F dshions
By WILMA LA VILE

Now that reports of New Year
festivities are in from North and
South, from East and West, we
can collect them all together,
and get a splendid composite
picture of the evening mode Of
the moment. The rather
strange thing is that all stories
are so much alike. ColorS were
pretty much the same every
where, with styles differing only
for the sake of climate. New
York and Palm Beach saw the
same general fashions, as did
st. Moritz and washington.
Red Best Color
Everywhere there was an
enormous amount of white and
of black, used alone and some
times put together. There was
white trimmed with color, and
black trimmed with a vivid hue.
In fact the white-or.black-with-
color theme seems to be the
most important idea Of the mo-
ment. for it was seen probably
more than any other type OF
combination, and has been on
the increase for a month or so.
Red was the most predominant
color, both as trimming, and as
a single gown color, outside Of
white and black. The red range
runs from the wine tone to
pinks, but the real reds. border
ing on ruby tones, are the most
popular. There are a few smart
new green's, a few pale blues,
Splashes of other colors, and
that's about all. New York saw
a few new prints.
Rough Crepes Good
OF course there was no velvet
worn in the South, but there
was a good deal in Washington,
New York and other points
North. Otherwise, the clothes
were very much the same. Sat
ins, matelasse, chiffon and.
rough crepes were the popular
materials, while velvet was used
for wraps in all climeS. The
gowns were divided between two
types, the very simple, sleek
types, with no ornamentation at
all; the trimmed gowns, elabo-
rated by beading. strass, shoul-
der ruffS, or by the addition Of
a jacket.

There wasn't a shadow in his
eyes or a line of worry in his
face. He stood there, calmly
breaking their lives to pieces

knocking over a tower of build

The most unlucky thing that
ever happened to us was seeing
each other in Armbruster's
store last Christmas" He was

had left the offices Of McIn-

had let Kim out-who had fol-

You're leaving me for that
girl, Kim. You think you should
have married her instead Of
me, don't you?"
Il shouldn't have married
anybody" he said violently.
And don't try to hang all the
blame on her. Our married
life has been a. flop all along
and you know it as well as
I do. What do I get out Of
it, I'd like to know? I sit all
day in a two-by-four office,
waiting for lot of clients who
never come. I sit all evening
in this flat, staring at the

He swung round and started
down the narrow hall that led
to the sleeping rooms at the
back of the apartment.

Mary Faith followed him.
"Kim, you're just discouraged
tonight"
I'm just through" he cor
rected her. I'm all through.
And I'm getting out now while

No torture can possibly exist
which Is worse than that en-
dured by the drug addict. I
am referring, of course, to mar.
cotic drugs such as morphine,
heroin and cocaine in particu-
lar - what slang phraseology
designates simply a. "dope"-
but addiction to any drug, no
matter what it may be, is to
be avoided at all costs.
Narcotic drugs Of various
kinds have a legitimate place
in the treatment of our bodily
ills. Pain and suffering often
cannot be reduced except
through a powerful anodyne.
The wise physician, however, is
cautious in using such agen-
cies, and particularly cautious
in prescribing them for the pa.
tient to take himself. The doc
tor knows how insidiously a
drug habit is formed, and real
ICES full we'll that once such a
habit is definitely established
that the cure is even worse
than the disease that originally
called for its use.
Drug addicts are not con-
fined, however, to those who
have been racked with pain on
a sick bed. Often men and
women take to narcotics to
help forget their troubles, or
they are deliberately led into
the practice by some designing
criminal. Year afts' year dope
claims additional victimS-not
only adults being taken in. so
to speak, but even innocent
children!
State and Federal agcrtS try
their utmost to stop the illicit
traffic in narcotics. More and
more stringent laws are passed
as years go on, yet the practice
continues. In many States,
New York for instance, no per-
son is able to obtain a narcotic
from a drug store, either pure
or mixed with other drugs, with

Dear Mrs Beeckman:

should address the anniversary
cards to Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
Worthington and the birthday
cards to Mrs. Ruth Worthing'
ton.
What is the proper way Of
addressing these cards? B.
I agree with this gentleman
that it would be more con-
sistent to address the wedding
anniversary cards to those both
concerned: Mr.. and Mrs. Ed.
ward Worthington. When you
send out these cards in the
future, T do hope that you
will decide to do this.
The birthday cards would,
naturally be addressed only to
the person Having the birthday.
And please, please don't ad-
dress them with the use Of the
first name. The envelope
should be addressed with the

