Black and White Go Youthful

BY GERTRUDE BAILEY IF you can take your black dresses straight, without one enlivening bit of color or one softening detail, you ought to run for a movie test, for it takes flawless femininity to shoulder stark simplicity. Most of us are sufficiently conscious of our imperfections to api preciate clothes that do something i for us without distorting the ongi- | nal meaning of good taste.

fabric choices for the first urban fall costume. a a a TODAY’S sketch offers conclusive proof that black and white is by no means monopolized by sophisticated matrons, though it is a first choice with them. Here are youthful lines, expressed in a two-piece effect daytime frock that has a gilet of white matelasse crepe, shirred at the neckline, and outlined by jabot type pleatings of the black alpaca. Identical pleatings run around the wrists, almost Victorian, and stop short at the sides of the long, straight sleeves. One of the more feminine interpretations of a sophisticated contrast for you who admire severe tailoring on others than yourself. a a a THERE are two accessory cues to be followed, first, for street, and second, for afternoon and cocktail hour occasions. The first one implies restraint in the choice of black accessories—perhaps a black felt hat, black kid shoes and purse, and short black kid gloves. When you want to look more important don one of the new turbans with a tiny veil, black suede pumps and bag, and white doeskin gloves.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Understand yourself! It's the first law of intelligent behavior. If you need help in tracing your motives to their source, put your case before Jane Jordan for analysis. Dear Jane Jordan—l am 35 and have been married fourteen years. I’m desperately in love with my husband and he loves me. But he has been out of work for three

years. We have two beautiful children under 12. I have a distant relative in the east who is a writer and wealthy. She knows that my one desire is to have money and careers for my children. Apparently I never can have these things

through their father. She wants me to get a divorce and come to her and marry a professional man whom I met while visiting her. He is all that is grand in a man. He never has been married, is quiet and unassuming, old-fashioned in ideas, and would make a peach of a husband. But I know I never, never could fall in love with him. This man has told my relative that he cares for me but can not tell me now. He is waiting for me to see that I can’t live on love. He treats me with regard and respect and writes every two or three weeks and asks about the children. He insists on our coming on another visit. He is cultured and kind. If I do as my relative says, I can do all the big things in life that I have dreamed of so long. I can doctor the poor and have a beautiful home and clothes, and travel here and there. Now I'm in poverty and sickness and always will be unless some miracle happens. I love to help others and sometimes I believe that would take the place of the love I now have in my life. Should I give up love for what I could do for God and humanity? Should I forgit marriage laws and plunge into this for my children's sake and for the others whom I am longing to help? It would break my husband's heart as he would not consider that I did it for the children and others who need help. Will you advise me? SINCERE. Answer—Your letter shows an ingenious attempt to find noble motives for an ignoble wish. It is a trick universally employed by human beings to put their own shortcomings in a better light and to still the accusing voice of conscience. Psychologists have a name for it: Rationalization.

Hats Take Every Form

COOLIE, beret, breton? Derby, fedora, turban? Take your pick, mesdames, for all are smart, and whichever one is best for you is your hat. That is the grand thing about this particular season. There are enough millinery fashions to go around. No more woes because a turban is cruel to your profile. But a hat that has a wide brim on one side. Don’t sigh if yo lr forehead isn’t as smooth as alabaster. Buy a hat that covers it. That is the first cry of the new hats. They are made to flatter you. There is nothing hard to wear in any of then.. They all have perfect lines that will be a joy when you try them on. The shallow crowns in hats continue. There will be no protest against this, if we know our fashions. For most women enjoy the youthful piquancy that these tiny little affairs give. And they are comfortable on the head. No one need to worry that they will come tumbling down at the first whisper of a wind. Not since

You are in a tough situation and you wish to escape, not by laborious personal effort, but by the fairy tale route. Rescue by a sort of fairy godfather would not put you to the inconvenience of battling unpleasant reality. You plan to atone for your cowardly desertion by showering material advantages on your children and helping the poor, but your reasoning is faulty. You do not reckon with the phychological damage done to your children by discarding a father whom they love. It is the experience of divorced women who checked out their husbands for far better reasons than you have, that their children idealize the absent parent and never quite forgive the mother for leaving him. Many of them develop serious personality disorders, particularly around puberty, and are apparently immune to their mother's influence. Money does not console them for the emotional wrench. Again the value of your plan to help the poor is open to question. The only real way to help others is by releasing their energies and

they all have tiny, almost invisible, elastic bands to tuck under your curls to keep them in place. There is much to be said in favor of the fabrics of the new season. There has been a decided return of “body” hats. By this is meant felt, velour and soleil. These are all sturdy materials that can brave the winter elements most successfully. They are rich and fine looking and their return is sure of a big welcome.

