therefore I do not believe that
it is proper that I should go
there, a stranger, to stay at
their home for the two days,
without written expression OF
their desire to have me there.
Or is his written invitation
enough? We are nothing more
than good friends. A.
Your social judgment in this
case is sure and absolutely cor
rect. You should not go to
visit this home without an in
vitation direct from the hostess
of that home. The young mans
invitation, while very friendly
and gracious, is not enough.
The fact that you do not know

is not the significant thing,

a great deal for her, in protest,
I think, because she was so dif.
ferent from my fiancee.
There was never q reproach-
full word when told the girl
to whom I was engaged that
I wanted to be released; that
I cared more for someone else,
but could see that she was
stricken.
Now here is where something
in the way of compensation
would come in beautifully. I
would feel less like a cad; it
would ease my conscience, and
make my marriage happier.
But my former fiancee and
her family are not breach of
promise" kind of people, and
over it all, I am truly
MISERABLE.
There is a good deal more
to this letter, but enough Is
given to show how the young
man feels. He asked to be re-
leased from an engagement
that had grown to be intoler-
able; he was in love, or
imagined he was in love, with
someone else as a sort of pro-
test, and now he wants some
thing to ease his conscience and
make him feel less like a cad.
But as he says, these are not
breach-of-promise people.
There is absolutely nothing to
be done, I should say, except
not to rush too hastily into a
marriage with this second girl.
The protest element, as he calls
it, was too strong.
Undoubtedly the young mans
grandfather would have felt it
a point Of honor to go on with
a marriage to the first girl,
but marriages are not made
that way today. Unless a girl
has some overwhelming claim
on a man, she grins and bears q
temporarily broken heart.
But I shouldn't be surprised

A Story Of the CIamor, Romance
and Intrigue of Hollywood -
WASEHNGTONFASHONS By Wilma LdNNe

Again we bring up the argu-
ment Of pajamas or slackS versus
beach dresses. Some women
prefer the trousered costumes,
some like dresses better. It's
really a matter of choice, and
If you do much swimming or
beach lounging, you may need
both. Like all other types Of
fashion advice this must be
colored by the consideration Of
where you go and what you do.
Beach dresses are perfect for
some people, pajamaS for
others, and slacks with a shirt
are best for still others.
A Real Dress
Most people who wear beach
dresses over their bathing suits,
prefer them because they are
easier to put on, and also be-
cause they can 80 more
places in a dress than they
can in trousers. For instance,
if you want to go to luncheon
place right off the beach, or If
you drive away to one. where
pajamas are too informal, you
can put on your beach dress,
which hides your suit entirely.
stick your feet into shoes, with
stockings if necessary, and go
to lunch. If you were depend
ing on pajamas, you'd have to
change back again to your
clothes. With a dress, you can
go back to the beach, unwrap
the dress, use it for a robe on
the sands, and into the water
again.
For Tennis, Too
Beach dresses are cut so that
they either follow the line OF
your bathing suit, or come just
high enough to hide the suit.
They are cut low enough to
give you full benefit of the
sun, they're wrapped around,
and usually tied with a sash, so
that they're easy to get in and
out of. Wool jersey and various
absorbent cotton materials are
most popular for beach dresses,
and you can be as gay as you
like in the ColOrS YOU choose.
We've Sketched two smart
dresses, both of them inexpen-
sive. On the right is a seer
sucker in many-colored stripes.
It's a rough, heavy seerSucker,
made on an old-fashioned hand
loom. This wrap-around dress
is priced $2.95, and is good
looking enough for you to wear
it for a tennis dress, too, II
you like. The other dress is
$2.95, is of a very soft cotton
toweling in white with yellow
and orange plaid. You can also
get piques for $1.95, and if you
just want a skirt they are new
and smart with rope to hold
them about the waist.
For fashion information, or
for the name of the stores
showing these dresses, write

