Shooting Tigers, Sewing Fine Seams, Both Easy for Town Hall Speaker Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt Jr., Jungle Explorer and Winner of Needlework Prizes, to Talk on Filipino Life BY BEATRICE BURGAS Society Editor 'VJ'RS. THEODORE ROOSEVELT JR., with steady hands can shoot a tiger as well as ply a needle in some of the more exacting hand work. She can fire at jungle animals with masculine coolness and then turn to such a purely feminine pastime as petit point. When she isn’t meeting one of her speaking engagements or fulfilling the social obligations incidental to her position, we can well imagine her sewing with the earnestness she accords preparation of a lecture. Mrs. Roosevelt, who is to come here Saturday to talk at Town Hall on "Life in the Philippine Islands," is as much a home-body as are many
women who are outside the public limelight. So fascinated is she by needlework that her original designs have won awards in exhibitions. She has done her share in bringing attention to her family, for her public appearances have met with marked approval. At the same time, she hasn’t neglected the simple, homely arts that appeal to the domestic woman. Her petit point, critics say, compares favorably with the exquisite "fancy work” of Queen Victoria's day. At an exhibition at the Vernay Gallery in New York, judges awarded her a gold star for her framed piece of petit point entitled. "Recognition of Soviet Russia.’’ So impressionable is Mrs. Roosevelt that day-by-day happenings give her ideas for her hobby. Her husband
Miss Burgan
is a big game hunter. She has recorded her notion of his adventures in a cross stitch pattern. Wild animals were reproduced by her in the handiwork. A bit of her humor is represented in another piece, a sampler which -be inscribed, “For a family physician who kept me slim.” A figure shows
a woman taking reducing exercises. It, was quite by accident that Mrs. Roosevelt began her series of appearances on Town Hall programs. Her great aunt, Mrs. Henry M Srtur.ders. wife of a noted Baptist divine in the nineties, promoted education by founding the League lor Political Education in New York. The league, under the guidance of Robert Erskine Ely, its director, built Town Hall in New York, and from it sprang the similar organizations all over the country. On a league anniversary, Mrs. Roosevelt was asked to talk about her great aunt. Asa young girl she had followed her relative’s activities and had an understanding and sympathy for the work. Last season she gave a lecture on the Philippines and so impressed were ner listeners that she was invited to give a limited number of talks. Student of Philippines When her husband was GovernorGeneral of the Philippines, she took an interest in the life and customs of the na*’./es and frequently traveled with him on inspection trips. She studied social problems. Photographs she has of scenes in the islands have been reproduced on stereopt.con slides and she illustrates her discussions with them. After her lecture in the Columbia Club, she is to be a luncheon guest. Mrs. Samuel Lewis Shank is to introduce her. At the speakers’ table with them are to be Mrs. Albeit J. Beveridge Sr..

‘Cook Hubby’s Breakfast; Take Wife to.Show,’ Married Couples Advised
BY HELEN LINDSAY Judge Joseph Markey, who sorrowfully admits that an average of 25 divorce suits are heard in his court each month, gave a few simple rules for marital happiness today. While he agreed they might not work successfully with all couples, he does v/ish that Indianapolis men and women would try them. ‘‘Get up in time to cook your husband’s breakfast,” was his advice to wives. "Have a gay little flower on the table, and use pretty dishes—you can buy them even at the dime store. Serve good food, in an attractive and dainty style. "And when you suspect that your

WARNED BY UNBLOCKING

The tax on bridge cards alone brings Uncle Sam a nice return each year. The amount of bridge furniture and equipment manufactured runs into a high figure, but perhaps the most interesting side of the industry is the teaching angle. Hundreds of women throughout the United States today are making a substantial livelihood out of teaching bridge. Conventions are held annually by the ranking bridge authorities for teachers and those successful In passing the examinations are given certificates. One of the most successful teachers is Mrs. Olive A. Peterson of Philadelphia, who was elected first vice president of the Women's Auxiliary of the American Bridge League for 1936. Mrs. Peterson also is rated as one of the outstanding women players in the United States. One of the hardest points in contract for the beginner to master is the principle of unblocking

husband has strayed from the path of marital faithfulness, pretend not to know it. If he comes home from the office a little late, and you believe that he’s been keeping a rendezvous with some other attractive woman, just be a little bit more loving. You’ll find he most likely will be glad to stick to his own hearth under treatment like that.” Take Your Wife Out To husbands, Judge Markey says: "Try taking your wife out with you to a dance or a theater, and sneak off with her for a friendly drink, if you like, instead of drink-

