Favored length Is fourteen Inches from ground. As you see the new clothes, you'll be Impressed with the lack of trimming used on them for the very simple reason that so much interest is centered on fabrics. Decor is provided mostly by but-tons or interesting pockets. Fabric dominates every costume because so many lovely new mate-rials are now available," and so much can be done with each one as well as a combination of two of them. and shoulder lines. You'll be seeing large collars of arresting shapes everywhere on suits, dresses, coats and evening gowns. Forward Dy-ing collars and big, pointed cuffs give the clothes the movement for which the silhouette is distin-guished. Normal shoulders are still fash but that doesn't mean they look poor or droopy. The secret of the new and exciting line is the "rising" shoulder line, an optical illusion made by flanges and points shooting up from the bodice. Bias-cu- t shoulder folds and draped halter necklines will be popular. Other bodice interests include high-lace- pockets, bows, points and twists of fabric. Tuxedo treatments are coming to the fore in the new clothes, as well as the shorter length jackets and young-lookin- short, boxy coats. One of the more popular neck-line treatments seen thus far is called the two-wa- y closing neck-line which may be buttoned high or left unbuttoned to form a collar. This is seen on both coats and dresses. m wj; llliiiill 1 1 h llliwll '' ' '' ....

Even when the mature woman wears new clothes, grace, youth and a feeling of fluidity can be created. Even though basic slimness is evident in the designing of most clothing, fullness is used' here and there.

And why do so many engaged girls speak with assurance of the alter-ations they expect to make in their mates, once they are sure of them? Early married life consists, for such couples, in an unending war between Dick's preconceived ideas of what a wife should be, and Betty-Lou'- s iron determination that he shall abandon all his old ways, friends, amusements, in-terests. Whatever threatens successful marriage is of vital national impor-tance in these domestically-shake- n days, and this is one of the most serious threats. It seems to me that any mother or father who wants the future of a daughter or son to be somewhat secure, could do worse than warn that daughter or son of this particular danger. Here are some quotations from the letters of two June brides of 1947; one written from Montreal, one. from Tuscon, Arizona, and both with the same complaint. Two Letters "Harry," writes Joan, the Cana-dian wife, "used to come down to Buffalo on business, and our court-ship was there. He liked everything I did then, he likes nothing that I do now. My manner with his friends, my occasional loyal men-tion of my own country, my resent-ment of his mother's interference, the words I use, my handwriting, my liking to sing now and then, though my voice isn't anything re-markable, my planning of meals wouldn't bother with all this. I keep a spotless house and am a good cook; financially we have always been solvent. But I want my marriage to be perfect, and want your advice about mine." Well, my advice to Ethel and to Canadian Joan is the same. In the early years of married life, it is salutory to remember that you two girls picked these men to be your mates, and the fathers of your children. You picked them as they were, and they chose you the same way. To all of us character changes are distasteful, to say nothing of their being extremely difficult. The impluse to improve must come from within, never directly from without. If his wife is gentle, good d, appreciative and companion-able, Fred can be brought to a condition so improved as to aston-ish even the rather smug and faultless Ethel. She has only to tell him that he was wonderfully nice with her friends tonight, she has only to say that considering what Fred has made of himself without much schooling, it is not surprising he doesn't feel that Peter aged less than two years at this writing! may not need college. If Ethel has any sense at all, she will let the far future take care of itself. As for Joan. Well, she must re-member that between the two great English-speakin- g races there is a jealous cousinship. Harry is anx-ious to be proud of his American-bor- n wife. Her Americanisms in pronunciation, in customs, her ex-pectation of finding all the freedom in her girlhood in this marriage, cause him constant wincing, con-stant sensitiveness. If she'll keep that constantly in mind for a year or two, there is nothing in her prob-lem that cannot be solved for the happiness of them both. ". , . crushed, dumb feeling . . " everything! For days I go about with a crushed, dumb feeling of being an utter failure. Sometimes I try to discuss matters with him, but he resents that. He is the master, and what he says goes, and what I say is just annoying and boring." Now here is the Arizona letter, in part. "Fred," writes Ethel Nelson, "knew when I married him that he had faults, serious faults. He prom-ised to amend them. He was, and is, a successful businessman, but without any background. He never finished grammar school, rarely reads a worth-whil- e book, knows nothing of music or art, has abrupt gruff manners at times, pooh-poo-me when I talk of college for the baby, goes with his old crowd of poker-playin- g noisy as-sociates, and in no wav has shown any inclination to improve, or to take my constant suggestions ser-iously. "I hate nagging wives," the let-ter goes ori, "and I try not to nag. But I want Fred to be a gentleman. I want to be proud of him, and have him a man who will never shame or embarrass little Peter. But I make no headway and, on the contrary, Fred, is getting Into a chronic state of ugliness and re-sentment, slams doors, eats meals in silence, talks or gulps coffee with a mouth full of food, slings his clothes about, and last week made a real scene when I spoke of the baby's daily bath and said, before several of my friends, that he never had seen the necessity for it himself.

