Dahlias were scattered on the tables as centerpieces, and autumn foliage garlanden the hanging lanterns and pillars in the ballroom foyer. The "castles in the air' were projected on the ceiling in compliment to Art Kassel and his Kassels In the Air who provided music for the dancers.

Miss Josephine Madden’s red gown swished about her ankles in a mass of deep ruffles. Loops of the mama terial fell over her shoulders. Miss Charlene Buchanan’s gray velveteen frock flared out. and an effective color contrast was provided by the wide gold kid belt, fastened by a large buckle. The pointed neckline in front was edged with pleated ruffles which formed the shoulder straps. Brilliant buttons sparkled down the back of the gown from the edge of the decolletage to the waistline. R.eal white carnations circled the neckline of the monlike shoulder cape over Mrs. Donald Carter's red

Consumer Problems Discussed in Voters League Statement

Provision for ‘‘real consumer representation in the administration of government policies toward industry and agriculture is one of the most important steps toward solving the problems of the consumer,” Mrs. Beatrice Pitney Lamb. New York, declares in a survey, "Government and the Consumer,” issued today by the National League of Women Voters. Asserting that consumers are scattered, unorganized, lacking in leadership, weak in bargaining power and political influence, Mrs. Lamb, daughter of the late U. S. Supreme'' Court Justice Mahlon Pitney, concludes that their protection can be realized best by a change in emphasis in public thought from production to consumption, and that production and distribution must be carried with consumer uppermost in mind. Mrs. Lamb’s study of the consumer problem was made in her capacity as chairman of the

Manners and Morals BV JANE JORDAN

Have you a puzzling; problem? Write to Jane Jordan who he’.ps you deal with your diffieultics more intelligently. Dear Jane Jordan—l go regularly with a boy who seems to enjoy making me angry and saying things that hurt me very much. He only has been this way recently. At first he was very sweet to me and we got along fine. Is he just trying to make me jealous, or does this prove that he doesn't care for me any more? Now he always is telling me about some other girl he has met. They always seem to be blondes and I am a brunet. I told him we would quit so he could go with a blond, but he only laughed and said he was teasing me. I don’t know what to do as I can’t continue this way. I think a lot of this boy and am puzzled by his behavior. Please help me. HOPE. Answer—Unless the boy is willing to look within himself for the cause of the impulse which makes him

enjoy your discomfiture, and correct it, your problem with him can not be solved. The difficulty will be to make him take the situation seriously for he prefers to believe that his teasing is “all in fun.” Can you get him to see that what is fun for him is not fun for you without getting

Jane Jordan

angry when he accused you of being a poor sport? Teasing is a humorous method of making the other fellow feel little so that you can feel big by comparison. It is a rather shoddy method of establishing your own superiority. Teasing repartee between evenly matched wits is fun only when both parties have pretty tough skins: it is torture to the tender ego doubtful of its own significance. One of the worst situations that can arise in matrimony is where the partners come to take pleasure in embarrassing each other even when they disguise their intent in the form of a joke. Every one has seen this uncomfortable battle for self-importance waged between two people who were supposed to be in love. Their pleasure in belittling each other is so obvious that them friends dread to spend an evening in their presence. You are quite right to object to your boy friend's childish cruelty in humiliating you unnecessarily. It may seem like a small matter to him now, but in truth it is an ill omen presaging unhappiness ahead. Bear in mind that he does it to

