Discussion on Survey Scheduled A. A. U. W. to Consider Findings of Study on Schools. Findings of a committee of 21 members of the. Indianapolis branch, American Association of University Women, are to be discussed tomorrow at a meeting at the home of Mrs. Homer Grosbach, 522 E. 51stst, chairman. The committee has been studying educational problems, and has made survey of the curricula of Indianapolia grade schools as a part of a state - wide ‘‘Evaluation of the Schools of Indiana.’’ The parental education study group has co-operated with the committee, and Paul C. Stetson, Indianapolis schools superintendent, has met with them and personally cooperated in formulating plans for the survey. Data has been made available from school records and school office staff members to show changing educational requirements and curricular changes made by Indianapolis schools in recent years. Committee members also have conferred with principals, supervisors and teachers, and have ’ isited grade schools. Points Out Changes “Parents are Inclined to judge schools by the ones they knew themselves as elementary and secondary school students,” Mrs. William E. Rogers, parental education study group chairman, explained. “They do not fully understand the tremendous evolution which has occurred In the last 15 years. "Asa result, they do not understand the courses of study and the methods of learning which their children are being taught. The purpose of this curricular study and evaluation is to obtain information and make it available to those interested so parents may be equipped to understand their children better and to advise wisely when the time comes for choice of high school and college study courses.” The committee is to meet again with Mr. Stetson and school officials Friday in the school board office for a round table discussion of the survey. Mrs. Marian Gallup, Indiana Women’s Prison superintendent, is to speak on “The Problem of Crime and Its Relation to the Home” before the evening legislation discussion group at 7:30 tomorrow night at the home of Miss Betty Warren, 115 B. 28t,h-st. Mrs. Everett E. Campbell, group chairman, has announced that any one interested is invited to attend the meeting.

Hunt is ticket committee chairman. She is assisted by Mesdames M. M. Weaver, Amos B. Carlile, Lowell S. Fisher, Eunice J. Naylor, Walter F. Hammell and Leslie M. DeVoe.

LATEST FASHIONS FROM LOCAL SHOPS

BY MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Times Fashion Editor “CO comfortable and golf-right!’ says Miss Carolyn Varin, speaking O of the culotte dress she is wearing with such ease. When her Butler classes are over and freshman duties performed at the Kappa House, Miss Varin almost daily makes a bee-line for the

She is one of the most expert and enthusiastic of the younger members of the Woman’s Golf Association of Indianapolis and is scheduled to compete in their tournament to be held here in May.

GXXtCYMniA BY LAURA LOU BROOKMAN nea U.

BEGIN HERE TODAY Toby Ryan. 19, ig a photographic model, posing for photographs to be used in advertisements. Unknown at first, she is chosen as "The Hillyer Soap Girl.” Toby shares an apartment with Harriet Holm, another model, engaged to marry Clyde Sabin, whom Toby distrusts. Wealthy Tim Jamieson showers Toby with attention for a time, and then seems to forget her. Toby’s oldest friend is Bill Brandt, advertising salesman. She is fond of Bill but has never thought of him romantically. Jay Hillyer, president of the Hillyer Soap Company, sees Toby posing for some photographs. He takes her to dinner and later she has frequent engagements with him. 1 Clyde Sabin marries a wealthy widow, and Harriet, heart-broken, attempts suicide. She recovers and later goes to \the country for a rest. Tim Jamieson becomes attentive again. Toby goes to dinner with Hillyer who says he has a "particular reason” for inviting her. When she asks what the reason is, he seems embarrassed and says, “It’s a long story. I don’t know quite how to begin.”' NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR THE dinner had ended and they sat with coffee before them. Hillyer took the cigaret from his lips and rested it on a tray. “It’s a long story,” he repeated, “and it starts before you were born, Toby. More than 20 years ago. It’s about a boy who grew up in a little New England town. A place where nothing very important ever happened—unless you count the most important thing of all, men and women living useful, hard-working lives, raising families and teaching their children to be conscientious and honest and unselfish. Have you ever been in New England, Toby?” “Nq. I never have.” “Then there’s no use of my mentioning the name of this town or telling you where it is. That isn’t important anyway. But this boy was born there, and he grew up about like most boys. Not much better or worse. He went to grade school and had the measles and chicken pox, and belonged to a gang that used to have battles with another gang. He went swimming in the summer and ice-skating in the winter.

“TIFHEN he was older his parents •VV sent him to prep school and then to college. He wasn’t particularly interested in his studies, but he was out for football and managed to make the team and stay eligible. Football was about the only thing he really was interested in. He'd never paid much attention to girls at home and he didn't in college, either. "The summer he was 19 the boy’s father decided Ife should go to work. So, instead of going off for the usual trip to the seashore with his parents, he stayed at home and got a job driving the delivery’ wagon for a laundry. “It was the most wonderful summer in his life—” Hillyer stopped. For an instant Toby thought that he had forgotten her. Suddenly he smiled apologetically, “I'm afraid I’m being rather ljng-winded about this, but I hope you’ll forgive me. I told you I didn't know exactly how to tell this story.” “Go on*,” Toby urged. “I’m interested.” an n SHE was. There was no need to ask questions. It was, quite obviously, the story of Hillyer s own boyhood that he was telling. “Well,” he went on, “as I said, that summer, driving the laundry v.agon was the most wonderful tme hi this boy’s life. Not the job on the laundry wagon. That had nothing to do with it.” He paused again; then, looking at Toby, he continued. "It was a girl. She was a little thing, no bigger than you are Toby. She had ! hair color of yours, too. . **// it covers the 6fsa\ floor . . we have it” (EEzgp£jj Speed Queen JgK Electric Wisher with Safety-Roll Wringer (ff'Wg.TS m exclusive feature.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

