Gertrude Stein to Speak in City Under Auspices of Contemporary Club Author With Bizarre Style of Writing Will Be Heard Saturday Night at Herron Art Institute. By BEATRICE BIRGAN Tirim Wnmin'i Parc Editor GERTRUDE Stem with her bizarre ideas of literary style for several years has been one of the most talked of writers; she has had cliques of admirers as well as critics who called her a literary curiosity. Her a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose” is art to some and mere tomfoolery to others. As we recall all this controversy, we are convinced that it is appropriate for the Contemporary Club to bring her here to speak Saturday night at the John Herron Art Institute. For all these 44 years of existence,

it has been the club's purpose to bring to Indianapolis the outstanding speakers of the time. Its members have listened to lectures with open mfnds but critically and often before the speaker left the platform he had had questions put to him of which he had never thought. After Herman C. Wolff, president, wrote to Miss Stein he received her repiy requesting that if she came she should be permitted to see Foster Hall and to meet Booth Tarkington. J K Lilly wil! welcome the visitor, but Mr. Tarkington will be absent from the city. Most of Indianapolis' distinguished intellectual leaders have belonged to the Contemporary Club. Mrs. May Wright Sewall. founder and head of the Girls’ Classical School, was one of the moving spirits of the club, which resulted from a meeting of friends at her home. In those days there were no Town Halls to bring distin-

Miss Burgan

guished lecturers to the smaller cities. Mrs. Sewall became the fi~st president, and during the first World’s Fair in Chicago in 1893 many of the well-known foreign visitors were invited to address the club Capt. Mangus Anderson, Norway; Mrs. Florence Fenwick Miller, London, and the Rev. Protap Chunder Mozoomdar. Calcutta, India, were among them. Many of the early members remember Mr. Mozoomdar, because of the lines published about him in The New York Sun. Upon his arrival in New York the paper welcomed him with •'Protap Chunder Mozoomdr How we wonder what you are? The expression followed him throughout the country.

The history published of the club on its fortieth anniversary records as early speakers Henry Watterson, Charles Dudley Warner, William Dean Howells, Edward Everett Hale, Andrew D White, Woodrow Wilson. William Winter. William Watson, Henry James, Alfred Noyes, John Masefield. John Drinkwater, St. John Ervin and Hugh Walpole. Meredith Nicholson was one of the early presidents, as were Albert G. Porter, one time Governor of Indiana; William Fishback, John L. Griffith, former United States ambassador to England; Judge Albert Anderson, Lucius B. Swift and Miss Katharine Merrill. From time to time the membership limit has varied. Today 450 members attend the meetings, which are limited to members except on the one guest meeting a year. This year Mr Wolff made a survey of the club members’ interests. He sent cards seeking their preferences of subjects from a list of 21. The answers revealed that members were most interested in domestic and internal affairs, with foreign affairs a second choice. Travel and discovery subjects preceded exploration topics in the members’ preferences. The attendance varies, Mr. Wolff observed, according to the type of subject of the speaker. The first speaker this year was Carveth Wells, explorer, whose stories were of the "truth is stranger than fiction” variety. Leading the club with Mr. Wolff are Gilbert J. Hurty, first vice president; Mrs. Donald Jameson, second vice president; Miss Edna Levey, third vice president; Herman W. Kothe. secretary-, and Irving Fauvre. treasurer. Mr. and Mrs. William Ball. Muncie. who will be week-end guests of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert M. Woollen, will dine at the Woollen home with other guests before going to the lecture. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Adams, Ferdinand Schaefer and Miss Dorothy Merrill will be the Woollens’ guests. Mrs. Ball has had as her guest her sister, Mrs. Alvin Owsley, and Mr. Owsley, who is employed in diplomatic duties abroad. The Owsleys will visit in Dallas. Tex., their home, after they leave Muncie. Dinner Arranged Misses Nina Brown. Joan Metzger. Prudence Brown and Jane Drake have issued invitations for a progressive dinner to be held Dec. 23.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Jane Jordan is a local woman employed by The Times to study your problems and help you to get a more intelligent grasp of your situation. Dear Jane Jordan—Eight months ago my wife left me and has since obtained a divorce. I realize that I was not the husband that I should

have been, although I was a very liberal provider and simply worshipped my wife and child. I was not and am not a philanderer. My only fault was that I was too irritable and too easily provoked into a quarrel. Since she has been away from me I have tried time

after time to induce her to return, remarry and start all anew, which she says she will do, maybe in a year or two. I am positive in my own mind that she cares for me and that if she doesn’t give me another trial in a much shorter time than a year or two she will some day regret it very, very much. I am afraid that she will wait too long. Perhaps I am too impatient. Maybe she isn’t broad-minded enough to see that all the sorrow and worry I live in day after day will eventually destroy my love for her. All that will be left will be just a memory. All

