New York Wears
By Eveiyn Hayes

Judging from the number of,
telephone calls we've had lately
asking what they are wearing
in New York, we'd guess that a
good portion Of Washington is
moving to the big city for the
next few weeks. Since the Easter
parade usually brings out all the

you'd be interested in what was

holds its own among women of
all ages, shapes and sizes. Some
times the calot was flower

plumage, and 1t looked new be-
cause it was smaller and because
the flowers were massed or cas-

Dorothy Dix
Says

One Of our famous jurists pre-
diets that after the war divorce
will reach an all-time high In
this country. 1t does not take
a learned judge, or even a crystal
gazer, to foretell that. Any one
with the slightest knowledge of
human nature and q grain of
common sense knows that thou
sands of the hurried-up furlough
marriages will not last as long
as the brides trousseau.
Undoubtedly a vast proportion
Of our young people do not re-
gard marriage as serious un-
dertaking. They look upon it as
an experiment, an adventure,
something that they will try
once, anyway, for the heck of
the thing, but that they won't
have to stick to If it gets too
tough. To them the marriage
bond is not the tie that binds,
but slip knot that they can
undo with their tongues If it
begins to gall them.
get innumerable letters from
war brides frankly stating their
position on the marry-at-sight
proposition. "All the girls are
doing It," they say. "It is so
romantic and thrilling marrying
a man you simply don't know at
all, instead of a boy you have
grown up with, and it is such
fun rushing around buying
wedding dress in a hurry. And
a military wedding is exciting,
with SO many men in uniform,
and cutting the wedding cake
with sword, and your husband
departing almost before you get
u SeCoIlQ look at MIN.
And all the girls who haven't
got 'em are envious of your we'd
ding ring. And you get your al
lotment, which helps out on your
salary and let's you buy the things
you have never had the money
for before. And after the dura-
ton when your husband comes
back, If you don't like his looks,
you can get a divorce. Every
body is going to be divorcing
after the war"
And the boys who marry girls
on a short acquaintance and with
out bothering to make any in
quiries about their pasts or their
presents, are equally certain that
all they have to do is to ask the
divorce courts to correct their
mistakes if they have guessed
wrong about being in love with
Sally or Susie, and it is really
Mary or Jane they want.
In reality, there is nothing In
the world more tragic than the
blind faith that the untappily
married put in divorce. They
seem to think that it works q
miracle that not only frees them
from the husband or wife with
whom they cannot get along, but
that it will remove every carping
care and make them radiantly
happy. Women, in especial, are
obsessed by the hallucination that
even, if they are middle-aged and
have houseful of children that
a decree absolute will turn them
back into being young and beau-
tiful girls again and make them
fascinating to men.
But the sordid truth is that
while divorce may deliver a wife
from a philanderer and a hus-
band from a nagger it has no
magic. that wipes out the past. It
reaches out into the future with
its disillusions, it's bitterness, its
tears and regrets, its wrecked
homes and its alf-orphaned chill
dren. So it is saddening thought
that after the war divorce is 60
ing to reach its all high peak.
What a pity that the young can
not realize that it is not a cure-all,
nor even an escape from the folly
Of rash marriage, and so refrain
from making the kind of mar
riages that are bound to end In
divorce!
