Badminton w hich has reipned as the spprt deluxe of English society since it was named for the Duke of Beaufort of Badminton in 1873. has been introduced here bv Herbert L Fisher,
athletic instructor at the club. Being known as the fastest racquet came ever played has not deterred local women from engaging in the sport.

Misses Norma Griswold and Matilda Shelby will take any challengers on for a round which will leave the slow-footed, bewildered and breathless. Calls for Stamina Badminton is played with a light racquet, similar to that used in tennis, with a shuttlecock made of sixteen feathers replacing the ball. Mastery of the volley play is the secret of game, which is said to require more stamina and speed than tennis. In New York and Chicago society, many play the game in their homes, their studios and social rooms. A fashion furor is created as they choose costumes, vying in extravagant colors, and designs. No competitive games have been scheduled here, as the game is played exclusively at the athletic club. Louis Schwitzer has become such an enthusiast that he has arranged a court in his yard, where he invites his friends for frenzied play. For women less interested in strenuous activity, volley ball and swimming are attractions at the club. Played Thrice Weekly Three mornings a week they ignore their homes and social duties for volley ball competition. Among the players are Mesdames S W Shipnes. Oscar Jose, H. F King, F S Duesenberg, John Weddell, R. S Williams and Miss Virginia Osborne. Swimming is a favorite activity of Mesdames J W Stickney, R. L. Daggett, Don Hawkins. Warrick Wallace, Charles E. Sommers, J H Brink, B R Turner Jr., and many others Dirk Rapenguth, athletic director and swimming coach, has directed their program. The winter athletic program at the club for men. women and children will be climaxed with a family athletic dinner April 7 in the women's dining room.

The quickest relief for a headache is two tablets of Bayer Aspirin. You’ve heard doctors say this. If you have tried it, you know! The tablet bearing the Bayer cross dissolves very rapidly and brings rapid relief. There is no known medicine that works quite like Bayer Aspirin for the awful head and face pains of neuralgia. There is nothing with quite the same effectiveness in relieving the pains of rheumatism.
And Bayer means Safe!

