Congeniality
Needed in
Marriage
Other Problems
Must Also Be
Considered
BY ANGELO PATRI.

A boy and girl, just beginning
their out-of- school life, are fond
of each other and rather think that
when they have some bit of security
in their lives they would like to
marry. They are troubled by one
grave doubt. Each of them belongs
to church whose rules about mar
rying outside their own religious
group are very strict. They ask me
what to do.
cannot say with any authority
what they should do about this.
Marriage is about the most per-
sonal matter man or woman ever
faces. 1t must be decided by the
two people concerned without ref
erence to any other persons prefer
erences. The one question that mat
tiers, the one thing they must make
certain OF, is their lasting affection
and friendship for each other. Love
alone makes marriage possible, love
alone makes it practicable, love
alone insures its duration to the end.
But love is not simple emo
ton, ever. And it is easily con-
fused with lesser ones like loneli-
ness, long and familiar association
and the like. These mixed emo
tions can bring on a feeling very
like love in its expressions, but very
unlike love in its spiritual signifi-
canoe. One must try to be very
sure before calling the world we'll
lost for the sake of the lover.
The best foundation for marriage
is companionship and that implies
mutual tastes. mutual likes and
dislikes, mutual convictions on i'm
portant matters like church and
family. If one of the two is strong
ly religious and the other is not, if
one belongs to strict religious
sect and the other to a different
one, if one dislikes the others fam
lily. the stage is set for trouble. Such
relationships as these have deep
roots, deeper than most people real
lie until they are threatened. Then
an unsuspected loyalty, an unreal
lied devotion rises to tear the two
apart. And than that there is moth
ing sadder in this life.
When such division of relation
ships exists it is best to take a long
time to consider before deciding
finally. Wait long enough to be
quite certain that you can hear your
church criticized harshly, your creed
scoffed at, your family shrugged
off and make certain that you can
accept 1t all without anger and re-
bellion before you marry one who is
IN opposition to this extent.
Your loved one would not do that?
Don't be SO sure. Family and church
and creed and party politics 20
deep. While there is no challenge
nothing happens, but when the
challenge comes, when one wants
the baby christened in his church,
when one wants the child named
for his family, when one deter
mines that the children shall 60 to
this school or that church, be reared
in this belief or in that political
creed, while the other rises in all
the hereditary bitterness and loyal
ty on the other side-what then?
Marriage means children, or it
ought to. 1t is the children who
must bear the penalty of a house
divided against itself. Think about
this first. It is easier for them If
the house is united. It is easier
for the husband and wife If they
are like-minded. It Is wiser to marry
within ones own group, social, po-
litical and religious. But seldom is
young love wise.

KeepingCool
During Hot
Weather
Washable Clothes
And Simple Diet
Are Important
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

The primary rule for hot weather,
II you wish to keep comfortable, is
to eat lightly. Salads, eggs, milk
and fruit will give you ample nour-
ishment and you can do nicely with
out heavier foods. Contrary to be-
lief, you should not drink iced
drinks frequently. Cool drinks yes,
but not iced. Beer and other alco-
holic drinks are heating and also
weight producing.
The daily shower from warm to
cool, or tub bath is most essen
tial. 1t is good if you can start
off the day with one and end the
day with another. If you give your
skin nice, cool splashing with a
fresh fragrant cologne, after your
bathing, you will stay cooler longer
and will be sweet smelling to boot!
Body powder is nice If the day is not
too hot. But if the weather is so
torrid that you perspire 10 minutes
after your bath, powder is apt to
clog your pores and prevent them
from secreting freely. Use an anti
perspirant or deodorant instead. un-
der your arms, across your back.
OF course, cotton dresses and linen
undies are about the coolest for
summer All your clothes should be
washable and if you do wear, or
travel in silk dress 1t should have
lingerie touches such as collar and
cuffs or white bow at the neck.
Something that looks fresh and
which may be washed at the end of
the day. If you dress in cool clothes
you will look crisp and fresh, not
wilted. Women in the larger cities
are at last being sensible and wear
ing trim little gingham suits in
stead of the heavy silks in navy
blue and black.
| A clean fresh scalp and skin adds
to your enjoyment of hot weather.
Oily. greasy hair requires washing
at least once a week. Dry hair,
every 10 days or once week If you
travel much. Sometimes a harmless
dry shampoo between soap sham
poos is necessary to keep your hair
fluffy and ruly.
No girl or woman should begin
her day without fresh undies and
hose and fresh cotton gloves if she
lives where gloves are worn to and
| from business or while shopping.
Even if you have only one or two
changes. they should be rinsed out
each night so they will be ready for
the next day. You may buy undies
made from materials which do not
require ironing, and gloves and hose,
of course, do not.
Go about your regular duties as
usual but do not rush. Just take
them in your stride calmly. 1t is a
fallacy to believe that you should
only sit and pant away the hours
during hot weather. If you keep
doing something you will not think
of the heat.
These, seem simple suggestions but
they are effective And you can get
some rest at night If you first bathe
in warm water, then cool. and lie
with only sheet covering in the
coolest spot of the room. Even the
floor is not too hard If it is cooler
there than on your bed!

