Council of Garden Clubs Sponsors Peony and Iris Show at Brookside Park Event in City Beautification Campaign Will Be Held June 1 and 2; Awards to Be Made. BY BEATRICE BURGAN Timn Woman's Pace Editor FLOWERS are being coaxed to grow their hardiest these few weeks remaining until the Indianapolis Council of Garden Clubs' peony and iris show June 1 and 2 in the Brookside park community house. Amateur and professional growers are working hopefully with their flowers, to be put in competition for ribbon and prize awards. It hasn’t been long since the council finished its work on the “City of Trees" project. Its members' indefatigable efforts in stimulating planting of street trees in co-operation with thp park board. Indianapolis Nurseryman’s Association and the civil works administration haven't diminished their enthusiasm in attacking another job.
■'We’re organized for city beautification and education," explains Mrs. W. D. Hamer, president. “Our flower show will serve both purposes. From the proceeds of the show we'll be able to meet expenses for more concentrated efforts next year in the tree planting project. The programs we are planning for the show r will be educational.” The council started little more than a year ago. Mrs. Hamer was vice-chairman and Mrs. Willard N. Clute, chairman of the garden section of the Woman's Department Club, and together they stimulated interest in forming a council to promote city beautification. Each garden club belonging to the council will plan floral decorations ror a table, in competition in a class to be judged by Mrs. Perry O'Neal, president of the Indiana Federation of Garden Clubs, and Miss Elizabeth Bertermann. Mrs. Hamer has lined tip the judges—Professor Clute, Mrs. Clarence Hughel and A. W. MacKenzie —

Manners and Morals
If you're brooding over a problem, get It out of your system by writing to Jane Jordan now! Her comments will help you straighten out your diffic jlties for yourself. Dear Jane Jordan—At the age of 20 I w-as deeply in love with a boy. but thought I was too young, as I had been graduated from
high school two years prior and wanted a job. My mother objected to my going steady with any one. One night he failed to come, but came the next night and apologized. He was an independent tyoe and I was also and this 3 e and us

apart. We both got jobs in distant cities. I located him two years afterward and we had quite a correspondence. I asked him to come and see me, but his job wouldn’t permit at that time, which I know to be a fact. In the meantime I grew tired of everything and just got married. Now I have a brilliant little son and love him as much as any mother could. My husband is a nice cleancut fellow and thinks everything I say is just that way. I feel sorry for him, but I love the first fellow. Would you blame me for locating him just to tell him that I love him? Love is a terrible thing when you are in this predicament. Thoughts of him make me happy and thrill me with a love that only those who love can know. I never could change my mind if I live to be a hundred. Please, if you can help me, do so, as I don’t tell any one—just suffer inwardly. LONESOME LOVER. Answer—Somehow I can’t fully believe in the reality of your love for your former suitor. Had your emotion been as strong as you think it is, you would not have passed up your opportunity when it came. Now you have a relationship with which you apparently have every reason to be satisfied. Nevertheless it lacks the ability to absorb you. What then is more natural than that you should invent a romantic ideal to fill the vacancy and explain your lack of satisfaction. Any marriage has its prosaic and uninteresting side, particularly after several years ot changeless companionship. It is much easier to luxuriate in dreams of perfection with no partner in reality to bring you down to earth. You have no way of knowing whether or not you would have been one speck happier with your first choice than you have been with your second. It is possible, though not probable that he would have been a better mate for you. But what can you do about it now? You can’t retrace your steps back to the point where you missed your alley, and start over again as if nothing had happened. You are not the same woman. Your lover is not the same man. You have not developed together, but apart. The changes that different experiences have made in you both