May You Get into Trouble By Doing Nothing At All? Two coeds went swimming at a lake resort, but soon lost sight of each other in the water. When one of the girls was unable to locate her companion, she became alarmed and reported her fears to the proprietor of the beach. He re-plied: "She is probably on the hore look around for her!" The A woman was driving along a narrow side street when she came to a main thoroughfare. She no-ticed a car coming, but since it was still some distance away she started across. Just then, the oncoming car suddenly speeded up! There was a crash, and the man driving the other car was hurt. Later he sued the woman for damages, insisting that he had the right-of-wa- However, the court exonerated the woman from all blame. The judge said the man should have proceeded with caution. May a Convicted Killer Get a New Trial On a Mere Technicality? A young man was arrested on a charge of murdering his sweetheart. The trial lasted for several days, finally drawing to an end late Saturday afternoon. Anxious to wind up the case, the judge im-mediately began giving his in-structions to the jury. He talked, and talked, and talked until 10 minutes after midnight! Now it man made no effort to help find the missing girl. That evening, her body was recovered from the bot-tom of the lake. The victim's fam-ily later filed a damage suit against the proprietor. In his de-fense, he argued that a person can't be held liable just for "do-ing nothing at all." However, the court disagreed and made him pay damages to the bereaved family. The judge said there are times when a person has no right to stand by and do nothing and this was one of those times! A woman was speeding past an amber signal when a taxi hit the side of her car. Her auto swung out of control and crashed into the porch of a house. Miraculously, no one was hurt 'but the owner of the house sued both the woman and the taxi driver for damages. The cabbie admitted his guilt, but the woman plead innocent. How-ever, the court decided she was just as responsible as the cab driver and had to pay part of the cost. If she hadn't been speeding, her car wouldn't have rolled so far. so happened that the local law pro-hibited any court sessions on Sun-day. When the jury brought in a "guilty" verdict, the convicted youth filed an appeal on the basis of this overlap into Sun-day morning And the court very reluctantly - granted him a brand new trial. The judge said it was just as wrong to break the rules by 10 minutes as by 10 hours! Don't Be Sorry For Tall Girls 'Strratoliners' Say They Like Height NEW YORK Don't be too sorry for poor Cousin Lucy because she happens to be 6 feet talL Maybe she likes it that way. Take 6 foot 2 Catherine Bedell, New York telephone operator and member of the Stratoliner club, who says: "You're all by yourself up there and it's nice. When I'm with our crowd I'm really annoyed because I can't see over their heads. A tall girl looks better in her clothes, too when she can get them. A lot of us make our own." It isn't any harder for a tall gal to get a job, she asserts, and a lot of medium sized men like to go out with a tall girl. "How do we like it? Oh, we think it's fine. Still, we do like tall men." Question 6 foot women and nine out of any 10 probably will tell you they like it that way. And you will note, too, that most of them wear high heels. And where do you find ten 6 foot women? There were 200 men and women as tall, or taller, at a convention just held here. There were delegates from 24 clubs the country over, such as the Kansas City Skyliners, Pittsburgh Star Dusters and a lot of others banded in the American affiliation of tall clubs. Men members must be 6 feet 2; women can get by at 5 feet 10. All of the elongated fraternity were much concerned with the problems as well as the advantages of their height. "Being tall is all right; but it has a lot of complications," says Chester Aronson, 6 foot 4 president of the New York Stratoliners and chairman of the convention. "Tall noonla can't find ranila |
