Marjorie Hillis, author of 22 books that come in the “how to” category, talks with the same sparkle that she writes and, inciden-
tall
, lives alone herself and likes it very much. Busily autographing
sta Ks of “Live Alone and Like it,” “Orchids on Your Budget” and “Corned Beef and Caviar” in the offices of the Bobbs Merrill Co., her publishers, Saturday, she admitted she practices pretty much
what she preaches.
She lives alone in a four-room apartment in New York and has a full-time maid. She does most of her writing in bed because when she gets up she “always postpones starting and gets involved with
things like ordering or cleaning a closet or something.”
She writes
- in long hand because she thinks the use of a typewriter makes her
style jerky.
Despite living alone, she never has eaten a meal in the kitchen for, aside’from aesthetic reasons; she likes to hear the radio while
she dines.
While she can’t name any definite instances of a girl's
“getting the man with the meal,” she says it's pretty usual for the
man to come back for another meal.
She adores negligees and owns
seven, although she regrets that “some of them are a little tired at
the moment.” 2 8 8

Miss Hillis arrived Saturday morning wearing a smart purple wool crepe dress with stitched diagonal pockets and brilliant butterfly clips at the neck and waist.

She can’t wait to send all her clothes She is having a “permanent” next week and then
she wants to have one of her lazy week-ends. She had some experience writing titles for “Vogue,” which
helped in conjuring up the arresting titles for her books.

to use a title that told exactly what the book was about." histories generously sprinkled through her. books are bas

people she knows, but changed enough to keep her from losing all her friends. Writing books on her own has lifted quite a few of the inhibitions she had when she began to write for magazines, she said. When she and Bertina Foltz, the former Indianapolis girl who collaborated with her on “Corned Beef and Caviar,” were working on the book they hardly ever saw one another. They made an outline . and then spent hours on the telephone in the evenings. Miss. Foltz supplied most of the recipes and menus. . -Miss Hillis paid quite a tribute to Miss Foltz, when she ad-. dressed a large audience in the William H. Block Co.s auditorium Saturday afternoon. Miss Foltz, hostess and beauty editor of “Vogue,” . knows all there is to know about food and carries out her theories. Miss Foltz, who is Mrs. Elliott Smith in private life, is the daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Herbert Foltz of Indianapolis.
Important people get so eloquent about food that Miss Hillis
thinks there may be some connection between good brains and good - food. It’s the pretty dull ones who aren’t interested in what they ’
eat. She says it’s foolish to be too highbrow about her last book because it's about food. “Corned Beef and Caviar” comes in the cook book class. Her infallible test of a book is “is it worth movined and she slyly adds that her books are so small they're no

Prepare Chart On Wedding Law
Mrs. Paul V. Pord, Kokomo chairman of the department of government and legal status of women for the Indiana League of Women Voters, has prepared a chart showing the change in numbers of marriages in various Indiana counties. The chart is to be used by local leagues in their study of state marriage law needs. In her letter to local department chairmen accompanying the chart and study guide, Mrs. Ford. said, “I have chosen the years 1925 and 1935 as two fairly representative years. With the figures for these two years, I have attempted to give a picture of one phase of the marriage law situation in Indiana.
She added that a comparison of figures for these two years showing marriage licenses granted in Indiana must take into account that in the intervening period: Michigan and Ohio, both bordering Indiana, passed waiting period marriage license laws. “If in conjunction with a map of the state we stucly the totals of the licenses granted in counties hordering on or situated close to either of these states, we find an increase of 10,178 marriages for 18 such counties,” she said “While for the other 74 counties not affected by location by these laws, there was the small increase of 4342. In 1925 the border county marriages number about one-sixth of the marriages of the state. In 1935 they had increased to more than one-third of the total.
“When we consider the fact that these figures do not take into consideration: the serious effect of the new Illinois marriage law of 1937, which has resulted in a tremendous increase of - the number of marriages, particularly in the northern counties, we realize that this problem of & suitable marriage law for Indiana is one that should be given careful consideration by every citizen of the sta Mrs. Ford further stated that her department would study the situation thoroughly and then recommend to the League that they sup-
port an improved marriage law for’
Indiana at the League's convention to be held in Indianapolis, May 17, 18, and 19, 1938.
