Couple Is to Visit Bermuda Miss Virginia Roberts Is Married to Stuart Shields Blish. Mr. and Mrs. Btuart, Shields BUsh are in New York awaiting the boat which is to take them to Bermuda on their wedding trip. After May 15 they are to live at Seymour. They were married Saturday night in a ceremony at the Second Presbyterian Church by Dr. Jean S. Milner before a large group of their socially prominent friends. Mrs. Blish was Miss Virginia Roberts, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John W. Roberts. Mr. Blish is the son of Mrs. Tipton Shields Blish, Seymour. The bridal party stood before a setting of greenery, arranged in graduated heights. Numerous white tapers outlined the tiers, arranged of southern smilax, cibotium iern, and Easter lilies. Jonquils, delphinium, white tulips also were arranged in the greenery. Both aisleways were decorated with standards holding white cathedral tapers, entwined with white tulips, jonquils and lilies. Standards of flowers were arranged at the entrances of the church. Brother Was Best Man While Charles F. Hansen, organist, played bridal music, guests were seated by Edwin Blish, Seymour; John Rockwood and Armin Schlesinger, Milwaukee; William Scott, Lorado, W. Va., and William Forster, Erie, Pa. Tipton Blish, New York, was his brother’s best man. Miss Roberts, who was given in marriage by her father, was gowned in ivory satin, carrying gardenias with stems entwined in matching satin. The dress was tunic style, buttdned to the waistline in the back, with long fitted sleeves. The train of the evening dress, worn beneath the tunic, swept the floor. Her veil of Point Venice lace was fashioned with a satin cap decorated with medallions of lace. Served as Maid of Honor The maid of honor, Miss Janet Blish, Seymour, the bridegroom’s sister, wore delft blue net and carried an arm bouquet of delphinium, cornflowers and iceland poppies, shading from apricot to red. Adorning her hair was a tiny coronet of cornflowers and poppies. The bridesmaids, Miss Virginia Hall, Washington, and Mrs. Otto Eisenlohr were dressed in identically styled dresses, each a lighter shade of blue, and carried arm bouquets of the same flowers as the maid of honor. The gowns were high necked, with off-the-shoulder capes of accordion pleated net, trimmed with blue velvet. Rows of accordion pleated ruffles, in graduated widths, trimmed the trailing skirts. The bridesmaids also wore coronets of cornflower and poppies. The bridal couple received their friends at the Roberts’ hqme, standing before the fireplace arranged with boxes of spring flowers. Two large blue urns in the hall held roses, delphinium, jonquils and other spring flowers. The bride is a Tudor Hall graduate and attended the Wey lister School, Milford. Conn. She is a mpmber of the Junior League, Christamore Aid Society and the Dramatic Club. Mr. Blish is a graduate of Lawrenceville Preparatory School and the University of Virginia.

BY MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS , Times Fashion Editor AS a prelude to the garden tour of the Park School Mothers’ Association scheduled for May 9 and 10, we find Miss Jane Adams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Ray Adams, on a tulip-gathering tour of her own, in the family garden. ,
After Tudor Hall School hours, she likes to don a fresh linen frock and get down to earth among the flowers. Here, she matches her two-piece garden dress with the light BWwn,
soil. It is of natural-colored crash, with bright blue leaf-like figures. There’s a string to it, if you consider the belt and neck cord. They are fashioned of natural-toned rope, ingeniously entwined. a u * npHE sun’s warm lays are warded off effectively by the protective, wide-brimmed hat of rough linen straw, also of beige tones, with ribbon band of blue. ' v Like every wise gardener she dons cream-treated gloves, equips herself with scissors and a basket . . . and is off for a clip! If you take your gardening more seriously and really go digging in the soil you’ll find that the new cotton culotte dresses are more adaptable for getting on hands and knees with your trowel. n tt QLACKS of delicately colored cotton and shantung are kings j among the cabbages, as well. Clothes designers have proven themselves more garaen-conscious than ever this spring and are giving women a chance to match the crocuses and the tulips with appropriate flower-fresh, back-to-the-soil togs. Have a look at them in local shops! TRI PSI TO HAVE LUNCHEON MAY 1 The Tri Psi Sorority’s annual violet luncheor. is to be given May 1 at the Marott Hunters’ Lodge.

Solution in next issue. 20 Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary 'T'ODAY’S article concerns the double of a slam contract for the purpose of directing the proper lead from your partner, whb is the opening leader. Intelligent use of this new convention has defeated many slam contracts. Since the double now has become a conventional lead-director, you must not double a slam that you feel you can defeat, when you want your partner to make the normal opening, rather than the opening that would be called for by a double. It is quite obvious, however, that it is better to sacrifice a few points on such occasions than to deprive yourself of a weapon that is powerful enough to defeat a slam contract which otherwise could not be beaten. Where you can beat the slam, regardless of what your partner opens, naturally there is no harm in doubling in any event. This convention, instead of telling your opponents where adverse strength lies, advises your partner what lead most assuredly will beat the contract. For that reason, the experts now use the double of a slam bid to direct their partners in making an unusual opening; that |s, one that does not seem to be indicated by the bidding. If you are the opening leader, and your partner has doubled a slam bid, your choice of an opening suit is guided by one of the following two rules: 1. If the dummy hand has bid one or more suits, then the douler’s partner must open the first suit bid by dummy. 2. If the dummy hand has not bid a suit during the auction, then doubler’s partner must open the first suit, other than the trump suit, bid by declarer.