Correct Manners

mans parents. What does
make the difference is that the
invitation must come from the
mother, the hostess.
Perhaps his family is not
very careful about such social
details, and have simply been
negligent and not consciously
ungracious. 1t is easy for you
to remedy this, and with per.
feet politeness, if you really
wish to visit the family.
You could, for instance, write
the young man or tell him, if
you are to see him, that you
hesitate to visit at his home
without an invitation from his
mother. You may think at
first that this would be crude
or bad form, but you need not
hesitate to say this, if you say
it graciously, as I know you
will. for it is sometimes neces-
sary to do this.
The young man will under
stand, I am sure; indeed. he
will doubtless respect you vastly
for your Sureness and breed
ing. Then he will tell

will no doubt be duly and cor

Of all things, a young man
has written to say he sees ad-
vantages in breach Of promise
suits. or what he calls: Hon
orable compensation for break
ing an engagement"
That is something new under
the sun, the proverb notwith-
standing. I read through his
letter twice before I could be-
lieve my eyes. He writes that
he reached the point where he
no longer could bear the
thought of marrying the girl to
whom he was engaged, and at
the same time he is full Of pity,
and would like to Salve his con-
science with something in the
way of compensation. Here is
part of his letter:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I met TINS girl when was in
real trouble. Death had broken
I'D my home and taken a be-
loved mother and brother with

began making furious love to
her to ease my own heartache.

quiet way; but in time her
calmneSs drove me wild. 1 told
myself she was a "stick" Of a
girl. What I wanted was ami

was all still water.
At the same time she loved
me, in her own quiet way, utter
ly and completely, but she
seemed unable to break through
her reserve.

versity began to make love

The Beauty
Box
BY HELEN FOLLETT

In the good old summer time
complexion needs lots of cold
water. It also needs cream to
combat the flaying effects of
strong sunlight. It is benefited
by complexion powders that
have an oily base.
Use soap and water at night,
never during the day, especially
not directly after coming in
from out of doors. When pref
tying up for dinner, remove at
moSpheric dust and makeup
with a cleaSing oil, lay on cold
congresses, wipe the skin gen.
tly, use a foundation cream,
place the counterfeit tints again.
Bangs Of half portions are a
new beauty whim. There is a
chic arrangement that will at
tract the attention of sophisti-
Gated lassies. The hair is part
ed high on the left side. At the
left Of the parting is softly
waved fringe, extending to the
ear, the right side carries the
usual rhythmic undulation that
fluffs into snail curls at the
ends. The very thing for the
hat that likes to settle down

The Washington times., 1933-06-16

Bidding went as follows:
South, 1-Spade; North 3-Spades,
requesting South to show his
lowest suit headed by an Ace
South, 4-HeartS, had South bid
4-Spades he would have stated
that he held no side Ace, and
bidding would have ended;
North, 5-Diamonds, to show his
Ace of that suit, and to inquire
whether his partner held either
the K of Diamonds or K OF
Hearts. Had South bid either
6-Diamonds or 6-Hearts, North
would have jumped into T.
Spades, but when South bid g.
Spades it ended bidding, as
there probably could not be a
grand slam. Note that while
South, as partner of the one
giving the slam signal (jump-
ing the original bid from l.
Spade to 37Spades), had to
show features in order, begin
ming with the lowest side Ace,
and afterwards bidding any
side suit containing a K. that
the one giving the slam signal
could bid his suits in any Sc
quence desired. 1t would have
been stupid for North to bid
Clubs, as he knew that his part
ner held no K in that suit, but
South might have the K of Dia-
monds.
The opening lead was the
fourth-b best diamond, which al
most certainly marked East
with possession of the K. The
declarer reasoned as follows:
IF the trumps are split % be-
tween opponents I can ruff 2
hearts in dummy, and throw off
3 diamonds on dummy's clubs. I
may be able to throw off one
heart and 3 diamonds on
dummy's clubs, in case the ad-
verse trumps do not break for
me. My best chance to pick
up an extra trick is to put up
dummy's Ace of diamonds"
So dummy's Ace won the first
trick in diamonds. The K of
spades was led. The lone heart
was lead from dummy, and
won with declarer's Ace. Dummy
ruffed a heart. A low spade
was led from dummy. The
trumps failed to break, so the
declarer took two leads Of
trumps, to drop opposing
spades.
Dummy won 4 club tricks.
Upon these the declarer dis
carded one heart and his 4 and
j of diamonds. The declarer
had to ruff dummy's last club.
Had East held both the K. of
diamonds and hearts, East
might have let go the wrong
K, and given South a grand
slam, as it was East held his
K Of diamonds, while the de-
clarer led his last trump at the
twelfth trick. South wound up
by having to give opponents
one diamond trick, but he
made his small slam.

