Mrs: Matthews Is Guided by Instinct in Designing Her Theatrical Costumes Execution Proves Historically Accurate Without Reference to Textbooks Which Most Artists Require. Thl It the fourth *>f > irl, the iltrin of Indlan.poli* women who hare achieved fame b their own initiative and ambition. aaaa a . a BY BEATRICE BI’RGAN Timet Woman'. Paje Editor That an artist's instinctive execution may be historically accurate is proved m the costume designing of Mrs Paul Matthews, who. like her husband, has a hobby outside her homemaking duties. When Mrs. Matthews rushes home with an armful of packages, eyes starry and cheeks flushed. Mr. Matthews, musician and financial secretary of the American Legion, knows she has an idea. “I just can't wait until tomorrow,” he Says for her, and becomes quite as excited as she. Because Mrs. Matthews has found that her interpretations of costume

design for the Civic theater generally have coincided with ideas of executions of years ago, she follow's her instinctive feel. That is the theory on w’hich she works. It spoils the fun for her if she has to follow definitely the mode of accepted costumes. In planning wardrobes for the theater, she first reads the play, to detect the character and mood of the cast. After she gets an impression of the character, she confers with the director, to compare their interpretations. With her findings and an idea of the stage setting in mind, she begins actual execution of the costumes. “I become confused when I read what I should do,” explained Mrs. Matthews. “I like to work out my own ideas and then refer to books to check my judgment.” She oftpn investigates the types of costumes used in previous presentations of a particular play, but she never copies anything as she definitely sees it.

Miss Burgan

"It's not costuming when one has to follow exactly another’s conception,” she maintains. This instinctive flair was shown in her first attempts at serious designing. which came about because of the confidence and persistence of an artist friend, Sheila Ellsworth Burlinghame of St. Louis.

Starts on Career Miss Burlinghame, now' a fresco artist and sculptoress, had executed some batiks and wanted Mrs. Matthews to design from them tea gowns for a society woman. "Oh, I couldn't possibly,” gasped the young designer. "I’ve never attempted anything so big.” Miss Burlinghame understood her youthful reluctance, but she was determined. She invited Mrs. Matthews to tea one day. Another guest was there. The woman, Mrs Matthews soon was to learn, was the one w'ho wanted the gowns. “It was something I couldn’t escape. I couldn't be rude and refuse, so I made several for her and hen daughter,” Mrs. Matthews recalled. She blended the colors of the batiks with the lines suitable for the personality of the wearer. Admired by Artist The gowns later w r ere exhibited in Kansas City. An artist admiring them one day asked her if she knew' what period they represented. "Well, no,” she confessed confusedly. “I just followed the feel of how the material should be designed.” •‘They’re Renaissance.” he answered. That was proof enough of the accuracy of her instinct, for the patterns of Miss Burlinghame’s batiks were Renaissance. For two years Mrs. Matthews has been in charge of costumes for the Children’s theater and the Actors and Workers' Guild of the Civic theater. “It's been forever that I’ve been designing for my family and friends,” she explained. “At 7 I was dressing dolls for party prizes and at 11 I made my first dress.” She recalls worrying her family to submission in the matter of designing their dresses. At 17 she bought S6O worth of material to make herself an ensemble. Success With Costume Her mother was aghast at her confidence, but rather than shatter it, she merely smiled hopefully. “The dress turned out successfully, but Mother later confessed that the experience added at least a dozen gray hairs to her head,’’ Mrs. Matthews reminisced. Mr. Matthews admires his wife's gift of line and color executions in costumes, and she is proud of his tone and rhythm interpretations on piano and organ. While he plays the organ at Tabernacle Presbyterian church as a hobby, she is making articulate her talent. “I encourage his musical expression and he sympathizes with my artistic inclination." pointed out Mrs. Matthews. “We have fun debating whose talent 5-year-old Paul Jr. will inherit.” Enjoys Her Work “I like best the planning, buying, cutting and fitting.” explained Mrs. Matthews, who is young, vivid and enthusiastic. “I'd be pleased never to see a needle and thread. I use them only to get results. When the dress is pinned up, all the thrill of creation is gone.” “People misrepresent themselves so.” she lamented. “They wear dresses that betray their real personalities. “Whether you approve yourself or not. it's Mrs. Matthews' idea that you express your own individuality. “So many people imitate someone else—inside and outside. All you have is an unconvincing copy,” she pointed out. The coloring and temperament of a person usually harmonize, she has found. If the temperament is incongruous to the coloring, it's probably because the natural tendency has been aborted by affectation of another’s personality or frustrated by environment, according to Mrs.; Matthews. Disturbed by Discords It is usual. Mrs. Matthews has found, that a person with black hair and contrasting bright eyes is more abrupt, more metallic in character and chooses combinations of primary colors that don't blend. If a person dresses contrary to her real self. Mrs. Matthews imme- ’ diately is conscious of it. It disturbs her quite as much as a discordant note upsets a musician. “I think the wrong effect registers on most people without the same sense that I have.” Mrs. Matthews explained. “They experience an unexplainable repulsion, j for which they don't attempt to account. It’s really due to an artistic reaction to an inappropriate costume.” She has difficulty often when she designs clothes for other people, for they frequently can t agree on the complete idea. “Many times their original ideas are good, and then they add something that detracts from the becom- j ing effect.” she said. "I to interpret the personality of my subject and forget myself. I attempt to draw out their individual i

