GARNER’S WIFE WILL SCORN FIGHT ON DOLLY GANN

No Interest in Example Set by Alice B " I ni ,r 'IJ'rrr. WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.—Social precedence of Mrs. Dolly Gann, subjected to some attacks during last ■ Winter’s social season, will not be disputed by the wife of the probable next speaker of the house of representatives. Mrs. Ettie R. Garner, wife of Representative John Garner <Dem., Tex.), who is almost certain to succeed Nicholas Longworth as speaker if the Democrats organize the house, says she has been too busy to worry over the “fine points of official or social precedence.” Uninterested In Quarrel Longworth. the Republican speaker, questioned the right of Mrs. Gann, sister of Vice-President Curtis, to take precedence over his wife, Mrs. Alice Roosevelt LongWorth, at social functions. “I have nevtr been interested in auch matters,” Mrs. Garner said, when questioned about the Long-worth-Gann incident. “I believe a woman’s first duty is to her husband and family, and that Includes upholding the dignity of any position her husband may attain, as well as aiding him in bearing the burdens of his duties,” Mrs. Garner said. Secretary to Husband Mrs. Garner’s words are bom out by her life. She has served as secretary to her husband ever since he was elected to congress in 1902, even though at the same time she was rearing a son. She studied shorthand and typewriting after their marriage in order to aid him in this way. Both Mr. and Mrs. Garner arise early every morning. Mrs. Garner after getting breakfast for her husband and herself, hurries to their office in the Capitol and gets things in readiness for her husband. She usually gets to the office about 7 a. m., in order to look over his mail before he arrives at about 7:30. She intends to continue this practice if he is chosen speaker, she said recently. She Loves Country Life Although now a grandmother, Mrs. Garner is unusually youthful; appearing. She never is still. When I there is no work to be done in her! 'husband’s office she sews or em'broirlers. Reared on a ranch in southern Texas when that part of the’ state was considered rather wild, Mrs. Garner loves the country. When she is at home in Uvalde, Tex., between congressional sessions, she almost invariably is in her garden when the sun rises. In Washington, she frequently sits In the house gallery to listen to debate. particularly when her husband Is taking part in it.

Smart Crepes Are Good for Business Girl Wear

® ■- y

(Dresses from Jay-Tnorpe) These crepe frocks, sketched for The Times and NEA Service by Barbara Schwinn, represent the smartest in the winter mode for officp wear. The Chanel model at the left has interesting features in its skirt flares and removable gilet. Right is a Vionet model in rich green with an unusual front treatment. BY JOAN SAVOY, NEA Service Writer Granted it is smart to work these days, it is smarter still not to look as if you do. You can get such smart, wearable crepe and woolen frocks this winter that you feel like a lovely lady while you do your eight-hour stint. If you are one of those women who must have a bit of white or light blue tone about your face, be sure to get detachable collars and cuffs. There is no denying that this lingerie touch takes years from you by its softening influence. Admirable for office wear is a bright blue wool "crepe from chanel with a gracious line to it and flares worked out in interesting manner. There is a removable gilet of bisque pique which can be made to lead a double life, first as a tailored buttoned-up-to-the-chin vestee; second, as a softly opened collar and vest. There is no denying, however, the elegance of a dress tailored so perfectly that it can scorn the addition of any additional touches. Such a one is a heavy crepe vionnet, in a rich green, made with inverted pleats and an unusual closing with square bone buttons in tan. There is a tan leather belt te match the buttons, not the dress, which is a new style note.

Home-Coming Planned Plans for home-coming of Phi Delta Pi sorority were made at a meeting Thursday night in Wardsworth dormitory. The celebration will be held Thanksgiving week-end at the Indianapolis college of physical education at the Athenaeum.

Checks and Plaids Take Front Rank BY FRANCES PAGET (Copyright. 1930. by Style Sources.) NEW YORK, Nov. 7.—To say that clearly delineated patterns are fashion leaders in a woolen season which is distinctly plain, nas the sound of a paradox. But when it is stated that these patterns are checks, crossbars, and plaids, the paradox resolves into a statement of easily understandable fact. For checks and plaids are distinctly woolen patterns, and are considered as staple as broadcloth, flannel or cheviot. What could be more convincing, then, than presentation of these colorful types of design in a woolen season which is promising to reinstate all the old-fashioned weaves, the serges, reps, twills and gabardines of other days. There are those who advocate effects strictly staple, the true small shepherd’s check, the pin check, the gun-club check, and so on. Others Introduce an almost infinite variety into their interpretations, retaining only the squared shape. Some prefer the most conservative colorings, showing their checks in navy-and-white, brown-and-white and black-and-white. Others have indulged their color fancies to the utmost. Every type of ground has been called into service in the translation of these themes, and one is quite as likely to find a tailored check on a voile ground as on a tweed. Wool marquisette, for instance, affects pastel-tinted gingham plaid. Checks and plaids are the one type of design which remains conservative, despite size or coloring.

Just Every Day Sense

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

FROM my faithful bachelor correspondent at Oklahoma City I have received this polite and caustic note: “I beg your pardon, but did Rudy Vallee ask you for your so freely proffered advice, and what makes you think that he would be happy if he turned himself into a domestic slave?” Let’s take them one at a time, please. Rudy did not ask my advice about marriage, it’s true, any more than I asked him to croon over my radio. We are both in the pleasant position of being able to listen to each other or to leave each other alone. I can tune Rudy out when I get him and he can turn to another page when he sees my name. And that, I think, is a delightful and friendly arrangement. u # # LET it be understood, first of all, that I hold no grudge against Mr. Vallee merely because I have expressed a desire to see him married. Frankly, it’s none of my business. But I am interested in Mr. Vallee’s welfare, as we are interested in the welfare of the famous. I want him to be as happy as he deserves to be. Nor do I agree with my friend, the bachelor, that to have him married would be to transform our Rudy into a domestic slave. I see him, instead, as a veritable king of the home. Virile, haughty, staunch, I feel sure that he would be the sort of husband whose word would be law around the house. I am not one to take it for granted that because a man sings tenor he meekly would submit to the bossing of a woman, or even a wife. Indeed, I respect Mr. Vallee too much to harbor such an idea. After all, it is only bachelors who imagine that all married men are slaves. If they only guessed what tyrannical rights husbands can wield, they might be eager to rush into matrimony. ' No, Rudy Vallee never will be any woman’s slave. Should her power become too strong, he always can start crooning. And lives there a female with soul so dead that she could resist that?
