. We have a little girl two and a half years old and he hasn’t spoken a kind word to the child since I asked him about the letter. I have been a good, true wife and have never doubted his love for me. Should X leave him and take our baby or try to stick it out? DOLORES. There are so many things for you both to consider. In the first place talk with him frankly about the other girl. Find out if, in a showdown, when he realized that it meant to give you up or cease going to her, just what move he would make. Nothing will ever be accomplished by remaining silent on a subject that so vitally affects, not only your own life, but the life of your child. If you leave, would you have means to support and educate the /baby? She is the one to consider first and foremost in whatever you do. You must, before you decide anything, consider every angle of the changes that such a move will be to you and the child.

YOUR-CHILD Regularity as Rule of Life
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON The first habit of importance in a baby’s life is regularity. Regularity of sleeping, eating and elimination. Avery young baby should sleep from eighteen U twenty-two hours out of every twenty-four. During the second and third months he should sleep from eighteen to twenty hours. When he is 6 months old he should sleep twelve hours at night without interruption except for one evening feeding at 10 o’clock. Even this may not be necessary. . He should sleep two hours in the morning and two hours in flap afternoon, but not after 3 o’clock. He should be in bed at 6 p. m. and not disturbed after that except for the 10 o’clock feeding. Keep Night Schedule As he grows older the daytime naps may be gradually shortened but the night periods should not be changed. After he is a year old a nap in the afternoon will be enough daytime sleep, unless he is sick. Even if he does not sleep, he should be put to bed in a shaded, quiet room, and it must be understood that he is to stay there until given permission to. get up. This should be kept up for several years. Six o’clock should be the bed time for all children under 4. After that it* may be an hour later, but until he is 9 years old he should be in bed by 8 o’clock. Boys and girls under 15 should be in bed by 9 o’clock every night. Babies never should be taken to movies. Not only because they are exposed to germs of contagious disease, but simply because they should be at home and in bed, quietly and peacefully asleep. Parents with no one £b leave the baby with safety

should take turns going or stay away altogether. Never give a baby any sort of medicine to induce sleep. Never waken a baby to show him to company. Never take a baby visiting to this, that, and the other house and put him down to sleep anywhere that is convenient. Plenty of Fresh Air Don’t play with him or excite him just before bedtime. See that he has fresh air when he is asleep. In pleasant weather he may take his daytime naps outdoors in a protectted place. See that the sun never shines in his eyes, asleep or awake. Accustom *him to sleep through ordinary household noises and then he will not be unduly disturbed. Don’t awaken a child in the morning until he awakens naturally.

By HENRI BENDEL For NEA Service NEW YORK, July 28.—Long before the first leaves begin to fall, women’s heads are occupied with what they will put on them for autumn millinery. Fail hats are decidedly new. They, turn their backs on the summer’s mode. For by their backline can you tell a fall hat when you see it this season. Just, as the smartest gowns are concentrating on individuality in the back treatment, hats follow suit. I might say, too, that the longer, sweeping peacock backline of gowns has gone to Milady's head! For all the best hats that have brims, let them slant decidedly downward in the back. New Trimmings Fronts may be more or less the same, as much brim as a woman’s face ca nstand nicely. Sides are apt to flare, as the panier gown flares. Trimmings bring into play gadgets that formerly were used exclusively on frocks, such as buttons, tassels, and kerchief effects. The übiquitous felt seems to be with us again. But in such new, soft guise that it seems almost a silken thing. The summer’s’vogue for straw put felts on their mettle. Xhe ballibuntl and other favorite straws accustomed women to featherweight hats. The new felts are light in weight and exceedingly beautiful in fabric. Fall colors are apt to have either tannish or blue hues in them. Reds border on shades that

blend nicely with browns. Grays have that becoming blue tone that is most enhancing to blondes. One hat I have imposed from Patou is a stunning mushroon “button hat,” in a tomato red felt. Its brim is made into two pieces, one buttoning over the other. The little self-banding across the left side buttons in two places with matching shiny buttons. This hat flares on both sides but is even longer in the back. Because of the softness of the material, it will not interfere with a coat collar. v Black-White Mode Reboux does a stunning thing in black and white, making a hat with the front brim and half the front crown of gleaming white velour and the back and somewhat full upper crown of black velour. But the white and black npple slightly where the edges join, giving a soft line indeed. One small bow of black sits atop the white half of the crown for trimming. A third import I made this season is a stunning combination of color an da new type of trimming, suggested by the kerchief bow that proved so becoming to women’s shoulders and hips this summer. This hat is of the very finest gray felt, with inserts of blu efelt that tie on one side, with all the ends hanging to form an unusual type of trimming. All of. these hats show somewhat larger crowns this season, as well as

Home Still of Interest to Women “All this sensational talk that the women of America have lost interest in the home, that American family life has degenerated, is, to put it plainly, bunk, and we have proved that it is bunk,” said Randolph Branner, merchandising manager of the National Home Furnishing Campaign, before furniture manufacturers ol Indiana at the Indianapolis Athletic Club today on the invitation of the Indianapolis Furniture Manufacturers Association. The meeting was called to present plans of a national campaign to the men who make furniture in Indiana. “In order to find out the facts about the furniture industry and about the people who buy furniture in this country, we made a national survey in which we talked with and questioned furniture dealers and manufacturers but women of every class all over the United States,” Branner said. “T v e most striking fact brought out, when the answers were analyzed, was that the primary interest of 80 per cent of the women questioned was in their homes, in the equipment of those homes and in proper surroundings for their children. “Another striking fact was that the great majority of women—7s per cent of those called on—have inherent good taste in home furnishings. This was brought out not by the answers of the women themselves to a question as to whether they have good taste —that would have been absurd—but by the judgment of our investigators. A similar point was in regard to women’s color sense- Our investigators reported that of the women called on so far as could be determined by the surroundings in the home, the decorations and so on, 39 per cent have excellent sense of color, 27 per cent have only a fair color sense and 24 per cent have poor color sense. “Women’s preference in buying home furnishings, their replies showed, is actually based on their appreciation of beauty and harmony rather than on price alone. That seems to be one of the errors of the retail furniture business. In our investigation we analyzed the advertising of retail dealers in thirty-two cities of varying size all over the United’ States, and we found that 85 per cent of the advertising of those dealers was based on price appeal rather than quality. “We inquired what it is that women like to know about furniture. We found 61 per cent interested in ideas for the home, 16 per cent interested in woods used, 14 per cent interested in style or appearance of the furniture, 3 per cent interested in its construction and 6 per cent not interested at all. More or less interest in period design xvas expressed by 68 per cent, although in only 7 per cent was this interest pronounced, and 51 per cent were more or less interested in exclusive design, but with only 3 per cent showing a pronounced interest.” The national home merchandising campaign, which Mr. Branner explained in his speech, is a fouryear advertising and merchandising program to be conducted by the entire industry, but under the specific sponsorship of the National Retail Furniture Association. The Millis Advertising Company of Indianapolis is advertising counsel for the association.
