Society Folk Busied With Three Fetes Civic Theater, Highland and Lambs Clubs Set Entertainment. BY BEATRICE BURGAS Ttmr, Unman Paga Editor breathless—anticipating Saturday night. How are we to keep account of everyone, darting from cocktail parties to dinners, to the Civic theater, and on to the Highland Golf and Country Club circus ball, or to the Little Lambs' frolic at the Columbia Club? How
are you to choose between the con- : a (ircus party and the entertainment of the Gay Nineties singing school which Mr. and Mrs. Paul Matthews have been rehearsing for the Lambs’ floor show? It's a "draw straws” situation you have

Manners and Morals
Jane Jordan will help tou to think out your problems. Put your case in a letter today and read your answer in a few days. Dear Jane Jordan—l was left a widow when very young with a baby girl to support. Naturally I had to leave her with others as I was away all day earning our living. I was
very successful and we have had all we needed. When my daughter was 12 I married a wonderful man who has been more than a father to my girl. I had, and still have, my mother and my sister's children to look after, and can not resign my position. I can not
n
Jane Jordan
ask my husband to shoulder this load. His salary would not stretch that far. My daughter has graduated from high school. I wanted her to post-graduate this year and enter college next year, but she has no interest whatsoever in doing so. I have tried to interest her in music, in a business course, in caring for the home, but she takes no interest in anything. I have to employ a housekeeper. I have tried to get her to look after the home and would pay her for it, but when I come home tired out I have to do the housework myself. She simply leaves everything where it drops. She loves clothes, but won’t attempt to sew. I’ve tried to get her to take swimming, dancing, tennis lessons, ride a bicycle, anything to build her up physically and occupy her time, but fail in everything I try. She is not strong but the doctor says there is nothing w’rong organically, she merely needs exercise and a different mode of living. She will not eat the foods he tells her, take the tonic or exercise he advises. She is a good girl. She never goes out at night unless I say she may. She always lets me know where she is going. She never remains out after the hour I set. She does not drink or smoke; she has high ideals as to morals; she would make a wonderful woman if only we could find her niche in life. When I talk to her about what she is going to make out of her life, she takes the ettitude that she is a burden although nothing has been said to make her feel that way. Her stepfather and I can not live forever and it worries me to think what would become of so helpless, so indifferent, so unprepared-for-life a young girl as she is. She is 18, as old as I w’as when I married, and
BY JANE JORDAN
surely she is old enough to take an interest in something. If your idea on the subject helps me I’ll be very appreciative. PUZZLED. Answer—Any girl who has a superior and efficient mother is confronted with the task of keeping up wdth her. The very fact that you are so adequate, tends to make the people around you dependent. Your daughter's obedience is indicative of the high regard in which you are held. It is notew’orthy that very few sons of famous men ever equal the father's record, for the brilliance of the parent discourages the child. The parent, feeling the child's inadequacy, tends to push it into the stream of life, but it is like trying to push a kitten over the edge of the bath tub. If you were incapacitated by illness or accident your daughter might rise to the occasion w’ith amazing energy. Os, if she should fall in love and get married, the stimulus of being the bass of her ow’n establishment might furnish the incentive which is lacking. Os course, you can’t feign an illness or produce a husband to stir her latent aggressive instincts, but you might try deferring to hqr judgment in minor matters to build up a feeling of superiority in her. You could pretend indecision about your clothes and ask her to make yor selections, inferring thereby that her taste is better than yours. Begin gradually to lean on your daughter, but do not make your early requests too hard. Make them easy and simple of execution, like ordering the dinner one night because you've run out of ideas. In this W’ay you help to diminish the contrast between your efficiency and her lack of it. It goes without saying that her smallest success should be lavishly praised and her failures tactfully overlooked. Her timid ego needs constant encouragement to keep it from retreating from tasks which she is sure she can not execute with her mother’s skill. When she says she is a burden she only is trying to keep you in the dominant position by stressing her helplessness. It would be better if she defied you than to be so supine. Comments from a person who does not know the girl are pure guess work. I should like to know if she is pretty or homely, if she likes boys or girls best, if she can make friends and hold them. Apparently she has retired into a life of fantasy to succeed in dreams instead of in fact. An expert psychiatrist could discover these facts better than I.

