last year. However, you'll see plenty
of it this season, If the early trends
are any indication. The fitted
front and straight back favored by
Balenciaga is all part of the slim
silhouette, while, on the other hand,
Molyneux's full sweep and bell
sleeve is prime favorite with many
women. Full swaggers or fitted,
narrow garments hold an equal
place in the hearts of fur buyers,
who seem to think that this year
it's matter of taking your choice.
Particularly interesting to us is
the attention given to the younger
woman. If she has always yearned
after a Persian lamb but was con-
vinced that it was too 'old" for her,
she can see extremely youthful styles
in this fur. One that stands out
IN our mind is cut very straight
with an interesting front treatment.
1t is practically collarless-there's
a suggestion of a collar-and it has
those pockets that add so much
dash and snap to coats a la 1910.
Your figure, including height,
weight and proportions, should be
carefully considered when you pur-
chase a fur coat this season. Also
to be reckoned with are your ac-
tivities and the amount of hard
wear that your furs are to receive.
This. naturally, will include the
question of whether you must wear
one coat to Office and also for
dress" Equally important is the
price you can afford to pay. Re-
member that it's better to buy
good grade of less expensive fur
than poor quality of so-called
luxurious type, but whatever your
selection, get the best fur that you
possibly can and depend upon the
assistance of expert fur buyers to
help you with your selection. In
vestigate the summer sales. That
there are amazing values there
seems to be no doubt, and you can
save an unbelievable amount of
money by purchasing at this season.
And gosh! but it's nice and cool
in those fur salons!

DEAR MRS. POST: We have one
chair in our dining room that
matches the others except for nav
ing arms. Who Is supposed to sit in
this chair-the husband or the wife,
and If there is a guest of honor,
would she, or he, as a gesture of
special consideration, be given this
chair?
Answer-Usually there are two
chairs with arms. but when there is
only one chair, the one who is the
bigger should have it-this probably
means the husband. If they are the
same size then either draw lots for
1t or-give it to the wife-after all,
she is the head of the table! ANY.
way, this chair is given up only
when an occasional guest is very old
or very fat.

Although the unusual wedding
problem described to me in one OF
today's letters presents certain diff
culties, it seems to me that they can
quite easily be overcome. But first,
to repeat the letter:
"Is it possible for a widow bride
and a maiden bride to have a double
wedding? I have been a widow for
five years, but am only q. My sis
ter, who Is two years younger, is to
be a bride for the first time. Since
we are both engaged, she thinks it
would be lovely (and means it, If we
could be married at the same cere-
mony. Our parents would be very
pleased to have double wedding, If
this could be managed, but none of
us can see how. My sister wants to
wear a white dress and a brides
veil, and have al least two brides
maids, whereas I am not allowed
and neither do want to have-these
preparations"
My answer to this is that your
parents send out conventional invi-
tations to your sisters wedding, and
that no mention be made of yours.
You may, however, write notes to
the family of your fiance, and to
your own and his personal friends,
inviting them to your sisters we'd
ding, and telling them that you are
going to be married at the same
time.
For the wedding of your sister, all
the usual preparations will be made,
including her long-trained bridal
dress and veil. You could with per-
feet propriety be her matron of
honor and wear white, if she agrees
and you prefer it, to color Your
dress should not be suggestive of
bridal dress, and, of course, you wear
a hat instead of veil. Your flowers
should be sheaf like those carried
by the bridesmaids rather than one
suggestive of a bridal bouquet.
Whether your fiance might be an
usher, or better still, the best man,
depends upon your future brother
in-law. If they are not intimate
friends, your fiance could easily
come forward at the end of the first
ceremony from a front pew and join
you. Your sister and her husband
stand aside together during a second
ceremony for you. In the reces-
sional, your sister and her husband
60 out first and you and your hus-
band follow them, ard after you the
bridesmaids and then the ushers.
At the reception you receive to-
gether, hut your sister would stand
nearer the door than you. That is,
she and her husband are greeted
before you and your husband. You
and your sister can both have we'd

Remember, George, 1t is better to

Sure" said George, but his
mother was not as sure as all that
George was q poor loser. Let him
win and he was the sunniest boy
in town, but beat him, and he was
uglier than "all get out"
The boys played quietly for some
time. George won the first game,
Kent the next. Now came the play
of. Kent swept Georges last four
checkers of the board and cried,
"Winners!"
George went into a rage. He
threw the board across the room
and yelled, That's not fair. I didn't
see that king. You hid him. If I'd
seen that king you couldn't have
beaten me. No fair. I won't play
with you again, never. Go on home
and stay there. You cheated me" ."
Kent was astounded, as well he
might be. He looked at George
raving there. and then without a
word left the room.
George, George! What is the
matter with you anyway" his
mother called. You know you can't
talk to Kent like that. You know
perfectly well that he beat you
fairly. That's no way to take it.
You have to lose sometime. Kent,
come back. George must not act
like this"
"It's all right. Mrs. Cooley, Geor-
gle knows don't cheat. But I guess
we'd better not play together any
more" and away he went to tell
his mother and father what had
happened. He couldn't help seeing
my king. He was right on the
middle of the board. He showed his
man right in front of him and, of
course, cleaned him up. Then he
blew up"
We'll, maybe you'd better steer
shy Of him, for while anyway, and
give him time to cool of. How old
is he?"

When children play with grown-ur

Dear Miss Dix: am bride OF
six months, "a years of age, and
very much disgusted with life. I
have a husband with whom I am
very much in love, but who loves
money better than anything else
in the world. Up to the time was
married I had my own money,
plenty of nice clothes and $1,000 in
the bank. I am still working and
earning $50 a week. My husband
has our savings account in his name
and refuses to make it joint
account. I turn over my whole pay
envelope to him and out of the $50
I get So for living expenses, which
includes the laundry. He allows
me little extra-also out of my own
pay-to take care of my luncheons,
carfare, clothes and incidentals fer
the house. I have to do all Of the
housework. I haven't any money
Of my own any more. My clothes
have gotten shabby and he often
tells me how homely I have become,
which is simply because I haven't
the clothes now that used to have.
What would you advise me to do?
Leave him while I am still young,
or continue living with him as
sort of business partner? I feel
that he only cares for me as the
means of getting some extra money.
DISAPPOINTED.
Answer don't see why you look
upon yourself as a sort of business
partner" to a husband who gives
you as rotten a deal as that. Part
ners share equally in the profits
of business, while you are merely
q slave.
The man you are married to isn't
q real, husband. He is a padrone
who hires you out and collects your
wages. Your position is intolerable
and I shouldn't think it would take
you more than two minutes to read
an emancipation proclamation to
your grasping husband, and If he
refuses to treat you fairly to put
on your hat and walk out. At least
then you would have the money
you earn by your own labor instead
