When Manners Are Correct
Bv MRS. CoRNELIUs BERGMAN

Hthis city all my life, it sounds
impossible to send invitations to
my friends here to attend a we'd
ding 14OO miles away, yet I am
in doubt as to how to announce
it. My father is my only close
relative in town. Would it be
proper for him to give me a fare
well dinner and invite a few
friends, or would it be more fit
ting for me to give an informal
dinner and announce it shortly
before leave?
"In regard to the wedding an
nOuncementS, are they necessary?
If they are, is my father expected
to send them out from this point?
81 want to be married in a
church, in the morning, around
8 o'clock. 1 am not going to wear
a veil, so what would be apprO-
pirate to wear at that time of the
morning, and also during that
time of the year? Would you
suggest a long dress or a travel
ing suit? If a long dress is worn,
would you suggest a picture hat
or would that be too formal for
that time of the day?
81 am going to have one at
tendant. What should she wear
to be in harmony with my cos
tune?
even though the family of my
future husband lives in the city
where we are to be married, is
it not proper for the brides family
to give the wedding breakfast?
"S."
It would be a perfect plan for
your father to give dinner in
your honor few days before you
leave for the city in which you
are to be married. This could be
a charming and gala occasion, a
"pre-wedding festivity."
It is never strictly necessary
to send wedding announcements.
If they are sent, they are sent
because of their convenience in
giving the news. In your case,
since you are being married SO
far away from where you have
always lived, they would be, 1
should think, of especial conven-
fence. These formal announce
ments would, of course, be Spon-
sored by your father, and, since
he will be with you in the city
in which you are to be married.
they would be mailed from there.
You could take them with you,
all ready to be mailed directly
after the ceremony has been per-
formed.
For an o'clock morning we'd
ding, your travelling suit would be
most appropriate.
Your attendant, too. would wear
suit. or a street-dreSs and coat,
or a day ensemble.
Yes, your father should be the
host at the wedding breakfast,
which he could easily plan to give
in, a private dining-room of hotel.

SHE DISAPPROVES

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Don't you think girl in her
early teens is entirely too young
for heavy petting? Besides, I
have certain ideals, and heavy pet
ting doesn't fit in with them.
"WhiIe l am not hard to look
at, and wear as nice clothes as
any of our crowd, l am not pOpu-
lar. They don't seem to like me
as a pal. They treat me with in
difference, and sometimes even
snub me, because they all go in
for heavy petting, and do not.
81 get so discouraged some
times that I'm almost tempted to
act the way the rest of them do,
so that l won't be so lonely.
"E. B."
Heavy petting in ones early
teens is a good deal like starting
the fire with kerosene. I won't
follow up the comparison; suffice
to say that the heavy PETERS in
youth are likely to go unpetted
later on.
Don't waste yourself on these
reckless youngsters. Try to make
friends among girls and boys who
have the same ideals as you have.
The process may be a little slow,
even lonesome. but it will pay bet
ter in the long run.

AVOID AN ISSUE
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
"We've been married six years.
have three children, and have been
really happy till some very com.
mon people moved next door.
They started borrowing and ask.
ing favOrS, and then the woman,
who has five children and works
some distance from her home, re.
queSted my husband to let her
ride in his car each morning.
Naturally 1 objected to this
from what I've seen of these
people, as / did not want my huS.
band to get entangIed with some.
one about whom we knew nothing.
"ThiS woman leaves her children
with a sister who OgleS every man
she sees, and when my husband
comes home yellS at him to Dor,
row cigarettes and matches.
"My husband claims that 1 am
jealous in Directing to these free
and-easy ways, and claims / do
not trust him. But being a
woman, 1 understand more about
this family than my husband
does, and 1 don't want him to
get into any scrape with either
of these ladies.
"DISTURBED WIFE"
It is certainly nuisance to
have a borrowing family next
door, especially when they seem
to be trying to borrow your hus-
band. On the other hand, I
think it's a mistake to make an
issue of this business.
If you ignore it as much as
possible, it will not loom as large
in your domestic affairs as if
you talked about it continually.
You recall the old adage about
the boy who cried wolf! Wolff"
too often. Above all things, don't
nag your husband about the girl
who makes goo-goo eyes and the
married lady who suggests free
transportation. That sort of thing
corrects itself.

WEDDING RING
ear Mrs Reeckman:


Il have been married for
twelve years, and few years
ago my husbands mother asked
my husband for his wedding ring.
1 suppose he hardly knew how to
refuse anyway she has it and
is wearing it. Perhaps I'm SEN
timental about those things, but
to me a wedding ring is some
thing more than just an Orna-
ment.
what would you do under
these circumstances, or how
could 1 tactfully get it back?
She lives in another State. To
me it is almost objectionable to
ask for and accept another per
sons wedding ring.
"READER."
What fantastic thing for
your mother-in-law to do. and
what an almost unbelievable
thing for your husband to &C
cede to! I can't account for
your husbands hardly knowing
how to refuse" Of course the
first suggestion that would come
to anyone's mind is for you to
ask, demand, that your husband
get the ring back. but if he is
so putty-like as to give his mother
the ring in the first place, one
couldn't, I suppose, expect much

