For Truvelers-to-Be:
E. D. G., Arlington


Dear DIDO: You asked for
information on what clothing
to take on a six-week tour of
Europe. / made the trip in
June and July of 1854 and took
the following Il found my
wardrobe to be just the right
amount:
One tweed suit in light color,
one navy summer suit, two
white tricot blouseS, one navy
silk blouse, one navy dress
sweater, one yellow cardigan,
two rayon dresses, one cotton
cocktail dress, one rayon ace
tate dress, one full length coat.
I wore a small hat travelling
and it stayed in my bag most
of the time. I also took a two
piece nylon dress - this was
invaluable because travelling in
trains over there is quite a
dirty business. I wouldn't
take a fur coat or stole. If you
are on a tour you'll travel quite
a lot on buses and extra coats
are a burden. I mentioned the
colors because I found that

This is a requirement of ours

as that way you can keep your
finger on the culinary end.
The one big uncertainty in
Mexico is cleanliness-clean
water and clean food.
To my knowledge there are
not more than one or two mo-

The house that Glare Boothe
Brokaw came home to was
copy of a French Renaissance
chateau with bastions and
towers and pointed pinnacleS
on the corner of Fifth avenue
and Seventy ninth street. In
side it was massively gloomy.
Clare never had to do any
thing for herself, indeed, she
could not without hurting
some servants feelings. The
next spring she and George
went to live in Brokaw's pretty
country house at Port Wash
lngton. Long Island. and they
lived there quietly, for Clare
was expecting a baby, The
baby was born in August, 1924,
a little dark-haired girl. She
was christened Ann Glare
Brokaw.
Though Clare loved her, a
baby did not occupy the place
in her elaborate life that it
would in a more modest home.
This was not peculiar to the
Brokaws. but to almost every
one who lived as they did.
There were, there had to
be. trained nurses who were
jealous of their charges and
only grudgingly admitted a
mothers right to play with
her baby. Later a governeSS
would take the place of the
nurse, but the situation would
be the same.
Six Years
The fact that Clare's mar
riage lasted six years is proof
that she really tried. AS the
years of the marriage went on.
Clare became more and more
miserable. and George drank
harder and harder.
The curious affection that
existed between old Mrs. Bro
kaW and her daughter-in-law
somehow kept the marriage
going. Then. one spring, she
died. And Clare felt that the
time had come when she could
not stand it any longer.
1t was hard, in a way. to
leave George. Though later
there was a tremendous legal
hassle over the custody of Ann,
with George Gordon Battle
representing Brokaw, and bril-
liant Arthur Garfield Hays in
Clare's corner. while William
NJ. Chadbourne, beaming be-
nevolently on everybody, acted
as unofficial referee. the actual
divorce was amiable.
Finally Brokaw offered Clare
an alimony tax-free of $4,000
a year, as long as she did not
marry, or a settlement of

The second week the pay

man. He questioned her keen

knew she had made an impress
