Dorothy Dix Says

1t is a curious fact that the
great majority Of housewives
seem to undervalue their jobs.
They may have made homes that
were temples of refuge not only
to their families, but to all who
crossed their thresholds. They
may have boosted their husbands
into success. They may have
reared children who are the very
backbone OF their country. Yet
they felt what they were doing
did not matter. They were less
proud of their achievements than
If they ran a shoppe that sold
junky antiques, or designed a
freak hat.
Every woman who has ever
written a book, or painted a pic
ture that sold, or delivered a lee
ture for which she was paid, or
been atmosphere in a moving pic
ture, or had any mediocre sue
cess in work done outside of the
home has hundreds of domestic
women say to her: How I envy
you! How I wish I could do
something worthwhile as you are
doing! I always feel that have
been such a failure"
Perhaps these women who think
so humbly of their calling as wife
and mother and homemaker will
take more pride in their occupa-
ton when they realize that their
forsaking their traditional roles
and going into war work has pre-
cipitated a crisis that is shaking
society to it's foundations.
For it seems that Nom is not
the insignificant figure that she
has esteemed herself to be. She is
the kingpin that holds the uni
verse together and without her, as
in the old nursery rhyme, the fire
won't burn, the water won't boil,
the stick won't beat and every
thing goes to Wrack and ruin.
Terrible things are happening.
The whole scheme of life is upset.
There is no more peace and quiet
anywhere. Decency is outmoded.
Divorce is on the rampage. Mid
dle-aged husbands, who used to
spend their evenings resting their
feet and reading the sport page,
have taken to chasing strange
women. The baby is parked in
the day nursery, and the Adde'S
cent children are God knows
where.
And with Mamma making rivets
instead OF baking cookies, with
nobody to cuddle them when they
are sick and keep an eye on their

ideas. Square necklines are often
pulled down in the corners by
bows for a come-hither note on
crepe dresses, while other dress
up dresses go so far as off-the-
shoulder bateau necklines and
even evening strap decolletages.
These bare lines often play
peek-a-boo with jackets and bo-
leros which do a convincing
cover-up job when they have to
do daytime duty.
THE 1914 SKIRTS ARE
TICKLE and do the town with
half a dozen different partners.
One might be a waistcoat, an
other a tunic, another an over
blouse, shirt-or just a beautiful
frilly affair. In other words, the
shirt and skirt look will still be
good-and the top will set the
mood for the costume.

The New Look for Spring
By Evelyn Hayes

Whats going to be good this
spring." runs an oft-voiced ques-
ton to our corner, to which we
often give the answer, Every
thing that's wearable." In other
words, you'll look smart wearing
what you have if what you have
is not out-and-out threadbare
However, there are certain signs
of spring 1914 which you might
keep in mind if you have to fill
in your wardrobe or revamp it
so we'll take a robin s-eye view OF
what's ahead.
COATS TELL A SHORT
STORY for spring. This is not
the year for a special-occasion
coat because coats, like their
wearers, must work full time,
amiably covering anything from
suits to dinner dresses. Short
coats do just that-and they've
taken the fashion world by storm.
Some shorties are straight and
boxy-and others are belted-a
fragrant steal right off the backs
Of our handsome flyers. All short
coats are wonderful with bright
costumes-and equally effective
as the bright spark to a dark out
fit. Another current fashion event
is the collarless coat-quite in
line with the slim pared-down
look of spring 1914.
SUITS SPEAK WITH
CLIPPED ACCENTS, TOO-the
newest having very short jackets,
crisply tailored, sometimes show
ing the color of the blouse be-
meath. The most exciting chapter
in the suit story is the bolero
which will be everywhere. Some
are so scant they barely cover
the bare facts beneath-which is
often low-cut dress. Try cutting
down the jacket of an old suit to
bolero brevity and see how the
jutting lines minimize the hips.
The waistcoat is another typi-
cally 1914 fashion. The dandy
lines of this very short jacket
dipped in front to suggest a vest
are most feminine and flattering
If your hips are slim.
- PARDON US, LADY-BUT
YOUR WAISTLINE'S SLIP
PING! Well, not really-but
there is a trend toward slightly
lower waistline and certain styles
do give the impression of lower
lines. One is the overblouse. No
matter what you call this style
(some call it MILDLY" or pull
on') its new sleek line is daz-
zlingly young. This long-bodied
line often has hipline interest
via cuff or low-slung bow, but
let us warn you it is not a lovely
line on any but the lean. Many
of these long-torso dresses are
really one-piece, giving the i'm
preston that they are two-piece

comings and goings, the children
have run wild. Jackie has gotten
in with tough crowd and Jane
is picking up boys in the street
and we have a delinquency prob
lem that nobody on earth can set
tie but mothers. For it seems that,
little as she esteemed it, the do
mestic woman's job Is the most
important one In the world and
the one on which all the other
jobs depend for success.

Inspiration

Anne Jeffreys, playing In
Manhattan Serenade," can't get
enough flowers, both of the gar
den and chintz variety, in her
home.
Her bedroom Is done in pale
green walls with spashy lowered
chintz hangings. Plain pink
covers the chairs and white goat
hair rugs are scattered about.
Mirrors are everywhere.
With all these ideas floating
around, We became so ambitious
that we reprinted our daughters
room and made new draperies,
bedspread and dressing table
skirts. Fun!

NECKLINES ARE NEW in

WHEY had started marriage with
! such high hopes . pretty Ellen
and her handsome Don! They had
u known that love is as fragile as it is

Doctors KNOW that too many women
still do not have up-to-date information
about certain physical facts. And too
many who think they know have only
half knowledge. So, they still rely on
ineffective or dangerous preparations.
You have a right 10 know about the
important medical advances made dur
ing recent years in connection with this
intimate problem. They affect every
woman's health and happiness.
And so, with the cooperation of doc
tors who specialize in women's medical

Just published an authoritative new

He won the club X lead with Tho
A and Immediately raked in ths
heart A and x. as soon as he s.w
his side had nine trumps and on,v
four were out against him. IN
those first three tricks he made
his contract impossible. To the
fourth he led the heart J. which
West took with the @. Sou.b's
only hope was that West wou,d
not return a spade, but the sj.us.
ton he saw compelled that lead
Consequently three spade tricks
beat the contract.
All that South had to do n
make his contract alright, afte,
winning the first trick with tina
club A in the dummy. was to
finesse the heart J.. West could
have won that. but his side could
then have scored only two tricks
in spades. since the heart 8 would
have remained in dummy to police
the third round Of the suit with g
ruff.

ABANDON YOUR CUSTOM

THERE is nothing the matter
With the usual policy of scoring
the ace and king first if there are
nine trumps on your side. Follow
ing it every time, however, is just
plain bad bridge! If finding n
opponent with a doubly guarded
queen would beat your contract in
case you took your two tops at
the start. it may be highly ad-
visable to attempt a tinesse first,
or even deliberately give up a first
FOUND trick in trumps, especially
if that is necessary to leave a
trump in the dummy for rufhng.
