Checks go Shopping in City Stores Both Silks and Woolens Reflect Choice of Style-Minded. BY BEATRICE BURGAX TtniM Woman * Pace Editor BRIGHT spots in a dull day yesterday were the colorful spring ensembles of the women who took advantage of a quiet dav for shopping. We would say the mode has a checkered career this season, judging from the popularity of checked

patterns in silks and woolens. Mrs. Sylvester Johnson Jr. shopped in a simply tailored blue and white checked suit with three - quarter length swagger coat. To match the tailored simplicity was a navy blue linen blouse and blue straw hat of modified sailor type. Mrs. Harold

Miss Burg an

Tharp hurried down the street in a youthful black suit with waist length jacket. A black and white checked blouse peeped from beneath the jacket. A tiny red straw hat added a dashing note. Mrs. Batlst Haueisen wore an English looking brown and white checked coat, over a brown dress. Her brow’n felt hat turned upward. and an orange feather was stuck in its band. White stripes formed a diagonal plaid in the gray coat which Miss Florence Kirlin wore with a black dress, neatly finished at the neckline in white. Miss Kirlin motored to Lafayette today to join in the the discussions of the state convention of the Indiana League of Women Voters. The wide collar of the red printed dress of Mrs. Walter Stuhldreher, who lunched at Ayres’ tearoom, fell over the shoulders of her gray coat, high waisted and fitted. The collar was edged with pleated ruffles. Sister Frances Jerome, vice-presi-dent. and Sister Maria Pieta, assistant dean, both of St. Mary’s college of Notre Dame, will be honor guests at a tea to be given by Indianapolis Alumnae, from 3 to 5.

South will win with the ace, cash his queen and jack of hearts, picking up the outstanding trump, and will ldse only two spade tricks. With the king of hearts, which he has already lost, this gives him four odd. If East, instead of leading a spade, were to return a diamond. South would be forced to ruff with the jack of hearts. Now South will lead clubs, but the third club will be ruffed by East with the seven of hearts. East will then lead another diamond. which South will be forced to ruff with the queen of hearts. West will get out of the way with the ace of diamonds, and now the only other trick the declarer can win is the ace of spades, because when he leads a club.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Don't lock up your troubles. Spilt them to Jane Jordan whn will help you in your search for a solution. Here Is ypur chance to state your problem without revealing your identity. Dear Jane Jordan—When married, my wife was 18 and I was 25. She never was my equal physically, but in time her desires increased and I became reconciled. I always have been considerate of

her and my sensitiveness will not permit me to receive unless she freely gives. We have two fine daughters. I loved my wife and still love her. I believe she loves me in her own peculiar way. At ’27 she had a serious illness which doctors said

• wmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm • pßp : ' w ■ Ik

Jane Jordan

was both mental and physical. With much solicitude I provided doctors, nurses and hospitals, which strained me financially. At 36 she recovered to what seemed a reasonably normal healthy condition and her desires returned to about what was normal for her. At 46 I had a dangerous illness and never since have been as strong physically as my wife. She seemed to resent my illness, although it is a silent resentment, not expressed in words. She cares for my comforts kindly enough, although it is more like the care of a sympathetic nurse than that of a wife. I have provided better for her than she had been provided for at home, and have given her more than any of her brothers and sisters ever have had. She loves her daughters, mother, brothers and sisters inordinately, but I can not detect any spontaneous outpouring of the heart toward me. She seems to take me for granted. She has become altogether indifferent to me as a lover. Our physician says she is normal physically and that there is no apparent reason why she should be thus. We never quarrel over this and very seldom speak in anger. In a friendly talk I told her I saw no reason why she should object if I found relief from another. I have no moral inhibitions against this, but I do love and respect my wife. One embrace from her would solve my problem. What do you say? Answer—ls your physician assures you that your wife’s deficit in vitality is not due, to physical causes, then it must be psychological. But since the woman is a closed book to me, I can not help you much. If she would write explaining her lack or response, I could do better, but aloof women usually keep their own secrets in such matters. It takes two persons to make one cold woman. No matter how well they mean, men are exceptionally blind to the psychic factors which affect women. The most bitter complaint that comes to the column concerns the husband’s lack of imagination, his ignorance of the aesthetic needs of his wife. Some women decline because of the lack of artistic form. Some are in revolt against one phase of marriage which‘they do not like. Some are unable to merge their personalities with another, or they feel that the husband is incapable of entering into their own feelings. Mary complain of the barriers raised by differing tastes. Monotony of approach often causes the wife to become intoxicated with her own coldness, and she behaves as if she sought the needed variation in her own indifference. The best thing you can do is to study your wife's temperament until you cultivate a greate" emotional awareness. What conditions arouse her to tenderness? I’ve heard some of the most self-contained women confess to vague yearnings during a concert. Others are stimulated by reading erotic literature. Some crave an elaborate wooing by the husband, and are completely changed by the recreation of the conditions of the engagement. Rest from the cares of housekeeping, relief from the problem of children, prolonged vacations and separation from the husband sometimes liberate energies for lovemaking. All these suggestions are merely guesses gathered from observations of other cases. Perhaps some of them will help you. Even with your wife’s consent, a love affair with another women will lead to unexpected complications. Many men have tried this solution, but usually got in trouble with the other woman, who soon learned to demand more than the original agreement called for. Auxiliary Head Feted Mrs. R. R. Cook entertained at dinner last night at her home, 40 South Colorado street, for Mrs. Marie Palmer, South Bend, Indiana district president of Ladies Auxiliary, Veterans of Foreign Wars.

