A Woman’s Viewpoint BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON A MORE optimistic note creeps into the foreign news. Eugene J. Young says Europe is beginning to settle down and that even Hitler is turning his attention to unemployment and away from the training of boys in war-ways. A general conflict does not seem imminent at the moment. Many reasons are given for the slow change in sentiment and political figures, interviewed, explain it by various theories. However, one doesn’t have to be historian or statesman to see what has happened. Simply, it is this: These European leaders are finding out the people do not want war; they are learning that there is a strong and ever-growing rebellion against the jingoism which breeeds it. However confused the world may seem, men and women are questioning their rulers as they have never done before And it always is profitable to remember one simple fact. Before a leader can begin a war—which it is not always within his power to end —he must have his people behind him. Something more potent than cannons have to be brought to battlefields. You may load your men with explosives and provide them with clothing and food, but unless they are also equipped with a determination and a will to wage war the campaign will die before it begins. Lacking such a wall, men are not soldiers fighting for a cause; they are sheep driven to the shambles. Yet a well nigh incredible condition prevails. Huge armament programs continue. In spite of the significant omens and the mutterings of the people who are tired of warring, ballyhooings for increased outputs go on and the propagandists dish up the same old hash and expect to have it swallowed. Even in the United States, where the great body of citizens are bitterly opposed to war. where all cries are for peace, we are building the largest naval fighting force we have ever had. Doubleday, Doran & Cos. of Garden City, N. Y., is publishing in booklet form the amazing revelations of the armament makers who, though they foster nationalism. are truly international in their activity and interests. That will explain how war scares are kept alive. Get it and find out how the common man is duped. Club to Entertain Mothers’ Club of Fall Creek, Indianapolis Free Kindergarten Society. will entertain with a covered dish luncheon at 1 Tuesday at the kindergarten. Miss Juanita Bivins will talk on "Is Happiness Worth Cultivating?" Mrs. Syrus G. Haig will preside. Bride Party Scheduled Mrs. Eugene Wilcox is general chairman of a bridge party to be held tomorrow night at the SpinkArms by Alpha chapter. Phi Tau Delta sorority. Mrs. Erwin Bohn is ticket chairman. The sorority will hold a business meeting Friday. May 11. at the home of Mrs. Noble Mor_ gan. 4806 Allisonville road.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League IT does not pay to attack a slam contract with a normal opening. If a slam has been bid by two good opponents and they seem to arrive at the contract without any misunderstanding, it is up to you to try to reserve a trick for yourself or to establish a trick for your partner. Today's hand was played by C. B. Pennybaker, Cleveland, who, with his partner, W. J. Roberts, recently won the Greater Cleveland tournament. tt a tt SOUTH has a defensive type hand. When holding this type of hand, it requires three and one-half primary tricks to open the bidding; therefore, South properly passed. North does not have a no trump type of hand. While he has an exceptionally strong hand, he can bid nothing but one club. Os course, this is a third hand club bid and may signify weakness, but. in face of that, when South went to two no trump, he signified that he had everything but an original bid. North was justified in going to four no trump, as a jump bid shows South that his partner had a real bid and that his suit was clubs. So. with four clubs. South felt that he had a good fit in clubs and jumped the contract to six. a a THE big problems on this hand is the opening lead. If West opens a club, the declarer is going to make three clubs, four diamonds, two hearts, and three spades. With a spade or a diamond opening. the declarer can make it tough for West, but West can defeat the

slam when the hand is stripped down by going in with the king of hearts and exiting with his jack of hearts. When the hand was actually played, west opened the three of hearts, which I believe to be a poor lead, because it is certainly into a

tenace position of the declarer's. I would prefer to hold back on the hearts and clubs. My most likely lead against a slam contract would be the singleton diamond. However, with a heart opening, Mr. Pennybaker won the first trick with the ten and then cashed foiu diamond tricks, discarding a club from dummy on the fourth diamond. West let go a club and two spades, so the declarer now cashed three spades, discarding a club from his own hand on the third spade. West, on the third spade, was forced to let go the nine of hearts. Therefore, Mr. Pennybaker led the ace of clubs from dummy and then played the six of clubs. East showed out and Mr. Pennybaker went up with the king. He now knew that West had the king and jack of hearts and the queen of clubs, so he led the ten of clubs, putting west in the lead, and west was forced to lead away from his king-jack of hearts, giving Mr. Pennybaker the last tw r o tricks.

