The persistent rumors that an

Wrecking Tug Warbler are UNI
true. 1t was learned at the Por-

two men of the ships personnel

The most unexpected colors
are sneaking into sports clothes,
and they are coming right now
at a time when they can glow
along with the autumnal foliage,
bright as a tiger.
The swell, classic three.piece
suit sketched at top today, for
instance, is pink herringbone
tweed-but pink! Think how
lovely you will look in it, per-
haps with a cherry-red hat, per-
haps with safari brown. And
imagine the breath-taking color
combinations you can work out
with your pulloverS or blouses!
The suit beneath the topper
has three-action pleats in the
skirt, and the jacket is single
breasted. If we have the same
open winter which has been no
stranger in the past, such a suit
is a year-around proposition,
especially for the suburban ward
robe.
The other tweed coat, shown
below, is a Shetland fabric in
black, white and gray symphony.
Where the pink suit is a splash
of light-hearted color, this num-
Der is subtly arranged to be a
background for giddy Access
series.
An OUTSIDE dyed eagles feather
on your vagabond hat, poison
green or pink suede gloves, pull
overs of violent hue, scarfs, caps,
even stockings that shrek for
notice, can be worn with this
single-breasted fitted REFER with
its hipbone pockets.
AS sketched, it is ensembled
with a gray tweed skirt and a
Brooks neck sweater of cerise.

WifeGiveS Up
neHuSband
FOrDrunkard
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Dear Miss Fairfax:
"Over-ambition was my trou'
BILE, but a good many people
called it selfishness. I had been
married seven years to a kindly,
plodding type of man, and we
didn't seem to be getting any,
where, financially or otherwise.
1--WE had two children, girls
of three and five, and felt at
the time it was as much for
their Sakes as for my own that
I persuaded their father to give
me a divorce, and married a
man who felt could do more
for them.
"He was in the legal depart
ment of a good firm, his salary
was twice my husbands, and
he was in direct line for pro-
motion.
what I didn't know about
him, when asked my husband
for the divorce, was that he was
a periodical drunkard, and the
firm had told him the next
time he went on a bender he
would be dismissed.
WENT TO FIRST MATE
"This happened only six
months after we were married,
and as we had always lived up
to his salary, we had nothing
to fall back on. I went to my
first husband, as the children
were in need, and he very gen.
erously gave me $40 a week.
ION that, my second husband,
children and myself lived. But
the situation was aWful-No. 2,
cranky and Grabbed, Directing
to taking a DOLE as he called
it, from No. l.
I'm the meantime, whenever
he could borrow, he drank, and
our home life was a h on
earth.
IT would be very glad to secure
a divorce and remarry my first
husband, but he doesn't want
that, though he agrees to pay a
certain amount every week for
the children's support"
"FRYING-PAN-TO.FIRE"
The details OF your letter,
which is too long to print, proved
to me rather conclusively that
that steady, plodding husband Of
yours was a long-Suffering man.
He cannot be blamed for de-
Ginning to remarry a woman who
was never satisfied with the best
he could offer. He is willing to
provide for the children, and you
need have no fears that a man
of his type will go back on this
agreement.
Whether you do or do not get
a divorce from your second huS-
band is up to you. In any case,
the sensible thing would be to
look around for a job.

Lovely Shoulders

If you have prom ent
shoulder blades, it is no joy to
wear the evening robe that is cut
far down at the back.
Clasp your hands below the
shoulder blades, palms outward.
Not easy to do. Throw the head

Children
BOu MiStreQted
By Relatives
BY GLADYS BEVANS


Ordinarily, in using q letter
in this column, I reserve a fair
proportion of space at the end
for my own comment; but I
have a letter before me today
which I am going to give in
full. I am doing this because
it paints, rather in detail,
vivid picture of a situation that
exists far too often for the good
of the small children involved
in it, and because it may help
some grownups to see their own
double in these relatives, and
to change their ways.
Dear Mrs. BevanS: I have
little boy who will be 6 years old
in October, and he is considered
very bright for his age. But he
is, also, very headstrong.
VERY RESTLESS
HE is very restless and I guess
it is because he has so many
bosses, as circumstances force
me, at this time, to live with my
parents. I have been living here
for the past five years, off
and on.
My father is very high
strung and nervous man. My
son seems to annoy him all the
time, as my father reared us to
be seen and not heard, though I
don't believe in that.
MY brother.in-law is always
spanking my boy if he does any
thing he doesn't like, and, natu-
rally. I resent this very much.
My father also hits him, and it
seems Sam is always upset and
terribly nervous, too, from it all.
my father will make a fuss
over my sisters little girl, and
deliberately ignore my boy. No
matter what goes wrong, or what
is out of place or broken, my
father blameS my boy without
giving him the benefit of the
doubt.
Il have been very good to my
parents and pay my way literally
and it hurts me to see my little
boy treated as If he were the
worst boy on earth. Everybody
is always telling him to do this
and not do that and keep quiet.
Nov, I want to do the right
thing for my son and want to
give him his rights, too. He is
very nervous and thin, though
he is always active and out Of
doors. 4&8k&
YOU CAN HELP ME
IT will be awaiting your reply
anXiously, as I feel I will be a
nervous wreck if things keep up
this way. I have had many in.
teresting suggestions from your
column and I know you can help
me-"
Unless there can be a very
radical change in the attitude Of
all these grownups this mother
should, at any cost. make home
for herself and her small boy
elsewhere.
He is going through a very
disintegrating experience, which
may affect his whole future.
This mother must use courage
and independence in dealing
with her family.

After the face wash

must give her face a

it will set circulation
