Paintings Show Joy of Living Work of Mrs. Bartlett Forms Exhibit at Art Museum. BY BEATRICE BL'RGAN Time* Woman'* Pa*e Editor lpP-lENDS of Mrs. Evelyn Fortune Bartlett, who arc visiting her rxhioition of paintings at the John Herron Art Museum, detect a reflection of her “Roman holiday" attitude toward life. The joyful and beautiful executions of the still life arrangements clearly show her love
of the things she lives with every day. When her husband and teacher, Frederic Clay Bartlett, came in one day he threw his hat, walking stick and gloves on a stool. “There's a picture,” she cried, as she rushed for the stepladder so she might look down on the arrange-

ment. Her water color tells the story without an explanation. The gloves still seem warm. Mr. Bartlett, who supervised hanging of his wife’s pictures, explained that Mrs. Bartlett has a liking for looking down on her, subjects. Several of her pictures are painted in this perspective. Backgrounds for several of the paintings are patchwork quilts, which Mr. Bartlett has collected. Arrangement of vividly colored dahlias against a patchwork quilt sounds incredible, but Mrs. Bartlett has mastered so completely color combinations that the picture is unusually effective. A large group of tropical fruits painted in water color is the result of a trip to Jamaica. While returning to the states, she spent her time on the boat painting. Delightful to feminine visitors is “My Dressing Table,” brightly ladened with colored bottles. Color is added by a mirror reflection of hei bed, covered with an embroidered spread. The spread was made from the lining of a Persian tent, which Mr. Bartlett collected in his travels. Paints Beveridges Portraits of Mrs. Albert Beveridge Sr.. Albert Beveridge Jr. and Miss Abby Beveridge were painted when they were at their summer home at Beverley, Mass., near the Bartlett home. Mr. Beveridge wears the Bavarian coat he took a liking to while on his wedding trip to Germany. A lovely pastel embroidered background enhances the blond coloring of Mrs. Beveridge. Mrs. Bartlett’s paintings of flowers give evidence to the fact that she loves, grows and arranges them. Mr. and Mrs. Bartlett rushed home Tuesday in order to be on hand at their estate to supervise erection of anew greenhouse. They greeted their friends and visitors Sunday at a reception sponsored by the Art Association of Indianapolis. Individuality Evident Mrs. Bartlett's exhibit will continue for two more weeks. Visitors are marveling that she has painted little more than a year and a half and that she has had no formal art schooling. She believes that all still life has its own expression of individuality, volume, weight and personality. She has r.o prearranged color scheme; each picture is painted with individuality. Visitors have admired her ability to paint textures. A glass vase seems brittle; fruit seems lush and heavy with ripeness. School Group to Elect Regular meeting of the Edgewood Parent-Teacher Association will be held at 2 tomorrow in the Edgewood gymnasium. Officers will be elected.

Contract Bridge
Today’s Contract Problem South has the contract at three no trump. West opens the five of spades, East wins with the queen and returns the deuce. West allows South’s jack to bold.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY' W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridfrc Leaffue TODAY’S hand was sent to me by R. W. Halpin of Chicago, a past president of the American Bridge League, who is in the midst of mailing invitations to contract enthusiasts throughout the country to come to Chicago to participate in the annual American Whist League congress next June. Chicago was the birthplace of the American Bridge League that is where we held our first national tournament —and it was the Chicago players who presented the national contract team-of-four trophy played for annually in the league tournament. In commenting on the hand. Mr. Halpin says: “It isn’t often that you plan to take a sacrifice at seven and then wake up with the contract made.” Only one table arrived at the seven contract, and it was by the bidding given here. West’s jump of three clubs over one spade is made to force his partner to keep the bidding open, as he has a two-suit hand. Os course, South's bid for four hearts r.hows an exceptionally strong hand. West's jump to six diamonds is
made with the expectation of making the contract. HOWEVER, North feels that it is time to try to shut out a slam, so he goes to six spades, which can be made on the hand. East, realizing that his opponents are vulnerable and that his side may have a good sacrifice, goes to seven diamonds, and, of course, you can not blame South for doubling. North opens the queen of spades, which is trumped by declarer with the deuce of diamonds. A small club is returned and ruffed with the nine of diamonds. The four of diamonds is returned and won with the ace. Another club is returned and ruffed with the ten of diamonds, South's ace dropping. Os course, all the declared had to do was to lead the jack of diamonds and then play a small diamond, winning in his own hand with the king ,cash the queen of liamonds and the clubs are good for a grand slam.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN
Would you like Jane Jordan’s opinion on tout family arguments? Put your question in a letter and read your answer in this column. Everybody is invited to join in the discussions. Dear Jane Jordan —My father and I had a friendly argument about my sister’s beaus. My father says he does not want to have every Tom, Dick or Harry to be invited to the house. He
says when my sisters go steady with a boy he will meet him and he can come to the house. My dad thinks it isn’t proper to meet every one and have no “steady.” I say it does no harm to be introduced to Tom, Dick and Harry, or to let them come in. I