Would you like an outaido viewpoint on your problem? Explain the situation to Jane Jordan and read her answer in this column. Dear Jane Jordan —My husband has been keeping another woman for the last eighteen months. She gets the largest part of his salary while I get aoout Sl2 a week for my family. Now my husband loves

us all. At least he says so. I think he knows I'm next to his side-step-ping, but as yet I have never mentioned anything to 'him about his actions. He has no time for any conversations. He is always hanging around the front windows

and dolls up like a real sheik. Please advise me. Should I step in and break up this affair, or let it run its course ? When you answer this, just give contempt and condemnation for these home-wreckers, especially where married folks are happy, and quote, “What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.” His salarv is $125 a week. Money is all they want, these gold diggers. MRS. H. P. Answer —If you want to stay marrid to your husband you would do well to stand by and give the affair a chance to have its day and die. Opposition only fans the flame of desire and punishment is worthless as a cure. The law will stand by you and see that you and your children are protected financially but love can not be legislated. It would be worse than useless for me to upbraid the woman whom you believe to be the cause of your trouble. She may cr may not be unscrupulous. I have no way of telling. You may be mistaken about the amount of money she receives. In any event I would not call her a cause, but an effect. The cause lies in the shakiness of the marriage itself which was not sufficiently virile to protect it from an intruder. A mere surface pleasantry in marriage is no indication that there are m corroding discontents underneath, no infantile desires which struggle for fulfillment. In my opinion marriages are not made in heaven. They are not held together by a Deity whose sanction makes them sacred, but by the contracting parties themselves. A human being’s capacity for co-opera-tion has more to do with the stability of marriage than divine approval. You may not be to blame for the situation at all. Your husband may be searching for satisfactions which are not in harmony with reality. So far you have shown unusual poise in not splitting the situation high, wide and handsome. In your search for a solution, I can suggest only that you dc not rely on flaying your rival to win back your husband. It can not be done that way. u tt tt Dear Jane Jordan—My eccentric parents have not let me lead a normal sex or social life, and I am rightfully considered a queer person. I do not even understand myself. My list of accomplishments would mark me as a wonder, and my list of faults would indicate that I was the most hopeless of failures. How can I get a better comprehension’ of myself? I tried self-study, but it got me nowhere. I would like to just talk and let someone know’ enough about me to understand me and give me some advice. I hear that there are people called psychoanalysts who do that kind of work. Could I get such advice in Indianapolis or Chicago? When? Where? How much? Should I try to get such advice or what? WORRIED. Answer —There are no psychoanalysts in Indianapolis. There are. however. some competent psychiatrists who could help you. Get your family physician to recommend one. The Institute of Psychoanalysis in Chicago can give you the information you desire about the cost of analysis. A good analysis takes a long time, approximately four hours a week for eighteen months to two years. n a u Dear Jane Jordan—l am one of a large family and a so-called black sheep. I haven't much education except what I have learned from books and hard knocks. I was married off when a child because my family wanted to get rid of me. Mother never told me any of the facts of life. I w’as happy until the first baby came. Then my husband seemed to change. He would not help care so the baby or help me in any way. I w’as a physical wreck, too weak to do my work, but had to do the best I could. I have always taken his abuse in silence rather than quarrel. I have had to work and skimp everywhere I could to buy clothes and books, as he thought a pair

of shoes should last a year. About two years ago he fell hard for a girl not much older than his oldest daughter. She moved away about eight months ago. Then my husband began to drink and stay out nights. He would rave in his sleep about how he loved this girl and was through with me. I have never nagged or quarreled with him. I gave up all my friends because he didn't like them. I have done everything I know, but must have failed somewhere. Our last child will be through school this spring and I am thinking of leaving. I’m not jealous of this girl. I thought a lot of her and still do. But I don't know whether I care for my husband any more. I don’t care when he goes, where, or how long he stays. I used to get lonesome, but don't any more. He will do anything for his pals, but -thinks we need nothing. • DEAN. Answer—ls you have spirit enough to leave and the courage to provide for yourself, no humane person could condemn you for deserting a bankrupt marriage. Your spirit seems to have been broken by your experience. I can see that you aren't much of a fighter. Therefore. I tremble for your future in battling the world by yourself. for only the fighters survive. You are in danger of sinking into a state of self-pity that will be a decided handicap to you in any business. When you let yourself in for martyrdom over a period of years, the recital of wrongs becomes a sort of negative satisfaction. It isn't so much that you need to look on the bright side of things as that you should attack your problem in an aggressive manner. Don't be afraid to assert yourself on the positive side of life. As it is, you are inclined to give up and enduie your WTongs rather than struggle against them.

