Aunt Seeks Advice for Young Pair
Mother-in-Law Is Living With Niece; Nephew Leaves Mate.
Jane Jordan will help vou with vour problems by her answers to your questions in this column.
EAR JANE JORDAN-—-I have two brothers. One has a daughter and one a son whose mothers are dead. My brothers have remarried and these young people come to me with their problems. Here is the daughter's problem: She has been happily married for two years. Now her mother-in-law has come to the city and the young people have to pay her board as they live in one room. My niece thinks her mother-in-law should find work as she is only 40, very young looking and active. She is well educated
and could get something but she |
never looks for work. I advised her to have a talk with her mother-in-law and not to get peeved, but just to tell her they can’t pay her board any longer and that she must find some sort of work. My niece has a wonderful husband, but his mother has left two men. Now comes the boy who is 21 years | old and married to a girl the same age, from whom he is separated. He works in the office with a woman | 15 years older. She is divorced and | has a son of 14. My nephew lost his place in the office on her aeccount and she took him in her home. I offered him a home, but she wouldn't hear of his leaving. My brother asked me to talk to | this young couple, and my nephew's wife came to me with his consent. I went with the wife to the other | woman, but she won't give my | nephew up. | My brother could take him in his | store, but won't unless he gives the other woman up. His father-in-law has offered to help him if he goes back to his wife. Should I take this young man in my | home until he can find work or should I just shut the door and not bother? I feel these young people | need advice. PUZZLED. | ANSWER—Wouldn't it be better | for your niece to sell her husband |
|
on the idea that his mother ought | to work for her own board? Men are apt to be very sensitive | about their mothers and it would | be safer for the girl to have a com- | plete and thorough understanding | with her husband before she takes | things into her own hands. | Besides the mother will not resent | the suggestion from her son as much | as she will from her daughter-in- | law, or if she does, she will get over it quicker. I certainly agree with you that the mother ought to | work. I believe I would let the young man alone to work out his own problem as he sees fit. It was his wife who came to you with her problem; the boy did not ask for advice, I am afraid he will interpret any move on your part as an intrusion, The fact that you accompanied his wife in a visit to the other woman will make him feel that the two of you are trying to manage him. He'll hardly put up with that. You offered him your home once | and he didn't accept, but he Knows | it’s open to him. Now about all you can do is to keep friendly so that | if the time ever comes when he | needs your help he will feel free to | ask for it. Until he asks for aid it is useless to proffer it.

| Jackets and Boleros in Subtle Off-Shades Will Be| Club Meetings Slub Nub,’ to Be Intro-
duced at Revue Today and Tomorrow
Just a step ahead of the spring robin comes a parade of the sea-
fabrics . . . all are to be shown in a today and tomorrow at the Wm. H.
Box coats, the image of your grandmother's reefer— | town and country stvles in flannel—dressmaker suits of soft, spongy
formal fashion revue at 2:30 p. m. Block Co. Auditorium.
It’s to be a suit season as the show will evidence and shorter jackets,
| fitted lines and boleros are the darlings of the hour. | woolens come in delicious off -shades,
whose very names are enticing: | Pottery beige, guardsman blue, cop- | pertone, Brighton green, Doric red, | tile gray. All these colors are subtle, elusive, heathiery. Brown, gray or beige is mixed with green or | blue or pink to give a shimmering underwater effect. | Let these distinctive suits (above) | guide you in your choice of dressy | and country styles. The three-| piece number (left) is a pinch hit- | ter for the season between winter | coats and slim fitted jackets and | It is of a new fabric labeled “slub nub,” in a luscious sky blue | color. Saddle leather buttons and belt trim the fitted jacket, with its | side-wise flap pockets and small | turnover collar. The skirt mola | the figure with its straight line cut and the ensemble is topped with a swagger coat of seven-eighth trimmed with a Russian The stitched felt pill- | dle leather shade. |
Schiaparelli Chooses Tweed |
For business or shopping select | a suit like this Schiaparelli adap- | tation (right). It is fashioned of | a soft, loosely woven tweed of vais | colored flecks. Note the simple, | collarless neckline which may be | dressed up to any occasion by the | addition of a soft crepe scarf. | Chamois gloves and scarf accent the | golden tones of the tweed. Navy
| accessories of belt, buttons, hat and
bag carry the spring motif. | Beige sets the pace in the color | world. Especially beige kasha. An | outstanding three-piece outfit, | carrying out this dictum, is com- | posed of a knee-length box coat | worn carelessly over a snug little | jacket, placarded with pockets, and a close-fitting skirt beneath. |
An unusual golf dress, to be|
modeled in the show, is of bluish- |
gray kasha flecked with brown. | Over the two-piece effect is worn!
| a jacket of soft brown suede which |
buttons to the dress, at the neck- | line. | Celors Contrast |
Cclor contrasts are claims to | fame in suits this year. There's a black basket-weave skirt topped |
with a short dusty pink jacket that |
in the revered neckline. | Mannish suits, not too tailored, | are harbingers of spring, 1037, if| they are fashioned of sharkskin. Gray is a favorite color and dimin- | utive uncreased revers date many of the styles. Bretons, worn far back on the | head, are the superb answer to the hat problem for suit wear. Towering hat crowns are sinking to lower levels and flower-bedecked toques with crowns bound round with bright veils are the edict for Easter wear.
Plaids in Profusion
Keep your eyes open for plaids. They are back again in profusion, and will be noticeable at this showing in bolero styles and short boxy coats. Among the society matrons who will model the springwear, along with store mannequins, are Mesdames John K. Ruckelhaus, Horace Nordyke and George Kuhn. Miss Helen McNiece, fashionist, will talk Ne importance of the spring suit.

