Soft Southern Accent to Hold Stage Here Tonight at Colonial Dinner Dance Traditions of Old Dixie to Be Presented by Exclusive Group at Colorful Party at Coliseum. BY BEATRICE BURGAN Time* Woman'* Page Editor THERE S a group of people in Indianapolis who’ve never learned to sound their r's. and about four times a year they like to gather and talk about home That's how Rivers Peterson, president, described the Southern Club when he sent out invitations to the colonial dinner-dance ! tonight at the Propylaeum Club. The hundred membership of the club is of the “manor bom,” which j in the south marks the distinction between those of the “house” and the ; overseers' quarters. To qualify for membership you must claim the !

southland as your homeland. A husband's eligibility I qualifies his wife and likewise a wife may earn mem- | bership for her husband. The club will do its share in preserving traditions | of the south at the party Monday. Mrs. Paul Schaffner, one of the members, is drilling a group in the 1 quadrille. Henry Ford, in nis attempt to revive the graceful dances of early days, published a book of in- j structions. Mrs. Schaffner has been following these instructions in directing dances for the party. In the quadrille, in graceful colonial costumes,'will, be Mr. and Mrs. Joe Merriam, Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy i Reese, Dr. and Mrs. Louis Belden, Mr. and Mrs. Mar- 1 shall G. Knox, Mr. Schaffner, Mr. and Mrs. George j Olive. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Edwards, Mr. and Mrs. W. R, Scaff and Mr. and Mrs. A. Glenn Shoptaugh. Mrs E R Blackwood will play accompaniment for: the dances, which will be called by Mr. Blackwood. It was about twenty years ago when a group from

Miss Burgan

the south decided to band themselves together. They limited their roster to one hundred, and today there's a list waiting for admission.

These new members will look forward to the Christmas dance, the business meeting and minstrel show in March and the card party in June. Decorations usually are in keeping with the southern theme. This year the officers and committee members will wear costumes of Civil war days. Mrs. Peterson will lead the Virginia reel and Misses Frances Treadman, Ruth Hendricks, Margaret and Dorine Willman will dance the minuet. Miss Bernice Regan will play the violin as the accompaniment.

Manners and Morals

What is your main difficulty? Would you like the opinion of an impersonal outsider? Write to Jane Jordan and read her comments in this column. If you enjoy reading the letters of others, remember that someone will enjoy reading yours just as much Dear Jane Jordan —I would like to hear what you have to say about long engagements. Three years ago when I was 21, I became engaged to a young man of 23. Our parents thought we were too young to marry and have kept us apart by thrusting more schooling on us than either of us wanted. My fiance’s mother used as an excuse the fact that the depression made it impossible for her son to earn enough to support a wife; so he might as well spend the time in getting a better educational equipment. My mother, who is more like an embittered old maid than a married woman, insisted that all a girl could feel at 21 was infatuation, and that my intense and passionate worship of the young man wouldn't last. The worst of it is that it begins to look as if she were right. I find myself attracted to other men just as if I were not in love with anybody. I hadn’t seen my finance since Christmas until this summer. Something alive seems to have gone out of our feeling for each other and our marriage still is postponed indefinitely.

Copies of the stamps carried on the famous Italy to Chicago flight.

AIRMAIL stamp collecting is the newest branch of philately which has advanced to widespread popularity. As aviation has progressed so the number of airmail stamps has increased. Although only forty-five issues were printed in 1920, in 1932 there were 672 new issues to place in albums, and 1933 gives promise of surpassing that record. Air travel, to the great majority of the world's population, still is an adventure, and even seasoned aviators enjoy the excitement of making record flights, racing at air shows, and joining the most recent thrilling aerial event —a treasure hunt in which a few lucky Indianians participated. Because of their romantic background, airmail stamps make an extremely interesting collection, particularly when supplemented

I don’t know r how’ to explain it but I feel as if I were in mourning for something that had died. I blame our parents, in a way. They could have helped us but didn’t. They aren’t poor on either side, and we are their only children. I don’t care much any more whether I marry the man or not, though it was once my idea of heaven. I feel horribly sorry about it. What do you think? HEDDA. Answer—The majority of long engagements fade out w'hen mating is postponed indefinitely by interfering parents of adverse circumstances. There is a moment in any

date when fulfillment will be possible. But years of waiting for a day which constantly recedes, but never seems to draw nearer, results in such profound emotional discouragement that “gleam by gleam, the glory drops from youth and love.”