Femininity to Be Motif i of Costumes Women Will Wear at Kentucky Derby Tweeds Will Be Seen, But Not the Smartly; Rough Type; Soft Colors and Alluring Details Prevail. BY HELEN LINDSAY WOMEN spectators at the Kentucky Derby this year will take advantage of the new fashion slogan. "It's smart to be pretty," and their costumes will be thoroughly feminine. For years the trend of fashion has been to the tailored and smart rather than to pretty colors and soft, alluring detail. New pinks and blues and the most distinctively feminine fabrics have become the accepted vogue. Even in tweeds, this is seen. Tweeds at one time meant dark, roughly woven woollen fabrics, and were used in severely tailored suits and swaggering sport coats. They were smart, but they weren't particu-

larly pretty. The first tweeds were made in peasant cottages in Scotland, and had a definite odor of peat smoke about them. Now. the smart young woman who goes dashing off to the sport of kings at Churchill Downs tomorrowwill wear, more than likely, a tweed suit or coat. But it will be in some luscious pastel shade, or in white. Many of these will show the popularity of pale gold or dull yellow, and others the variations of the pastel colors of blue, ro.se and green. There are several ways to dress for the Derby, and experts say "by their clothes you shall know them,” or at least from what section of the country they come. Eastern women usually wear tailored or smart sports clothing, while the native Kentuckians and southern women choose for their Derby costumes crepe suits, or sport dresses with jackets. The most interesting thing about these is that the dresses

jkT -

Mrs. Lindsay

have been made this year to look equally as well with or without the jackets. Os course, there will be smart knitted suits, too. Some of these will be made of cotton chenille yarns, which have a velvety look, and are knitted in a loose, open weave. Some of the coats at the Wm. H. Block Company store, suggested for Derby wear, and equally as suitable at the speedway race here, are in fitted, belted style. Most of them have individual trimming detail, with large revers buttoned down with huge buttons. Others are made with the revers buttoning across the front in a diagonal line, with large white buttons. One had short cape sleeves, with lines of fagotting down them, and the cape idea was seen in a white polo cloth cape, coming almost to the bottom of the hemline of the dress. a a u u tt tt Peasant Weave Linen Used in Coats OTHER coats, particularly suitable for Derby wear, since they will not show soil or wrinkles easily, are made of peasant weave linen, in open mesh. One is trimmed with large crystal buttons. Following the races, there will of course be social activities which will require dinner clothes or evening dress. These will be of taffeta, organdies, or printed nets. The printed net has been suggested for daytime wear this year, in addition to evening costumes. One suit of this fabric at Block's, which makes a charming afternoon outfit, is of navy and white printed net. slightly stiffened, and worn with a wide navy patent leather belt. It has a white net blouse, with a very fluffy and feminine jabot down the front. In darker wear suggested for the races. Block's showed a navy blue taffeta suit, with revers of blue and grey diagonal striped taffeta. The revers extended down the front, and into a band around the bottom of th£ short jacket, making pockets at each side. A checked sheer jacket dress in one of the soft shades of blue has pleating around the neck and sleeves, and a huge cluster of bright colored field flowers at the neck. a tt a a a Swagger Suit Shown in Dusty Rose A DUSTY shade of rose was seen in a swagger suit, with push-up sleeves for the coat, and dropped shoulders. Another suit was of pink crepe, with a full length coat, showing a capelet around the shoulders. The coat was sleeveless, but the dress had full sleeves, caught in with tucks at the bottom. Blue polka dotted white organdy flowers were used at the neck. A deep shirred yoke was seen in another crepe suit dress of powder blue. The sleeves were full, and came to just below the elbows.
