Children of Stravinsky Like Arts
Composer to Appear Here Sunday Is Proud of Family. BY BEATRICE BURG AX Timet Unman') race Editor IGOR STRAVINSKY, composer, who will give a joint concert with Samuel Dushkin and the Musical Art quartet Sunday at English's, is a patron of art, and he is proud that his children have followed artistic careers. His eldest son, Feodor, is a pianist and his daughter. Milean,
has painted ikors for the Russian Church of Marseilles. Another son, Sviatoslav, is a pianist and he recently made his debut under the family name of Sou-lima-Stravinsky to avoid confusion with his father. Ludmilla. another child, is a textile artist. Stravinsky sits for
Miss Burgaii
hours to talk to a visitor about, art, Mrs. Nancy Martens, his local sponsor. explains. In his study, hang portraits of Verdi. Rossini and Bellini. his favorite composers. Stravinsky has been painted many times, but his most famous portrait is a line drawing by Picasso, made in Rome during the war. We have been told that the police at the Italian border refused to allow it to leave the country, because they believed it to be a disguised plan fortification. Uses Mechanical Devices Visitors favored with entrance to the composer's study are impressed by the many mechanical objects he .uses for the production of musical .notation. * Mrs. Martens explained that he probably uses more machines and gadgets in his composition than any other composer. He us?s a special rollator to make his own ; staves and to cross out passages which do not please him. An as- 1 sortmrnt of quill pens, ordinary pens, fountain pens, ink wells, rul- j ers and sundry contrivances speed up the mechanical part of the process of composing. He says he hopes that someone some day will invent a satisfactory musical typewriter. He composes three hours every morning in spring and summer only. Orderliness is an element of his musical thinking just as his whole life is organized carefully. He was trained to be a lawyer and his bureaucratic method no doubt is a result of his early education. Enjoys Home Life When he is at home in Paris at Due Du Faubourg St. Honore. he spends the evenings at home with his family. He enjoys playing bridge and a kind of Russian whist | called vint. His mother, an energetic woman of 80. who orders the j meals, often takes a hand in the l games. Mrs. Martens has received word that 20 students of the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music will come to hear the Sunday concert. Daniel Ericoult, head of the piano department of the conservatory, and Mrs. Ericoult, Mr. and Mrs. Donald F. Dearness and Miss Valeria Adler have sent word that they will attend.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN What is vour hardest problem? Put it in a letter to Jane Jordan and read her suggestions in this column. Dear Jane Jordan—l am a woman of 25 and have been married three years. I have worked all my life and still do. I am a waitress. My
husband has been out of work for four months and I am so jealous of him he can’t look for w’ork. I never have seen him with a woman, but somehow I think he does go, although he never has a dime to spend. I love him and he is as good as can be, but I cry at night and

even play-off sick from work lots of time just to come home and see if any one is with him I always find him home alone. We fuss a lot but just because I accuse him of doing things he shouldn’t. What makes me believe that he does go with other women? I almost go crazy at times. Can you tell me what is the matter with me? DISGUSTED MARTHA. an n Answer—Many a man never thought of being unfaithful to his wife until she suggested it to him by her constant unfounded accusations. If you want your husband to be true, why do you constantly put ideas to the contrary into his head? As I have explained before there are two kinds of jeaiousy, normal and abnormal. Normal jealousy is founded on fact and is more or less unavoidable since no one is free from some fear of losing the beloved. Abnormal jealousy has nothing to do with fact but is founded on suspicion and vague fears which originate within the person who feels them. A great deal of pathological jealousy arises from the person’s own self-mistrust. He can not imagine himself faithful under the same temptations which beset the loved one. It may be that you overestimate the attractions of your own sex and feel secretly certain that if you were a man with free time on your hands you would make a great play for attractive women. Have you ever wished
Needlework, Gaining in Popularity, Shows Wide Variety at Wasson Store Wall Hangings of Today Were Samplers in Grandmothers’ Time; Knitting and Crocheting Also Come Back. BY HELEN LINDSAY INDIANAPOLIS women who have been active throughout the year will find something to keep them busy in their homes during the cold weather ,’in the new features which are being shown in the art needlework department of the H. P. Wasson & Cos. store. Handcrafts which have been neglected by women for many years again are gaining in popularity, and modern women will play again the parts of their grandmothers in executing the various pieces of needlework which are being introduced. Some of the new’ wall hangings at Wasson’s are reminiscent of the
work which women did in Colonial days. Old-fashioned samplers, to be done in cross-stitch, again have come into favor. They are to be obtained at Wasson's in quaint old patterns, stamped on wh e linen. Embroidered in colorful yarns and silks, the samplers are framed and used as pictures. Other wall hangings which are available for handwork are Cape Cod maps, stamped on white linen, to be embroidered in bright colors. These are mounted on pieces of maple, and used in drawing rooms and studies, or in dens and children's rooms, as attractive wall hangings. Others are stamped on oyster gray crash, to be bordered in yarn and embroidered in cross-stitch in bright colors. Designs on these include old Colonial scenes, ships and animals.