'yyASHINGTON, Sunday.—We can, of course, think of little else today but the loss of our old and dear friend, Col. Howe. For over a year he had been ill. It had been quite evident that his one great desire was to get back to the work which he has done for so many years. But his

his family and friends will be an inspiration to all of them as long as they live. I spent nearly two hours yesterday afternoon going through J. Edgar Hoover's bureau in the Department of Justice, a most absorbingly interesting arm of the government. He told us that from 500 to a 1000 visitors go through every day, and I am glad that so many young people are realizing how unprofitable crime is, and how really unromantic it la. The detection of crime requires scientists, photographers and trained men of the highest possible caliber. As you walk through that bureau there is an atmosphere of co-operation and alertness which speaks well for the morale of this particular group. In the evening my Todhunter girls, who are here for the week-end. Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Work and their daughter from West Virginia, went to see “Cyrano de Bergerac.” I could not join them as I had to address the closing session of a conference on better housing held by the Washington Committee on Housing, of which I am a member, for the colored groups of the city.

Beautiful hair. She wore it in a braid around her head, and sometimes she wore a ribbon at the back. “She didn’t live in this town I’m telling you about. She came there to visit another girl. I forgot to tell you her name, didn’t I? It was Mary. One day when the boy was j making his rounds with the laundry, he knocked at the door of a house to deliver a package—and there was Mary! t* tt tt “T DON’T know whether or not A she was beautiful. The boy thought she was the most beautiful creature in the world. He fell in love with her, then and there. Love at first sight—just as the heroes and heroines in stories fall in love, just as lots of people will tell you can’t happen in real life. Maybe it doesn’t happen often, but for those youngsters it did. “Mary wasn't at all like the other girls the boy had known. She was quiet, almost shy, with a sweetness few mortals attain. He worshipped her, and she accepted this worship and returned it. You see, they were both so young. Pitifully young. He was 19 and she was two years younger. “Os course, they were foolish, but they were little more than children. Two weeks from the d.3y they first saw each other they were married. ’lt was an elopement and both misrepresented their ages. tt u tt MARYS visit came to an end and she went back to the older sister, with whom she made her home. They’d kept the marriage a secret—but after a while it came out. The boy’s parents declared he had ruined his entire future. There were terrific arguments, scenes, harsh words spoken in anger. The parents, no doubt, were right—from their viewpoint—but the boy was right, too. He could not make them see this. The law, parental authority, everything was against him. He was packed off to Europe for six months.” “But did he go?” Toby asked. “Did he go and leave Mary?” The cigaret had died and Hillyer rubbed out the ashes. “Yes, he went. You know, I’ve always thought it strange how people with the highest principles can shed them when they’re convinced they’re doing something for a righteous cause. Or when they want to be- I lieve that what they’re doing is i righteous. This boy’s parents promised if he would go abroad lor six j months he could come back and rejoin his bride and receive their blessing. It was on this promise that he went away.

a a a j“T*\o you know what happened? A J The minute he was on the i boat, the parents started action to' have the marriage annulled. I told I you Mary was a trusting little thing j —as unselfish as any one who ever j lived. They persuaded her that the | marriage was a handicap to the boy, told her that if she'd agree to the j : annulment, she could marry him later after he'd finished school and they would welcome her into the family. “Mary’s sister—the one she lived with—agreed to this. She considered the secret marriage a disgrace, and I guess she made this plain to B^ary.” “But,” Toby asked, “the boy came home, didn't he? What happened j then?” “When the boy came home it was too late. Mary had vanished as completely as though she had never lived.” “You mean—he never saw her again?”

heart was not up to the spirit that would have driven him back into harness. Last night he simply slept away after having a very cheerful talk with the doctor. There were few people for whom he really cared, but those who had the privilege of calling him their friend know that he always could be counted on. There never was a more gentle, kindly spirit. He hated sham and cowardice, but he had a great pity for the weak and helpless in this world and responded to any appeal with warmth and sympathy. His courage, loyalty and devotion to

“No. He never saw her again.” “Is that the end of the story?” a o a OILLYER shook his head. “No. The story has taken a long time in*the telling, Toby. In actual living, it has taken years. Part of it has come to light only in the last few days. Whye I was away on this trip. Events of this sort are like jig-saw puzzles—there's a piece here and a piece there to be fitted together. After you have enough of the pieces in place, the finished pattern begins to take form. You have to find the pieces and you have to get them in the proper order before you can make anything of the picture.” “But tell me the rest,” Toby said eagerly. “Perhaps if the boy had been older or wiser instead of the boy | he was. he might have found his ! Mary and the story might have had | a different ending. He didn’t find her because Mary and her sister and the sister’s husband had moved to another town.” tt h AND she didn’t try to find him?" “She couldn’t, Toby. Within a year Mary was dead.” Hillyer paused again. “That,” he continued, “was 19 years ago. A long time, isn’t it? Mary died when her baby was born.” An exclamation escaped Toby’s lips. “A baby daughter,” Hillyer went on, “whose father was never told of her existence. A daughter who today is a grown young woman.” Toby forgot that the story had been told in the third person. She ■said excitedly, “And have you found her? Have you really found her?” Hillyer nodded. “Yes,” he said, “I've found her.” His voice suddenly was edged with huskiness. “Oh, little Toby, don’t you know?” (To Be Continued) Junior Group to Meet The Junior Auxiliary, Bruce P.
