II don't know where all the men

said the bridal consultant at one of

you're planning to be married and
had thought your idea was original,
we hasten to add that you're not,

Wars have never discouraged
women from having the prettiest of
all possible weddings-and this wars
brides are no exception. They are
determined that Hitler will not spoil
their dream of being a vision of
loveliness on the Day of Days and
so the majority of today's brides
are going all out for a traditional
wedding complete with long train,

and orange blossoms and diamond
sparkling on the right finger. Not

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: I have been mar
ried more than 25 years and feel
that it is unfair for me to continue
any longer to live with my husband
when I do not love him, when our
tastes are entirely different and my
only interest in him is in the ma
terial things that his money buys.
My husband is a fine man, very
popular among other men, and very
successful in business, but feel that
he is not happy. So it seems to me
that if I get a divorce it would be
better for all parties concerned and
I, for one. would have clear con-
science. Please tell me what to do.
A WONDERING WIFE.
Answer-Whose desires are you
considering in contemplating a di-
vorce, your own or your husbands?
Is there another man or another
woman in the case? Are both of
you eating your hearts out with a
hopeless passion for some one
nearer to your hearts desire than
the mate you have? All of these
things are important factors in de-
Gliding whether you should leave
your husband or not.
If your husband is madly in love
with some other woman who would
give him the love and tenderness
that you cannot give him, woman
who would enter into his interests
and make marriage a joyous COM
panionship. instead of the drab and
dull routine of two mismated people
living in the same house, it might
be noble thing for you to set him
free

Of naming the day, the girls make
the best Of 1t and often order an
entire wedding party before the date
is set. And that goes for weddings
with six bridesmaids!
First choice among brides is shin

the dim lights of a church cannot

Grafton. This years gowns, often
inspired by the gowns of yesteryear,
frequently achieve a romantic Off
the-shoulder effect through the use
of gauzy-sheer yokes and have skirts
designed to be worn over hoops. At
one shop, they tell us that they sell
hoops or crinolines with every bridal
gown. An exquisite version of this
type of gown is of ivory satin
magnificent and shimmery-with
panels of museum worthy seed pearl
embroidery down the front and en-
belliShing the sheer yoke. Here is

But apparently such is not the
case. You have no other woman for
Justification. If your husband is
suffering from a broken heart, he
gives no sign of it. You don't even
seem to have any proof that he is
unhappy.
You, also, seem to have no emo
tional reason for wishing to di-
vorce your husband, except that you
have lost your taste for him and are
bored and, believe me, if all the
middle-aged people ditched their
spouses because they had ceased to
thrill over them. there wouldn't be
many homes left intact.
Your trouble, as I see it, is that
you are expecting to feel like a
bride after you have been married
for Is years, and it simply can't be
done. You get over being starry
eyed after you have looked upon the
faults and foibles of your mate for
years and years, but in its place you
get habit of living together that
makes for great peace and comfort,
and very few middle-aged couple
ever part without regretting it.

Spring Wedding Bellies

bell sleeves and sheer yoke frosted
with seed pearls. Another dream
dreSS-this one Of clustered sim
plicity-is made of white jersey with
beaded leaf motif outlining the
waistline and neck and has its own
nunlike headdress. This is no
gown for the faint-hearted! 1t
must be worn with an air.
Norman Norell has given this
years brides one of the youngest
and most romantic of bridal gowns
and it is orly fitting to add that
the given" is' definitely figure Of
speech in the light of the price tag.
Made of ivory silk (spelled s-i-l-k)
taffeta with low round neck, it has
yards and yards of billowing skirt
and train G-85 allows brides their
moment of gloryD and a shep-
herdess midriff that laces on large
cluster-pearl buttons. Definitely a
memory maker-and bank breakerl
However, you don't have to be
rich to be romantic bride. One Of
the most story book gowns we have
seen is also one of the most mex
pensive. White rayon faille makes
this one with its tight-fitting basque
jacket and full skirt. A miniature
jabot of Irish-type lace f1ourishing
at the convertible neck
line adds to the picture value and
the same lace edges sleeves and the
prim little peplum.
If you're planning to be married
later on, picture yourself in clouds
n q
youthful ruf1es of eyelet embroidery.
Or consider the effect of feminine
froths of net. There's a beauty
with off-the-shoulder ruff1ed lace
bertha and hipline ruffle to swish as
you Walk-all of which add up to a
very Scarlet O'Hara effect. And
don't forget she did get Clark
Gable!
Some girls like the Idea Of wear
ing their wedding dresses after the
ceremony-for USO parties, bene-
fits, and the like. For them, there
are long dresses without trains. A
bride who will be married in the
country might choose one of white
organdy with panels of ruffles up
each side of the skirt, the bosom
softly draped. Or another of dotted
swiss with minute ruffle outlining
the sweetheart neckline as well as
the flounce that swirls up the back
of the skirt from the hem to wait
line in the best Southern belle man
ner. Try crinoline or hoops under
this number and the effect will be
so convincing you'll probably find
yourself saying "Ah do"

Your Psychologist
By DR.. w. II. Young

Many people suffer from feelings
Of panic and fear for which there
seems to be no reason. Such vic
TINS are usually highly nervous,
have difficulty sleeping. and ex-
perience peculiar nervous sensa-
tions throughout their body. Such
symptoms are extremely terrifying,
and when prolonged the patient
becomes weak and feels worn and
tired.
Such sensations, accompanied
with fear are the result of a sub
conscious complex, or fear pattern
in the depth Of the inner mind.
The cure of such cases is assured
when attacked from a psycholog-
ical standpoint.
Many such victims are finding
lasting relief from their troubles
through psychology. You too may
have your health and happiness
