Sheila glanced at the graceful
giant bird swooping over the ship.
1t was a heart warming sight
after so many days Of nothing but
sea and sky with an occasional
island for Jim to be so excited
about IL.
I'D rather listen TO you" she
said. Go on. Tell me some
more"
"oh, that was all. The prisoner
was found later so badly burned
that he died Over there if you
look carefully you can see where
the new city has been built but 1t
has a new name and is a safe dis
lance away"
II was when he talked about
Rio however that Sheila was most
interested. He called it THE city
of a thousand entertainments" and
promised to show it to her during
their day and night in port.

would like to say. He had told her
she was beautiful and one of the
most charming girls he had ever
known. He also confided that
when he married, he preferred an
American girl but one who would
be able to fit into his present sur
roundings. so many of them

flashing smile.
Shelia's liking for him was so
confused with her curiosity about
the city they were approaching
that by the time they crossed the
equator she could not have told
which interested her most-Rio de
Janeiro or Richard Maxwell.

Nevertheless she considered Jim
Davis remarks on the subject a
breach of their contract.
They were standing at the rail
looking towards the prov of the
ship the night after the Captains
dinner. 1t was one of the few
occasions when they had been
alone. Both had kept the promise
to act as if they had not met be-
fore. No one on the ship suspected
that they had known each other
all their lives.
Jim said awkwardly, You're
looking unusually pretty tonight"
Sheila thought amused. He
would put it like that. AS if
ordinarily went around looking
like a bag or something" But
when he continued she realized
that the compliment had been
thrown in to sugar coat his next
remark.

sisted in claiming my marital
rights.
So. as I say. I divorced my UNI
loved and unloving husband. 1t
takes courage to give up your
husband 10 someone else and then
readjust your own life accordingly.
I know because I've been through
1t just as many so-called dreadful
divorces have been through IT.
l had to 90 TO work again-back
In the business l thought and
hoped I had left for good. It's a
complete mental, moral and physi-
cal readjustment, but it's not an
impossible one.
And my husband? Well. he
married the other woman. In fact
they have been married for sew
eral years and have children. But
he comes back on the slightest
pretext to see our children--and
though / object to these visits
within myself. still I do nothing
to prevent him from coming or to
hurt him in the eyes OF his own
children. They have absolutely no
feeling for their father (they were
young when he left US, yet he is
sure I have poisoned their minds
against him because they demon
strate no affection for him.
Oh. you wives. who are so very
wise - why don't you admit the
truth-that n a man were interest
ed enough In you to marry you.
there must be some reason other
than another woman" to sen him
astray. Let all OF US wives look
at ourselves In the mirror and
ask. Are We trying to maintain
the best appearance possible ?"
When we have smarter-looking,
more interesting wives we will
have less reason to fear those
dreadful Divorces"
And in closing let me say that
many Of US are not looking for
another womsn's husband. In fact
lots Of US don't want any man, for
often one Is enough. We've been
through the mill and are not will
ing to jump back into the fire
after having been burned. No. we
don't want some other womans
husband. After I was divorced q
married man fell in love with me
and I could have learned to care
for him, too. could have broken
up that home and still could, for
he still imagines himself very much
in love with me. Instead OF going
in for misunderstanding, sat down
and gave him a serious talking
to. Well. l am not trying to pose
as a great and generous soul. but
at least that IL one home a wife
can thank a divorcee for saving
for her-and not accuse her of
breaking It up.
So now, wives. don't judge d.
vdrcees too farshly. You may be
divorces yourselves. some day.

I know. because I found out
that my husband was really In love

contented husbands are not phil

wives should remember that when
they start blaming Divorces and
other women for their troubles.
Husbands who get all the affec-
ton and attention they want at
home are usually too contented to
cast their eyes in the direction Of
other women.
Wives. like everyone else, have
Z lot to learn. Too often, after

the idea It U all right to forget

Feet BetraY Your Standing
Among Well-qroomed Women

Your feet - the way you hold
them when you are sitting. the
way they look when you walk
and what you wear on them-tell
the world more about your age
and what sort Of person you are
than your couture or the most
carefully applied makeup.
COMFORTABLE SHOES
NEEDN'T BE DOWDY
Shoes can be comfortable with
out being so sensible looking that
they detract from the charm of
dress or suit above them. Wear
low-heeled shoes by all means If
you like. but see that they are
smart, trim low-heeled shoes-not
squat dumpy ones. To wear with
your best silk dresses. for ocea-
sions where no walking is re-
quired, have at least one pair
with slightly higher heels and
not-so-sensible last.
Watch the stocking situation.
It's a good idea to wear not-so-
sheer ones for sports and during
working hours, OF course, but
every woman needs sheer, filmy
ones for dancing and dress-up &C.
casions. They make ankles and
legs seem younger as well as slim
mer.
You put yourself in the I'm
too-old-to-care class the moment
you think the time it takes to
keep legs free from superfluous
hair is time wasted. You just
aren't at your perfectly groomed
best unless your legs are smooth
and free from hair.

PERENNIAL STANDBYS