know 7 my sisters are always sure of the boys they go with and that the boys behave well. We always read your column. Will you help with your opinion? JANE M. Answer—l am not sure that you have stated the case for your father fairly. If by Tom, Dick and Harry he means all the drifters and lounge lizards in Christendom who drop in to warm the furniture and make whoopee without expense to themselves, I do not blame him for objecting. On the other hand, I 'would not (ie a girl to a steady suitor before she had met many men and had a chance to compare them with each other. The wider the opportunities for a love choice, the easier it is to choose intelligently. Almost every girl has a deep abiding fear of being an old maid. Marriage is so important to her that she will take a second or third rate man rather than remain single. If the outlook for meeting men is poor, she will become discouraged in her search for a first rate man and take what she can get. Parents should not restrict their daughters in social contacts; but do their part, in making the family circle of friends as varied as possible. Girls should not be pushed into matrimony against their own emotional dictates. They always will flirt with Tom, Dick and Harry until they find a man who satisfies their requirements for a permanent partner. u n u Dear Jane Jordan —Do you think a person can reach the age of 20 without falling in love? That is my situation, although I have gone steady with several boys, and two have proposed to me. I would not marry them, for I do not think marriage is completed without love. Will I ever come face to face with love? LOVELESS PATSY. Answer—l have no doubt that you will fall in love head over heels in due time. The girl who thinks she is in love before 20 is mistaken about it about nine /times out of ten. I am surprised at your sagacity in attaching no importance to your early love affairs. U tt tt Dear Jane Jordan—We are both 25, and have been going together for over a year. We had hopes of marrying seme day. Then I found out that the nights he doesn’t come to see me he has dates with a married woman with a small child. Her husband works nights. I didn’t dream he would stoop to that and am greatly disappointed. I told him that I knew about her and asked him if he had any .more dates in the future. When informed that he did, I told him he need not come back. It hurts to give him up, but after all I have lost my confidence in him. Once that is gone everything is gone. Don't you think it will be best in the long run? O. T. Answer—lt takes a pretty poor sport to deceive an absent husband and his best girl at the same time, yet I must admit that men do not share this viewpoint to any extent. Few men would be as horrified by your fiance’s conduct as you are, but all women w r ould consider it reprehensible. Men hate to be caught in their misdemeanors and when their women demand better behavior, pride bids them refuse. A sophis-

ticated woman would never have mentioned the circumstance to her fiance, or if she did she would have made an effort to understand the man instead of simply labeling him black. You two are so far apart in your ethical concepts that I doubt if you reconcile them now or ever. You couldn't even make yourselfs intelligible to each other. For that reason, it is just as well to let the affair drop. You must Understand that I am not defending the man. I am simply more accustomed to the masculine viewpoint than you are, and I know that the man does not feel that Tie deserves your condemnation. He simply feels that you are a woman and therefore do not understand the needs of men. a a a Dear Jane Jordan —I am 18 years old and have been married a year and a half to the sweetest man in the world. He is 22. Due to unfortunate circumstances I was forced to leave my husband and my home in a small town to get a job in a theater here. The manager, who is a very handsome man, has been asking me to go out with him and I am afraid to refuse for fear I will lose my job. My husband is sick and out of work and my wages are all the money we have. I like the man but I am in love with my husband and w’ish to be true to him. Please tell me what to do. DISILLUSIONED. Answer—Stand by your principles and be faithful to your husband. The chances are that you will not lose your job. It takes a a hard-hearted man to fire an appealing woman for being faithful to her sick husband. That there are such men I do not doubt, but they can be handled by a clever woman who is sincere without being prudish. Are you sure that your loneliness does not inspire a fleeting desire for the admiration and attention of the other man? It is easy to persuade yourself that you are forced to do something which would be very pleasant except that your conscience condemns it. a o a Dear Jane Jordan—l am 23 years old and she is 17. and in her last year of high school. She told me that she loved me and I told her she just thinks she does. I have even gone so far as to ignore her. In spite of that she still says she cares for me. if I would let mysoll I could care for her, but I think I would be wrong in doing so. May I have your opinion? WILLIAM B. Answer—You are probably very smart not. to let so young a girl take her emotions seriously.