Constant stimulation which results in frustration and defeat finally ceases to stimulate. Romantic literature would have us believe in the deathless properties of what it is pleased to consider “real love.” But love, alas, is a perishable plant which easily wilts without proper nourishment and finds it hard to flourish in a barren environment. Parents have every right to fear young marriages since they so often turn out disastrously. Their advice should be based on the degree of emotional maturity which young people manifest, Sometimes a girl cf 21 and a youth of 23 are as growm up in their attitude toward one another as they ever wall be. A young couple who is freed fully from the emotional need for parental care, but w'ho is not yet prepared to get along w'ithout economic aid, should be helped to marry instead of prevented from doing so, where the finances of the family are adequate. In the case of you and your lover, I attribute the twilight of love’s young dream to the ghastly selfishness of parents w'ho wished to prolong the period of their children's dependence far beyond its normal span. In so doing they only nave prevented them from making an adult adaptation to life and love and w'ork. Unless you and your lover can shake off the pernicious tentacles of parental possesion and dare to take some risk together, your dying love affair will breathe its last before long. Even now one or both of you has become too indifferent to make any real effort. Otherwise you never would have put up with three years of starvation. tt tt tt Dear Jane Jordan—What do you do when you like a boy but all your girl friends are crazy about him. too? When we are alone, I am just it. But when one of my girl friends is around, I am not seen. How' can I gain all his attention for myself? LADY. Answer —Search me He’s probably too young to settle down, but is in that stage where he responds with equal fervor to any good-looking girl. Probably he will love that girl best who most appreciates himI self.

by letters carried on historic flights—letters which may signify courageous accomplishment or add mute evidence of heroic tragedy. To date the most outstanding airmail stamps for 1933 were issued in connection with the flight of General Balbo and his squadron of twenty-four huge Italian Savoia - Marchetti hydroplanes, traveling the 6,278 miles from the Italian naval base at Orbetello to the lagoon of the Century of Progress at Chicago. To honor this ambitious undertaking which stirred the imagination and earned the admiration of the worid, Italy and each of her colonies, Tripolitania, Cyrenaica and the Aegean islands, issued a set of stamps and both Iceland and New Foundland surcharged a current issue. an n ENERAL BALBO designed the Italian stamp—one for outgoing mail and one for the homeward journey. They were printed in sheets of twenty stamps, since twenty of the squadron planes were to carry mail, and each one of the twenty stamps bore the name of a different squadron pilot. The current price of a complete sheet is $l5O. The stamps are unusual because they are three stamps in one. The first section shows the flag of Italy and bears as an overprint “Apparecchio” and the abbreviated name of a pilot. Lucky are those whose covers have the stamp with the abbreviation “Balb,” which means General Balbo. Such covers will be worth at least twice as much as the others. The second or middle section of the stamp bears the likeness of King Victor Emmanuel and represents the regular postage and registration fee. The third section is the airmail proper which, on the Rome to America stamp, pictures the squadron flying over the ancient ruins of Rome with the towers of New York’s skyline in the distance. On the United States to Rome stamp the third section is an allegorical picture of “Flight.” Botn types are issued in the same colors, red, green and ultra marine, but the stamps for outgoing mail were issued in two denomination, 5.25 lira plus 19.75 lira for use on mail to Iceland, and 5.25 lira plus 44.75 lira from Rome to Chicago. This set of three stamps now sells for $7.50. Five thousand of these Italian stamps were printed in red, green, and red violet, and overprinted “Servizio Di Stato” to be used for correspondence from high Italian officials to government officials in the United States. Approximately 100 were used and all but a few of the balance destroyed. Because of their scarcity they are valued at $22.50 each. ts n u SMALL quantities of mail were sent from Tripoli Bengasi, and Rodi to meet the squadron at Rome. Two pairs of stamps were issued by Tripolitania and Cyrenaica for use on this mail. The Tripolitania set uses one design picturing a squadron ship. Pegassus and an eagle, and has two values in different colors. The 19:75 lira is black and brown and the 44.75 lira is blue and green. The Cyrenaica special set shows the squadron flying at night. One value is red and indigo and the other green and indigo. The two sets sell for $5.50 each. The set from the Aegean islands uses the three Italian yarieties in new colors, red. green and blue gray, with the first and third sections overprinted “Isole Italiane Dell’ Egeo.” This set of three stamps costs $7.50. For the squadron stop at Rejkavik the government of Iceland overprinted three values of their current issue with “Hopfling Itala 1933’’ for use on squadron mail from Iceland. New Foundland joined in the enthusiasm and surcharged to the higher value of $4.50 8.000 of their handsome current 75-cent airmail stamps which picture “Labrador the Land of Gold.” This stamp is listed now at $8 a copy. The total number of covers carried by General Balbo’s squadron is given officially as 10,500. Thirteen sacks went to Montreal, twenty sacks each to New York and Chicago, besides small bundles for other points en route. Eight thousand four hundred letters were left at Amsterdam. Londonderry and Reykjavik. The value of the postage on this mail is estimated at $31,000. On the return trip only about 1,200 covers were carried. The first exhibit of the International Airmail Society is to be held at the Hotel Onodaga, Syracuse, N. Y„ Oct. 29, 30 and" 31. The exhibit will include model airplanes as well as stamps and covers. Lieutenant-Commander Frank Hawks and other noted pilots will be guests of honor. Different colored cachets, one for each day. will be applied to stamped addressed covers sent to the International Airmail Society, 1800 Fayette street, Syracuse, N. Y.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES ’.

