BEST HUSBAND IS THE ONE WHO ALWAYS IS POLITE

Wife Weary of ‘Boor in Her Home BY MARTHA LEF. A group of women were talking over their luncheon coffee Several of them were married. Several of them were single. They were exchanging ideas about love and matrimony and what husbands should be to make their wives happy. One woman, oldest and wisest of the group, was talking. Her work had brought her in contact with a great number of people and in close contact with rather intimate details of their lives. "The man who makes the best husband is the one who always will be polite. One of the most glaring faults I have to find with men is the fact that they are apt to lose their manners after they have been married for a year or so. And that applies to women, too. . "There are certain little courtesies that are overlooked so easily when a husband and wife become careless in their attitude toward each other. And those things hurt. Little Things Cause Strife "If you will notice carefully, it is usually the little things that cause big wars. It is the little hurts, piled over a period of years, that finally bring couples to the divorce court.” Now’ when you hear women saving that their husbands are so different since they have married than they were when they were single, you usually will find they are referring to some apparently trifling incident that has grown to be almost an obsession. A woman who has found her husband lacking in the common courtesies that men usually show to women is being driven from him because of that. She has written her woes in the following letter: Dear Miss Lee—l have been married for five rears and am beginning to And married life unbearable. My husband is a good man. He does not leave me alone. He is not interested in other women. He is a good provider. But he is a frightful boor. Before we were married. I had no reason to complain about his manners. He always was courteous and considerate. But in the last few years he has become so careless that he has become unbearable to me. He never thinks, for instance, of allowing me to precede him out of a door, unless, of course, I am there first to open it. He never helps me into a car or across a street. If he comes home tired in the evening, and is unshaven and a trifle grimy with the day's work, he does not consider It necessary to shave and wash before he sits down opposite me at the dinner table. His table manners have become careless. In fact, his whole attitude Is one of "If you don't like It. lump It.” Now. Miss Lee. I suppose this will seem like nothing at all beside some of the troubles people write In to you. but It Is real to me. I am not of a particularly sensitive nature, but I do like to see husbands and wives treat each other at least with the courtesies they would other human beings and it surely is not very appetising to see a pair of dirty hands reaching for a slice of bread. It Is not particularly flattering to have your husband walk down the street with utter disconcern as to whether you get across the street or not. I have hinted In a Joking way about these things. It seemed too trivial to him even to pay any attention to. But Just the same I am serious about It. It has become an obsession with me. What can I do? MRS. BOOR. It probably wouldn’t have much effect to give him some of his own medicine, because he probably would not notice it. but you might try that. He really seems like a fine husband outside of his habit of being blissfully ignorant that there is such a thing as a code of manners to use around his own family. You might also tell him about Mrs. Brown, whose husband is so careless she can no longer bear the sight of him. You might relate incidents of Mr. Brown's careless attitude that are just the things.your husband did that evening that particularly annoyed you. Or again you might learn to tolerate his idiosycrasies. And you always might be sure you are being a shining example for him to follow.

We find them with incrustations, white and colored scarfs and revers, amusing pocket and cuff ideas—expressed in rich reds, soft browns, bright and dull blues —and each sufficiently lovely to make its fair owner pray for rain that she may have a chance to wear it. n u u Once I saw a stately lily frozen to silver in the cold moonlight.

Ycur Child __ Pre-School Years Are Time to Shape Course of Children

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON During the formative pre-school age, a mother’s relation to her child is unique. She must be his world. An older child develops and learns by his contacts with older people. His experiences are had is school, or with companions of his own age out of school. The mother of the older child still constitutes a certain fraction of his world, but his association with her is intermittent. During these periods she can talk to him, explain things to him and guide him, but she knows that he is having most of his experiences away from her direct influence. Seldom Away from Mother With a little child it is different. There are times during the day when he is away from her, very likely, but it is only a small part of the time comparatively. The most of the time he is with her. During his first four or five years, his mother is concerned directly in practically all of his experiences. I wonder how many mothers realize that during these years when her child is closest to her, nearly all his character traits are formed and set. During these intimate little hours of the day when he plays near her, seemingly unconscious at times of her very presence, does she sense the fact that she herself is the mdSt potent factor that will ever influence his existence. Here Is Her Chance This is her opportunity—her golden hour. If she has time to give it any attention at all—and I believe that if she realized how important it is, she would manage to spare time—she can do everything in the world toward planting good impulses and curbing undesirable ones. Not by petting! Not by scolding! No. The first leads to mother fixation. Result: A spoiled selfish baby! The second is even worse: It will make him unhappy and cause inferiority complex. Then what? Well, for one thing