LUNCHEON GIVEN FOR BRIDE-TO-BE Mrs. Ross Hill entertained with a luncheon today at her home, 5241 Washington boulevard, in honor of Miss Marthalou Schoener, whose marriage to Richard Hill will take place Sept. 8.

engaging them in useful occupations. Your idea of helping by spending money which you did not earn may give you a pleasant sense of power, but it car not be considered as a serious social contribution. The only hope you have as a character is to develop the strength to meet your difficulties one by one without wasting your energies in dreaming of fanciful escapes. a a tt Dear Jane Jordan—l offer my experience in the hope that it will make others on the brink of unhappiness put a little thought into what they do. I was married to a man whom I now realize was far better than the average, for four years. The first year we were ever so happy. Then my husband started to drink, not steadily, but on Saturday evening when he was out with friends. As I look back, this was not the worst he could do. However, it made me angry and then I would nag him. The upshot was that I got a divorce. As I see it now I would do anything to have him back. It is too late for it has been two years since my divorce, but I can not stop thinking of him. My advice to couples who are thinking of divorce is not to be too hasty. It may appear right at the time, but there are always two sides to a question. LONESOME. Answer —A forlorn hankering for what might-have-been is doubly painful when honesty compels us to admit that we have no one to thank but ourselves.

School Garb Emphasizes Simplicity; Co-Eds Serve as Models at Block Store’s Style Show. BY ELIZABETH CARR Casualness and a smart simplicity in fashions await the 1934 college girl for her activities which take her from exams to campus dances with alarming rapidity. College clothes as chosen by college girls were paraded informally yesterday afternoon on the second floor of the William H. Block Company store. It’s the details that count —the slim, straight lines; bright, rich colors; ingenious trimmings and appropriate accessories. Classrooms will be full of two-piece jersey outfits with a riotous plaid, check or mixed* design top; ribbed knit sweater suits and bright wool dresses. A grass green wool is set off with a brown velveteen Buster Brown bow and small velvet buttons; a splash of color on a brown knit outfit is the set-in orange sleeves and orange yoke, and powder blue tassels are the only relief on a maroon red ribbed sweater suit with plain knit yoke. Sweater Sets Noted Twin sweater sets in subtle shade blendings are worn over plain skirts with the ever popular suede jacket. Sports suits in mixed tweed are furtrimmed or plain and the Inside jacket coat may be double-breasted or designed as a vest. A maroon mixed four-piece suit is worn with a maroon jersey inside sweater and an extra jersey skirt goes along for good measure. Creased crown felts are worn at a jaunty angle and rough grain unsraffable oxfords with zipper and buckles add to the sturdiness of footwear. One outfit in dark blue wool with a double-breasted vest is topped with a blue and white plaid seven-eighth swagger coat. Metallic threads run riot through wools and crepes which will be worn with dressier accessories for street and afternoon occasions. A green silk has an ingeniously tucked top, and a red, yellow and green plaid velvet collar falls in loose folds at the neck of a black crepe. Metallic thread in gold runs in diagonal pattern through green crepe, which is buttoned down the shoulders with small gold buttons and gold thread brightens a gray wool. Jackets and scarfs are detachable, and when removed reveal metallic and lame blouses or vestee. Under a dusty rose lame jacket Is worn a black crepe dress with bib effect of matching rose. Gay velvets and silks are shown at the necks of street frocks. Fur Trims Coats Coats have gone luxurious with fur piled high. A Forstmann coat in brown with blue fox collar boasts a matching fur muff. Simplicity of design sets off the elegance of velvet, satin and crepe evening gowns. A gold lame is designed with a high neck, slit to the waistline in back and sweeping to the floor. Brownvfelvet and lame are combined in a jacket shirtwaist outfit and a cobalt blue uncut velvet gown in daring cut has no trimming. A blue transparent velvet bow on a raspberry crepe outfit may be worn at the neck of the seveneighths coat or snapped on the neck of the evening gown whose blue velvet shoulder straps form a low decolletage in black. Under the direction of Miss Edith Evans, stylist, outfits were modeled by the following representatives from Indiana colleges and universities: Miss Mary Elizabeth Search. Butler; Miss Gertrude Hardesty, St. Mary-of-the-Woods; Miss Mary Martha Hockensmith, Butler; Miss Alice Jane Brownlee, Butler; Miss Jean Alice Shaver. De Pauw; Miss Elsinore Funk, Indiana; Miss Betty Jeanne Davis, Butler; Miss Mary Adeline Clauser, selected by Hoagia Carmichael as a beauty queen at Indiana; Miss Gene Smith, Butler; Miss Jean Coler, De Pauw, assisted by Miss Alma May Goodnow and Mrs. Jack Thomas, Block models.
