Fashion Tips to the Homemaker Who Is Considering Fall Clothes

WHEN THE FIRST COOL DAYS of August come along, the lady of the house begins to think about a fall wardrobe. The stores have been showing fall merchandise for sometime but these first nippy breezes really get women in the buying mood. Here are a few tips on the general fashion scene for autumn which will interest the Mrs. or Miss: The fall collections are full of vitality, life and color. While there ifs a general tendency, not a real trend, toward a slim skirt and much torso interest, there are many classic tailored suits, many natural!

JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN—My husband has the most contrary dis= position of any man I ever met. If I want to go to the movies he wants to stay at home. If I want to stay home he wants to go. It has come to the point where I always suggest the opposite of what I really want to do and that works very well except that I don’t feel very happy about it. His motto seems to be “whatever it is, I'm against it,” and he always takes the unpopular side of any argument. His most violent reaction comes when somebody says “no” to him. It is like waving a red flag in front of a bull. If I say, “take off your coat, it’s too hot,” he leaves it on and sweats. If I say “put on your coat, it's too cold,” he leaves it off and freezes. Sometimes he gets frantic and says he won't be hen-pecked, but when I maintain a neutral attitude toward everything we get along very well. Away from home he is a very sociable person, the life of the party. What's wrong with him, anyway? PUZZLED, 2 ” = =n o n Answer—My guess is that he had a bossy mother who brought him up on “Johnny don't,” and he's a marked man. Usually the men who fear being hen-pecked most actually were hen-pecked as a child, or saw their fathers hen-pecked and resolved never to be in the same situation. Someone in his childhood must have frustrated him at every turn and interfered with everything he wanted to do. In desperation he defended his independence by opposing every command. At any rate, somewhere along the line he formed the habit of saying “I won't” to life and has carried his infantile rebellion over into his marriage. The fact that he is happier and more amenable in a social setup outside of home suggests that in his bovhood he had best times away from home. He feels a sense of release, or freedom from domination which makes him more human. Study his mother or her substitute. If she is not living, draw him out on the subject and see what sort of memories he has. Try to avoid anything that would cause him to identify you with his mother. Explain the situation to him and convince him that he no lenger has to fight for his own rights since you have no intention of interfering with his freedom to do as he chooses. All you want is a little polite consideration for your wishes, too. JANE JORDAN,
