BY JOAN SAVOY NEA Service Writer THERE is a touch of magic in some of the new spring clothes. Not the least trick that these newcomers play is that of looking like one thing and being another. You probably have noticed the

MANNtRWA/OALS JokdAn /P,

IF you're up against it, write to Jane Jordan, who will throw some light on your problem and tell you the best way to handle it. Dear Jane Jordan—l have been going with a fellow for almost four months and he is Just a puzzle to me. I am 20 years old and he is 30. He holds a very good position and is everything that I admire in a man. I was married when very young and have had my divorce a long time. I didn’t expect ever to see him again, but he came back the next evening and acted Just the same as he had before. Sometimes he is just as sweet as he can be, bringing me candy and gifts. Then again he is quite different. He is quiet and seems to be thinking about something. Ido not know how to take him. I see him three evenings a week and would love to be with him every evening, but he says that we would tire of each other. Do you think that if a fellow likes a girl very much he would tire of her company? He always is bringing up the subject of marriage and says he guesses he never will marry. When we pass a prettv little home, he asks how X would like to have a place like it and be his. I never answer his questions when he talks like this, because I do not want him to think that I am easy to get. while all the time I just am dying to say yes. He often has made the remark that he was always afraid to get married as it would turn out in a divorce, and oftentimes he will remark about my former marriage. Do you think if he reallv cared fr me that he would treat me as he does! What would you advise? I'd give almost anything to have him. GRACE. Dear Grace—l think you're doing very well with the young man, and I have nothing to suggest, except that you guard against showing your eagerness. Let him feel that you are just as doubtful about marriage as he is. If any one has to be persuaded that marriage is a desirable state, let that person be you and not him. I do not think his behavior is peculiar at all, but only the normal, natural attitude of a young man trying very hard not to fall lewpomt ift love and incur T N f i all the heavy respo n s ibilities of f or ]\Jan the married state. Nearly all -'zn are afraid of marriage. I have heard the boldest confess to a case of the jitters when their wedding day dawned and they realized there was no turning back. The greater the love, the greater the jitters. Marriage isn’t the Ultima Thule to men that it is to women. If you marry, you have gained a protector. If he married, he incurs a responsibility. Why shouldn't it give him pause and cause him to think long and hard. Nevertheless, men marry because they fall under the illusion that they have found one woman they can't live without. Your cue is to make him dependent upon you for

as many things as you can. If you’re always amiable and always interested in him, the chances are that

Make Him Dependent on You

he will want to sew such a happy companionship up for himself. Any man will tire of any girl if he sees her constantly and continually without any change. His refusal to see you every night is no sign of a lack of interest in you. It merely shows that he is a more mature person than you are, and that he wishes to prevent his feeling for you from reaching the saturation point, j He knows Trom experience that you can become unconscious of the

intriguing way street dresses look like coats. And vice versa. But have you seen the new little sports outfits that look exactly like suits, when they really are two-piece dresses? One of the smartest of the former that I have run across is a neat pin-checked green, brown

charms of the most beautiful view in the world if you live where you can see it every day of your life You still are clinging to that mistaken slogan of youth, “All for love and the world well lost.” Whatever you do, don’t shorter up on his freedom. Lean on him admire him, worship if you wish but don’t try to make him lose his identity in you. It isn’t possible for the male creature. tt tt tt Dear Jane Jordan —I have a message for Mescal. Please don’t stop your education. Ten years ago I stopped nigh school to go to work first in a dime store and then in a grocery store. I stopped because I couldn’t have the clothes to look like the other girls and was too proud to go on the little I had. I hope you won’t make this mistake. Ten years from now, you will look back and be so sorry for the education you have missed. Get a good foundation, the foundation your father is giving you by insisting on your finishing high school. I know you won’t ever be sorry. Try to curb the impatience, if you can. Try to realize that the things you learn the last year of high school are too important to pass up. Don't think this is a crabby old maid speaking. X worked my way • through business college and am supporting a 1-year-old son. at 25, so I know whereof I speak. It is anything but easy. TOMMY.

(From the Lucinda Shop, New York) and white featherweight tweed coat dress. It is just the right weight for the first warm days. And nothing could look smarter for street wear. Made with a double capelet effect and trim, sleek body lines, it fastens with self-buttons and uses them on the sleeves too. There is a line of white pique aroui'd the inside of the collar line, and inside cuffs are made of the pique, fastening with cuff buttons, in oldfashioned manner. It has a certain “just right” young look about it that is tremendously pleasing. tt a u TWO kinds of twill, silk twill and wool, combine in the jaunty sports dress. The upper is made of a heavy white silk twill, that tailors to perfection. It is a very abbreviated little upper, doublebreasted, with roll notched collar and deep cuffs. To be sure, it could be worn as a jacket, with a little blouse under it, but it is essentially the top of the sports frock and perfect for it. The skirt is of the same type of twill, only in wool. It is ravishingly blue. Made with one flaring godet that comes clear to the placquet line, it has anew swing to it that is neat and comfortable. There is a stitched belt of the skirt’s wool to finish it.

What's in Fashion?

Suits Have Individual Details Directed By AMOS PARRISH

'. * J

NEW YORK, April B—“ The things you can do with a tailored suit!” You're hearing a lot of such remarks these days about this year’s crop of clean-cut, ready-for-action suits. And hundreds of women are O. K.-ing that same idea. “Tailored suit,” by the way, can mean a great many things this year. Not just the old idea of a perfectly plain suit with narrow 7 , notched lapels, single or doublebreasted. This season you can follow the general tailored pattern, but be yourself in a dozen different w r ays. Your jacket, for instance, will be broad-shouldered, fitted at the waist and hip length. But its re vers may be moderately wide, or very wide. Or, maybe you’ll decide against revers altogether and have a collarless jacket with a scarf at the neck. Then buttons give you great leeway. You can have four, six or eight . . . strung in a row down one side, or marching doublebreasted up the front. And we’ve even seen suits with a triple row of buttons! If you want to be military somewhere in your wardrobe, a soldierly suit’s just about the best thing you could hit on. With epaulets, metal buttons, and uniform pockets set foursquare on the front. We’re seeing suits with dark skirts and lighter jackets. Very slick on slim figures of average or above-average height. And an extra skirt that matches the jacket makes another new costume. It’s notions such as that —changing a skirt . . . wearing blouses cf different types . . . using different colored accessories . . . which make a suit count for three or four outfits. (Copyright. 1932. bv Amos Parrish) Next—Practical new evening dresses adapt themselves to many events. Club to Have Breakfast and Treasure Hunt Miss Ruth Hoover, chairman of the hospitality committee of the Business and Professional Women’s Club, announced plans for a breakfast and treasure hunt Sunday morning, May 1, at a meeting of the organization Thursday night at the Woman’s Department Club house. The breakfast, which will follow the hunt,'Will be held at Whispering Winds. Miss Hoover’s committee includes: Mrs. Marie L. Huffman, Mrs. Anna B. Shearer. Misses Wilmeth A. Benson, Esther L. Bowman. Marjorie E. Ford. Fae Harris. Thelma Hawthorn, Ruth E. Leedy, Rose Marie Lenahan, Martha Pommering. Mabel E. Rose, Dorothy Sylvester and Nancy Volk.

Cate, Isn’t It? and Only—dp —and there are many, many more just as cute. No wonder our department is the rendezvous of the smart business girls on Saturday. You’ll find crochets, rough straws and needlepoints, tomorrow at $1.85 . . . and in every new spring shade.