Schoolboys Are Taught Cooking, Too
Michigan Teacher Has Class of 15 Which Shows Aptitude.
By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Service Writer Boys will be boys. grove, Mich, that means high school youngsters can spin a skillet, too. Miss Iola Clark, their teacher, reports that her class of 15 boys in cooking shows natural aptitude. Why not? Boys eat just the same as girls. They might as well prepare to pe independent—learn to cook for themselves until they are ready to assume a wife. And perhaps baked ham might be called one of the easiest and most profitable dishes for high school culinarists to master. Especially when it is cooked

Baked Ham With Sunshine Fruit (12 Servings) One 9-pound ham, !; cup brown sugar, '2 cup vinegar, 1 stick cine namon, 6 sun-dried prunes, 'z cup sun-ripened crushed pineapple, and 4 sun-dried apricots. Scrub ham with stiff brush. Place sugar and vinegar, all the fruits and cold water in large kettle. Submerge the ham. Cover. Bring water slowly to just below boil, and continue to simmer until done. Allow 25 minutes simmering for each pound of ham. When done, leave in the water. Stand over night in those fruit and sugar flavors for at least 12 hours. To bake, first remove skin, then with a sharp knife, cut off some of the fat. Rub well with brown sugar mixed with fine dry crumbs. Arrange whole cloves in geometric pattern. Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for 1 hour. That's ham. Ask the boys. Beef tongue arouses the interest of future husbands.

MONDAY, FEB. 15, 1937 Miss Karnes’ Troth Announced (Don’t Shout
At Children; Is Warning
‘Cookie Thefts’ Are Not Real Crimes, Parents Are Reminded.
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Jimmy hadn't done much. I mean that if you or I had helped ourselves to the fig cakes that were being saved for tea, we would not think so. Not even if we had been teld they mustn't be touched. If we had come in ravenously hungry and had beheld those cook=ies so temptingly laid out on a plate, our consciences wouldn't even have stirred in their sleep. But Jimmy was branded. He was called a thief, a heart-breaker and % criminal, So angry were his aunt and mother that they pre= dicted something would happen to make him pay up for his deed. If mother had smacked Jimmy and told him he ought to be ashamed, he'd have bawled a lit= tle, looked sheepish and remorseful (perhaps) and gotten it out of his system by going out and snowballing other youngsters to whistle back his self-respect. But bitter tongues lay you bare. They inch off every atom of self= respect a person has. They not only flay but slay. And Jimmy was bleeding.
Stole Cakes by Impulse
When all the ladies had gone and the tea was pronounced a suc= cess, aunt and mother forgot about the cakes. Just once did Jimmy's aunt refer to them and Jimmy cringed. He felt that he never, never would be able to stand it if they mentioned it once again. He decided that if they did, he would run off. All this, perhaps, was foolish of Jimmy. Why didn’t he say, “All this fuss about a few little measly cakes!” Why wasn't he hardboiled? Why didn’t he wait until their backs were turned and swipe the three
{ left?
Because he was not a ‘“premeds= He had obeyed im=sudden temptation and was going against his conscience even as he ate. Stolen fruits are not sweet to the moral. They are bitter, intensely so, to adult or child with well-developed inhibitions. Good Faith Attacked he did,
Besides everything even
| things that lie in the category of
normal childish misconducts, were rubbed in and his good faith atetacked. Acts themselves were never punished by a bit of retribution, but evrything was laid to his failure as a “person.” In all his life Jimmy had done no more than break a window or two, not get up when called, track in mud, lose books or caps, or hook a banana off the sideboard. Sins of omission and commission that may be forgiven in a child, plus, of course, talks on “goodness” and right thinking and the average penalties. Average penalties, not soul-searing ones unfair to a child. All his life he will feel overguilty. The world 1s full of people like that, good, useful people who eat themselves up and get sick by morbid conscience. It is right to feel guilty for real wrongs and many children do not feel guilty enough. But why rob the Jimmies of all self-respect and fill them with agonies beyond their years? They don’t outgrow them. They go through life feeling that for their very existence they should apolo=gize to society. (Copyright, 1937.