Housekeeping bores me to

note to her really fine young

She couldn't trump up a

didn't like housekeeping. Will
the future furnish the thrills
she's seeking? And don't thrills
pail after a while?
Divorce as a pastime leaves
me cold. If such marital will

be closed doors all around. But
people have the same fleeting
curiosity about such folk as
they have about freaks in a

to see the girl who stayed mar

or the boy who married on
dare. And it's likely that when
the novelty Of being side

one willing to risk a second
marriage, with the same results
as the first.

Experimental marriage" a
Judge of one of our domestic re-
lations courts called it, speaking
of cases like Ted's. And he
should know, for it is to him
that so many young creatures
come to plead for divorce
young people who have married
without giving the subject "due
consideration" as the ceremony
warned.
These youngsters marry, not
because they are in love, not for
money or ambition, or, like the
Victorian heroine of fiction, to
save a father from bankruptcy.
They marry solely for some such
reckless reason as: I'm willing
to try anything once"
Very probably they've forti-
fled themselves with a knoWl-
edge of the way out of the con-
tract, as furnished by some
States specializing in divorces,
before they've decided where
they'll spend the honeymoon.
Tied c." has had such an ex-
perience, and one wonders at
his forbearance in writing of it.
"She just didn't want the things
I did-a home, some feeling Of
security, children" he writes.
Perhaps I'm old-fashioned, but
the things I remember about
my childhood home have always
seemed the best things in the
world to me-"
Ted's wife happened to be
one of those young ladies who
is willing "to try anything
once" No reason in the world
why she should have walked
in and out of this boys life
just as if the home and the
love he gave her were nothing
but the properties in a play.

Their Families Do Not Approve
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 20 years Of age and
my sweetheart is Is. I am
very much in love with her
and she is equally devoted to
me, but her parents object to
her seeing me or going out
with me. She is continually
getting in trouble at home for
seeing me on the sly, and as I
am unemployed at present I
am having trouble at home
with my sister-in-law for not
paying my board. My girls par
ents will never agree to her
going with me as long as I
am iobless and not of the same
faith as she is. / intend to
change my religion as soon as
I have steady job, so that
we may both be happy. what
advice would you give?
Granting that the lack OF
employment is the chief reason
for the girls parents not well
coming you to their home, a
lob would be the solution OF
that problem, and would fore
stall your seeing the young
lady on the sly, which is al
ways questionable. 1t would
help keep the peace with your
sister-in-law, too.
You don't tell me anything
about your previous job or
your fitness for going back to
work. When the Presidents
Employment Relief Plan gets
under way, jobs will OF course

to hold them down.
If you've had no technical
training, don't you think 1t
would be well to prepare your
self now. Training the job
less is part of the program 60
ing forward in many cities.
And, there are innumerable
books in public libraries which
are very helpful to the un-
employed. You can read up
on salesmanship, mechanical
employment, gardening, paint
ing almost anything, and while
practical knowledge Is better,
YOU won't lose anything by
reading up.
AS to your change Of faltn'
everyone must decide that with
the approval Of his own con-
science. At 18 and 20 you are
young enough to wait if diff
culties persist, and the wait

opportunity to discover how
deeply you are in love with
