Asks Advice On Changing
Balky Suitor
Dislike of Marriage Needs Sympathetic Treatment, Jane Says.
Jane Jordan will throw more light on your problems by her answers to your letters in this column.
PEAR JANE JORDAN— . What would you advise a 29-year-old woman to do who is in love with a man who doesn’t want to marry? The man is very considerate at times, except for the fact that he has gone with the woman so long that he expects her to be domestic, settle down, stay home and entertain him although he doesn’t offer marriage. Both have had unhappy marriages when younger and were disgusted with marriage, but she is so in love with him, and things are so much more ideal and congenial now that she feels they could make a go of it. . The man has no bad habits, is ambitious, industrious and clean cut. He says he will go all through life with her and give - her half of anything he has, but that she shouldn’t expect legal ties. She doesn’t want to give him up, but feels that she shouldn't give up dances and] other men friends unless they do consider marriage, for she would only be hurt in the end and out of circulation. Would you say it
|
was worth the sacrifice to give him his way in hopes of winning his favor for life? Can such a woman win in sticking to such a . man or is he worth it? WAITING. |
ANSWER—First of all the woman | should try to. understand the man's | aversion to marriage and, through | her sympathetic management, help | him to understand it, too. One unhappy union is not sufficient in itself to cause his revolt against social forms although it did arouse all his ~ prejudices and furnish him with a plausible excuse for dodging social responsibility. Other people including yourself, have had unhappy marriages without blaming the institution of marriage for their failures. Why does he seek to place the blame . for personal inadequacy on the law? If he is at all thoughtful he will see that the wish to yell “I won't” to society’s “Thou shalt” smacks of the nursery. It is a stubborn _ little boy’s reaction against authority. He may be willing to assume responsibility as long as it "isn’t compulsory, but he wishes to reserve the right to walk out on a situation as soon as it becomes irksome. This isn’t the mark of a strong person at all, but simply an indication of personal cowardice.
' This explanation is far too simple to cover the whole ground. There is the fear of a deep experience to be considered which some people try to avoid by keeping their emotional ties casual. + Upon close inspection the revenge motive rears its ugly head. Some men revenge themselves on one woman by hurt- | ing another. His revenge may not be inspired by his former wife at all but by his mother, whose claims of ownership were too stifling in youth. The element of cruelty is unmistakable in the man who wishes to isolate the woman whose society he prefers from the approval and companionship of her own social group. Alf these hidden reasons for anti-social behavior are hard to unearth in one’s self and you will encounter stiff resistance when you try to drag them from their burial grounds. He will need your sympathetic comprehension, not your righteous: condemnation. I should not advise you to jar him with a scene in which you stand as stern accuser instead of kindly interpreter. Bit by bit you can convince him that you cannot go hand in hand with a man inclined to run from life, but must search for a partner who meets it with courage, who can ‘build a full life upon socially ac"ceptable standards, who is not in revolt against reality but who fights it with fair methods. If he cannot follow you it is his bad luck. Leave him to get what he can from a life of self-centered felicity. JANE JORDAN.

Bright beets, radishes and turniy
“green vegetables” print one of the most interestingly colorful of
the midseason. The wide girdle,
hemline are finished with a band of silk in contrasting color. BY MARIAN YOUNG
NEW YORK, Jan. 19 (NEA)—Lowly beets, carrots and radishes from a vegetable stand...spicy pinks and old-fashioned nosegays from an postage stamps from near and far .. make the pretties, gayest, newest silk prints you ever saw.
English garden...
Under your fur coat wear a beau-¢ tifully, but simply cut new frock that has a hint of springtime about it. Have it short-sleeved even if your arms do get cold when you take off your coatf. Have it sleek and trim and tailored, soft and feminine or quaint and peas-ant-like with a full skirt, tight bodice and lace edging at the neckline. But have it! And have it of silk—printed silk. This is the month when your spirits as well as your wardrobe need just such a sartorial tonic. : However, a “print for January” isn’t an extravagance if you pick one that will be fashionable all spring and summer. The dark silk crepe, printed with colorful figurines, which is a charming anachronism this time of year, will be a veritable uniform next summer. Put it aside for a few weeks right after you buy your spring suit. Then bring it forth again in all its glory,
Small Prints Best
Tiny prints are best for day time. Large, splashy ones for evening. Paisley prints are widely discussed at the moment. But if you want one, buy it immediately before they get too popular. How about some shiny patent leather pumps and a shiny black patent purse right now? Colored patent shoes are talked about a good deal, too. By Easter, every smart wardrobe will include at least one pair, probably more. They come in such luscious tones as mulberry, slate blue, mustard yellow, raspberry and cherry red, pearl-white (a lovely grayish, off-white shade), moss green, turquoise, rust, salmonpeach. To give your wardrobe a lift, substitute matural doeskin gloves for the black ones you've been wearing day after day. Your midseason stockings ought to be at least one shade lighter (golden tan, maybe) than those you bought before Christmas. Wear a frivolous, bright scarf, tied in a bow under your chin. Beige is the color of the moment. Incidentally, it will be as smart to match your accessories to your suit or dress and coat next spring as it will be to mix three or four colors in one ensemble. Designers are divided on the subject. Some say to wear navy gloves, hat, shoes and purse with a navy suit. Others suggest yellow gloves, hag and shoes of natural tan and a red hat. Make your own choice.

