lard, in whose memory it is being
conducted. The five points are
Spiritual Education, Alcohol Educa-
ton, Peace Education, Character
Education and Citizenship Educa-
ton. Five years of continuous eff
fort in these lines cannot help but
have it's effect to make the year
1899, The Centenary Year of Fran
cess Willard a year to make history.
Everyone should be only too glad to
have at least small part in such a

Lizely Tan English Shoes Augment British Suits
BY GERTRUDE BAILEY

VOUVE seen the British bri-
Il gade of suits to wear under
your fur coat and later as spring
town costumes. Maybe you've
been wondering what's new in ac-
cessories to wear with them.
English feathers in a lively tan
color, variously referred to a
British tan" or carrot" are the
sprightliest complement to this
fashion. The color now is being
launched in shoes, bags and
gloves, and you'll jolly well sprout
it with your navy or black or
gray suit very soon if you want
to be up to season.
Look at the six shoe styles
sketched on today's page. Any one
of them can be worn with some
version of the tailored suit.
Every one of them appears in
tht new British tan" color to
accent the tweeds and worsteds
and gabardines that make the
suit.
For the lustier tweeds used by
morning strollers the low-heeled
moccasin of tan baby calf and
dark brown bucko is the most ap-
propriate.
The buckler, a low-heeled monk
shoe with square toe and square
heel, looks very new and COM
Portable with tailored town cos
TUNES. The heel, an inch and a
half high, is higher than the flats
we have been wearing. but easier
to walk on than the French heel.
Il
CTRAP sandals, too, have tai
- lored look when the strap is
a wide one, like that Sketched at
the lower right, and there are all
over perforations and stitching
besides. If you like pretty foot
wear wear this type of shoe with
your tailored suit and let your
other accessories be equally fem
mine, as a frilly jabot. a gay
boutonniere or a colored veil on
your felt hat.
The British tan opera pump ap-
pears in baby calf, squared at toe
and heel. or in gabardine
trimmed with baby calf. The lat
ter combination is very high style
in black, with tan toe and quar-
ter. The all-tan opera pump is
stunning worn with a navy blue
dress and a mink coat right now
Bows can be tailored enough for
suit shoes, too, as witness the
step-in sketched at the upper left
of the group. Here gabardine is
used again except for the center
arch section, which is cut-out
kidskin, and the heel, which is
tan kidskin, too.
The high riding oxford, with
allover perforations, has been
given a new color coat of tan to
tie in with the new shoe color
for the new clothes.

ality, but reason doesn't enter into
it at all-it is the feeling of re-
lease from responsibility which
your husband Graves, and ne is
unable to reason clearly about it.
To rebuke the man for his be-
havior is to increase his need for
feeling like big shot. Isn't it tragic
that the necessary self esteem comes
only with alcohol? 1t is better TO
make his home life as pleasant as
possible and simply evade him when
he drinks.
Work, yes, and be prepared to
stand alone if you must. But after
you've invested 20 long years in
one man, it does seem wastefui to
throw him away uriess he is
hopelessly and irredeemably moth
ing but trash.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am a girl of
II. My boy friend has one bad
habit-he drinks. He thinks he
can't have good time unless drinks
are included. He has asked me to
marry him. Mother thinks lot of
him, but won't give her consent to
our marriage until he stops drink
ing Could he possibly sacrifice that
one bad habit to prove he really
cares for me. UNHAPPY.
Answer-Of course don't know
how much he drinks. If he can
leave If aIOnp aS well aS fake If
1 don't think it is serious. But if
he can't leave it alone, be warned
by the above letter.

so good, but here lately he is max
ing good money. The payments are
back on the home, but he still
spends so much on drink. He will
not reason about anything. I have
tried going out with him, but al
ways have to bring him home
drunk. He admits I am all man
would want and that he has no ex-
cuse for doing this way.
1 feel as if we must separate and
should do so before I am too old to
work. I don't want to be burden
on the children when they are mar
ried. He doesn't seem to care for
the children anymore, but wants
people to think he is big shot. I
have studied other cases in your
paper, but I can't figure him out.
SALLIE.
Answer-You may not think so
now, but there are worse things
than being married to man who
drinks, but who still is his normal
self enough of the time to earn a
good living and buy a home. After
making a 20-year investment in
your home, husband and children
you would find it a terribly uproot-
ing experience to pull out now to
face loneliness, economic insecurity
and the unshared responsibility for
your children.
I'm just afraid that the condi-
tions which you would be obliged
to face would cause you almost as
much distress as putting up with
your husbands sprees.
If you want to work, well and
good, but why leave your husband
because you have a job? An occu-
patton would help you to keep your
mind off your troubles. His drink
ing won't seem so important to you
as it does now. AS long as your
husband does not drink in the
morning you can count on it that
he is not confirmed alcoholic, but
only another inferiority ridden hu-
man being who drinks for tenn
porary feeling of self-importance

CHAPTER TWENTY

A T Julia's direct question, Smith
"A Garland's pleased expression
was replaced with, one of poorly
hidden astonishment. Then he
shrugged away his embarrassment.
What difference does it make
who put up the money for the
White Club? It's a success now
and you're a success with it,"
Tom Payson backed you, didn't

Garland nodded sheepishly. But

1T does make 2. difference" Julia
told him quickly. 1T sort of-spoils
it all"
But why?"
She sat down weakly. II suppose I
was being a fool. But II felt
I'd been helping you put something
over"
But you have, Nadine. You've
done just that"
Julia shook her head mo -
she answered. "All this was Just

to think that you got the idea, and
saw me, and-and worked it all
out"
Look here, Julia :" He strobe
across the room to her chair kneeled
down before her as though she were
child. 1T was my idea. And it
came to me when 1 saw you all
dressed in white out on Latta S
gambling ship. Of course, Tom
steered me to you-so naturally I
thought of him when the question
of finances came up. I couldn't
swing it alone, but I'll pay Tom
back in time, He knows that"
TULTA smiled slowly and when
u she spoke again it was with a
wholly irrelevant question Did
you know you called me Julia-in-
stead of Nadine?"
Eyes. 4. And you've always been
Julia to me. Ever since the first
day saw you"
Something in Smith Garlands
eyes warned Julia, but there was
no way now to stem the sudden
flow of his words.
Il love you, Julia. II tried to
blind myself to it during these
weeks of work. But all along it's
been there underneath. I've
got to tell you now" His hands

THERE was no argument against

HERE was no argument against
Toms winning smile. AS she
changed from her white gown into
a stunningly plain black she re-
viewed in her mind what Garland
and Payson had said.
Perhaps, after all, it made no diff
ference that it was Payson's money
which had created an opportunity
for her. And yet
Doesn't any success come" she
asked herself, without compromises
ana obligations?" She thought of
the small, dark girl sitting out there
beside Peter Kemp WHAT was her
ambition?
Perhaps to be the wife of Peter
Kemp, to keep his home, and bear
his children. That would be her
simple success; and it would carry
only the obligation of being a good
wife. Nothing more than that.
Nervously Julia took up cigaret,
lighted it, and inhaled deeply-as if
the smoke might somehow purge her
mind of disturbing thoughts. Then,
after final glance in the mirror,
she left the dressing room and faced
Tom PaysOn with brave smile.
Three minutes!" she laughed.
When they reached the big main
room of the club Julia was recog-
nized at once, and a wave of ap-
plause spread quickly. Hurry" she
whispered to Payson, lets sit
down."
But just then the operator of the
spotlights, relentless and alert, shot
down glare which made hiding an
impossibility. He followed Payson
and Julia with the bright beam un-
til they reached the table which was
Payson'S destination.