While season after season

And sun and storm their magic

It goes without saying that
almost all lovers, when the day
Of marriage arrives, honestly be-
lieve that their two lives are
thenceforward to be literally
merged, and that not the
smallest fleck of secrecy or lie
ceit is ever to be allowed to sift
into that ideal relationship.
Perfect Confidence
Some married lovers do, I am
sure, hold strictly to this stand

pen, and what does it probably
lead to?
Let me quote from a letter I
have just received:
"I have been married six
months. Lately a very nice boy
who works nights has been COM
ing in to see me in the after
moons. There is no harm in it.
We just kid each other.
"But he has made me promise
not to tell my husband and that
Is what worries me. 1t seems
silly to tell my boy friend he
can't come any more when he
has only kissed me few times,
but I am afraid If my husband
found out about his coming
he wouldn't understand. He IS
very jealous"
Don't you see how easily it
happens?
The devoted, jealous husband
away all day; the innocent,
rather too innocent young wife,
with too much leisure; the un-
scrupulous and probably attrac-
tive youth, who wants to amuSe
himself with the pretty wife,
to dodge responsibility in regard
to the husband and to remain
free to start up, If he likes, an
entertaining little secret love
affair-the kind that one can
escape from at a moments
notice.
The Unpleasant Drama
The stage is all set you see,
for a not very pleasant drama,
perhaps even for a tragedy.
We've seen it on the stage a
hundred times, and we are
only too familiar with the de-
ceit, the stolen pleasure, the
swiftly-following misery, the
Jealousy. the discovery. the tor
tured love that the actors in

The Beauty
Box

After II or 1S at most,
there's not much chance for
the pint-size girl to acquire
additional inches. Her beauty
stunt then is to learn to carry
herself tall, backbone stretched
to the limit, chest high, head
erect. Girls under II who
would be higher should go in
for vigorous exercises and out
door sports, especially tennis,
swimming and golf.
One way of acquiring neat
ankles is to buy a jumping
rope and use it. Large ankles
are often the result of wearing
turnover heels that strain ten
dons, throw muscles out of
place. If bulk is due to large
bones, not much can be done in
the way Of reform, but fat can
easily be worked off. Dark col
ored stockings are slenderizing
in effect.

diately-before her affection is
actually captured by the secrecy
loving boy friend-to tell her
husband the whole story.
Perhaps it will be awkward,
and perhaps there may even be
a little scene. But that won't
matter. The worry Of deceit
will have been done away with,
and that marriage will be
saved from going on the
rocks.

z, diamonds; A. 3-HeartS, to
show the length and strength
Of his suit; Y, Pass; B, 6-Hearts
Figuring from what he holds
that AS original bid must have
been based upon the AK Of
hearts, and either the Ace Of
spades or the Ace of clubs).
That ended the bidding.
The opening lead was the 6
of diamonds. Dunmy's lone
Ace won, and its lowest heart
was led. The declarer won
two heart tricks in his own
hand, hoping to drop all op-
posing trumps in two leads,
but z showed out. discarding
a small diamond. Of course A
could not afford to at once
lead another round Of hearts;
first he had to lead his lone
Ace Of clubs, and then he led
his only spade; both leads
being intended to establish in
dummy high honors in the two
black suits upon which the
declarer could discard his
losing diamonds.
Y won the first lead OF
spades. The decIarer hoped
that Y had no more diamonds
to lead, as that would insure
the success Of the contract, as
Y would then have to put
dummy in, by leading either 9
spade, a trump or club. II
either spade or a club were
led, dummy's top trump would
pull VS. last heart and pre-
vent all chance that Y might
ruff spade. Clubs held by
ABB were too few in number to
make it seem dangerous for
dummy to lead off his K and
Q.
Y held another diamond and
led it, so that dummy last
trump had to be used to ruff.
Upon leads of dummy'S Two
good clubs the declarer dis
carded his third and fourth
diamonds, leaving him only
one of his original five Of that
suit. A lead of dummy's K Of
shades enabled the declarer to
discard his last diamond, and
A felt relieved, although it was
improbable that Y did not hold
at least two spades. Having no
losers left in his hand, the de-
clarer led a small spade, ruffed
with his J for safety sake,
then pulled the last outstand-
ing heart with his 10, and
spread his cards, claiming full
fillment Of his contract.
Half baked comments are
not uncommon at the con-
clusion Of a hand, and such a
comment was made after A
had claimed his small slam.
z said: Partner, If you had
refused to win the first spade
lead a small slam never could
have been made. Why didn't
you pass the first trick?"
Suppose Y passes the first
lead of spades. Dummy will
win the one trick that Y saved
by at once taking his Ace.
Two club leads from dummy
will enable A to discard his
second and third diamonds.
Then dummy's K Of spades
must be led, and upon 1t
will go the declarer's fourth
diamond. Y can count just
what A holds. Y can win that
trick, and no matter what he
leads back the small slam will
be made. Passing the first
spade trick would have no
effect upon results.