Solution to Previous Problem By W. E. M’KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary
Bee players long ago learned that when, to make a contract, they must find a certain favorable distribution of the cards, there is only one thing to do, and that is to play for that distribution. What does it matter, in trying to make a contract, if the hand goes down one trick more than it would have if the declarer had been willing to submit to what he thought was a bad break and take a loss on the chance that a good break would give him the contract? As a matter of fact it is just such situaticns that give players the opportunity to make the hands about which bridge lovers iike to

read—overcoming obstacles: that for the moment appear impossible. North, declarer on today’s hand, had just such a problem. He found the. way to solve it, and this is to his credit, for his 10th trick was waiting for him all the time, although not in the exact place where less careful players would .look for it. > When dummy was .spread after the opening lead of the king of diamonds, North saw. that he could gain little from the bidding, except the probability of a successful club finesse. But, as dummy had only one club, this was not enough to give him his tenth trick. The second round of diamonds was ruffed, and North took the chance of finding the king of spades in the East hand. The finesse of the queen lost to the king and West returned a heart, which was won with dummy’s yueen. A club was returned from dummy, and West won and led another heart. North now led four more rounds- of trump, and West found the task of protecting both spades and clubs impossible. An effective squeeze had been developed through taking advantage of the position of outstanding key cards. (Copyright, 1937," NEA Service, Inc.)

Must Thrill Parents "loo
Children Feel Better When Father Watches.
By OLIVE ROBERTS EARTON
“Mom, aren’t you goin: to come tonight?” asks Bob unea:ily. “You never see our team play anywhere. And where’s dad? He alviys has to work the very nights I wit him to do something.” |
Mother tried to look surprised. “Why, yes, indeed, I'm c¢iining. Do you think I went to the rouble of getting all that outfit foi! you, and then not go to see hai well it plays?” } “Oh, darn the clothes, fom. You know what I mean.” But ob looked pleased just the same. But Dad. Where is he?” i “He spoke to me abou: tonight,” was the thoughtful and not quite truthful answer. “I kngi he'll de sorry, He is so proud of vou. But I will have to do for both of us this time, dear.” “Well, 1 want him to be sure about the 20th. That's the big play-off with Hulton. It's far mire important than this. I'll speik to ‘him about that.”
An Old Story |
Bob went off early, Ifaving his mother to finish up the [dishes before she dragged her tired bones upstairs to get ready for . the basketball game she hat entirely forgotten, and that slie¢ wished had never been invent¢il in general. She did not care much for sports, and understood less. .But every night that Bob had played, both John and she hac managed to wiggle out of goilig. True, both of them were tied when night Tame, and John was on duty at his drug store every other evening. He wanied to relax on the nights he Stayed at home. i They had gone througli it all before, when Myrtle weit in for athletics. And they hag traveled on busses here and thers, following the team to other Ligh school towns, partly to chaperone their daughter, and to show :in interest in her hobby. :l Many a time in sun er they had gone apout to swimming contests, to see spindiy legged youths and hearty girls get badges pinned on them. Once, 1'ie terribly hot day they had stayeti at home, Mpyrle had won the bijigzest race. She had never forgotte:: or quite forgiven that. Now Myr le was off at college and was as (razy over science as she had buen about sports. : i Happy Solutior:
Well, it was almost inipossible to warm over what had beeii at most, a lukewdrm enthusiasm. And, there were 10 more years of iil ahead as far as Bob was concerned. From now until he was thrijigh with college, he would be up in his ears in it. There wasn’t a thing he skipped. And she and J hn would have to pretend .to be ill worked up about men on base:| or yard lines or goals. | Could she face it? Ste brushed her hair and put on somis powder. Then her hat and coat. !Jownstairs she went to the telephoric. “John? Say, John, cali you let Proctor take charge thire? Bob has a game on. You oiizht to go and see him play. Wiat? You hate it? I'm surprised. liou're getting old. Now, you step right over here and go with me. [You don't see what I like about iti Why, I wouldn't miss seeing Bo: play for anything in the world. | Coming? That's better. Hurry up.’ And Bob, spotting them in- the crowd, never let on. Buf deep inside him there was a glo®. Everything was right with his world. (Copyright, 1937, NEA Sery ice, Inc.)