He therefore should double, since, as I have pointed out, it will be a command to his partner to lead the first suit bid by dummy, which is the club suit. Without the double, West undoubtedly would open the king of diamonds and, of course, the slam is absolutely foolproof with such opening. The important thing to bear in mind is that you should reserve your doubles of slam contracts for those situations in which you wish to have your partner make an unusual opening lead.

FOLLY and FAREWELL
BEGIN HERE TODAY Linda Bourne, 20 year* old, pretty and foeially prominent in the little town of Newtown, it left almost penniless after the sndden death af her father. She becomes friendly with Peter Gardiner, political reporter, and shows him a scenario she has written. Linda breaks a date with Peter after I.ix Carter, with whom she is in. love, telephones. Dix comes to aee her, but stays briefly. Later Linda goes to Peter’s home and is welcomed by his mother. Peter tells her that his newspaper needs a society reporter. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER FIVE FOR five hours Linda actually did not think of Dix for one minute. She was having a good time. She ate chicken hash and fluffy biscuits and home-made relish and heaps of strawberry shortcake and felt like an over-stuffed child at Thanksgiving. She looked at pier tures of Pete when he was a little boy (much to his disgust). She listened to stories of what a good boy he had been until he had to restrain his mother from saying more. Linda talked —or rather questioned Pete—about newspaper work, and begged him to reassure her about the job on the Blade. “It’s a cinch you’ll get it. You’re just the girl. Barrett’s been depending on publicity to fill that society column, but I pointed out to him that you could fill in with a few telephone calls.” “Os course I could,” Linda said breathlessly. “The pay won’t be much. Ask for S2O; you’ll probably get $18.” “Why, that’s loads of money! Do you think I’ll be worth it?” Linda asked him. “There’s lots of money to be made in newspaper work, my dear,” said Mrs. Gardiner sagely, albeit she knew nothing about it. tt tt tt “ A RE you always going to be a -l"Y. newspaper man?” Linda asked with awe, seeing the great career she was going to embrace. “Why not?” Pete answered, lazily drawing on his pipe. “That’s one job where you can put your feet on the desk and nobody minds.” “Don’t you pay any attention to him, Miss Bourne. He likes to pretend he’s the laziest man in the world, but he’s been working since he was a little tyke selling papers. And some day he’s going to be famous. When he sells one of his plays. I tell him they are as good as the plays of this famous O’Neill.” “Oh,” Linda said briefly; she might have known! “Plays?” “Sure,” Pete dismissed it. “Every newspaper man writes plays. That’s the way he makes up to himself for not doing any other work.” tt tt ‘VpLEASE may I read one?” Linda Jt asked with a sparkle in her eye. She said it as winningly as he
Aggressive Girl To id to Be More Subtle With Boy
Are you unlucky in love? Perhaps the 1 mlt is your own. Put your case in a 1 stter to Jane Jordan and read her ( imments in this column. Dear Jane Jordan—l am a high school girl, very pretty and quite popular. I have many friends, more girls than boys. Last fall I fell pretty hard for a boy. He was entirely out of my class as I go with
one of the best crowds at school, but I took him into our crowd and they accepted him. He fell for me, too, and I began to make something out of him. He had liked another girl before me but I told him I was going to be the one and only or nothing. We got

along fine for a while. Then another girl came along. He told me she didn’t have a chance, but I found out he told her he didn’t care for me. He asked for her picture. He had never asked for mine. People began to question me about it and tease me; so I told him I was through. I walked out before he could say anything and I have been positively ignoring him ever since. This other girl is not nearly as attractive as I am and has not such a good reputation, but I don’t think he knows that. I still love him and I think he still loves me but doesn’t know what to do about it because he always has looked up to me and respected me. I have an awful temper and I think he’s just not sure what to do for he thinks I don’t like him any more. PEGGY. Answer; Although you do not think so now, it is not important whether you have your way with this young man or not. What is important is that you see why you lost him to a girl less attractive. You were the aggressor, not he. Deliberately you chose a young man whom you fancied to be somewhat beneath you socially and introduced him to friends whom you thought £o be better than his. This put you into the superior position which you tried to hold by eliminating all competition. You reverse the roles in courtship and the old-fashioned male simply won’t stand for it. Now your boy friend has chosen \i girl to whom he can feel superior. My guess is that she is a more passive creatine than you are, without such a devastating will to rule. No doubt she is less impressed with her own social reputation and altogether he feels more comfortable, more masculine in her presence. In other words, she looks up to him, not vice versa. She makes him feel important. You make him feel unimportant. Your erfw, I believe, is summed up in the statement, “I began to make something out of him.” I* doubt the altruism of your motive. I susjfect you of building a monument to your own ego, of the