make himself feel smarter and more significant than you are. If you feed his hungry ego more flattery, perhaps it would lessen his need for young girl of 16. For five months I self-expansion at your expense. Dear Jane Jordan—l am a young girl of 16. For five months I have been in love with a boy of 17. For two months he said he liked me and we used to have a few dates, but now he doesn’t love me any more and we never have any dates. When we see each other we always smile and say a few words. My friends think he still loves me but I don't think soIf he did he would come to see me. I know he isn’t having dates with any one else. Would you please give me your opinion and tell me how I could get him back again? IN LOVE. Answer—Don't try. Just interest yourself in somebody else. You’ll be surprised how quickly the image of this boy will fade £rom your mind. Love isn’t permanent at 16. At that age boys and girls fall in love with the idea of loving far more readily than they fall in love with each other. Almost any presentable boy or girl will serve as an object and the imagination supplies the rest. Take it as you would a mild attack of sea-sickness. Your recovery is absolutely certain. In the meantime increase your circle of acquaintances and have all the fun you can. Dear Jane Jordan—l am a boy of 16. not interested in every girl who comes along. I am not” girlstruck. I am very bashful, but there is a girl at school I would like to know. Nobody that I know knows her so I can't get an introduction. I would feel silly introducing myself- I thought maybe you could help me. BUD. Answer—Go ahead and introduce ycurs.elf. If you do so in a charming manner she will be flattered to death. It is good practice for a bashful boy. RUTH JONES SETS DATE FOR WEDDING Mr. and Mrs. W. Frank Jones announce the engagement of their daughter. Miss Ruth Lavania Jones, to Maurice W. Pickett, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alva Pickett. The wedding will take place Nov. 9.

about them. A key to the father’s character and dignity may be found in a remark he made to her on an occasion when she sat near him at a rousing camp meeting in he outskirts of the town. She unwittingly voiced disapproval of the proceedings. He said quietly, “If it becomes very disagreeable to me I can get up and go away. It is not; my business to criticise. It is not my meeting.” She accepted the rebuke and sat decorously to the end of the service. It is impossible for strangers to know, to see and to feel the personal charm of a poet in his youth and intimate associations. This poet was also a musician as the Troubadours were so. He plaved the guitar and sang with fine effect ! the old love songs. We lived, a group of children, in the midst of an acre of trees that had been our father's and mother s ■ home, and on summer nights with the moon shining through tne branches, the soft air vibrated with tenderness as he sang: "Unloose the snood that you wear, Jeanette. Let me tangle a hand in your hair, my pet. For the world to me holds no daintier sight Than your brown hair veiling your shoulders white. Than your brown hair veiling your shoulders white. And "Juanita," at his hands, lost nothing of its sweet pleading: ”Nita, Juanita, let me linger Tv thy side. Nita. Juanita, be my own fair bride.” The courtship was open and admitted, though unannounced. Tho family were included or disregarded as it might happen, she being the oldest. It was not a matter of moment to the pair who sat with them, or didn't, though the youngest brother spent much time with them; he was a lovely boy and a favorite with both. Never Scorned Audience And then at times the singer entertained us all, and liked to see that he could draw an unsophisticated audience so close. He would play : all up and down the scale of human j emotions in the old melodies until ! we were full of tears or plain con- | tent and musing. Possibly there was a mixture of the appeal of Orpheus, and the attraction of the Pied Piper in his hold of us, and he never scorned his audience. Great souls are apt to be conscious that the finest tribute to their power is the unquestioning answer to it, of the natural mind and heart. Besides, it was play time and he did all this to please the girl he loved, and to please himself. "Jim” liked to do caricature, too, and when he would sing, ‘‘lf there’s any girl here wants a kiss from me She'll find me as young as I used to be." j His personality melted away and a toothless old man with cracked : voice sat in his place. Another one j he sang often in full masquerade i voice was: | “There was an old woman lived under the hill Hi Ho! Diddle de day. And if she’s not gone she’s living there still To me whack, ferall, etc.” Learned Old World Songs The young man tapped a vein which yielded much amusement for himself and others, in the discovery, through the girl, of some quaint old world songs. They were of the thoughts and things that float about in the world's fancy from misty indeterminate past ages. An old woman who used to be our housekeeper, sang them as she darned the stockings. There was an odd sound in her voice when she drew out the long notes or reached the high places. One song she seemed to like was, “Loved Henry.’* It went like this: “Set down, set down. Loved Henry, she said. And stay awhile with me. The costlee cord that's ’round my waist I will give it unto thee.” More people are familiar with "Lord Lovell.” "Lord Lovell, he stood at his castle gate. Combing his milkwhite steed When along came Lady Nancy Belle Wishing her lover good speed, speed, speed, Wishing her lover good speed.” But more than all this, the poet’s friends know that no impersonator has ever equaled his own interpretation of his own poems. Great gif's he lavished upon a group of country children; but consider who ve were and what his persuasion. For us were the favors which in after years audiences would have paid to have, and were denied, for he disliked audiences and his reticenco was real.