Collar and Cuff Sets Crocheted THE importance of knitted and crocheted women's clothing is seen in new’ crocheted collar and cuff sets, instructions for which are available in the Wasson art needlework department, where the proper threads and yarns are shown. One of these new sets is a colorful one called Aztec, while another is the Hornpipe set. Crochet kits are made up of cellophane packages which contain materials and instructions for making various articles. Included in these kits are designs for chair and davenport backs and other household decorations. One five-piece luncheon set included :n one of these kits is designed W’ith colorful flower-pots, and shows a fringed edge for cloth and napkins. tt tt tt st a tt Clothes Will Be Modeled in (i Roberta” Film JUST, as costumes worn in the stage production of “Roberta” created much interest among women, the costumes featured in the screen production by RKO, starring Ginger Rogers, will be awaited with enthusiasm. Ten mannequins, chosen from 60C0 entrants, will model gowns in the picture. They were given screen tests before the selections were made. Dresses which they will model will include sports wear, 6treet clothing, dinner, cocktail and evening gowns. One of the most effective costumes w r orn by Miss Rogers in the film is a pale gray woolen, with huge cuffs of skunk. The coat has a draped neckline, which opens in the back, and the garment is slipped on like a surgeon's operating gown.
Contract Bridge
Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League THE strip and end-play is one of the most useful weapons of the declarer. There’s nothing difficult about the play, and the opportunity to use it often presents itself. The reason a great many players miss out on this strategy is because they have a tendency to take too many finesses. Why not plan the play of the hand so as not to take a finesse unless there is no other way out? South opens the bidding in today’s hand with a spade. West has a defensive type hand and, being vulnerable, shouldn’t enter the bidding. Get out of the habit of overcallthat you were a boy so that you could enjoy more freedom in trifling? Jealousy of any sort is indicative of a deep-seated conviction of inferiority. You have no faith in your own ability to keep what you have won. You feel inadequate to the love problem and are foolish enough to let your husband know that his love is in the hands of a weakling who has no weapon against intruders but tears. You have not shown the strength which makes a man feel that no other partner could equal the one he has. One of the surest methods of driving your husband from you is to let yourself become his jailer. If you cut off the opportunity of energy release which comes from work, you can expect a back-fire of some sort. It simply is not humanly possible for a man to love a woman who interferes with his right to be a separate person. Like all jealous people your jealousy is not so indicative of love as a uesire to dominate. Unless you show more stability yourself you will not be able to keep your husband stable. Dead Jane Jordan—Do you see anything wTong with a soldier? I have fallen for a nice looking soldier boy. He wants to come to the house but Mother wouldn’t approve of that; so I have been meeting him certain places. He joined the army because he has no Mother or Father and no home. He has two years to stay and then he is going to leave the army. He really loves me and I think a great deal of him. Will you please tell me how I can arrange this so I can se him at the house? WORRIED. Answer—Like all other human beings, a soldier has a right to be judged by his character and not by his profession. Besides, what’s wrong with his profession other than he doesn’t make enough to support a wife? I see no reason why your Mother should ostracise him simply because he is a soldier, but 1 know of no way to change her mind about it. Isn’t that up to the soldier? Dear Jan Jordan—l am a girl of 16 and have dates with a boy a year my senior. I like him better than any one else but he is very indifferent. I have learned through others that he does this on purpose to make him like me more. What should I do? WONDERING. Answer—Let his indifference fail in its purpose. When it ceases to bring results perhaps he will have wit enough to try soething else. How about turning the tables?

North’s bid of two spades is simply a chance-giving bid and South takes the strain off the hand by going to four. This is in no way a slam try. tt a a WEST cashes the first two tricks, the king and ace of clubs, and then continues with the queen, which South trumps with the Three of spades. A small trump is led and won in dummy with the king. Many players now w'ould make the mistake of leading a heart and taking the finesse. Why resort to that play until necessary? Instead, take another round of spades and you w'ill find that there is only one trump outstanding. Now the club should be led and trumped with the jack of spades. This clears up the club suit. The ace of spades shoula be led, which picks up all the trump. As the diamond finesse is going to be taken through the king-jack, the declarer first cashes his ace of diamonds and then leads the deuce of diamonds, finessing the jack. East shows out, discarding a small heart. The king of diamonds is cashed and this leaves West with the high diamond. Now isn’t it simple? All you have to do is lead the diamond, put West in the lead and, as he has nothing but hearts left, he must play into your ace-queen. This end-play eliminates what would have proved to be a losing heart finesse. (Copyright. 1935. NEA Service. Inc.l AKQS v 9 6 4KJ 5 3 A76 4 2 AlO 4 Z !a 0 S!.