Eyes Must Match

THE vogue for matching
- everything under the sun
from the color of your dog to
your car, extends up the line
to matching your eye shadow
to the colors of your tweeds-
woolens-crepes and lanes. Of
course, always keeping in mind
your own natural coloring. For
instance: Use mahogany eye
shadow, with a touch of light
green at the edge of the eye
lids, when you wear the olive
green sponsored by Schiapa-
relli. Use mahogany also for
the brown and beige tones.
Use royal blue for all your
black togs.
Use gold and mahogany, or
silver and blue light-for your
gold or silver lame evening gowns,
tunics and metal flecked cocktail
and theater frockS. Use violet for
your gray and purple tweeds, duve-
tines and broadcloths. Use aqua
blue with light green for your
autumn reds, and if you are very
dark in coloring, use violet.
Use an eye beauty brush to put
on all standings if you want to
achieve a smooth, natural line
don't trust to the haphazard finger
Smearing method. If you want to
make your eyelashes curl up like
daisy petals, use KurlaSh, the
curler that is available around
town. And if you want the curl
to stay in for II to II hours, use
mascara first (the liquid or the
cake) and then apply Kurlash.

Dear Donna Grace: My little
boy is going to high school and
he worries so much about his
height. He is short for his age,
but think he will grow more
as now he is just Is, and our folks
are all tall, but he is smaller than
any of the boys in his class. Is
there anything he can do to make
him tall? I wish you could help
him. "MRS. H. K"
Answer: There is every reason
to feel your boy will continue to
grow. He must be still young, and
will no doubt be tall since the
others are. Plenty of good nour-
ishing food and out-of-door exer-
else is the best thing for him.
Trapeze work such as they have
at school on the bars will help
to stretch him out.

To Miss ]. P.-Your letter was
too long to print, and as it is
a personal question, it may be
better to send a stamped, self
addressed envelope and receive a
personal answer.
It would seem that you are too
self-conscious. You say you are
afraid to open your mouth to
talk to anyone because your teeth
are so bad, and yet you say you
visit your dentist regularly and
your teeth are glossy and
straight, though there are small
spaces between some of them.
You say you have a startling in
feriority complex that is an obSes-
sion. and, try as you may, you
cannot cure it. Your father is very
wealthy, but does not want you to
enter college and carve out your
own career.
1 want to advise you, if possible,
since that is what you wish, but
you say your friends tell you you
are beautiful and you have been
frequently asked to play the leads
in dramatic plays and operas, and
also that you would be a find for
a cigertte ad, and are always tops
in any crowd" I feel that I must
congratulate you on your good
fortune, and tell you as the man
ager did, that you have everything
a model should have. How can
any girl with such unusual beauty
be depressed or feel inferior?
Stop thinking about yourself so
much and become interested in
some work. Take a course in read
ing or study to be an actress, and
you will soon find a place for your
self. You are an intelligent girl,
so try to believe the nice things
people tell you about yourself when
you know you deserve their praise.
Go out with young people and en-
joy yourself.

DEATH STALKS
GREAT LOVER
OF MARINES
By GORDON GORDON

STATE PENTTENTTARY, FLOR
ENCE, Ariz., Sept. 20 QN.S0.-The
one-tirne "great lover" of the U.
S. Marines, whose numerous sweet
hearts are deluging the prison
here with messages of tender fare
we'll, was preparing today to die
at dawn Friday in the lethal gas
chamber.
Hero of a dozen skirmishes in
the Nicaragua campaign against
the Sandino rebels, Roland Jerry"
Cochrane, %, formerly resident
of New York and San Diego, gave
up hope today of escaping the
death sentence when Warden A. G.
Walker refused to ask for an in
sanity hearing.
Sweetheart With Him
Comforting Cochrane in death
row was his would-be bride,
Thelma Martin, pretty 26-year-
old Phoenix, Ariz., girl, whom
Warden Walker discouraged when
she begged few weeks ago to
wed the handsome ex-Marine fol-
lowing a whirlwind courtShip in
the Sun-baked prison yard.
Walker granted her permission,
though, to visit Cochrane at any
time, and she plans to walk with
him the last 13 steps to the gas
chamber.
Prison officials reported that
sweethearts Of other days, when
Cochrane was twice decorated by
the Nicaraguan govern m ent,
hadn't forgotten him. He has re-
ceived numerous letters and post
cards from women admirers in
the Central American countries.
Won U. S. Citation
Cochrane was awarded a cita-
tion by the United States in
1929 for unusual bravery under
fire" He was one of the few
outsiders who ever slipped into
Sandino'S mountain hideout as
a spy. Cochrane's observations
there reputedly supplied the in
formation which the Marine flierS
used in bombing Sandino into
submission.
Cochrane killed Giles in
Phoenix, Ariz., New Year Day
of 1895. He believed Giles was
carrying gambling winnings Of
several thousand dollars, and
held up and shot the Phoenix
man in his home.
