St. Nicholas Honored in French Mode ‘L’Heure Francaise* Fete Is Tendered by Mrs. Rhoads. BY BEATRICE BI RGAN Tlmr* Woman * Page F.dJtor MRS. Robert Rhoads, Golden Hill, was hostess yesterday afternoon for "L'Heure Francaise." Her guests were members of the French class, which she has sponsored as a means of earning her portion of the Junior League budget for the Riley hospital. The pre-holiday party was French

in every detail. Mis s Pauline Schellschmidt, director, was visiting in France on one Dec. 6. and she observed the children gleefully celebrating S t. Nicholas day. They went about hugging their toys close to them. When she asked if they were celebrating Christmas, they cried. "Oh, no, it’s St. Nicholas day.”

Miss Burgan

Yesterday, in an American observance of the day, Miss Schellschmidt described various legends of St. Nicholas, who is honored in Holland, Switzerland, Belgium and France as the patron saint of boys. She chose as a title for her tale, “Comme L’on Fete Saint Nicholas En Belguique.” Homage is paid St. Nicholas in those countries, she explained, because according to legend, he saved children from starvation. Offers Original Story Modern children in the European countries cherish him as American boys ajid girls do Santa Claus. They look forward to Dec. 6 as the day for St. Nicholas’ annual visit, when he distributes toys to good children. Miss Schellschmidt also entertained the guests with an original French story, ‘ Les Poupees S Amusent." Her sister, Mrs. Louise Schellschmidt Koehne, played French compositions on the harp, including arrangements of "Chansons de Noel." Discussions after the program were in French, as w r ell as all conversation during the afternoon. Members of the class, which has been meeting weekly on Tuesday, joined with the purpose of improving conversational use of the language. Cookies Complete Party Mrs. Kurt Vonnegut presided at the tea table, which was lighted with green tapers and appointed with gold and green decorations. The hostess served a variety of cookies, which are important deli-, cacies in the menus of holiday celebrations in foreign countries. St. Nicholas’ observances aren't complete. Miss Schellschmidt recalls, without tempting cookies. Guests included Mrs. Anton Scherrer, Mrs. Kurt Pantzer, Mrs. John W. Hutchings. Mrs. Joseph Cain, Mrs. Edward Elliott, Mrs. William Mooney. Mrs. William Horn, Mrs. Louis Schwitzer and Mrs. Marion Geddes.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

If you are in quest of a better under standing of human problems, write to .sane Jordan. Readers are invited to compare experiences in this rolumn. Dear Jane Jordan—l am 25 and married a man of 38 six months ago. He has worked but very little since our marriage. He loafs at a poolroom twelve hours out of twenty-four. He gambles sometimes and keeps his winnings. I work every day and keep everything up. I have fussed at him and cried, and talked good to him, but nothing helps. Sometimes I think I love him and sometimes I hate him. Do you think he could love me and treat me like this? GOOD WIFE. Answer—Your husband doesn’t necessarily frequent the poolroom because he doesn't love you, but because he is trying to escape from his own feeling of inadequacy. He

has failed to compete in the c o m m e r cial world, therefore, he seeks an environment in which he can succeed. To win a game of pool is better than to win at nothing at all. The danger lies in the fact that the man may be too sat isfied with the sub-

stitute to make any real effort to compete on the useful side of life. Fussing, crying or talking good will not reach the difficulty which is hidden in his. own unconscious attitude toward life. He lets it lick him while he entertains himself with childish compensations. He fails at work but succeeds at play. Therefore, he reasons, why not play? I do not know what you can do other than build up his weak ego as well as you can and encourage him to tackle something worth doing. a a a Dea** Jane Jordan—At the age of 18 when I was in college I was married secretly to a young bank teller. We soon drifted apart and I got a divorce at the age of 19. After the divorce we began writing and seeing each other again. He spent his vacation with me last summer. My family entered into plans for our re-marriage. I was happy and looked forward to our future together. While visiting his home. I learned that he was implicated in an embezzlement and faced trial. He was released with the understanding that he pay so much to the bonding company weekly for i three years. He has only a small j income. In spite of this he still i wants me to marry him. I have another year in the university. I always have had nice clothes and a nice home. Now, would I be justified in refusing to marry him, since he can not support me? B. K. Answer—You would not only be justified but very wise indeed. The young man has proved his inability