Noon Lunch Is Vital to School Child Hot Meal Desirable for Youngsters’ Health, Expert Says. Miss Ruth Chambers, whose articles g’art today as a daily feature of this paper Is a home economics lecturer and writer of wide experience. She is a member of the staff of the national livestock and meat board, has done considerable work in experimental cookery and is a dietition of note. She will appear later In the city under auspices of The Times. BY RUTH CHAMBERS Tempting the appetite of a child who dashes home at noontime too excited or too hurried to eat is a problem for some mothers, while others face the task of satisfying the healthy appetites of one who is ‘half starved” and inclined to bolt his food. Besides the matter of pleasing the youngster himself, there is a vital health problem involved, for food is of great importance to these growing bodies and active intellects. When the child can come home to lunch, a hot dish is desirable during j most of the months of the school year, This basis of the mid-day meal may very well be soup, accompanied by sandwiches, dessert and a beverage of milk or cocoa, by way of variety, a heartier dish may be substituted frequently, such as scrambled eggs with minced ham, meat stew with vegetables, shepherd’s pie (meat pie with mashed potato cover), creamed frizzled beef on toast, macaroni or scalloped potatoes with small cubes of meat. When soup is served as the principal dish, it should be the hearty, “filling” variety, quite different from the thin soups which have for their purpose the stimulating of appetites. These must satisfy as well. Bean and Beef Porridge A nutritious inexpensive combination is bean and beef porridge. 1)2 cups dried beans 1 pound corned beef Vi povnd lean salt pork A dash of cayenne 3 quarts water 4 medium-sized potatoes, sliced 2 medium-sized onions, sliced Dumplings Small white beans are best. The beef should be in one large piece with no gristle and little fat and should not be very salty. If it has a little bone, so much the better. Soak the beans for twelve hours and then drain. Add beans, beef and uncut pork to the water. Bring to a boiling point. Simmer three or four hours, removing scum as it rises. At the end of this time ad/i potatoes, onion and cayenne and simmer for another hour. Add a little hot water from time to time to keep the quantity of liquid the same. A Whole Meal For the last twelve minutes cook the dumplings in the porridge. Cornmeal dumplings frequently are used. In place of dumplings, three or four tablespoons of cornmeal mixed to a smooth paste in water may be added about thirty minutes before cooking is finished. Before serving, remove pork and beef. If you wish, a little of the shredded beef may be returned to the porridge. To be most delicious, this porridge should be allowed to cool and stand for twenty-four hours, and then be reheated before serving. This dish forms a meal in itself and needs only the accompaniment of bread and butter and crackers, a beverage and a light dessert, such as fruit, raw or cooked. Fitting Desserts As desserts for school day lunches, suggestions are rice pudding, bread pudding, gingerbread or plain cake, and fruits in any form. Other soups which are nourishing and are well liked by most children are cream of corn soup, cream of potato and carrot, or any of the ready prepared soups.With these may be served cold meat sandwiches, which furnish protein of high quality. The meats should be sliced and placed between thin slices of whole wheat or white bread. Thin slices of roast pork or lamb or of beef, roasted or boiled, or of ham are tempting to the appetite as well as being nutritious. These meats also may be minced and moistened with a little milk or mayonnaise by way of variety in sandwich spread. A double deck sandwich may be served as a novelty and special treat. One layer js of sliced or minced meat and the other of finely chopped vegetables, such as chopped carrots and celery, moistened with mayonnaise.