make it unlikely that you could pick up your affair where you left off without conflicts which are not in accord with your roseate dreams. Even while you had him your temperaments were not compatible. What makes you think that union with him would be so ideal? # n tt Dear Jane Jordan—Mrs. E. S. is quite wrong in accusing you of having a bad influence on our young people. I have three children, two sons and a daughter. They are all under 20 and more than 16. My daughter is a senior in high school. We all read your column every day and think your ideas always are right. If Mrs. E. S. would try to be a little modern herself and enjoy things her daughter does, her child would have turned to her instead of to you. I have very definite ideas on helping my children and these ideas work wonderfully. My youngsters have no father. We lost him years ago and that naturally brings us close together. We have had plenty of grief in lots of ways but J never have at any time neglected listening to every word of their large and small experiences. They have confidence in their mother and tell me everything. I, in turn, trust them infinitely. I do not trail after them but I always know where they are, and I enjoy the things they do. My entire family joins me in the belief that your writings are of the best, and any one who criticises you fails to share in the highest type of understanding. MRS. E. R. T. Answer —Thank you for your kindly letter. I should like to have published all of it. I always am interested in opposing viewpoints and expected more letters in support of Mrs. E. S., but they did not come. You are very smart to keep pace with your children and the changing ideas of the time. If they have real respect for your judgment they will hesitate to go against it. It is unconsidered prohibitions which children resent most. u b u Dear Jane Jordan—l have been going with a young man for a year who wants to get married, providing I find a job. He has a fine job and makes good money but is too cheap to spend it. If a woman ever glanced his way or smiled, he thought she was flirting with him. It seems men don’t have respect for women any more since women started drinking and smoking. I have thought the situation over and concluded that I am better off single than to marry a man like that. What do you think? THANK YOU. Answer —I think you are exactly right. I hardly think you could construe his conceit as a lack of respect, however. And I doubt that men lose respect for women because they smoke or drink. It’# not what they do but how they do it that counts. Patriotic Order of America will entertain with a card party tonight in Red Men’s hall, Michigan street and North Pershing avenue. Mrs. Flora Stark is chairman. Modern Woodmen will give a card party at 8:15 tomorrow night at 1025 Prospect street. Henry Sauter is chairman.

Romper Suit Wins Major Share of Attention in Ayres’ Beach Shop Show Shorts and Slacks and Battyng Suits of Many Colors and Designs Also Interest Water-Conscious. BY HELEN LINDSAY THE beaches this summer will be gay and lively places, if the Beach Shop at Ayres is to be taken seriously. Though how you can take seriously such frivolous bathing suits, accessories and beach clothing is puzzling. There are shorts in wide, bright plaids; slacks in a variety of colors, fabrics and designs, and most amusing of all. the briefest of romper suits. The romper suit is probably the high-light of the beach costumes. It is made of bright red printed pique, the pattern showing sailor's knots in white. The trunks are very- short, and the top is a halter neck, with
the accentuated bust-lines seen in all clothing this season, even in bathing suits. The same patterned fabric, in blue and white, is seen in a beach dress, made backless and with the popular halter neck, and a belt of thick white cord fastening with a metal anchor. Shorts for beach wear are made of jeawy, linen crash and othpr wash materials. They rail be worn with blazer sweaters made with crew necks or small tailored collars, or with bandana tops of bright colored plaids, in halter neck style. One unusual pair of shorts is made of fishermen's net. in linen, accompanied by a striped blazer jacket in red and white. The same unusual fabric is used in beach pajamas, fitted in at the waist, and worn with contrasting scarf of green and white or red and white stripes. Contrast is to be sought in beach wear, just as it has been in street and formal clothing during the past
season. Light slacks are worn with darker shirts or sweaters, and dark ones with the light ones, or white. Makers of B. V. D. underwear and bathing suits offer knitted slacks this year, shown at Ayres in white with a wide blue waist band. BBS BUB Brown Will Go Swimming Th's Year WHILE the conventional blue and black are still good in bathing suits, brown has taken a prominent place this year in the newer suits. One of the newer Jantzen suits is a skittless model, the trunks very short, and cut like the panties worn by small children. The trunks are plain brown, with a knitted band and an adjusting cord at the waist, and are worn with a bandana top of brown and white stripes. The trunks are made with an inside panel of silk and Lastex, to insure a neater fit. B B B BUB Bahama Blue Is Newest Color WHILE brown is combined usually this season with white in beach wear, it is seen, too, in a combination with aquamarine, which Is effective and unusual. No navy blue appears in the new- beach wear, but a brighter dark blue is shown, called Bahama blue. An unusual beach costume in this color is a slack suit, with trousers and top in one piece. The fabric is a fine jersey, and the top is halter-neck style. Fastenings are small metal anchors. In accessories, there are new- clogs, entirely of cork. Straps are bound in red. Beach hats still are wide and colorful. The newest ones are copies of Chinese coolie hats, in bright colored woven straw, tying under the chin with long ribbons. Around the edge of the wide brim ball fringe is used.
FOOTWEAR HINT TO THOSE WHO TRAVEL If you are going on a trip and haven’t room in your bags to pack several pairs of evening slippers and an extra wrap, take along something that will blend with each formal gown you intend to wear.
MAY 17, 1934
Mrs. Lindsay
If one of your fpocks is black and another is blue, pale green or some other pastel shade, black slippers and a black wrap will go with each dress. Brown satin pumps and a brown wrap will blend with almost everything except black. They’re very nice with pink and good with silver and gold.
