School Gave Inspiration to Art Club Majority of Members of Scribblers Were Orchard Pupils. BY BEATRICE Bl ROAN Titn* Woman i Faff F.ditor CHILDREN who attend Orchard Sch'ol begin early to express their taients because the school curricula is conducive to self expression. Seven of the nine members of the Scribblers Club are former Orchard pupils, and their interest in drawing was aroused at the school.

Last summer five of the girls, now Shortridge High School 5 tudens were members of Turquoise Trail trek to the West, a sister expedition to the Children's Museum prairie trek led by Hillis Howie, orchard school director. Mrs. Donald Jamc on, nr- ther of Patty Jameson. a club member. was one of the

Miss Burgan

leaders of the trek, and she encouraged the girls in their playful caricaturing of each other and sketching of scenes they visited on the trip. When the party visited Taos. N. M„ an artist invited the girls to go sketching with him. He offered them bits of advice in sketching landscapes and from that day on, the girls intensified their efforts in reproducing the scenery. When the girls. Fatty, Susan Gatch, Priscilla Johnson. Jeanette Tarkmgton and Ruth Osborne, returned from their vacation and enrolled in school, they decided to continue their drawing activities together. They invited Marjoie Jean Mueller, Fayette Ann Miller, both former Orchard pupils. Barbara Jean Ehrich and Dorothy Jean Hendrickson to meet with them to form club. Portrait Praised They called themselves the Scribblers because they believed that the work of amateurs like themselves couldn't be of any particular merit. The girls have done some creditable work. Fayette Ann's portrait of Susan has been praised by their parents and friend*, and Ruth has done some outstanding work in water colors, oils and clay. Ruth's father. Clyde Osborne, is a dog fancier and hunter, and her model of a setter's head is the favorite piece of many club members’ work. The furls delight in sketching each other and they are their own severest critics. Members of their families and their pets come in for their share of posing.

Houses Drawn Often the young artists draw imaginary houses, modeled after their ideas of ideal homes and they sketch gardens which they would like as settings for the houses. With pen and pencil they often sketch modern young women of fashion and design their wardrobes. Early in the fall the club met on Tuesday afternoons in Ruth’s studio in the back yard of the Osborne home. The whitewashed walls are hung with sketches made by various members of- the club. Later in the afternoons, the girls decided on some place to go for refreshments. This winter the club has been meeting at members’ homes and j last week they celebrated the holi- j days with a progressive dinner party ' at the homes of Jeannette. Patty. Susan and Ruth. The party ended with dancing at Fayette Anns home. CHAPTER TO MEET WITH MRS. KELLY\ Mrs. Walter C.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KF.NNEY Secretary American Bridge League r\o you know that I really believe there are more points lost on the 150-ace hands than are made? You deal the average player four aces and a few picture cards on the side, and it is a pretty safe bet to say that the contract will get too high. However, bold bidding has taught many players the finer points of the play of the hand. Here's, a hand I watched Miss Helen White, one of the women national champions, play in a rubber game recently. Miss White’s bid of seven no trump may be termed optimistic, but as the reward for a vulnerable grand slam bonus under the present scoring is 2250 points, it was well worth the gamble. When West opened the jack of clubs, it looked as if it would be impassible to make the contract, as West was certainly marked with four clubs and the king of spades by his double. Miss White sized up the hand and could see that, if West held not only the king of spades, but also the queen, she could employ the Vienna Coup squeeze play. So she played the hand as follows: a tt tt WEST'S jack of clubs was won in dummy with the king. Then four rounds of hearts were cashed, a spade being discarded from dummy. West discarding a spade and a diamond. The ace of spades was cashed

next, deliberately setting up* the king and queen in West’s hand. Miss White had to get the ace of spades out of her hand so that she could discard her two small spades on the two diamonds in dummy. The ace of diamonds was played next, followed by the jack, which was overtaken in dummy with the king. On the queen of diamonds, Miss White discarded a spade and West had to let go his queen of spades. Now the ten of diamonds was cashed, the jack of spades being dis* carded by the declarer and West was helpless. If he discarded a club. Miss White’s three clubs would be good. If West discarded the king of spades, this established dummy’s ten of spades for the needed thirteenth trick. (Copyright, 1935. NEA Service, Inc.)

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Have you a personal complaint you would like to jret out of your system? Write a letter to Jane Jordan today and read her answer in this column.

Dear Jane Jordan—l am a married man 38 years old and have a lovely daughter of 16. I am getting tired of my wife because she turned out to be a flat tire. I like to dance and drink and go to wild parties. My wife refuses to go to these places with me. When I go to these places, the women seem to flock about me. askiiig me to dance. I’ll admit I'm a good looker. My wife is terribly jealous of me and looks wild when I come in late. I sure get a thrill out of dancing with pretty girls, especially blonds. I don’t know if this is the right thing for me to do or not and I’d like your opinion. My wife is a good housekeeper and manager and stays home to tend to her own business. I’ve promised her faithfully that I’d never go out to beer parties again, but when I think of all those blonds and pretty girls I can’t resist the temptation. Please advise me. I’m up a stump. HOT STUFF. Answer—l doubt the authenticity of this letter. No human being ever knowingly puts him-

