"A EYL1FE is one long fight
MI against despair
! v i writes Charlotte Green
from Minneapolis. "That's a
dreadful way to put it, but it's
true. I've been married II years,
and every day of every one of
them has been hard and disap-
pointing. It's about time says
my 14-year-old daughter Claire,
that something nice happened
to the Green's and I have been
saying that in my heart for all
these years. But the nice things
happen to other folks, never to
us.
"When Fred and I married we
had no money but his salary of SIS
a week, but our friends were mar
rying on less than that, and we had
no fears. Fred also had comfort
able old house; we moved into it,
determined to make it all over some
day. But Fred's salary today is $48
a week and commissions, and we
are still in the unchanged old
house.
"This isn't all his fault, nor all
mine. Three years after our mar
riage, before my second daughter
was born, he had a long illness,
and he has never been strong
since. He is laid up for weeks every
winter and unable to hold his own
with other men.
Erred is AZ, I am 38. We have
five daughters and one son. One of
our girls is not quite normal in
mind or body, needing special care
and teaching. My two oldest girls,
Doris and Claire, are already work.
ing, deprived of the young freedom
and pleasure girls ought to have,
knowing nothing of college, frocks,
sports, trips, advantages. Claire
is good and steady, working in
factory. Doris on the other hand is
pretty and discontinued, and is an
usher in a movie house, a very
undesirable occupation for such a
girl.
'Rut of Discouragement.'
II take care of my delicate little
Yvonne, and of the three younger
children, steady grind of domestic
work, Enlightened by any hope that
things ever will be any easier. My
son, II, having long leased US for a
bicycle, borrowed one, saying
man gave it to him, and last week
we had the police here. The case
was dropped, but Richards hard
and resentful attitude frightened
me; am afraid he will do the same
thing again. He is strong, deter
mined boy, and bitterly resents our
poverty and the shabby old house
in which we live.
Erred strains himself to the ut
most to earn more, and I scrimp,
save and plan every moment of the
day and often for most of the night,
but the Greens seem sunk in rut
Of encouragement and discomfort,
and nothing we can do gives us any
hope of escape.
'Now, with prices rising every
day, and the younger children's
needs of clothing, dentistry, school
ing rising too, I really-as I began
by saying, am fighting long fight
against despair"
This is tragic letter, and Char
lotte Green's situation is a hard
one. 1t is that of thousands of wom-
en- who find themselves suddenly
engulfed in Wifehood, home-mak-
ing, motherhood, with increasing
cares and responsibilities and ex-
penses clinging like a ball and

Carriage Trade Gains

Little people are big business.
The baby-food industry reached
the 100 million dollar mark last
year from the sale of cans and jars
OF strained and chopped foods.
Sales increased TIT per cent in five
years. Baby foods are the largest
single item among canned goods,
and, in volume, represent about 3.5
per cent of all canned fruit and
vegetable sales,

one or combine some of these fea-
lures on a dress or suit in which the
lines are still good this season.
You'll find that many dresses and
suits can be adjusted to meet the
new, longer hemline requirements
very readily. Naturally there will
not be, in most cases, enough hem
Of the original material to turn
under to form the customary two
inches, but then there are tapes that
can be purchased and inserted on
the hem for the part that turns
underneath.
For heavier materials, select the
heavy satin tapes in matching
goods. For crepes and lighter weight
materials, cotton or rayon tape will
be quite suitable. If the skirt is
fiared or full and circular, the turn
under part need not be two inches.

because of its severe lines. For this
there are several solutions, and all
the changes may be made above
the waist.
The easiest one, of course, is to
invest in some new and smart cos
tune jewelry. High, rounded COLI
tours in styled designs are the
new note in jewelry. It's quite the
thing, too, to have necklace, brace
let and ear rings to match. Whimsi-
cal things such as initials and proc
lamations of love are also the cur
rent fad.
Black net and sheer are used for
the sleeves and yoke treatment on
many a basic black dress. Add
rhinestone trimming or sequins if
you want an even dressier number.
Plastrons-those pieces of mate
rial which are made to cover the
whole front top of the dress-are
popular for remodeling. Let them
extend in sort of blousy effect for
four or five inches below the waist
line. Select a print that goes well
with the basic color you are using,
or use a bright colored solid with
the black, brown, grey or beige
basic dress.

Remodel Other Dresses
With Remnants

ncHOucl Otner dresses
With Remnants
Some of the dresses you'll want
to restyle will need extra pieces of
material. First of all, there is the
dress which has worn or outmoded
sleeves, but an otherwise good
front. For the short sleeved dress,
the problem is solved simply by
adding new sleeves of another ma
terial that goes with the dress you
are using. But do not be satisfied
with just adding sleeves of the same
material-use some of it in the belt
or as piping for the pockets or down
the front bodice, so it appears to be
part of the dress.
If the skirt of dress is good, then
add blouse with a peplum for the
top. But salvage enough material
from the top of the dress to use as a
Peter Pan or pointed collar on the
blouse.
Another suggested treatment for
topping a dress is to remove yoke
and sleeves and sew another of con-
trasting material. The new yoke can
come down to point on the dress.
For sleeves that are too small
and need only an inch of material,
it's possible to insert contrasting
colored banding down the length Of
the sleeve, starting at the neckline.
Make belt of the same banding.
For sleeves torn at the elbow,
arrange to insert three bands in cir
cular fashion, and then use the
same band in some way elsewhere
on the dress-at neck, as belt or
even in the skirt if it is fared. This
last, incidentally, is a good way of
adding length to a circular skirt,
Use the same number of bands in
the skirt as you do around the
elbow.
Make a New Dress
From Two Old Ones
Let's say that your closet con-
tains two unwearable dresses, one
plaid and the other a solid. The
plaid might be used for skirt and
sleeves of the new dress, while the
solid colored dress could easily be
used for the torso, making this in
the new longer effect.
If there is not enough plaid to
make the skirt, use the solid color
for skirt, sleeves and collar with
the plaid for the blouse. Even the
yoke might be made of solid color,
II necessary.