Mrs. Peterson gives a good example of that point in today’s hand. The Play West’s opener of the queen of hearts was won in dummy with the ace. East, at this point, not wishing to block the suit, in case partner had a quick entry, threw the king of hearts on dummy’s ace, as the lead of the queen showed partner had the jack and probably the ten. The jack of spades was led and, when it held, declarer continued with a small spade from dummy, East played low, and declarer finessed the queen. Declarer now had to get into dummy. The careless player might have led the six of diamonds and won in dummy with the jack. However, the proper play was to lead the king of diamonds and overtake in dummy with the ace. Now a spade was played and the nine finessed. Then the king of spades was picked up by the ace. Declarer cashed his queen of diamonds and, when East showed out, declarer had a tenace position over West. He led a small diamond, finessing dummy’s nine* Two losing hearts were discarded on dummy's two good diamonds and, in this manner, five-odd was made. Careless play of the diamond suit would have defeated the contract. (Copyright, 1936, by NBA Somee, Inc.)
ing with the boys at the corner tavern. “You’ll find that it’s just as much fun to buy flowers and pretty clothes for your wife as it is for some other pretty woman. And you’ll be surprised to find that she’s a good companion, in addition to being a good cook and a neat housekeeper.” And to both, he issued a subtle warning. “Don’t try to live like an angel, and don’t expect your marriage partner to. When human beings begin to expect too much of their fellow beings, they are going to get in trouble,” the judge said. Judge Markey’s advice came following a nation-wide survey by True Story magazine, which listed six rules for successful marriage and happy family life. Six Rales Listed These rule? are: 1. Don’t live with relatives or inlaws. 2. Have children. 3. Avoid “mixed” religious marriages. 4. Bring up your children with religious training. 5. Serve good meals and maintain an attractive home. 6. Don’t wait upon financial security. The survey was based on a questionnaire prepared by Dr. Lyman Bryson, professor of adult education at Columbia University; Dr. Ned H. Dearborn, New York University, and Mrs. Sidonie M. Gruenberg, Child Study Association, New York. Figures in Marion County reveal that for every three marriages, there is approximately one divorce. Government statistics show the average marriage lasts six years and eight months, according to Jack Anthony, director of the Marital Relations Institute, New York. Seeks to Cut Divorces In an effort to cut down local divorce figures, Judge Markey has adopted a unique system in Superior Court 1. "When a couple comes in here asking for a financial settlement, pending trial, I ask them to sitdown in the rear of the courtroom and talk the situation over,” he explained. “I tell them to consider the happiness of their children, for I believe that children always are damaged by divorce, whether they show it to their parents or not. “I explain to the wife that the mannerisms of her husband, which have gotten on her nerves, might be altered with a little suggestion. I try to show the husband that the women he sees who appear more attractive than his wife, probably would appear just as she does in home life. Divorce at Times Necessary “And very often, the divorce suit is dismissed. But of course, if they find that they can’t agree and get along without too much quarreling, divorce is the correct solution. But it’s one that shouldn’t be resorted to unless everything else has failed. “As for the dangers of mothers-in-law, J. don’t believe they cause divorces. If the married couple loves each other enough, in-law troubles won’t separate them. Neither will financial strain. Every one has learned that every household runs aver its budget. That’s not a serious difficulty. “What men and women need to learn, more than anything else, is tolerance and consideration of each other. When they learn that, I believe divorces will decrease.” FRENCH CONSUL TO TALK TO ALLIANCE Alliance Francaise of Indianapolis is to present Rene Weiller, consul of France at Chicago, at its meeting Feb. 20 at the Washington. Edward J. Meunier, alliance president, announces that all French-speaking people in the city and those interested are invited to hear the address, to be given in .French. Arrangements are being made by the club for a reception and dinner in honor of the visitor. Sorority to Meet Alpha chapter.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
VyHITE HOUSE, WASHINGTON.—The large official luncheon scheduled for today was given up on account of the death of King George, whom my husband had known personally. Lady Lindsay, who would have been the ranking guest, will now be officially in mourning for some time
and will attend no formal entertainments. Every one who knew the King seems to have a personal sense of loss and feels that a valuable influence has gone out of international affairs. A few out-of-town guests gathered for an informal lunch, however. Dr. Mary Woolley, president of Mount Holyoke College, sat next to me. As I looked about the table I realized that in a small group we had several states represented and a great diversity of interests. It occurred to me that every one present had a contribution to make which the whole table sffbuld hear and I asked each one to rise, give her name, state, occupation and chief interest. This they did. and such a variety as we had!

Miss Rose Schneiderman and Mrs. Maud Swartz represented the point of view of labor. Mrs. Charles W. Tillet Jr. of Charlotte. N. C.. Mrs. Inez Scholl of Connersville, Ind., and Mrs. Carl Pryor of Burlington, la., each spoke in the interests of their states. Miss Dorothy Kenyon, deputy commissioner of licenses in New York City, told of her job and her inability to ever tie herself down to any political party. Questions broke loose on international affairs. How could women best register their opinions on peace, on labor conditions, on legislation they were interested in? What was the best w r ay of getting reliable information? I found myself wondering if this lunch was not proof of the fact that women are more alive to government, and all it implies, than ever before.
