JANE JORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN-—-My hushand and 1 have been married about a year. My brother lives in the same city and he is to be married very soon. My husband refuses to go to the wedding He gives no reason other than he just won't, Tt isn't because he doesn't like my brother, but if he did not, I still do not think that should cause him not to go All the time we have lived here my husband never would go to Visit my brother and his girl, and I always have to make excuses They did visit us quite often but never now because they say we owe them a visit. They know nothing of my husband's refusal to visit them. 1 haven't gone to see my brother either since my husband won't, but if he doesn't go to the wedding, which will cause much hard feeling, 1 will go without him. Ts this the right thing to do? Of course there will be excuses to make and he says, “make ne excuses for me.” But what can I do? TI don’t want to hurt my brother and I love my husband, too! What can I say or do to make him change his mind and go? Why is he like this? Everything would be swell if he weren't like this, HOPING. Answer—Of course vou can't make a grown man do something he doesn't want to do. Your husband is behaving in an extremely childish and inconsiderate manner, The fault lies somewhere in his upbringing. Evidently he was not taught to observe the amenities of life or to respect the feelings of others, He is wrapped up in himself, Well, all vou can do is to give up and go by yourself, Now that the man is so stubbornly set against going, the more you say the more you harden his resolve. Like a child he has made up his mind not to do what he has been told, and he is enjoying the attention it gets him. Probably his mother ordered him around too much and he got into the habit of resisting anvthing she wanted to do, particuarly if it involved consideration for other children in the family. Like many men he reacts to the demands of any woman exactly as he reacted to the demands of his mother. It may be that he had a brother whom he did not like and has transferred his jealous feelings toward him onto your brother. Your brother's girl may remind him of a sister whom he liked to ignore. However it is, his attitude is & hang-over from childhood and & repetition of an earlier situation with a change of actors. You vo not have to pretend to like his rudeness, but after you have expressed your displeasure in no uncertain terms, vou can deprive him of the spotlight by ignoring his silly behavior completely. Question him sympathetically about his relationsihp to his own family ‘and perhaps the truth will out in & way that will make him realize what his motives are. Do not break up an otherwise satisfactory marriage on this one issue, JANE JORDAN.

Entire U. 8S. Must Face Jobles Problem to Solve It, Women Told
By MARIAN YOUNG
NEW YORK, Dec. 4 Seventh Ave Fashion Capital of America-—discusses the war in terms of the closing of the Paris dressmaking houses, Ever since the news that the great, couturiers of France have closed their doors was received in the 7000 factories, which employ about 200, 000 workers, there has been talk of nothing else. The “little men,” skipping lightly [over news from the Maginot Line, toss their heads and sav, as they always have, "We never pay any | Attention to Paris anyway. Paris jcouturiers can't dress American figures. You can imagine what happen to our business if we did ankle-length afternoon dresses.”
Bigger Ones Are Sad
The bigger fish in the billion-and-[a~half-dollar business, which, by the way, 1s New York's largest manufacturing industry, are sad. Just plain sad. “We have depended on Paris for mspiration and stimulation more than actual ideas,” they say. “Just as Paris has depended on us more for approval than actual cash. With Europe as well as Paris closed to us, getting five fresh ideas a vear is going to be tough,” But get five ideas they must five every vear. The success of the | fashion busimess lies in making every | woman want something new every {few months.