THE'INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Problems of Living Made Study Today Club Women of Indiana Hear Official of National Body. BY ELIZABETH CARR Economic, social and civic problems challenging the modern world are the concern of clubwomen as evidenced by talks today at the Claypool by Mrs. Laura Waples McMullen, New York, Anthony Lehr.er and Ralph F. Gates, Columbia City. The speakers outlined their theories to the assembly of the Indiana Federation of Women's Clubs, meeting in forty-fifth annual convention, with a record attendance of 555. Mrs. McMullen, international relations chairman of the General Federation of Women’s Club, surveyed the "world today” as being in a sorry state. "The situation in Germany is not encouraging; Fascism has failed in Italy. Will there be war in Yugoslavia? I don't think so; a federated country eventually may evolve. Is the present Victory of government permanent in Spain? Not unless it finds a solution for economic problems.” No country has found the solution, Mrs. McMullen said, adding: "Above all, the flags flies the economic flag.” Economic Order 3lcnaccd America, Mrs. McMullen defined as a laboratory and experiments are an attempt to save democracy. "Great inequality of income is dangerous to our economic order, for dividends depend upon the purchasing power of the masses,” she said. In defining the philosophy of competition, Mr. Lehner of the Indiana Farm Bureau Co-operative Association, predicted that social and economic uncertainty, and finally fear of tomorrow and warfare, would result from the old idea of survival of the fittest. As opposed to the competitive theory, Mr. Lehner cited the co-operative philosophy as practiced in some Scandinavian countries. Through this law of Christianity with its human values, the economic system might bring service rather than profit, and mutual understanding which would result in peace and happiness tomorrow. Group Holds Election The demands of citizenship were outlined as the challenge today by Mr. Gates, past state commander of the American Legion. Epsilon Sigma Omicron. a federation group, elected Mrs. William H. Polk, president; Mrs. Fred Bell, Rushville, treasurer ,and Mrs. Floyd T. Jones, Lafayette, trustee. Fortyone received diplomas from the sorority and Mrs. W. D. Keenan and Mrs. Clara Nichols, LaFontaine, are eligible for guards. A memorial service for Mrs. G. W. Seaton, was held at the luncheon with Mrs. R. J. Harbour, presiding. Addition of thir-ty-five new junior clubs was announced by Mrs. Azro Moss, Orleans. Convention will close tonight with a federation banquet when new officers will be introduced to delegates. Asa child, Mrs. Bertita Leonarz Harding collected the material for her novel, "Phantom Crown,” unconsciously, and as she grew up, it was done consciously, she explained last night at the fine arts dinner. "You see,” Mrs. Harding confessed about the inspiration back of her new novel of Maximilian and Carlota of Mexico, “I grew up in the shadow of the Chapultepec castle in Mexico City and from my nursery window I could see the castle.” Immediately following the lecture, Mrs. Harding left for the east to attend the "Book Fair” which is being held this week in Detroit, Cleveland and Pittsburgh and to meet with such interesting personages as Alexander Woolcott and Irina Skariatina. Mrs. Edward A. Hicks, Cambridge City, federation president, presided, and Dr. Jean S. Milner pronounced the innovation. Mrs. Jane Johnson Burroughs directed a musical program preceding Mrs. Harding’s talk. The assembly voted against soliciting political advertisements or advertisements connected in any way with the sale of liquors. More than 400 additional members for the general federation in the last year were reported by Mrs. Allan S. Courtney, Ft. Wayne, with the admission of seventy new clubs to the federation since the 1933 convention. Mrs. William I. Ellison, chairman of the Thirteenth district, with eight new clubs, received the $5 prize offered by Mrs. George W. Jacqua, Winchester, for the district with the most clubs of all classes; Mrs. J. W. Kirkpatrick, with four new clubs, received $5 as the county winner. Mrs. B. F. Summey, Kosciusko county,, and Mrs. Kirkpatrick received gavels for county awards.

Former NRA Chief’s Aid Stresses Importance of Women in Economic Field Miss Frances Robinson, Who Was Secretary, to General Hugh S. Johnson, States Feminine Buyers Predominate. BY HELEN LINDSAY EIGHTY-FIVE per cent of American spending is done by women, and the responsibility of being the nation’s purchasing agent lies in their hands Miss Frances Robinson, secretary to General Hugh S. Johnson, former NRA administrator, told women in a special business womans fashion show recently in New York. Reports of Miss Robinson's address show that she has faith in the opportunity of women to do much in adjustment of the new economic order. Miss Robinson stressed the advantages which she feels NRA has
given women in business, and expressed the belief that release from the depression rests almost entirely in the hands of women, and in intelligent buying by them. Special messages to stenographers and secretaries in her audience of 500 women were given by the speaker. The three important qualities which she felt they should have were tact, discrimination and ability to understand applicants for interviews. "Women can not afford to be emotional in business,” she said. "We must keep in touch with social and economic problems, be alert to the vital questions of the day, and move forward with the conviction that in our triple role, as workers, homemakers and buyers, we can help to bring about a more abundant life
for every inhabitant of the United States.” Miss Robinson described what she considers the appropriate costumes lor working women in offices. "Her clothes should be simple, but they must be carefully selected.’ she said. "A stenographer does not have to come to an office in flat heeled shoes and thick glasses, but she should be well groomed, have poise and make a good appearance.” Miss Robinson, probably one of the best known secretaries in the United States today, was dressed entirely in black, relieved only by a corsage of orchids. She returned to Washington from New York, where she came to attend the National Business show, by airplane. During the afternoon, preceding Miss Robinson's speech, a parade of fashions suitable for the American business woman was held. a a a a a a Fashion to Feel Influence of Royal Nuptials THE royal wedding of the Princess Marina to Prince George of England will have a definite effect on the styles of women all over the world, Mary Pickens, national president of the Fashion Group, said at a recent fashion meeting in Cleveland. Miss Pickens, who is instructor in home economics at Columbia university, said that this influence already is being shown in designs of Paris couturiers. She expressed a belief that motion picture fashions are having a greater influence than ever before on American women's dress. Miss Pickens recently returned from a visit to Hollywood, where she reviewed costumes designed for various moving picture celebrities. a a a a a a Novelties Enliven Style Role of Lace LACE continues to be a favored medium of design among Paris designers, recent fashion reports show. Many new novelties have been noted in the lace designs made for the current fashions. One of these, just introduced this season, is Starella, which is made on a Chantilly or fantasy tulle ground, with paillettes woven into the material. The advantage of this lace is in that the paillettes can not catch on objects and be torn off. Anew beauty is added to the pattern by the luminous discs. Mainbochcr has shown a preference for gold paillettes in black Chantilly lace, and Rochas has designed a dinner dress in black with multi-colored paillettes. The Rochas gown is known as "Confetti,” and has a long voluminous skirt over a taffeta petticoat, worn with a loose tailored jacket with long sleeves. Pale pink lace, with irridescent paillettes, has been used in an evening gown designed by Chanel. Cellophane threads have been used this season in the making of lace, to outline and emphasize patterns. These threads are put in by ha/id, and gives a crispness to the material that suggests silhouettes and treatments not usually associated with lace gowns.
