Lively Tennis Situation Created by Champions of Woodstock’s Tournament Mrs. Haerle and Mrs. Cox Each Has Two Victories; Interest Manifest in This Year's Event. BY BEATRICE BURG AN Times Woman’s Pare Editor FRIENDLY rivalry between Mrs. Elsa Pantzer Haerle and Mrs. Thomas Harvey C---x enlivens the tennis situation at Woodstock Club this summer. The club tennis tournament has been held for four summers and the record stands with two championships to the credit of both Mrs. Haerle and Mrs. Cox. Mrs. Haerle was runner-up last year to Mrs. Cox, who won after eliminating several good players. Mrs. Kurt Pantzer has returned with her children, Kitzie and Fritizie, from Wilmington, Del., and has be-

gun arousing tennis tournament interest. Mrs. Cox and Mrs. Pantzer, comfortably garbed in white gaberdine shorts, had a practice match this week. Mrs. Haerle motors out to the club from her home in Woodruff Place several days a week. Miss Mary Adelaide Rhoads is another of the players who enjoys the freedom of shorts while playing on the courts. Mrs. George T. Parry and Mrs. Sylvester Johnson Jr., have been frequent visitors at the club. Helen Griffith, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore B. Griffith, is playing w’ell this year. Her young sister, Sylvia, frequently provides competition for her. Helen might enter the tournament this year if she were not to spend the summer with her parents at their summer home in the east. Mrs. Ralph Vonnegut will go to Lake Maxinkuckee this week to spend the-summer with her

Manners and Morals

BY JANE JORDAN

What are tout reactions to what you read in this column? Let everybody join in the discussions as they come up! Dear Jane Jordan—l do not always approve of your opinions; it seems to me that you are too rationalistic, and I find it more helpful to lean on idealism. But when you advised the young man Maurice to try a few of his pet temptations, I recalled what a morbid state I got into over a desire to smoke. I fought temptation, had near-nightmares about stealing smokes. Then I recalled some psychology I had read, and on two occasions, a couple of weeks apart, I stole a cigaret. The dreams stopped. I decided that the after taste and odor were more than I cared to have become a part of my personality. I have never since wanted to smoke. Kissing also tempted me, and I tried it with one whom i knew made a habit of it. I liked the sensation, but decided it would be well to limit my kissing acquaintance; that kisses should be an expression of real affection. I enjoyed two kissing acquaintances before I met the one whom I married. I think my experiments helped me to sane decisions, and I could not be happier in my life's companion. I admit that experiences lead to other temptations, but I found an inward poise, a sense of proper values, which made it easy for me to hold myself true to the ideals I had set for myself. A READER. Answer—Almost anything loses caste by familiarity. When young people are tormented by a desire to find out what smoking or kissing is

like, I believe it is better for them to have a whirl at it, as you did, than to strive for such rigid control. A well-balanced person will not fly completely off the track for a little fling. In order to be good it is necessary to know something of the

bad. We probably get a lot of the bad out of our systems vicariously by unconsciously identifying ourselves with the vamps and villains of the movies. But there is no percentage in walling off everything which does not conform to rigid Puritanical standards. Some things have to be walled off, to be sure, but there is no sense in building up a mass of unnecessary restrictions. Dear Jane Jordan—l would like to give the 19-year-old boy Maurice some advice. I, too, was a boy with strict parents. In my early life I thought they were a little too hard on me. They are both dead now. I am past 45, and the older I get the more I can see why they watched me so closely and advised me to take the straight and narrow path. I thank them for it now. I never drank or used tobacco or went to wild parties, for which I give my parents the credit. When I am offered a drink or cigaret, I am proud to say “No thanks, I don’t use them.” I personally know the three young men who killed two officers in southern Indiana a few days ago. They did not take their parents’ advice. So, young man, stay with your raising and be proud you have strict parents. If you ned advise go to father or mother and get it from one who really loves you. GEORGE F. FROWNFELTER. Answer—Your experience has beer* so satisfactory to you that you can’t imagine a different set of reactions between parent and child. You do not realize that a more independent temperament might blow up under the same treatment which you received. Dear Jane Jordan—l am 17 years old, very pretty, and desperately in love with a fellow. I would love to marry him, even though I realize I am too young. My mother disapproves of my going steady with him and forces me to have dates with fellows I hate. She is very unreasonable and just does not undertsand me. I have other dates and then lie to my friend. He finds out every time. He has given me many chances, all of which I have broken for mother’s sake. He is getting fed up, and I don’t blame him at all. The last fight, I am afraid, is final. He has changed in every way. When I cry, he laughs. When lam blue, he calls m a spoiled baby, put I know

he loves me. You have no idea how I long for warm arms to comfort me. I need advice very quick. I can’t give him up. FORSAKEN BY ALL. Answer—l think in this instance that your mother understands you far better than you understand yourself. She knows that the first love choice of an immature girl is seldom wisely made. She wants you to circulate in order to have the advantage of a wide choice. Although you do not know it, you are more in love with the act of loving than with the boy himself. His behavior toward your other dates is silly and childish. Every sophisticated woman has many admirers and is not dominated by one man. He has no confidence in his own ability to hold your attention or he would not be so insistent on being the only duck in the puddle. Your mother’s advice is very sound and you would do well to take it.

