STYLE CHATS

Paris (UP)-It was Danton, dur ing the French Revolution, who coined the political motto: "Audac- ity, more audacity, always audac- ity," and 1t is a principle still faith fully observed on the Rue de Eau bourg St. Honore.
 For on this famous street, the heart of the Paris style center, it is well-established rule that the essence of high fashion is not only to please and delight-you've got to make them gasp.
 You may think it bit odd to put what looks like a strawberry box on your head, cover the top with flowers, wind a velvet ribbon around it, and call it a hat-but you'll be more than repaid for any qualms you may have suffered when your friends recognize it as the ver- itable Jacques Heim-and so Parisian!
 A little more on the conserva- tive side, but still something that will make them turn round for a second look, is Erik's flat, pleat-like straw, slightly turned up at the edge of the brim, and carrying a whole black crow on the left side of the crown.
 Chanel is full of quaint ideas for evening. Neat, but not gaudy, is a white dress wth fitted, low-cut bodice, and haring skirt-sleeveless, of course-but worn with starched white lace cuffs, about inches long, on both wrists. Earrings, that look

Another budget dividend for Tom and Mary! This month it's swish spring formal for HER. Last month it was a Tennis Club membership for HIM.
 How do they manage these jolly splurges when Toms income stays the same? They estimate expenses ahead, follow wise buying tips-the two simple rules for successful budgeting.
 When they divided their income, they added two new spending de- partments. Splurges come out of THINGS WE WANT MOST. An other fund, called DEPRECIATION AND EMERGENCIES, takes care of car repairs and dental bills, dispels the bugbear of "extras."
 The money for these special funds comes from savings on two big items, CLOTHING and FOOD. Shopping for clothes, Mary cleverly sticks to one or two basic colors, brightens her wardrobe with crisp blouses, jaunty hats, gay clips and belts. Planning meals, she first buys protective foods-milk, vege- tables, fruitS-rounds out the menu with meats, breads, cereals and sweets.

Meanwhile, if you ask me, advise you to eat everything you like, within reason and at regular meals.

J reared its head, too. Jealousy and anger are twin brothers.
 Whether the child shows much jealousy or not depends on his sur- roundings. Take a little chap who has his whole day uninterrupted, who never has any opposition to his will, and who has no competi- ton from other children, and he won't show jealousy because he has nothing over which to be jealous.
 Few Homes Perfect
 But children in larger families have to learn to shift their wishes about. They have to learn that they are not masters of their world, and it takes little time to make such adjustments.
 Homes are not clinics, nor are they even nursery schools. Some homes are regulated to bring out the best moods in the child, and discourage the worst; others can not come anywhere near the &C., cepted ideal, and the mother has to do the best she can.
 Very well, our baby gets jealous, now that he is two years old, and we have to make the best of it. It is a comfort, to begin with, how ever, to know that he is not being too different, but following pat tern of natures own making. Jeal- ousy won't pass altogether, as it is the besetting sin of most of us, but 1t will wear away considerably when he has other things to think about as he gets older.
 He won't be particularly jealous of you, mother. He won't like it one bit if you make a fuss over another child who suddenly appears from nowhere. He accepts the members of his immediate family quite well, but anyone beyond his intimate world is an outsider indeed. He may be jealous of adults, too-visitors, relativeN who appear to claim your hugs and kisses
 Try to work him out of his jeal- ousy without rcusing his anger or causing him to0 great distress,

 New York-This year blouses are real fashion story. The smart girl who buys her spring suit early gets busy immediately and figures out ways and means to make 1t dc double, even triple, duty. She haunts the accessory counters, especially the blouse departments. And, in addi- tion to blouses, she chooses a vari- ety of necklaces, belts and gloves then doesn't worry another minute about her wardrobe until it's time to buy silk dresses.
 There are the ballerina type blouses, cut full to blouse over skirt bands. These usually have full sleeves, little girl necklines. and are so genuinely f1attering that they're fun to wear by themselves as well as under suit jackets.
 Neat, tailored linen and washable silk blouses, cut on shirt-makel lines, come in bright as well as pas tel shades. And are wonderful fo1 the business girl, or the routine hours of any woman's life. Cloque Organdy
 For the days when you have an important lunch date or expect to wear your suit to tea, perhaps even to dinner, shirred chiffon, lace trimmed hand-mades, suave organdy blouses are ideal.
 The organdy picture is an inter esting one this season.
 Swiss cloque organdieS in lovely new prints were an outstanding fea- ture of recent New York fashion show, and are used to make many lovely blouses. One popular cloque version is in ti-colored floral prints, generally combining deep and pastel tones.

 Now another trump lead dropped the adverse trumps, then the ace and king of hearts were cashed, and dummy's last heart led. When East won this trick, no matter what he elected to return, the contract was made.
 A club return would be ruffed by declarer and the diamond nine dis carded. Any diamond return would be equally ineffective, as South's last heart would provide the needed slam trick. South lost nothing by refus- ing the Leart finesse, as he could still take the diamond finesse if West won the third heart with the queen.