Let Jane Jordan help you with your troubles. Write your letters to this column and read your answers,in a few days. Deer Jane Jordan—Why is it that when a fellow confides in a girl, he expects her to keep it a deep, dark secret, but when the girl confides in him. he quickly tattles.. That has been my experience. I thought I could trust a fellow with a secret much more readily than a girl. But I was sadly mistaken. Yes, I had a boy friend whom I trusted. I thought that he understood me and that I could voice a few of my opinions to him. But oh, no! Only his opinions and troubles are important. He thought I was in love with him. In fact, he became afraid that I might take him seriously and ran from me as if I were something dangerous. • He is selfcentered and admits it. He thinks no girl is good enough f6r him. He does have an attractive personality, but he overestimates himself to the extent that he snubs almost every one of his kind and thinks that he belongs amidst the most successful of people. For a long time I was blind to his insufferable conceit, but my eyes are open now and they aren’t going to be that blind again. Now I feel revengeful. I am totally indifferent with every fellow I know and meet. I value myself too highly to let any fellow think he has me under some kind of spell, with his masculine wonderfulness. M. Answer —You are mistaken in trying to generalize about a particular experience. Why should you hang this boy’s traits on others, or use him as a standard by which to judge other men? As you describe him, this young man seems to be a strongly egocentric type, highly pleased with himself. To exalt his own ego. he never hestitates to tear another person's down. The embarrassment of another only serves to make him feel more important by contrast. No doubt he tinkers with the truth to maintain his lofty opinion of himself. If he succeeds, he exaggerates his success. If he fails, it was not his fault, but the result of accident. His type is easy to recognize, but it is by no means as general as you think. You reveal a weak spot in your own psychology by showing a lack of resiliency. You have been disappointed and you refuse to get over it. You want to hurt all of them because one of them hurt vou. You’ll knock their ears down by your utter indifference, regardless of whether they deserve such treatment or not. This is an excellent preparation for a life of single bless-
But a more important advantage to the tablets of Bayer manufacture is their absolute safety. Their purity and uniformity are tested thirty-six times! Bayer Aspirin does not depress the heart, does not upset the stomach, does not have any ill effect; you could take it even’ day without harm. Time counts when you're in pain—and safety is always important. Stick to genuine Bayer Aspirin!
BY PRUNELLA WOOD Times Special Writer BRIDES, no matter how conventionally garbed, find ways of putting current fashion trends and unique accents into their ceremonial costumes. This spring registers a great interest in pale maize tints for the bride and all her ladies-in-waiting. an innovation which detracts nothing from the classic lines of a long wedding robe of satin or lace. Many girls, in fact, welcome the chance to get away from an allwhite ensemble on a day when pre-nuptial entertainments have sapped freshness from the complexion. The bride's flowers offer another way of introducing originality into her costume. At the International Beauty Shop Owner's convention last week at the Hotel Pennsylvania. New York, a bride in a white Victorian lace gown showed an unusual flower marker for her prayer book, in lieu of a bouquet. Three white satin steamers, strewn with gardenias and their glossy leaves, were passed through the book; on the top of the book rested a cluster of orchids, which later became the corsage for the bride's travelling costume. In the same procession with this bride were attendants in maize lace gowns who carried diminutive finger-tip muffs of velvet petals on which orchids were pinned. Long streamers decorated with small, varicolored blossoms depended from the muffs.
Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN
edness, for no man loves a woman who deflates his ego. You can not raise your value one whit merely by decrying the value of somebody else, yet this is what you are trying to do. The happiest men in the world are those whose wives are under the very spell of the wonderful masculinity which you repudiate. Therefore, do watch your step. Don't let one unhappy experience poison your whole outlook and unfit you for love when it comes. tt tt tt Dear Jane Jordan—l am a boy of 19 and I have been going with a girl of 15. Her house is a regular hangout for all the boys of Broad Ripple. I care for her, but she has a bad habit of flopping on the first fellow’s lap who enters the house. That is the reason I don't love her. She smokes and drinks, but I don’t mind that, for most of the Broad Ripple boys like to see girls smoke and drink. I'd like for you to advise me how I could keep her from flopping on other ' fellows’ laps. I have told her many times that I didn't like it, but it just goes in one ear and out of the other. Do you think I should drop her, which would be easy to do, and find a girl who is much nicer? STUPID BUD. Answer —I think any young lady who is easy to drop should be dropped. It is very bad taste on her part to sit in the laps of her callers. She will have to learn that men value the woman who reserves her intimate gestures for them alone, and then only in private. The great difference between Jaer attitude toward her sweetheart in private and the front she puts up in public constitutes one of her chief charms for him. There is nothing flattering in being caressed by a girl who caresses everybody else with equal enthusiasm. It shocks me that a girl of 15 should be permitted to drink. This probably accounts for the dulling of her perceptions and the general lowering of her taste. Auxiliary to Meet Ladies auxiliary to the United Commercial Travelers will meet at 7:30 Saturday at the Woman’s Department Club.

You’ll Know Your Honey After You Talk to City Market Expert on Bees C. C. Collins Tells Housewife Facts She Never Imagined About the Ideal Spread for Hot Biscuits. BY HELEN LINDSAY CRUISING about through the City Market, the Indianapolis epicure sooner or later meets C. C Collins, and gams an intimate knowledge of bee habits, while purchasing a jar of honey. Mr Collins, as a raconteur of ’bee stories,” rivals’ the immortal Maeterlinck. Carefully labeled and attractively displayed on the shelves and in the showcases about him are specimens of
honeyfrom all parts of the country. If you have an idea that honey is merely a delicious accompaniment to "hot biscuits.” get acquainted with this bee expert. From him you will learn that there are almost as many different kinds of honey as there are flowers with nectar. He can tell you of honey made from locust trees, which retains such a strong perfume of the locust blossoms that it must be mixed with a milder variety of honey before it is palatable. His sales talk is interspersed with entertaining natural history anecdotes. He tells of greedy bees which lose their lives when they burden themselves too heavily with pollen, and attempt to return to their hives: of detective methods used by bee keepers in finding thieving colonies which rob from weaker hives: and of the shipping system of the bee industry, in which a valuable queen is transported in a tiny wire cage from one apiary to another
White clover honey is the favorite blend in Indianapolis according to Mr. Collins. tt tt B Hat Shop Caters to Juniors T'HE Mad-Cap Hat shop on the fourth floor of the William H Block company caters to the junior miss, in ' softies” of various kinds.