Old Tapestries Woven by Europe’s Guilds Form Display at H. Lieber’s Aubusson Specimen, 'Alexander in Combat/ Among Most Interesting; Some Made in Sixteenth Century. BY HELEN LINDSAY TAPESTRIES done in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries arrived this week at H. Lieber’s, and have been hung in the front gallery on the third floor. They represent the work of guilds in various European countries, where generations of entire families have been employed for centuries in the weaving of these pieces. A number of the tapestries shown are museum pieces, suitable for large walls, while others are smaller, intended for hanging in homes. All show the intricate art of the old guild. Among the most interesting of the pieces is an Aubusson tapestry, “Alexander in Combat.” It shows the famous war-

rior mounted on his equally famous horse, surrounded by armed warriors, some of whom have fallen into the sea in the foreground. The tapestry recalls a story which the Persians tell of Alexander’s invasion of their country. The horse which he rode in combat was a huge wild animal, its head so unusually shaped that it was called “Cow's Head.” When Alexander was only a boy, his father, Phillip, and his warriers were attempting to tame the horse. None were able to ride the animal. The boy sprang forward, and begged to be allowed to try his skill. Phillip was angry at the presumptious attitude of the boy. He consented to the trial, but warned Alexander if he were unable to ride the horse, he should pay with his life for his arrogance. Alexander had watched the attempts of his father’s soldiers. He carefully studied the

sun, and mounted the huge horse so that the shadow would fall behind them. Using this simple bit of strategy, he was successful in his attempt at horsemanship, and the huge horse was given him for his own. n u an u tt Met. Threat With Threat WHEN Alexander invaded Persia, he spread disaster in his wake. One tribe, that known as the Yorgi, planned his downfall. Stealthily, while Alexander and his warriors slept, they stole the famous horse, and took it to their own camp. Then they sent word to Alexander that they w’ould kill the horse, which they knew was his great pride, unless he left their country unharmed. Alexander was not to be bluffed. He sent a message to the tribesmen that they might kill the horse, but that he would kill their families, and destroy their villages if the horse w T as not returned to him. The horse w'as returned, and Alexander left the country. Other tapestries which will interest connoisseurs include an eighteenth century Royal Aubusson, showing a man leaving on a hunt wdth his huge dog. It is a large piece, w'ith beautiful coloring in the dense foliage in the forest and landscape. Another is a Brussels Rennaisance tapestry, also a hunting scene, “The Hare Hunt.” This dates from the sixteenth century. From the late seventeenth century is another, a Gobelin, representing “Spring.” The goddesses of Parnass are gathered in *the foreground, holding baskets and garlands of flowers. In the background groups of men and women are seen dancing. # # Dorothy Gray Experts Advise on Makeup FOUR basic rules are set out in the suggestions for make-up in the Dorothy Gray salons. They are as follows: Eyelids are subtly shadowed: cheeks are sparingly rouged; lips are frankly rouged, and powder exactly matches the skin. Only three steps are necessary, according to the Dorothy Gray ex- ' perts, for correct makeup. First, the foundation preparation, which is intended to make powder and rouge go on smoothly and cling; second, rouge and lipstick exactly matched, and third, powder matched to skin. At the toilet goods department of L. S. Ayres & Cos., small packages are ensembled, giving the correct preparations for facials, as suggested in large salons.

A Woman’s Viewpoint

B* MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

NOW and then some man, startled by a sense of what is going on, sends in a blast about the dangers of matriarchy. From all he says, I gather he regards further feminine progress as deplorable and no doubt he has many sympathizers. But why not soothe our suspicions by looking fearsome facts in the face? Might it not be possible that a matriarchy would prove a happy solution of some of our problems? The term, defined literally, signifies “rule by the mother.” It need not mean, nor did it ever mean, the dominion of one sex over the other. Certainly in those primitive states where matriarchy was the rule, men were not suppressed inferiors, but both sexes enjoyed an enviable equality. Property and names handed , down through the maternal line would not be conducive to revolution, but might instead be thoroughly compatible with common sense. As conditions now exist, there are a good many fathers who are not quite sure they have sired their heirs, as certain famous court cases testify. This state of mind would not be posible in any system where matriarchy was the accepted rule. Mothers can not evade responsibility for the physical fact of their children's existence. And so far as names are concerned—what difference would it make in the long run whether they were taken from the paternal or the maternal side of the house? Custom only has been dictator about that. We are told repeatedly that women now own more than half the wealth of the country; that they represent the major buying power of the nation; that life insurance and legacies come eventually and inevitably into their hands. Why not, then, avoid the confusion and effort by giving them this power in the first place? It is a well-known fact, too, that many men evade their creditors by the simple expedient of deeding their property to their wives,

so that national honor would also be served by holding women responsible for family debts. Mother love is the strongest, the mast fundamental form of sentiment, far more fundamental in fact than love between the sexes. It is the basis of all life. Regarded from such a point of view, a matriarchal society agrees with all biological facts and is therefore a sane and sensible arrangement. Alpha chapter, Theta Kappa Tail sorority, will entertain with a lawn social tomorrow night at New York and Bradley streets.