VESTEE DESIGN

Perhaps you’ve noticed that ribbed fabrics are high in fashion’s favor this season. Aside from the usual corduroy and ribbed wool we find ribbed satin, ribbed crepes, corded sheers and cottons. These ribs look new and exciting—and they’re flattering to the woman w'ho is not slender. The woman's frock sketched here would be stunning in ribbed crepe with plain, and it has the added virtue of being a youthful style. Those pointed seams are slenderizing. The oval vestee and sailorlike collar are chic details. And the slender skirt will be appreciated by w'omen w’ho feel dressed-up in flares. Perforations provide for continuing the contrast half-w'ay down the back, if desired. This is an easy-to-make design!

Toys Sure to Bring Joy to Childish Hearts on Christmas Shown Here Formal Opening of Vonnegut Department to Reveal Many New Playthings Never Shown Before. BY HELEN LINDSAY ONCE upon a time” letters to Santa Claus were simple things to write. Little boys and girls could spell ''doll,” “drum,'' and the names of other toys that represented the thrills of Christmas gift-time. But the toys have become so complicated and so unusual that modern children will need the help of a secretary to express their wants

this year. The toy department at the Vonnegut hardware store is being prepared for the forma! opening. On display are new and interesting devices for the entertainment of all types of children. For the more active, there are "Skippy” scooters, with guards over the wheels; Irish Mails with pneumatic balloon tires; the newest bicycles in bright colors and carrying all of the latest gadgets in the way of horns, lights and tire equipment. Anew toy ice truck has a seat and steering wheel, so that its owner can ride it. Little girls will be delighted with the “Meccano Gardener”—a tiny hothouse, with packages of seeds, watering cans, and all of the equipment needed to make a real miniature hothouse. For the boy who likes to build, there is anew type of building log set, called the “Pioneer Builder.” With these logs, fashioned with grooves which fit together, making nails unnecessary, it is possible to

build log cabins, covered wagons, airplanes, bridges and windmills. Baby dolls still hold the place of popularity with little girls, and the more realistic they are, the better they please. a a a a a a Parchesi Remains Popular Game TN the collection of miniature furniture which is offered for youthful imitative housekeepers this year are kitchen cabinets, tables and chairs, doll beds, and other pieces, designed like those sold in real furniture stores. In addition there are stoves that really cook, washing machines which actually will launder doll’s clothing, and electric irons, kitchen cabinets, and other miniature housekeeping equipment, with all of the newest improvements. Although new games are brought out each year by toy manufacturers, the most popular game through the years continues to be “parchesi,” originated in India many years ago. Variations of this old game are shown this year in the “Ed Wynne Fire Chief” game, and others. o a a ana Classes Use Phonograph Records A REVIVAL of interest in music study has been noted at the Pearson Piano Company, in the amount of teaching materials sold recently. Phonograph record companies have taken into consideration the value of records in music study, and are producing records particularly adapted to this use. In the music classes conducted at Butler university this year, records from Pearson’s of complete symphonies, sonatas, and other arrangements valuable in music study are being used. a a a a a tt Old-Time Music Popular MISS DOROTHY BARTHOLOMEW, prominent in music circles as an accompanist, is in charge of the sheet music department at Pearson’s. She has noted a revival of interest in the old folk-songs, westerns, and in the hits from light operas and old sentimental favorites. “Katinka,” from “The Firefly,” and “Indian Love Call” continue to be in popular demand. Amusing requests come into the music department. One customer recently asked for “Human Rest,” meaning “Humoresque.” Another asked “Who wrote Handel’s ‘Largo’?” Many customers come into the store and hum a strain from some selection heard at the theater or over the radio. Through the use of records and a check of the music used in shows and over radio programs, the personnel at Pearson’s usually is able to identify the music desired. a tt it tt tt a Copies of First Lady's Hats Shown WHEN Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt made her selections in the salon of Lily Dache in New' York recently, she chose a group of hats for winter wear. One was a brimmed model of navy felt, stitched, and combined with matching ostrich cloth. The crown is creased, and a tailored bow is showm at the front. For more formal w'ear, Mrs. Roosevelt selected a turban of black stitched needlepoint velvet, trimmed with simulated aigrettes in the back. Reproductions of these tw'o hats will be seen at the H. P. Wasson store within the next few w'eeks.
