“New Chintzes Apes! to the: Budget: They Are Low- Priced—and Washable

THE GREATEST ‘INCENTIVE to making your own slip covers

4s this season’s new collection of glazed chintzes.

Two. things a woman

gives a lot of thought to before she’s willing to dip the shears in the

- cloth ‘are should she risk her own handiwork on material that cost her;

_'& pretty penny, and is the result going | to be practical as to upkeep?

The new chintzes are reassuring ‘on both counts.

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am 18 and engaged fo a fine boy my own age. We have gone together for three years and are very much in love. About a month ago he left for the service and we are planning to marry in June. I know his parents will not give their permission. My mother and father said they wouldn’t try to keep us from being married, but they would only advise me against if. : We are saving money and are more than ready to settle down and ‘wait until this war is over when J we ean be together always. The only “%rouble is that we want to wait as Mr. and Mrs. Would we be making a mistake by going on with our plans? : TWO IN LOVE. Answer—Look at it this way: Marriage is more than a love affair. “It is a contract between adults. Whén a young man marries he agrees not only to love and cherish but to support a young woman for “better, for worse, in sickness and in health. This implies that he must have some experience in earning a * living" for two, not to mention children. It implies that he must have - some reserves to take care of the emergencies from which no life is free. A boy of 18 simply hasn’t had time to gain such experience or ac‘cumulate such reserves. In the event of an emergency, the only * thing he could do would be to fall ¢ back on parents for help. Let us take some examples from other walks of life. Employers, who ‘are not infallible, often promote young men to positions which are beyond their present capacities with ‘disastrous results. They cannot de‘mote the young men to their former status. All they can do is discharge them to start over somewhere else + with damaged self-esteem. A more exaggerated example is the boy who wants a car but can’t Mit until he earns the money; so simply takes one. The ability . %0 wait for the means to buy, or for the experience which one needs to Perform a.task, marks the dawn of maturity. It is one of the hardest Joscons youth has to learn. Your marriage will lose nothing by the renunciation of present de“‘gires in favor of a more secure future. On the contrary it will gain Jpecause you and your fiance have ained by assuming a more respon‘gible attitude. ‘Your parents know these things. They have no wish to ‘ghwart you in advising you to ‘wait ‘until you are better prepared for ‘fhe experience you so ardently “desire. y JANE JORDAN.

Some of them are as low as $1 a yard—and practically all are guaranteed washable. Not just any slip cover material you happen to .like carries such a guarantee, so be careful to check. : Flcral bouquet patterns in the lower price ranges are more lush as to line and color tones than their prices woiild indicate. Somebody did a good job of designing, keeping in mind that you might feel expansive about spring decorating and want to do ar slip cover or two in high style solid shades to pick up one of the floral tones. 7 sn Fabric Requirements THERE ARE A number, of small patterned fabrics, too, with early American feeling — a rose-and-stripe boudoir number, and several solids. These are 36 inches wide. Since we seem to gravitate automatically to the white background prints, . the washable feature is doubly welcome. Special successes

liant geraniums, a pattern of morning glories and a high-colored floral of tropical inspiration. There are delicate wheat-toned backgrounds, too, or blue, beige rose, green or gray. You'll need 20 yards of 36-inch fabric to slipcover a three-cushion sofa, 10 yards for a chair. ® # ”

Fabric for Screens

ANOTHER NEW GROUP of fabrics yowll want to look at eco-ordi-nates stripes and solids. Of cotton gabardine, they have sufficient body to tailor sprucely and the colors are good. The stripes are a stylized leaf motif in combination with plain stripes of graduated widths. Tones of green rand the yellows and grays are especially spring-y and fresh looking. Incidentally, if you're faced with re-doing a decorative screen, you might think in terms of fabric. Paper hangers, if you can find them, are discourgaing about taking on small jobs. Papering a screen is tedious, they say, and hardly worth the money involved. So you might try your. hand at fabric, easier for: the amateur screen coverer to handle and often less expensive.

Card Parties Booked

Two card parties are planned this week by the ladies’ society of the Saenger-Chor. The first will be at 2:30 p. m. tomorrow and ‘the second at 7:30 p. m. Sunday, in ‘the Saenger-Chor home, 13th st. and Park ave. Mrs. Paul Junius is president of the society.

_ But the conscription of manpower in Britain combs out all young women and those found in the governmeat and other training centers today are either very young or women between 35 and 50. Today the government is directing young girls into industry instead of into the services, which have reached satisfactory limits.

The government provides training centers and has converted technical schools and colleges into auxiliaries to give the inexperienced understanding of tools snd factory atmosphere.