ideas and sanction the best when I begin the actual designing,” she explained. Sometimes she cuts at random. Sometimes she cuts an intricate pattern in muslin first. She may be influenced by a current mode, but she changes it to comply with her own ideas and the future wearer’s figure and personality. The quality of a color must be right. She senses that every one can wear any color if the quality of the shade is right. A yellow red is better for a light brunet than a blue red. she explains, while a dark brunet is cheapened by a light, airy color. She needs a forceful color to emphasize her own richness. When Mrs. Matthews lived in St. Louis, she designed complete ward - robes and trousseaux for friends. Since her marriage and residence here, her work hasn’t been quite as extensive. She keeps busy, however, for when she isn't in the midst of an assignment from the theater, she is planning her ow'n clothes or those of a friend.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Brldrs, or brides-to-bo, ha\-e a lot of ! questions which they would like to have answered. They ran depend upon Jane Jordan for an honest reply. Write that letter now! Dear Jane Jordan We are a ! boy of 21 and a girl of 19. We are j debating whether to get married Jan. 1 or to wait for a year. We have nothing to start on but the boy’s job, w'hich he knows to be dependable. I think we ought to w'ait until we have some money saved for a foundation. Then we | should be able to meet reverse circumstances, which are bound i to arise. The boy believes that his job is sufficient for the present, and that w r e should begin together. YOUNG COUPLE OF TODAY Answer—You are a very w’ise young lady, unusually far-sighted for your age. It is true that the

financial conditions under w'hich a marriage is contracted are of vital importance to its future. When a married pair has been accustomed to better circumstances than they can afford by themselves, they are apt to chafe under the necessity for constant economy. I rarely have seen love and bliss survive penury.

s|*, Ibkr,

Jane Jordan

A modest start on an ascending scale is favorable to success. ! As long as the new household is j moving steadily toward the station i to which the partners were accus--1 tomed. satisfaction is fairly certain. ! Exceptional couples have started ’on a shoestring and progressed steadily together. You know' your ! own capacity better than I do and I believe you can be trusted to make your own decision. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—l am a ! widow with a little girl 13 years old. I am going with a man several years older than myself who appears to be very much in love with me. He has two married children. The daughter thinks it is all right, for him to keep company, but the son doesn’t approve, because he thinks I am too young, j He discourages his father in every | w'ay. Do you think it wise for me j to continue going w'ith him? I like him very much. E. M. J. Answ'er—The chances are that the son always has been more or less jealous of his father. When the son w’as a little boy he may have looked upon the father as a rival for the affections of the mother. This, of course, is a Freudian viewpoint and I have no w r ay of vouching for it without knowing the son. Whichever way it is, I should say it most decidedly is none of the son’s business what his father does.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