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

the reality will have slipped away. I want to avoid this because of the child. So what can I do? What should she do? • R. L. A. Answer—Your wife probably finds you a great deal more satisfactory as a lover than a husband. Your conduct is proof of the statement that to appreciate something you must lose it. You did not trouble yourself to woo the woman until you lost her. Now what she feels is fear that if she marries you again she simply will be faced with the same old problem of an unpleasant husband. Can you blame her for hesitating? In every marriage there is a tendency for the partners to let down and neglect the ordinary courtesies which make living more graceful. “I am married to her now. I can safely neglect her.” In courtship the opposite is true. Each strives to put his best foot fc -emost and to repress that part ol the personality which is irritatir y to the beloved. /our cue is to study the causes of your own irritability. Why were you unable to bear up under the pin pricks of existence? Every home is at times the theater of the disagreeable. Why did you stress unhappy situations instead of seeking compensations? To find the answer you w.U have to trace your behavior beck to the nursery. You must hive been the sort of child who flung tantrums when it was crossed. It is almost an axiom that the unsuccessful husband was spoil ed in the cradle. Your wife probably sees what you do not see: That habits of long standing are not corrected in eight months. What assurance have you given her that you are bent on re-educating your own character? Promises are rather futile unless backed up by specific performance. Your impatience with your wife’s natural doubts, and your tendency to blame her, rather than yourself, for prolonging your separation is discouraging. non Dear Jane Jordan—l have been keeping company with a lady for quite a while. We both are of middle age, both of us have made failures in marriage. She has all the qualifications that should be asked of a woman. She had a son and it seems like all she had was wrapped up in him. She lost him a few' years ago and at times she says that took all the love away that she ever had. Do you think that she could be relied upon or that anything could be done to keep her from taking this so seriously? MIDDLE AGE. Answer—l don’t know. It depends upon how adjustable she is Some people have an affinity for the terrible and can not shake off an experience which gives them pain. It is a dreadful thing to lose a beloved son. But it is much wiser to seek compensations for that which is lost than to dwell forever upon th(; tragedy. Persuade the lady, if you can. not to repudiate that w’hich can be enjoyed simply because she has passed through a cruel ordeal. Others have passed through similar experiences without taking the unhealthy attitude that all is lost.

Officers will be elected and members will attend the Indiana Bar Association banquet in the Riley room. Mrs. Sexton Speaks * Organization” w-as discussed by Mrs Timothy P.

All Nations Declared on Equal Basis Department Club Hears Phyllis Bottome, World Traveler. BY ELIZABETH CARR ‘‘There is no superior or inferior nation —they are merely different, as are members of a family.” is the opinion of Miss Phyllis Bottome. student of psychology, author and World War relief worker. The speaker, Mrs. E. Forbes Dennis in private life, told members and guests of the Woman's Department Club yesterday of “National Character Traits” in the seven countries in which she has lived. Mrs. R. O. McAlexander, club president, introduced the speaker, w-ho with her husband, Captam Dennis, will go next to Cleveland, where Miss Bottome will make several talks. , “There are no real strangers any more; such great gains are made through the alteration of space,” which, in Miss Bottome’s opinion, may bring peace. “We must make the greatest change from wolf to beaver—to build, not to tear down. We travelers must carry around a tonic of friendship, which, when injected into foreign nations, will bring about good will. We must connect,” she pleaded. “There is no excuse for mass murder engineered by gangsters, commonly known as war. Organization was made for man, and not man for organization. The old technique of living is false. We need a deeper sense of human values, and if we get the right human values, we can afford the best organization in the world.” Found America Changed Miss Bottome, of English descent, spent several years of her childhood in America, but upon returning to this country some years later confessed she found it greatly changed. She described it as more mature, more fierce, more stimulating than ever, an America of skyscrapers and of tension. Although it took her several months to adjust herself to American life, it took her several years to readjust herself to her own island people. “Island people are shy, independent, suspicious, arrogant and courageous,” she explained, “and the island over-crowded and permeated with class feeling, with chaff and silence their two main weapons. “If I had no money at all, I would rather live in England of in Austria than in any of the seven countries in which I have lived.” In England, she would go to a clergyman for moral or financial aid, and in Austria to the peasants for similar aid. Neither, in the speaker’s opinion, has the “time sense” and both take Christian charity seriously. In Switzerland, Miss Bottome found cleanliness, honesty, kindness to the helpless, an efficient school system, and military training. “The Swiss learn how to defend themselves as soldiers. If we can defend ourselves, we do not invite attack.” French Lack Co-Operation The romantic years of the author were spent in Italy, where she found a vivid, sympathetic race, with a strange courage, where quickness of wit counts. Strangers find it difficult to become acquainted in France, as the people are hostile because of fear of ridicule, the speaker explained. Their two greater characteristics were defined as “a fierce self-respect and loyalty to accepted obligations, and their greatest fault, their lack of co-oper-ation.” “While France lacks co-operation, Germany is too co-operative; to the point of complete submission. Austria is not very practical, we learn, but it has safeguarded culture in Europe, and it has the characteristics of disinterest in affairs of others.” Mrs. A. S. Ayres, Mrs. Alvin Coate and Mrs. W. C. Smith were hostesses yesterday for the meeting with Mrs. E. May Hahn and Mrs. H. B. Burnet pouring at a tea following the talk. Mrs. H. A. Shideler and her committee were in charge of the tea and Mrs. W. P. Morton of decorations.