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Men Regard Marriage as a Surrender By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON in Baltimore anew men’s club has been formed. It is a Bachelors’ club. The members must pledge themselves to remain unmarried. They explain that they will wage no war on matrimony, but act only in self-defense. Such clubs have been organized for many years. Most of their alumni long have since become husbands. Belonging to a bachelors’ club means nothing. But it does mean somewhat that men band themselves together to resist marriage. Girls never do that. This different attitude of the two sexes toward marriage is an interesting thing to contemplate. Women consider getting married as an achievement. This is why we have these long pre-nuptial festivities, these agonies of preparation. It’s a hangover from those days when a woman went into retirement as soon as the vows were spoken. She took one last fling and was done for. But she met her destiny with a high head, proud that she had landed a husband. Marriage to men, on the contrary, always has been a kind of reluctant surrender. They trot meekly to their chains, wearing the hangdog loog of the conquered. And married worsen, no matter how broad-minded, always feel a sort of pity for those who are unmarried. This is our heritage from the centuries. A silly mental attitude, if you will, but one that we no more can help than we can help being women. While men, with their age-old arrogance, bred in them through ages of dominance, still consider that when they marry they have been faithless to their kind and have in some mysterious way been taken in. Though they may be desperately in love, they feel aggrieved and a little shamed. For men put a high valuation upon themselves, whereas we have grown accustomed to holding ourselves cheap. In spite of their modern independence, women still are pathetic. They have fought gallantly for every inch of their progress. There is no saga of ancient heroes that is more inspiring than the tale of their struggles, though you will find an account of it in no history.

it is an excellent time to teach him generosity. She can teach him to give things that he wants very much to her sometimes. That is an excellent way to begin. His lessons in kindness and unselfishness must be practiced on her. Teach Him Service She can encourage him to help her in little duties in every way she can. Service! He should be taught to be polite to her and to control his temper with her. She also can teach him not to be jealous, by letting him see her make a fuss over another child occasionally. She can teach him truth above all, by getting him into the habit of coming to her with everything. During these years she must establish his confidence in her—then or never. And fi ar must have no part, either then or ever. A person who inspires nothing but fear in a child Joses all influence whatever.

Next Season’s Modes Will Lack Startling New Features of Spring

Atom

Left to right: A black flat crepe frock with lace touches at neck and cuffs exemplifies Jean Patou’s conception of the long-limbed silhouette. Charmingly feminine and enhancing is a pale pink mousseline de sole evening gown whose cut gives a wide, soft girdle effect. By intricate cut, a Patou figured chiffon compliments the slender figure and yet gives the effect of great fullness.

BY JEAN PATOU Written for NEA Service PARIS, Aug. 7.—The whole of the world whose interest lies in fashions is agog with excitement once more with regard to the fashions that will be offered for next fall by the couturiers. I know for certain that next season’s modes will not present such startling new features as was the case at the time of the spring showings. There are several reasons for this assertion of mine and I will endeavor to explain the why and wherefore of it. There • will be no noticeable changes in styles, because the new points of the summer season were so extraordinary and unexpected, besides being widely commented upon, that the ensuing season nec-

essarily must rest upon the laurels of the preceding one. Never, in the annals of Parisian ‘haute couture,’ have there been two successive seasons of widely divergent styles. It is only natural that after every radical movement there should come a period of calm and it is then, in the world of fashion, that both creators and the women who wear their creations are able to enjoy such changes as have been wrought. When any one fashion has lasted two seasons, everyone is ready for something new and different. Take for instance the natural waisted effect, that totally new silhouette that took the fashion world by storm. Women only just have started wearing these new dresses and enjoying them; therefore no drastic changes in this direction can be expected for the coming winter. The use of heavier and altogether different fabrics evidently will lend a different look to styles in general. Certain qualities of thickness and rigidity, altogether absent from the flimsy summer materials, have to be

taken into account, so a couturier always has to concentrate his efforts on a general softening of the outline for his winter models. Os all winter materials, velvets certainly will be preferred. I foresee a very successful era for both plain velvets and printed pannes. Whether they will replace satins and other stiffer fabrics in women’s fancy, I can not tell. The waistline seems to be the point on which all attention is now focused. So far as I am concerned. there will be no marked changes. It is several seasons now since I have shown the normal waistline which, by the way, has been adopted unanimously by all my clients. Exaggeratedly high waists have been attempted this summer, but this is ’of no consequence. I always have advocated the return to a more normal waistline than one situated somewhere between the hips and knees, but I never have gone to any extreme. Even where fashions are concerned, discretion always Is appreciated and exaggerations naturally should be barred.