■to meet any of the adult problems cf life. Both in love and in work he found himself to be out of his ; depth and played the part of an ; undisciplined child. I do not mean j that he is hopeless. He might function very well in a situation in j which he was not subjected to stress. But the strain of a poverty stricken | marriage is beyond his ability to bear, for the present. It only would drive him to other unsocial acts. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—l have been partying with a fellow' who is supposed to be separated from his wife, but I understand he stays with her week-ends. Yet he show's that he is appreciating my company. I am rather dumbfounded and don't know whether to swallow it hook, line and sinker or not. I really am in love. What shall I do? BROKEN HEARTED. Answer—Strive for more faith in yourself and your ability to attract a man without entanglements. It is woman’s weakness to read more into a man's love-making than the man intended. Your friend doesn’t take you as seriously as you take him. He would be amazed and irritated if he knew to what extent he figures in your plans for permanence. You see the man was only “partying" in truth, whereas you were becoming involved emotionally. I often think that a woman who is taken in so readily by a maFried man’s blandishments is one. who has been neglected by the single men of her acquaintance. Her self-confi-dence has been lowered by many disappointments. Love-making, even from a married man, is welcome. I see more personal defeat in your attachment than love. If this is true, you need to have an honest session with yourself, and search for power in fields more worthy of your steel. Luncheon Party Set Mrs. Isaac Born and Mrs. Otto P. Deluse and members of the board of the Ladies’ Society of the Indianapolis Maennerchor will be hostesses for a Christmas luncheon and card party to be held at 12:30 Friday at the Academy of Music.

BECOMING PEPLUM Getting a little tired of the slender sheathlike silhouette already? If you are, then you'll be interested in the latest silhouette development—broken slimness. One of the smartest ways to break the tubular effect is with a peplum, and if you think that a peplum is not becoming to every type of figure, here's one that proves you are wrong. It is joined in a pointed line that makes the waist seem positively wasp-like, and you can see for yourself what magic it works with the hips. Other details that mustn’t be overlooked are the raglan sleeves with that out-at-the-elbow fulness and the little turn-down collar of fur cloth—they are both fashions that will bear watching. Size 16 requires 3% yards 39-inch material. % yard 50-inch fur cloth. Width about 1% yard.

Diversion Wholly Devoid of Sense Declared Great Need of Women of Today Feminine Realm Lacks Such Amusements as Kelly Pool and Stud Poker in Which Men Indulge. BY GRF.TTA PALMER, Times Special Writer. NEW YORK. Dec. 6.—Needed—A feminine substitute for Kelly pool. Or for stud poker. Or for any of the other forms of diversion which men enjoy in their suspenders in a nice, unhealthful cloud of smoke you could cut with an unabridged dictionary. For modern women—especially working women—are in a rather bad way for recreation. They have outgrown the interminable crocheting and teacup scandal which provided entertainment for the women of a quieter age. And they have not taken, with a really honest or widespread enthusiasm, to those rowdier forms of amusement by which their brothers let off steam. Some of these hard-working women are beginning to feel the need of less austere amusements than theatergoing and attendance at politely formal dinner parties, it seems. Their point of view was expressed by Miss Catherine Oglesby, magazine editor, who urged that "the true reason for working wisely from 9 to 5 is to enable people to play foolishly the rest of the time.” a a a a a a Work Wisely; Play Foolishly WISE woi*k and foolish play." said Miss Oglesby, "is a sure means of success. Psychologists who have studied tyomen in business, declare that most women fail to advance because they don't know how to play. For this reason I rpcommend mischief to you." And in that innocent little phase, "this reason.” lurks the secret of the business woman's difficulty in relaxing. Miss Oglesby is completely wise and right in urging that working women should jump over the traces and enjoy themselves as soon as their desks have been locked for the day. But need they be urged on to have a good time by the promise that it will eventually get them a raise? Can't they learn to play because they like to? n a ft a ft tt Dreary Reason for Good Cause 'TPHERE are women who go conscientiously to a gymnasium several A nights a w r eek and practice the prescribed exercises as joylessly as if they were walking around a treadmill. They are doing it "to keep fit" —and if any drearier reason has ever been found for physical activity we have yet to hear it. There are women who grimly arrange a social schedule which will permit them at least two evenings of sociability a week—because they have been told that their efficiency during working hours will profit from the change. You can imagine what gay and jolly companions they are!
