Dear Jane Jordan—Will someone explain the reasoning in the Nicholson heart balm bill when it comes to protecting a guilty corespondent in a divorce action?

A corespondent who has | taken the initiative in an affair j perhaps over a period of years? Isn't it only fair that she should be named in order to keep her , from breaking up other homes? CURIOUS. .Answer —Os course if you are going to consider love a commodity which can be stolen like- the knives and forks, you will wisn for some recourse against the thief. But if

you look on love as something which can not be legislated >’bu will see the futility of blaming an outsider for a lack of j emotional adjust- ; ment between a; married pair. That i there is such a ! thing as a proses- | sional love thief. I have no doubt. Some men and women are in-

havo established an ethical code of his own. When such an individual is dragged into court by an infuriated husband or wife, the sympathy of the intelligent rests with the correspondent, for all correspondents are not blackguards by any manner of means. The less the state monkeys with | emotional matters which belong to the field so the psychiatrist, the better. Let the law concern itself with property settlements. To be sure it is easier for a deserving wife to get a just property settlement if she can unearth a handy correspondent. But wouldn’t it be better to recognise incompatibility as urgent grounds for divorce instead of letting all the horror settle round adultery? a a a Dear Jane Jordan—l am 15 and very pretty, I’ve heard. I have my own way most of the time because I am my parent’s favorite out of five children. I have a married sister of 19. We get along together fine until her husband nibs in. I think he is just a smarty. I have half a hundred boy friends and I am very popular. I don’t like squirts and don’t go with boys under 17. I am a junior in high school. I have an awfully sweet boy friend who does not go to school. He has a good job and wants to marry me. I love him but just can’t stand to give up my good times. My parents do not like him. My brother-in-law hates him and tells my parents bad things about him so that my parents will not let me go with him. Both my brother-in-law and my parents favor another 19-year-old boy who nearly worships me, but I don't love him. I am blue and i heart sick. Tell me what to do, 1 be everybody’s sweetheart, go with the boy I love, or the one they like. lam desperate. KITTY. Answer—A girl who has spent 15 years falling in love with herself needs a lot of practice before she can fall wholeheartedly in love with anybody else. That is why I am not impressed with the genuineness of your affection for your favorite boy friend, but think you have your desire for him all mixed up with your determination to have your own way. If the opposition were re- I moved, would the affection last? ; You have a lot of friends without j being everybody’s sweetehart, and that is the most intelligent thing for a 15-year-old girl to do. When I say friends. I mean real friends and not just so much fodder for your ego. Yo„'j find other people as interesting as you are if only you take the trouble to know them.

Masculine Spring Attire Parts Company With Many Traditions Long in Vogue Colors Will Be Bright, Fabrics Unusual and Variety Wide. Display at Block Store Shows. BY HELEN LINDSAY 'T'HOUGH women have envied men for many years and have clamored | for equality, there always has been one point in which they felt ! they had men bested, the diversion which choice of clothing gave them. This year even that has been equaled by men. according to Wally Barrett, men's stylist of the Wm. H. Block Cos., who points with pride to the array of bright colots, unusual fabrics and variety of designs in I men’s clothing. There will be surprises in color in the spring wardrobes of Indiani apolis men; much red will be seen in overplaids and unusual shades

* of blues and greens will be seen in colorful tweeds and ■ rough sports clothes. Predominating in the spring styles is the Gable suit, i inspired by clothes worn by Clark Gable, who has shown I young America how to wear the careless sports clothing i copied from the styles of the Duke of Kent, who rapidly is taking the place of the Prince of Wales as a style example. The Gable suit nas a shirred back, on a yoke, with an inserted pleat down the center. It is belted across the back, with a sewed-in belt, and is distinctly the type of coat which will be chosen by "he-men” for spring wear. The lower pockets of the jacket are large and roomy, and called “saddle pack” pockets. All lower pockets carry flaps with buttons, and even the buttons wall bring envy to the eyes of feminine admirers. They are a far step from the plain bone buttons worn pre-

viously, for while they are bone, they look like leather, and have a smart, sporty look. One new* feature of some of these coats is the use of two side vents * instead of one back vent. Which means, to the person inexperienced in ! the jargon of men’s tailors, that the slashed bottom of the coat, pre- ! viouslv seen only at the center of the coat, now is seen at each side. ! and when the wearer carelessly thrusts his hands in his pockets, the i back of the coat remains smooth and in place. An important newcomer in the sport coats is a four-pocket coat ! with side vents and all pockets fastening with leather buttons. This is a I three-button model, and like the other sports coats, is worn with pleated j trousers. The trousers are slightly pegged at the top. tapering gracefully to j the bottoms, where they have the usual cuffs. This season they will be i worn so the cuffs come just to the insteps, but do not touch, eliminating I the "break” in the fronts of the legs. an a b B a Contrasting Coats and Trousers Approved THE young man’s wardrobe this year will appear to be much more extensive than it really is. for sports coats will be worn with unmatched slacks. Some of the two-trouser suits even are shown with one j pair of matching trousers and the other pair a contrasting material. The sports clothes wall be in new weaves, prominent among which will be an oatmeal weave, while Harris tweeds, herringbones, overplaids and stripes, much more pronounced and wider than those shown in previous seasons, will be w r orn. An important accessory to the mixed suit are separate, contrasting vests. These will be very gay. though cut on the same lines as other vests. They will be shown in Tattersall checks, in bright backgrounded plaids and in a w-ide wale natural color corduroy, knowm as 11-ply corduroy. This latter vest has dummy flaps on the lower pockets. Probably the newest thing in men’s clothing, and the one which will call to mind the most recent pictures of the Duke of Kent, is the “bottom button-to-button” coat. It has all of the careless, easy air of Englishmade clothes, and is distinguished by a number of new features. It is double-breasted, with six front buttons, only the bottom of which is worn buttoned. The stiff lapels have been discarded, and the lapels are soft, rolling back carelessly. Some of these coats have outside flaps on the pockets and some show convenient outside cash pockets.