Box Lines Distinguish Coats Duchess of Kent Will Wear During Trip Molyneux Designed Wardrobe to Be Seen Along the Riviera and Other Pleasure ' Centers of Europe. BY HELEN LINDSAY WHEN the Duke and Duchess of Kent leave the south of England to continue their honeymoon along the Riviera, and in other beauty spots of continental Europe, the wardobe of the duchess will be as interesting to the feminine world as we-.e the detail of her clothing before the wedding. Noticeable in the designs of these costumes are the box lines of the coats created by Molyneux for the duchess. Though these coats vary in length from hip to three-quarter, practically all are designed in this silhouette. Fur and velvet linings are featured in the coats,

lending a novel note to the ensembles. Among the custumes is a sports suit in which brown and yellow have been combined. The skirt is a mixture of yellow and brown in knitted woolen, and is worn with a biouse of yellow crepe. With this is a coat of brown jersey which is hip-length, in straight jacket style, made with wide revers and pockets. For afternoon wear, the duchess will be seen in a black heavy ribbed crepon fabric. The collar is unusual, standing up around the back of the neck, and tying with an orange velvet tie. The sleeves, which are bell shaped, are fringed at the bottom, as is the hemline of the skirt, which shows a slash at the left side. The traveling costume of the duchess is a loosely woven linen and wood tweed, the coat entirely lined with ocelot, which also forms the collar and revers.

A tailored hostess gown which is included in the wardrobe is of double-faced lame, gold and silver. The silver shows in the sleeve facings, which are deep and full, and in the panel fronts. The coat to this hostess gown is posed over a fitted gown of banana satin, and is slit at the side back to reveal the silver facing and the long slip which is worn beneath. tt tt tt tt tt tt Christmas Still Calls for Candij ' CANDY will play an important role in Christmas festivities this year, just as it has in previous years. Not only will it make an acceptable Christmas gift, but it will add to the menus which will be prepared for the holiday season. One of the most unusual recipes for the Christmas dinner is for a sherry marshmallow cocktail. To make it, core and dice three red apples, but do not peel. Cut one-half pound grapes in halves and seed. Then carefully mix apples, grapes, one cup crushed pineapple, and 16 marshmallows which have been cut in quarters. Place in sherbet glasses, and cover with small quantity of sherry. Marshmallows also are suggested for use in a salad for the Christmas dinner, to be served with roast goose or other meat courses. Dip marshmallows in beaten egg, then in fine crumbs. Fry in deep fat for one minute. Set each marshmallow on a ring of canned pineapple, delicately browned in butter. For Christmas night guests, or around the holiday bridge table, chocolate toasts may be served. These are made by melting chocolate covered peppermints over boiling water, and spreading on unsalted crackers. The crackers then are sprinkled with cocoanut or nut meats, and browned under a broiler, with the heat turned low. tt tt tt tt tt tt Licorice Remains Popular MANY of the candies which we associate with childhood are still the favorites of adults. Candy salesmen say that licorice is one of the outstanding favorite confections of children and adults. It comes in three flavors; plain licorice, licorice with anise added, and flavored with anise alone. Licorice itself is not black, but seal brown. Color is added to obtain the desired black. While other candies can be reproduced by cooks in their own homes, licorice confections are made by formulas carefully guarded by candy manufacturers.