self in a bad light. Many people unconsciously-* reveal the fact that they have somehow contrived to keep an excellent opinion of themselves. Few men complain in public of their wives. In view of what many of them have to put up

yffl Jjjjg k3

Jane Jordan

with their reticence is remarkable. Usually they do their cheating in private without parading their follies before others. My hunch is that this letter was written by the disgruntled wife of the offender. If my guess is correct, we do not have to look far for the reason why this gentleman prefers blonds. tt tt tt Dear Jane Jordan—l am in my teens and have been going with a boy a year my senior for nearly eight months. He has never as yet told me that he loves me, although he has shown all indications. I love him dearly and hate to drift along like this. I have tried in every way possible to show him that I love him. although I do not believe in girls being too bold. As he works in another part of the state, we do not get to see each other mere than once a month but we write regularly. Don't you think tha~ if he is just bashful he would overcome it after we have gone together as long as we have? Isn’t there something I can do to change the order of our friendship? IMPATIENT. Answer—ls this young man ever does get around to propasing I imagine he will mean it. If he is a sober and serious type he is not going to get himself engaged to a girl before he is ready to assume the responsibility for her. Since you’re both in your teens he shows rare judgment in not making grand declarations of permanence for what may easily be only a boy and girl affair. The way you sign your letter reveals your chief fault. You want to settle your whole adult future while you're still in your teens. In this the young man has more sense than you have. I think your friendship is delightful and do not see why you can not enjoy it without being so "hot for certainties.” Dear Jane Jordan—l am a girl of 15, very much in favor with a boy of 19. We have been going together two months but his community friends are always interfering. I believe he listens to these friends too much. Do you think it is right for me to go with him when they tell him not to go with me? Should a girl, if she loves a boy well enough, do anything in the world for him? DIMPLE. Answer—The boy’s interfering

friends ought to be an asset. It's so much fun to do what people tell you not to. The answer to your second question is “Certainly not.” Nobody likes what he secures at too easy a price

City Author Describes Shielded Life of Ease Women of Mexico Enjoy Occupy Secondary Place in Some Degree, But Madonna Worship Exalts Motherhood to Greatest Extent. BY BLRTITA HARPING Author of •'Phantom Crown: Story o f Maximilian and Carlotta of Mexico” WOMEN'S place in Mexico is a gracious subject to ponder—one full of satisfactions and but few complaints if you are a woman. First and last, they are much pampered and flattered by the masterful male. This is very pleasant, because, in being masters, the lords shoulder most of life's burdens. They meet annoyance and send it off its track before it reaches those who should not be annoyed, the women. They monopolize business and the realm of ideas, so that small jeweled hands may squander their money while coy female whimsicality disrupts their best thinking. This holds true in almost all strata of society, even the servant class un which case the jewelry is Czechoslovakian). Yes, women occupy a secondary place so that they may come first. They exploit, and are permitted to exploit, their biological function in life. The Madonna worship persists—men carry on quite madly about prospective fatherhood, legitimate or otherwise. They \hold that maternity makes women wise, beautiful, supreme. It doesn't. It leaves them generally as vague’ and sometimes as silly as it found them, but the tradition of the Fourth Commandment is so deeply rooted that nowhere on earth does motherhood seem to pay higher returns. The devotion and allegiance of a Mexican brood surpasses China's ancestor worship. a a a a a a Prudery Dropped With a Vengeance IN recent years ethics have invaded Mexico. Women of almost monastic upbringing have learned to discard prudery and display their figures in shorts and bathing beach trifles. They do this with a vengeance, as if to make up for years of veiled stuffiness behind grilled balconies of old. Even so, the balcony survives. Quite unexpectedly Mexican women revert to type and. especially during Lent, return to pious seclusion, solemn, faced modesty and inaccessible aloofness. It is a form of coquetry very effective with the easily jaded Latin male. They play golf, tennis, ride horseback and dance if they are rich. If they are poor they congregate in market places and public squares, chatter away the hours, listen to the ballad singers, consume vast quantities of spiced candied fruit and exchange fast repartee with the village dandies. They work at whatever may be their task with infinite patience and absorption. But they will be unaccountable and turn from a task grown dull until caprice brings them back to it. Because of this mental attitude they have not the slightest inclination to vie with men in the political or professional field. Rather do they make great artists, poets and dramatic diseuses. An evening of Spanish recitation by many a school girl is a genuine treat. a a an o a Cling to Shawls and Homespun Skirts IN the matter of clothes the Indian women cling to their shawls and soft homespun skirts. Little girls look like miniature replicas of their mothers, while boys wear the traditional ponchos and white trousers held in place by a tight scarf wound around the waist. The laborer favors American overalls. Wealthy darlings of society patronize the French dressmakers and only rarely buy ready-made garments. The Maison Combe in Mexico City creates the wardrobes of practically all fashion leaders in that gay capital. Housework is done by the large staff of lifelong family retainers, who in time become so attached to their employers that more often than not they tyrannize them. It is very hard to talk back to one's nurse even after outgrowing her jurisdiction for several decades. As for cooks, they tolerate no interference in kitchens. But Mexican housewives like going to market now and then to see what prices really are and whether they have been cheated. Nobody likes spinach.
