~~ ter yesterday.
_ A GIRL CAME home from school one day. Let us say one girl ‘and .a special day, although her experience is conimon enough.
This is what she had to do to help, the minute she entered the
door, Wash the food-hardened dishes left from lunch. Empty the
garbage. Take the pork chops back to the store and complain. Go tell a neighbor that her mother needs the pattern back at once.
Answer the door and tell the bill collector that her mother wasn’t e,
All the unpleasant tasks seemed ta be left for her. She developed
® regular obsession against housework and domesticity. No wonder.
8he amde up her mind to leave when she finished school. : ® 2 » 8 » 8 > ANOTHER GIRL CAME home to this: An immaculate house, & pink-and-blue bedroom, her dresses pressed, shoes cleaned, fruit and cookies in the pantry, a solicitols mother asking, “How are you, dear? You must be tired after all that studying. Now go out and have a good time. All out of money? Why, I gave you'a quar=I know, it goes fast. Well—take some more from my purse and treat May. I hope you have no studying to do tonight.” These hypothetical girls may live right next door to each other, look about the same when they go out, have a family background of equal incomes. As usual, one never can tell what homes are _ like or how they differ in their running. . This second little girl is as unhappy as the first. She is spoiled and selfish, of course. She grumbles if she has to do an errand. -She talks of being poor and says she is bored. She is going to marry a rich man some day off somewhere away from her little town. Not once does this child have any unpleasant job to do, or any
Job. She curls her lip at anything to be done with her hands... She
ean’t stand using the same towel twice. The sight of the kitchen * after a meal upsets her. She uses the other door entirely. Finicky and useless, and it’s not her fault. # un 8
So—WE HAVE THE extremes. This is bad in both cases. One girl a slavey, the other ‘a drone. Neither one likes her home. In une case justified, in the other not so. Yet the effect is the same. Mix experiences of children. Make them a blend of work and play, of problems and protection, of responsibility and freedom. : It is essential for girls to grow up with a wholesome regard for home-making and housekeeping.
JANE JORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN—Three months ago I married a man against my parents’ will and we moved far away from my home. He is a musician and loves music very much. His music takes him to other towns to play, and every day he leaves me early and doesn’t | get home until late at night. I am left alone. 2 = I can’t ask him to give up his music but it makes me bitter to know that we've only been married three months and he is away all the time. I used to go with a fellow who was well to do and he was broken up when I married. I could have been happy with him if I hadn’t met my husband whom I love very dearly. ; I've thought of stepping out on my husband because I get so lonely, and if I did it would be with this fellow. I've even thought of ‘leaving him, but we made solemn vows to each other when we married and I can’t bring myself to break them. The band is planning on going West in the spring, but if I go along it would be twice as bad as it is now. I think my place is with my husband but most of the time I haven't one, I can't get a job as he won’t let me work. . What should I do? Go out with someone else? He is 23 and I am 20. : YQUNG MARRIED WIDOW, Eo ® 8 = 2 8
Answer—Aren’t you a pretty spoiled young lady? You make yourself sound like a person who can’t bear any sort of deprivation. You were lucky enough to marry the man whom you love which is better fortune than some girls have. I've had plenty of letters from girls who say, “I'd rather have an hour with the man I love than a lifetime with anyone elise.” . . Evidently you do not love your husband that much. At least you can’t sacrifice your own pleasure for the sake of his pro fession, which is your bread and butter, too. : Plenty of women marry men who are obliged to travel for a living. Their husbands get home once a week, once a month, and sometimes but once in two or three months. How do you suppose they manage to stand it? Your husband gets home every night. The wife who sees her husband once a month would be overjoyed to be in your shoes, yet you are considering stepping out with another man to entertain yourself. I do think your husband is wrong not to let you get a job. You ought to be busy at something all day long so that time wouldn’t hang so heavily on your hands. Some women can keep themselves busy without a job, but you appear to have no such resources at your command, : : As I said before, I am afraid you are a spoiled young lady who expects everything to go her way in life. IFew, if any, are able to arrange reality to their liking. Most of us .learn from necessity to give up something for the thing we want most. This is your task. Do it as well as_you can. : - JANE JORDAN.

: PATTERN 885 ALL-DAY FROCK IS YOUNG, -VIVACIOUS
When your calendar says, “busy day ahead,” youll want to jump into a frock that’s becoming, up-to=
the-second in style, yet practicallyminded. Claire Tilden’s Pattern 885 is just the dress—one of the prettiest and simplest-to-stitch styles you'll ever meet. There's young charm in the square neck; there's flattery jn the bodice with its center front panel that’s so attractive ac= cented with ric-rac or ruffling. Cut the panel on the bias or straight, | and you might trim it with novelty buttons to match the edging and the belt buckle. The side sections of the bodice are held in with gathers for well-fitting lines. There's a bias-cut to the two-piece, flaring skirt, set onto the bodice in a slimming front point. Have . the short sleeves straight, or tuck them on the inner sides to allow softness outside, with scalloped edges. Keep the Sewing Guide close at hand, buy a few yards of bright cotton, and you'll have a smart all-day dress in no time at all! : Pattern 885 is cut in misses’ and women’s sizes 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 30, 32, 34, 38, 40 ‘and 42. Size 16 requires 3%; yards 35-inch fabric and 13% yards ric-rac. Send orders to Pattern Department, Indianapolis Times, 214 W. Maryland St. Send fifteen cents (15¢) in coins for this pattern. Write clearly size, name, address and style number. -
