Dependable, Reliable, Steady Husbands Are Made, Not Born By RUTH MILLETT X Hollywood beauty sues foi divorce on the grounds that her husband says he wasn’t “made for marriage.” Look, lady. No man was ever made for mar r i a g e. Women are made for marriage, yes. It is what ihost of them want from the time that they are o 1 d enough to notice the boy next door. But men aren’t. Settling down to become good husbands and Ruth Millett tural with them. fathers isn’t na Kot at all. They have to be broken l0 the harness by the woman who succeeds in getting them to the altar. That’s the woman’s job. For tunately, most women realize that and don’t throw up their hands helpless^ the first time the man they married kicks up his heels a bit and looks longingly toward the open range. It's true your husband came right out and claimed he wasn’t made for marriage, proving him self either less tactful or more courageous than most men who have taken on wives. CHALLENGE But don't think just because thev haven’t been told, other wo men don’t know their husbands weren't made for marriage either. They know, all right. But they don't let it discourage them. They just accept the fact as a chal lenge. And in 10 or 20 or 3C years they have steady, dependable hus bands who aren’t even conscious there is such a thing as an open range beyond the marriage which has neatly fenced them in. So if you ever try marriage again, lady—don’t be surprised if you once more find yourself liv ing with a man who isn’t made for marriage. There’s no other kind. If ETAOIN L_ want-c ETTA And if there were, wouldn’t mar riage be dull for women? Imagine marrying a man who was made for marriage. It wouldn’t be any challenge at all.

He added that gasoline rationing coupons are not neded to obtain tire purchasing certificates and said that their possession would not aid an applicant in getting such a certificate.

Imports of raw ma terials have begun, and by next spring spinners will be in a position to fill orders, thus ushering in a new era for France’s third-largest key in dustry. In this article, the first of several from the style capi tal, Miss Hargrove prevues Lucien Lelong’s fall collection. By ROSETTE HARGROVE PARIS, Sept. 7.—Lucien Lelong opened fall presentations with per haps the most spectacular collec tion he ever produced and one typical of the best that Paris can offer. Even blase fashion experts crowding three luxurious Avenue Maintenon salons could not re frain from spontaneous applause. The departure from all-round peasant skirt fullness in favor of a basically slim form-fitted silhou ette was the general leit motif oi the collection. Subtle draped ef fects appeared over hips and full ness was seen massed at front or side. The bust once again is un derlined and the waistline remains waspish though slightly lowered, with corresponding lengthening of hemline skirts covering the knees. Shoulders often emphasized un derlined folds, continuing to the waist in jackets and in draped fischus for both daytime and eve ning wear. Set-in Sleeves Sleeves were straight and nar row, set in at top of arm of else cut in one piece with the bodice. High daytime necklines hugging the base of the neck contrast with ultra-low decollete for formal year. Suits topped waist-length jackets fitted to the waist, with flared basques concentrating fullness at front. Large patch pockets trim med informal clothes. Afternoon suits show fingertip and longer jackets with a new front line caught up at both sides or at one side only in a draped effect. Alternately, Lelong launch es finger-tip unfitted, diagonally fastened coast, topping pencil slim skirts. A shortage of luxury furs re suits in restrained trimming in the form of small tailored collars and cuffs or narrow edging. Other Sketches by Jean George, NEA Staff Artist Lelong’s fall collection features high-necked black cocktail dress, left, with draped effects over hips and fullness massed at front or sides. Evening gown, right, fea tures siren-like lines. wise, jackets or coats are lined with domestic pelts for extra warmth. Cocktail and dinner dresses herald return of black for all formal formal occasions. Styles are reminiscent of merry widow fashions. Spectacular evening dres ses alternate between bouffant skirts or those with siren-like lines, which have deep sweetheart oval or off-shoulder decolletes. Several models launched upstanding and halter-like draperies over a bare back. The more romantic evening dresses were lavishly trimmed with exquisite embroidery, as, for example, a steel-grey faille model, trimmed with silver paillettes. A good deal of black jet pallette em broidery on all-black gowns made especially striking ensembles. • Embroidered Jacket One short black velvet bell-shap ed jacket was entirely embroider ed with black cabochons and tas sels, and was lined with butter cup yellow satin. It was worn over a slim gown, horizontally draped through waistline and over hips. Lelong has introduced this finger-tip, unfitted, diagonally fastened coat, to be worn over pencil? slim skirts. Hats accompany all models save formal gowns. These are a third of the size hitherto worn, and offer a choice of mediumsized pill boxes worn over or off fore head, overseas caps, or onesided upturned brims with draped trimmings. Amusing Victorian bonnets are trimmed with aigret tes and birds of Paradise plumes, which are worn with long-sleeved dinner gowns. While black dominates the col lection, outstanding colors include all shades of green, brown and gray. Fabrics are mainly solid colors or two-toned checks. A few stripes were shown.