If the two of you enrich each other's lives, I should disregard the son’s disapproval. U tt u Dear Jane Jordan—The other night I had a date with a boy whom I shall call Red. He brought me home after I had been visiting in another city, so I had my suitcase along. There was another couple present and they dared me to put on my pajamas, which I did. Red did not act like most boys would have in that case, but treated me as if he thought something might happen to me, and he w'anted to protect me. Every time he kissed me I w r as shaken to the bone, and I know' it affected him, too, but he never asked for another date. I always have been rather daring around him. Do you suppose he thinks me fast? Is it stubbornness that makes him so cool? Please tell me w'hat do you think of me and my actions, and if you think this is W'hy I don’t get Red. ROSALIND Answ'er—He is more likely to be timid than shocked or stubborn. It might pay you to tone down your conduct to a point where he lyould feel more at ease. Other boys probably know' more about his reactions than I do. Therefore, I am asking them to answer your letter for me. How does Rosalind’s behavior strike our young men readers? nun Dear Jane Jordan—l am a woman of 30, with one child. My husband turned to another woman who is not what we call good. My mistake was in letting my housework come first. I wasn’t a real pal to him. He is the kind you have to make over and show' how you care, or he won’t make a move. He’s your slave if you baby him. I understand him well now', but I don’t know how to go about getting around him. I don’t want to make myself look cheap and vulgar. He’s very easy to handle if once I get to him, but I don’t know how to start, and there’s where you come in.

JUST A FOOL. Answer—Write him a letter and tell him how much you miss him and need him. Ask him to come and see you to talk things over and make it clear that he isn’t going to be scolded. Frankness and a persuasive attitude will turn the trick. I think it always is wise for the offended to make the first overtures toward the offender. The offender is not secretly aware of his own guilt and therefore is less tense. Your attitude is perfect, and I predict victory for you.

Nautical Turn of Mind Is Expressed in New Chintz: Pride of L: S: Ayres’ Store Design Drawn by Art Director at Suggestion of Furniture Department Head Scores Instant Hit. BY HELEN LINDSAY THERE’S anew pattern of chintz in the drapery department of L. S. Ayres & Cos. which is the pride of the store. It not only has made its first appearance in Indianapolis at Ayres', but it is the ere’’'ton of Lee Woods, art-director of the Ayres store. The new material is the “Jack pattern,” named for JacV; Adams, in charge of the furniture department of the store. It was at Adams’ suggestion that Woods drew the design. Draperies of the new material have been hung in Adams' office to carry out the nautical decorative motif prevailing there.

It is a conventional design made up of authentic sailor's knots, copied from posters of the Plymouth Cordage Company. Young Woods, whose work ordinarily involves the drawings of fashionable ladies in the newest clothing, and copies of other merchandise showm at Ayres, had his first experience in fabric designing in the making of the pattern for this new chintz. He was able to sell the idea to a fabric manufacturer, w'ho has produced the chintz in a number of colors. Woods now' is contemplating designing of a fabric with small caricatures on it, particularly adapted to the decoration of children's rooms. a tt a ADAMS’ office has been designed to satisfy his love of things nautical. A peculiar shade of blue.

particularly suggestive of the sea, has been used throughout. The walls are done in this color, with the exception of one side of the room. This shows an exact reproduction of a scene of ship mastheads against a clear sky, which is the inside cover design of the book "When Ships Were Ships and Not Tin Pots.” Adams admired the book, and persuaded a young Indianapolis artist to reproduce the cover in an enlarged design on one side of his office. The office furniture is upholstered in dark blue leather. Two interesting chairs, made with backs and bottoms of interwoven blue manila rope, are seen there. nun BLUE signal lights, which at one time actually were in use on ships, have been fitted with parchment shades covered with sea charts. The humidor on the desk is a deck light, and the ash trays are bronze reproductions of old longboats, used in whaling. At the windows, the drapes are made of the new chintz fabric, with its sailor knot design. The draperies are in full widths, with small brass rings around the edges, through w'hich w'hite line, such as is used in sailing, has been run. They are tied back w'ith manila rope. Draped over these blue curtains is an old fishing net, which at one time actually saw' service in the waters off the east coast of Massachusetts. It still is equipped with large cork floats. The office only recently has been completed in its new- decorative idea. It is one of the show places of the store.