Gardens at Home Show Stimulate Interest of Citv Residents in Work: Expert of L. S. Ayres & Cos. Gives Suggestions Helpful to Landscaping Enthusiasts; Once Aid of Famed Burbank. BY HELEN LINDSAY WITH the gardens at the Home Complete Exposition as an inspiration, Indianapolis home-owners are planning extensive additions to their own gardens and landscaping this spring. Many of them are taking advantage of the advice given by Theodor Braun, garden expert for L. S. Ayres & Cos. Mr. Braun, a native German, was educated in an agricultural college in Germany, and later came to the United States, where he worked in the Burbank Exposition Farms at Santa Rosa. Cal. He tells an intimate little story of Mr, Burbank, which gives an insight into the feeling which the great naturalist had for all growing
things. Mr. Braun and Mr. Burbank were walking through the gardens at the farms, and Mr. Braun, carelessly swinging his hand through the blooming plants, pulled off two tiny blossoms. Mr. Burbank looked at the flowers caught between his co-worker's fingers. “Can you produce anything like that? If not. you should not destroy it.” Mr. Burbank admonished him. Mr. Braun tells the story, in illustration of Mr. Burbank’s love for his plants and flow r ers. This same love is a part of his own knowledge of growing things. His experiences in America since leaving the Burbank farms have included landscaping for some of the largest estates in this country. He planned the gardens for the estate of Harry B. Knight, backer of Charles A. Lindbergh in his flight in the Spirit of St. Louis. Mr. Braun also planned gardens in Colorado. Since coming to Indianapolis, Mr. Braun has done planning for Mrs. John Carey, at Haverway Farm.
Growing Plants Packed in Peat NEW evergreens are shown in Ayres’ garden department, raised by a local nursery. They are delivered the same day they are dug. and in the selection shown at the store are practically all varieties which grow w r ell in this climate. Particular attention has been given to the selection of evergreens and shrubs which are least susceptible to plant diseases. Last spring the Blaze rose, one of the first to be patented, was introduced to gardeners. This year Tt is shown in new packages, each guaranteed to bloom. The rose is potted in a paper carton, with moist peat about the roots. Directions for its planting are included with the package. It is only necessary to cut the bottom of the carton. Other new roses shown this year at Ayres are Dawn and Fragrant Pillar, both everblooming pink flowers. Like the Blaze rose, these two new plants are packaged and guaranteed to bloom. Shrubs also are prepared in packages with moist peat about the roots. The same treatment has been used in the preparation of perennials and rock garden plants. tt u Improved Gan den Equipment Offered ' NOT only are there new ideas in plants and arrangements, but garden equipment has been improved. A lawn edger, intended for the rutting of a small trough around the borders of the lawn, is made with a wheel and a scoop-shaped blade, which makes its operation easier than other models. There are long-handled dandelion diggers, and rubber rakes for the protection of tender grass and plants. Free wheeling has not been limited to automobiles this year, but is seen in anew lawn mower. The new model, shown at Ayres, is madp in an automobile plant, with this feature of the new cars. Where, with cider mowers, it was necessary to push the machine a short distance, and* then pull it back for another space, the new 7 mower can be run without stopping across the entire surface of the lawn. Older models required twenty-two pounds of pressure to set them in motion. The new tree wheeling mower will operate on a pressure of twelve pounds.