had when he had asked, her to let him read her scenario. “They're not worth it, but it’s nice of you to want to.” He played back at her. “Peter read your story to me. Miss Bourne. I told him I think it will make i fine moving picture.” Linda was embarrassed; he had read it to his mother! “You’re just being kind”—and, turning to Pete—- “ Please may I take it along with me?” She didn't want any one else to read it. Pete took a long time to stamp cut the ashes before he answered. He cleared his throat and looked away. “Sorry. I ... er ... I left it in my desk at the office but it’s perfectly safe. Now about this Interview tomorrow ...” Linda couldn't sleep that night. She was weaving romances about a famous girl reporter uncovering crooked political schemes, saving the poor from financial disasters, rescuing children from fires, bringing in scoops. She was the girl reporter. tt tt a BUT it wasn’t like that. Mike Barrett hired her, gave her a comer desk, told her to fill a colmun with society news and gave her a pair of scissors and paste-pot. She bought herself a no.e-book and wer.t to work. There were no scoops for her, no political schemes to uncover. She spent her mornings on the telephone and her afternoons rushing from meeting to tea, from organization headquarters to committee meetings. Her daily column grew and added a Sunday page. She became a hard-working society reporter and it took all her time. Parties were out for her. Her mourning made it impossible to accept the invitations that came to her as before, and she was glad to have an excuse not to attend. But she was enjoying herself, and a hope that was springing anew, she kept out of her mind, remembering the humiliation of that early spring Sunday with Dix. For Dix had come bade. They rode out in the country in his big roadster. On Saturday nights when she worked late, Dix called for her, but those Saturday nights were hard to bear, for he never said he would call or telephone and he never called early. She dared not hope that he would come, and she lived in delicious agony each Saturday, her eye on the galleys she had to correct but her ear attuned to the telephone. He always came. tt tt * HE even came the night it rained so hard. And she found a huge old umbrella whi< .1 they hung on the branch of at: ie when the rain
need not only to feel your influence at work but to have it recognized by others. If you want to lead a male in the way he should go, you mustn’t let him see your fine Italian hand at work. A more subtle woman would have contrived to let him believe he did it all himself. . She who is able to make her partner feel twice his natural size every time he looks into her eyes and live up to his own image, is a success as a woman.

was over. That was the night Dix carried her tenderly across the pavements arid set her down tenderly in puddles of water which neither of them noticed. And that was the night that he kissed her sweetly but he did not speak of love and she was content to wait. May came with her sharp sweetness, and melted in June’s mellow warmth. All of life had quickened for Linda. It was full of real things she hadn’t know’n before. There was work and love and friendship. Real friendships. Her old crow’d she saw frequently and talked beaus and parties and clothes with them, as girls do, but the Gardiners were her real friends. To Mrs. Gardiner she told her whole story—the story of her mother and her father and her own loneliness—and into her sympathetic ears she poured the story of her love for Dix Carter. Mrs. Gardiner was still when Linda had finished and like fear came into her quiet eyes as she thought of her son and this girl. Pete had not spoken to his mother of the things she knew he must be feeling, but she guessed and did not want him to be hurt. This wise woman saw the lack of emotional balance in Linda where others saw only the calm, poised and sensible thing for which she stood. Mary Gardiner knew that Linda was made to be hurt and to : hurt others. No one else in Linda * : life ever perceived that. So no one could ever help her when she needed help, as she did many times in the years that followed. tt a AND Pete was her good friend. Pete who wangled tickets for the few shows that came to the local playhouse. Pete who slipped an ivy plant on her desk from under his shabby topcoat. Pete who always had a well-thumbed book to draw from hs pocket and read aloud when they went to walk late afternoons. Pete who bought an ancient car that had long since lost its identity. He called it “Horace Greeley,” and in Horace’s noisy arms, they sped about the countryside. Truly, Linda’s life was different and richer and happier until the time for Dix’s commencement—and departure—drew near. With her heart heavier and her smile coming more slowly, Linda checked off the days on her calendar. And each time she saw Dix she waited for him to speak, to say something that would make all this sweet enchantment real so that if this were to be all she ever had to look back on, it would have a semblance of substance and not a vague dream. But Dix did not speak, save of himself. He was going to Europe. Business was something that “didn’t mean much to a college man unless he inherited a good spot.” He thought he would try to develop his voice. He thought perhaps a year in Rome . . . tt tt tt “ A whole year?” Linda’s heart -TV was in her eyes at last, and the thing that Dix had tried to prevent, had tried to escape from within himself, was there. He was only a boy. He was ashamed that he felt so moved, ashamed that he didn’t want to leave her. He hadn’t wanted to care. “It will be only a year, Linda, and then I’ll come back. Will you wait? . . . will you still remember me?” “I’ll wait for ever and ever,” she said, rubbing her nose on the rough tweed of his coat. That was the way he left her to weeks and months that lengthened with waiting, with nothing but little vague notes filled with talk of music. He was passionately involved with his music, as he was always to be. He told her of his social life and she tried to read between the lines. She knew Dix and she knew girls. But there were no other girls for him. The thing she had to fear was vastly more formidable.