Block Store* Addition Will Anticipate Ideas of Newer Architecture Features Used Only in Largest Stores and Others Not Duplicated Elsewhere Will Be Employed. BY HELEN LINDSAY THE first important step in building an addition to the Wm. H. Block Company store was completed Saturday, when huge concrete blocks were finished. Weighing 212 tons. 106 cubic yards of ready-mixed concrete was poured, reinforced by five tons of steel, to make blocks which will brace the columns cf the building. These blocks will be concealed beneath the basement floor of the new building, and though the. will not be seen by customers when the store is completed, they form one of the mast important features of the building. There will be forty of these blocks under the building. At present the blocks are being used to support braces, which are

holding a wall of steel sheet piling around the site on which the store will be completed. The steel wall is being driven into the ground with huge steam hammers, using the same methods as in marine work, and construction of bridges and dams. After the wall is completed, which is scheduled for this week, the noise of the steam hammers will be ended. The excavation is presenting a problem in engineering. Each bit of dirt which comes from the huge hole which will be the basement of the store is removed only after careful calculation, and preliminary work of putting in braces and retaining walls. Completion of the additions, expected about Nov. 1, will be the realization of a dream of the officials of the Wm. H. Block Company which has been considered for three years. Plans include features seen in many of the larger stores of the country, and building innovations which

are not in use any place else, but are recognized as necessities in stores of the future. tt tt tt tt tt tt New “Knee Hiah ” Hose to Appear Soon WITHIN the next ten days, Holeproof's new “Knee-High" hose will arrive at Rink's. It is anew silk stocking, designed for summer wear, and for active sports usp. Available in sports, day time and evening weights and colors, the new is made to come just below the knee, with a Lastex band around the top, holding it firmly in place. It is to be worn with garterless foundation garments. St St tt St St St New Film Stresses Blue and Black THE importance of black and navy blue in the new wardrobes for the season is seen in costumes of Dorothy Dell, a "Miss America" beauty winner who will appear in “Thank Your Stars.” With Miss Dell will be Ben Bernie and members of his band. Several casual frocks of navy are shown in the collection for the picture. One is of crepe de chine, simply designed, with novel collar and cuffs. Huge double ruffles of white souffle edged with narrow lace and navy satins ribbon are used for these. The collar ties high about the throat. % The high-necked effect is noted also in a polka-dotted net evening gown worn by Miss Dell. An interesting costume idea with this is a fan constructed of the same polka-dotted net. tt St tt tt tt tt White Chiffon Worn by Genevieve Tobin WHILE Miss Dell expresses a preference for the darker shades, filmy white has been used for another of the Paramount stars in her screen costumes. Genevieve Tobin, appearing with Carey Grant in ‘‘Kiss and Make Up,” wears a white chiffon frock with pleated skirt. With it she wears a long tunic of knee-length, belted in black velvet, and black velvet broad-brimmed hat and gauntlet gloves.
