VI YOU are confronted with the
problem Of choosing dress which
will be suitable for long jour-
Il ney, and help you to arrive a.
your destination spic and span and
comfortably cool, this is the one for
you. Or, If you need another frock to
wear for days of shopping, or at the
office, toiling and moiling during long,
hot hours, this is the dress for you.
The kerchief idea seems always a
good one, and here it becomes yoke,
draped in the front in the becoming
cowl fashion, and fastened down the
back Of the blouse with five buttons.
You will observe that the blouse Is
gathered q little on either side of the
panel, where the yoke is attached, so
that the upper part of the dress is
soft in effect. Sleeves end above the
elbow, and are wide at the armhole
and the bottom.
There Is q long-sleeved version of
this dress that is very nice. The skirt
has q panel, fore and aft, harmonic
ing with the panel in front OF the
blouse. A simple tailored belt, with a
buckle as pretentious as you wish,
finishes this charming and practical
costume.
Crepe linen Is a newcomer in the
mode and is proving very popular for
frocks of this sort. 1t is cool and
creases almost none at all. Further
more, it takes dye exceedingly well
and comes In lovely and subtle colors.
Very good in gray, turquoise and q
deeper blue, q nice light beige (for
you who are travel bound) and the
most perfect shade of dutsy pink.
Shantung is another fabric well
adapted to this design, as are also
the silk crepes and the synthetic
crepes which come in a great variety
of weaves and colors. There is new
silk broadcloth, now available in many
shops, which will be used extensively
for smart. tailored dresses. And one
must remember the foulards and sup
pie, printed sateens, for they have
practical qualities which endear them
to every woman.
Choose accessories that are good,

remarks that were guaranteed to be
unanswerable-such as your hostess

tale. It Is definitely an effective stop
to conversation.
For some years two men-let's call
them Smith and Jones-had bat

After each tournament, Smith tor it
might be jones' would vow that it
would be a long, cold Winter before
he would ever sit across the table
from that idiot" again. And Jones
(or Smith, as the case might be)
would retort, That gees double!"
As I intimated, they had been hurl-
ing these remarks at each other for
years. Yet each tournament would
find them together again. Thus it
was with a distinct sense of shock
that their bridge cronies saw Smith
enter a minor duplicate event with
another partner The next week, the
same thing happened. 1t was in

Girl Writes
How DiUorce
Brings Woe
By VIRGINIA Il

In proof OF my plea that parents
should stay together n possible while
their children are growing up. even
II they think they cannot get along"
is the following letter from q girl
victim Of q broken home:
DEAR MISS LEE: Ny parents
are divorced and married again !
have two brothers and q sister, all
younger than I, but one. We lived
with dad for three years. then shift
ed 10 mother. we really have no
home. as you see.
* have been working whenever i
could. then everything "a okay, but
when I couldn't support myself !
heard OF 1t frankly or they limited
around.
Instead OF us children being
chums we are regular tigers. ! would
love 10 be pals with my brothers and
sisters. but they couldn't seem to
want IL. They are as wild a. can
be and really enjoy 1t.
Another thing: when we stay
with mother she talks about dad,
how poor his relatives are and how
dumb and what kind OF life he leads.
and when we stay with dad it's the
other way around. / Just. can't stand
IL. Sometimes I feel like committing
suicide. and then I happen 70 think
that this may be the trouble with
someone else too, 70 I wish all
children OF Divorces would write
and maybe the parents would have
their eyes opened.
Il feel like going 10 another city
70 work but ! don't know anyone
and ] am only II. I have supported
myself off and on since i was is,
whenever I found anything 10 do.
CHILD OF DIVORCES"
I agree with you heartily, my
dear, that when parents bring child
rem into the world they should think
of them first - not Of themselves.
It's tough 10 have no home. or 20
have too much inharmonious ones,
and hard that your parents do not
stop wrangling and saying hateful
things about each other even now
they no longer have 10 live together.
You should be going to school Of
course, but In these times, when
money Is scarce. children OF unbrok-
en- homes have to give up school and
help with the family finances. too.
so that part Of your life is not UNI
usual or peculiar TO divorces.
And probably your people need the
money more than your help around
the house, SO that Is why they want
you to contribute to the family in
come. These problems. and also the
fact that you and your brothers and
sisters are not pals and are wild. are
those that come 70 families In ordi-
nary circumstances. Many Of them
disappear as the young people grow
older. OF course the way you all
live may contribute to It. I don't
doubt that.
Try to get work and make your
self independent. Then maybe you
can make q little home for your
brothers and sisters. III not, 40 least
your own family experience can
make you determined that you will
be very careful In choosing a hus-
band, and will do your best 10 make
your own home happy for him and
your children.
