Meredith Nicholsons in City Pending Transfer to New Diplomatic Post Author and Wife to Rest Ten Days Before Going to Venezuela; Liked Paraguay, Where He Served as American Minister. BY BEATRICE BCRGA.N Time* Human * Pate Editor telephone rang. Messengers delivered flowers. Friends stopped JL in. Such was the afternoon Wednesday when Mr. and Mrs. Meredith Nicholson Sr. remained in their suite at the Indianapolis Athletic Club after their arrival from Washington. Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson will visit : Venezuela, where Mr. Nicholson, Indiana author, will assume his duties as American minister. After their return from Paraguay, where Mr. Nicholson had served more than a year as American minister, they stopped in Washington,

where they visited with diplomatic friends. • Mrs. Preston McGoodwin, wife of a former minister to Venezuela, gave me a delightful description of our future home,” Mrs. Nicholson explained. “The ’ecaMon was built as the home of President Juan Vicente Gomez' son when the latter was vice president.” • And did you regret leaving Paraguay?” we asked. “Yes. we did.” Mrs. Nicholson answered promptly. "The nat: o kindly and hospitable.” Shg retired to an adjoining room and brought out photographs of Dr. Eusebio Avala and his French-born wife, which were inscribed to Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson with friendly greetings. ' Dr. Avala speaks English fluently, but the family speaks French at home * Mrs. Nicholson said. Dr. Ayala not only speaks English well, but he

know.; some of the slang too," Mr. Nicholson interpolated. “His son was preparing to be an architect at Cornell University before he returned to his country to join the army." And so Dr Avala was educated in the collegian manner?" we queried. ‘That’s light,” Mr. Nicholson replied. “And how did you like the climate in Paraguay?” we asked. Mrs. Nicholson laughed. Well, the climate reminded me more of Indiana than any other In the coun’ry. While we had a short period of delightful weather, we were either sweltering or shivering through longer periods. The hou-es are difficult to warm. I don't believe there is a chimney in any of the houses except in the kitchens for the stoves.”

Bridge Is Popular “Tell us something about the social life,” we urged. “Bridge is the most popular pastime.” Mrs. Nicholson answered. “I didn't play any myself, but many of the women played afternoon and night. Dinners never were served until 9. We Americans think of 1 o'clock as the hour for women's luncheons, but in Paraguay it was the time for j men's banquets and luncheons for | both men and women. We enjoyed our pets, many of which rame from the warring Chaeo Boreal district, largely a jungle. Our fawn even ventured into the house; our parrot laughed and spoke in Spanish, but the herons ! given to us remained wild. “I spent a great deal of time in my garden which flourished with flowers similar to those we see in Florida- I also worked in a R-’d j Cross unit, which meets a great need in the hospital.” The Nicholsons didn't speak Spanish before they went to South i America, but it was not difficult for them to be understood because so ! many of the natives sper.'- English. Church Supports College “Many study at the Collegio Internacional." Mr. Nicholson explained. He looked toward Mrs. Nichob-on to say: “How did you like toe way I pronounced that?”j He had injected a genuine Spanish expression. • The Collegia Internarional Is a I missionaiy school supported bv thej Disciples of Christ which has its j headquarters in Indianapolis.” he added. “The Paraguay-American Societv also conducts a night s bool where Encli.-h is taught.” v,cholsc;i brought out some i r ■ p -‘"sc* handmade silk lace.! which native women make wi;hj ?s in their homes. “The lace! i- not sold in shops but is peddled Iron door to door.” she explained When the Nicholsons go to Venezuela, they will meet again Dr Gallardo de Niedo. who was minister ! of Cnili to Paraguay when they i first arrived there.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Have you a question you would like to have answered? Put it in a letter to Jane Jordan and read her comments in this column. Dear Jane Jordan—l have been reading “Modern Clinical Psychiatry” by Arthur P. Noyes. He speaks of identification as of two types, one of introjection, in which the person incorporates into his own personality the elements of another. Another type in which we unconsciously identify one image with anotherIt seems to me that you have mentioned in the column somewhere that children identify themselves with the parent. Is this true? If so, is it a case of introjection? Do children really by this means adopt the ideas, attitudes, feelings and characteristics of one of the parents? Will you answer this in the column. Answer—l have not read the book you mention and hesitate to interpret the author’s meaning. There can be no doubt but that children model themselves largely after the

adults in their environment, particularly the parents. Freud calls the process of making certain attributes of another personality one's own, identification. It has occurred when the little girl, struggling with secret envy of the new baby, turns to her dolls

lIKj

with renewed delight; when the boy, rebuked by his father for a misdemeanor, plays the imaginary role of policeman, thus incorporating within himself the authority which he resents in his father. Identification is a useful mechanism by which human beings solve tensions. When love and resentment are in conflict, as in the case of the little boy subjeat to his father’s authority, the resentment is worked off by an imaginary assumption of the father's role. Often the child permanently retains the father’s characteristics in his own makeup to unconsciously influence his choice of a profession in later life. Every one builds up a love image, often largely based on the parents, or if the parents are unsatisfactory, with their substitutes. The first per-

