Arguments For Living Alone Still True

By MARJORIE H. ROULSTON IF YOU HAVE lived alone at some previous time, you probably did so from choice.

Now, when you are facing the you are

loss of a loved one, doing="it from necessity, which is a very different matter. But all the arguments in favor of this mode of life are still true and years of discretion will add quite a few. First, you don't have to Mrs. Roulston be so all-out chic anymore. You can forget those hard-to-wear extremes of fashion, those little numbers that the fancy designers with the almost-French names dream up and that take so much living up to. They probably wouldn't look right now anyway, if they ever did. (Half of the women who wear them shouldn't.) You don’t have to run around town looking for a trafficstopping hat.

State AAUW Sets

The American Association of University Women will have its state convention Apr. 28 in Terre Haute. Convention dates are Apr. 28 and 29 with head-

quarters in the Terre Haute House. Dr. Helen Dalton Bragdon,

general director, will address the evening session Apr. 28. “Our Stake in Education” will be the theme on which Prof. B. L. Dodds, director of the Division of Education and Applied Psychology, Purdue University, will speak at the luncheon

You will, in fact, be dressed in much better taste if you wear smart, classic suits and dresses which were as good last year as this and may be even better tomorrow.

You will be happier in shoes of the conservative last you have found to be comfortable and you will soon -collect an adequate wardrobe of these in various colors you wear, not bothering with the little cut-out and built-up jobs on which the younger generat:icn teeters about. You will still want to look as charming as possible, of cours Actually you will probably lo a lot smarter than most of t ungifted, but struggling la who- try for, and miss, a loo f high fashion. Clothes can Decome much more of a pleasure and much less of ‘a problem. We are not recommending illness, but if you have one, it is very comforting indeed to crawl into bed with no feeling that it is your duty to be brave. A day or two in bed can be extremely pleasant and may halt the progress of some ailment that might have been very uncomfortable. If you've been married a long time, or even a short one, for

Shortly before the war, Marjorie Hillis wrote a wise. and gay best-seller called “Live Alone and Like it.” Then she became Mrs. Roulston, stopped living alone. ; After 10 years of happy married life, her - husband died. Now she finds herself alone again. Here she writes about her new problems with wisdom, tact and common sense. This is the eighth of 12 articles from her new book, “You Can Start All Over,” just published by Harper & Brothers.

that matter, the martyr complex may be so strongly developed that you'll feel guilty about not doing whatever you'd planned to do, but you'll be foolish if you don’t conquer that feeling promptly. Being a martyr may be splendid, for a good cause (like a husband) but a bridge engagement or an appointment for a fitting doesn’t fall into- that category. Most things, probably, can be done just as well day after tomorrow. The same self-indulgent viewpoint applies to breakfast in bed. if it's possible and you enjoy it, as who doesn’t? We are a

When You Have To

firm believer in rising when your husband rises and making his breakfast a cheery beginning to the day—but who is helped by this Spartan act when you live alone? » » w AMONG THE really superlative pleasures of this time of life is the knowledge that you don’t have to try to be more athletic than you actually are. Looking back at your married life, you may recall hours of poor and painful tennis, terrifying afternoons on horseback, and cold and uncomfortable camping trips in the woods. You're glad you spent them as you did. But now that you're alone, it's nice to know that, along about 40, people give up trying to mold you. They take you or leave you as you are, and you can read a good book while the rest of the party perspires on the golf.links or gossip under a beach umbrella while they battle with the breakers, for which let us all be thankful. A final joy that often comes at this stage, is a change in vour feeling about the pressing need to economize. Of course, if you have to work for a living or can barely

Whether these incomes are large or small, the women in question are wise if they live on a scale that allows some leaway of luxury. They no longer have the old familiar feeling that they must save for.

Or maybe they just buy their first bedjacket or string of cultured pearls. It may even be that, for the first time, they have someone come in regularly to do the cleaning. They are also the great numbers of them-—who do incalculable good through their work and their contributions in the field of charity. Whichever their role, more power to them, and we hope they have a very nice time.