With a Round Trip Ticket

doesn't like changes. I like to stay
in the same place and do the same
things, and I feel that just can t
60 on moving around all the time
any longer. Still I do not want to
give up my wife and am afraid we
will come to the parting of the ways
if something isn't done to settle
her. What can I do? BILL.
Answer-Why don't you try the rail-
road-ticket treatment on her? When
ever she begins to find fault with
the place in which you are living
and to criticize the neighborhood and
compare it invidiously with some
other place at the other end of the
town, don't argue with her. Just
stop in at the tourist Office next day
and bring her home round-trip
ticket that will cover all the mileage
you can afford.
All she wants is change and she
will come home thinking her own
home is the incest place on earth
and content to 60 on living in it.
This plan of appeasing her wander
lust will be a lot cheaper than
breaking up your home and estab-
fishing new one. And 1t will have
the further advantage of not tear
ing you up by the roots and trans
planting you in alien soil.

This spirited design combines
slacks and q sports version of the
popular short swagger jacket-the
most comfortable pair in the world
for active outdoor hours. This suit
is new as next moment, casual and
gay as picnic. Its nonchalant
easy lines are as free as the air,
giving plenty of leeway for action,
and you can see for yourself how
charming it is to behold. The jacket

Queries
Lack of Friendship
Not Indicated bv
This Woman
BY EMILY POST,

Dear Mrs. Post: If an acouaint-
ance very frankly said: II like you,
Mrs. S., and hope we shall learn to
know each other better" and there
after never came to see you or sent
you any invitation, would you con-
slider that she really meant to be
friendly? This person has been
travelling for the past few months.
and l would like to see her very
much because never have a chance
to see the world except through the
eyes Of others. I hesitate to ask
her, however, because she is socially
more important than I am and 1
feel she should make the first move.
However, if you say I may ask her,
then should I ask others at the same
time?
Answer-I would say that, like so
many Of our intentions, hers to see
more of you probably failed to ma
terialize through no lack of friend
illness on her part. 1t would Ger
talnly be proper to write her note
and tell her you would like so much
to see her again and invite her to
lunch-or If this not not practical,
ask her to come in for tea on such
and such day. If she accepts. then
invite at least two other friends
who know her well or whom YOU
think she would find agreeable.
Dear Mrs. Post: Mrs. Blank is a
widow, aged IS; Miss Green is an
orphan, aged 25: Mr.. White is an
other orphan about 80 years old.
These three have met and like each
other very much and would like to
rent an apartment together, and in
this way have better home than
each has now living along in a fur
nlshed room. But would propriety
forbid this?
Answer-I think it would be en-
tirely proper. The widow would
certainly chaperon the others.

colors are olive "a green with a blue
cast) and Burma tan. Next in pop
ular choice is tropical worsted, a
comfortably cool fabric. These suits
in dark blue, blue gray and brown
are customed- tailored in sack style
with single-breasted closing, and are
favorites for summer business and
travel, even in cities famous for
high temperatures.
The big news of the season is the
lounge or spot suit with jacket
shirt. In wool gabardine, an outfit
of this type retails around $40; in
cotton hopsacking it is selling in
volume around IS. Blue-in navy
and medium shades-is the popular
color, followed by olive green. Men
this summer will wear this suit for
sports, gardening and week. end
lounging. The jacket-shirt is worn
outside the trousers and Is slashed
at the side to afford easy access to
trouser pockets.
Comfort is the keynote to all
summer fashions for men-even
shoes. With summer sports clothes
moccasins are the right shoe choice.
In Palm Beach the popularity of
this sport shoe was front page news
and it was even worn for cocktails
and small dinners. The moccasin,
fashion scouts tell us, will hold its
front place right through the sea-
son. Men like it for motoring and
country wear and it is the mocca-
sin that is replacing the Mexican
woven sandal, which men have pre-
ferred SO much in the past. Sports
moccasins retail from $295 to SIS.
They are unlined, soft soled and tie
around the ankle.
For sports that call for lots of ac-
tion-like sailing and tennis-men
prefer shorts. Wool gabardine, cool
because it does not absorb perspira-
ton, wins the highest vote. Cotton
hopsacking, sailcloth and denim,
less expensive, are close seconds.

ira swanky has shorts custom made

Dear Miss Dix-When my wife
and I married we were just chill
dren. We fell in love at first sight
and married in less than three
months, so we didn't have a chance
to find out much about each other
Since marriage I have discovered
that my wife loves to move. She
isn't satisfied to stay in one place
long at a time. and about the time
we get comfortably settled in a
house she packs up and goes some
where else. Outside of that she is a
perfect wife. good housekeeper

upholster the sofa in the same blue
as the walls, in a self-tone diagonal
stripe. The side chairs could be up
holstered in white leather which is
very easily cleaned with saddle soap
and water. The fireside chairs
could be upholstered in a figured
printed linen in tones of beige, blue
and burgundy. A scheme of this

can introduce any color you desire,
which you could not do with tiled
wall. Paint your walls pale gray
or light blue; apply paper in bor-
ders or panels in white and cherry

curtains could be white with red