son he meets who unconsciously reminds him of the image he holds is identified with the secret picture or ideal. This is what happens when people claim to “love at first sight.” Asa rule it is a highly unreliable guide to marriage. a n Dear Jane Jordan —I am a girl who goes out for good times. I am rather particular who I go with and seldom fall hard for a boy. lam going now with a boy whom I like a great deal. When we go to dances a certain girl is at every dance. She is nice looking and sometimes sings with an orchestra. Whenever she is around more of his attention goes to her than to me. I’ve just been letting things slide by, but it is getting rather tiresome. Should I continue as I have or not date him any more? BROKEN-HEARTED SALLY. Answer—Why let the other girl outshine you? Wouldn’t it be better to engage yourself with another boy while she does her stuff? Then you could have a good time too and no bones broken. n n tt Dear Jane Jordan—Your advice to “Just Lonesome” is rather amusing. You advise her to go to church as church people are more friendly than any other organization. Well, I have this to say: God pity any stranger looking for friendship in the larger churches in this city. I have attended three and had only one person to speak to me and then not until this person saw me drop a $5 bill in the contribution box. Churches are bound to come out of this indifference to mankind if they hope to help defeat the depression. ANOTHER LONESOME PERSON. Answer—Perhaps you are too timid and do not look approachable. If you would introduce yourself to the minister and explain that you are a stranger in the city, he might be more interested. No one can make friends without effort on his own part.

Wasson Store Exhibits Clothes From ‘Roberta’ Which Set Style Pace Armored Trucks With Police Escort Carry; Attire in City; Film Now Being: • Shown at Indiana. BY HELEN LINDSAY TNDIANAPOLIS women will have an opportunity to see somo of the costumes from the picture “Roberta,” which opened at the Indiana Theater today, at close range. More than a dozen of the costumes were brought to Indianapolis yesterday, and taken in armored trucks to the H. P. Wasson store, where they will be displayed in the Washington-st windows. So valuable are these original costumes that they are heavily insured, and were taken to Wasson's accompanied by a police escort. The gowns worn by Irene Dunne and Ginger Rogers, feminine stars in the picture, and the “Roberta'’ mannequins, all were designed by

Bernard Newman, internationally famous stylist. Mr. Newman, formerly associated with Bergdorf Goodman, New York, was taken to Hollywood b: RKO-Radio to create tae gowns for the picture. He took his designing training in Paris, and has created gowns for such social and fashion leaders as Lady Astor. the Grand Duchess Marie, Mrs. Allan A. Ryan and Mrs. Harrison Williams. Jn the picture, the fashion show is one of the outstanding features. It is staged in a vast courtyard setting, in which cherry trees are in full bloom, and a silver fountain plays in the center. Many of the capes which will be seen in the spring fashions were inspired by those in the picture. Tile full skirted gowns for evening wear also have been given impetus from the fashions shown in this picture. The dress which inspires this trend is the black gown

worn by Ginger Rogers in her waltz number with Fred Astaire. "You will see all kinds of variations of this gown,” Mr. Newman predicts. "It has the tightly molded lines so much in demand for formal wear, but bursts into fullness just between the hip and knee. It is ideal for dancing, and has all the allure and beauty of line of the pencil slim silhouette.” tt tt a Miss Dunne Wears Copies of Noted Gems TN her role as a Russian princess, Miss Dunne w r ears replicas of famous jewels. A jeweled tiara is striking on her in the scene in which she appears in a heavy white metallic satin gown, cut daringly low in the back, with a front bodice fashioned of two full folds of material that cross at the neck line and continues over the shoulders to fasten to the skirt at the side back. With this costume she appears in a full cape with a train, topped with a large collar of Russian sable. Transparent black velvet and silver fox is worn by Ginger Rogers, as she appears in a formal street suit. The bottom of the jacket and the collar are banded with the fur, and with the costume she wears a closefitting hat of velvet trimmed with a huge bunch of aigrettes. One of the most practical costumes shown in the movie Is that of Miss Dunne’s, a street ensemble of pale tan wool, trimmed with a huge collar of nutria. Another wearable costume she shows Is a town and country ensemble, combining a wool checked coat in honey-beige and brown with a brown skirt, scarf and hat. tt tt a New Fabric Used in Plaid Suit j ANEW fabric, rainbow crepe, is shown in a colorful plaid suit worn dy Jane Hamilton in the picture. The colors are shadowy gray, chartreuse, rose coral and white. Soft white pigskin is fashioned into an aviation costume, which is worn in the screen fashion show by Donna Roberts. It, shows a belted swagger coat, and from shoe to helmet is entirely white. A deep, full ruff, down on one shoulder and up on the other, tops an evening costume worn by one of the models. The gown is of imported black and white striped silk, and is fitted smoothly over the hips, the stripes meeting at the seams, and extending into extreme fullness to the floor. Hundreds of aspirants were examined before the twelve mannequins were selected for the picture. The average height of the girls is five feet seven inches, and their weight average is 125 pounds.
