You'll 8dapt sweaters to ever-changing styles | find them in the natural linen shade, in color or white. One of the nicest things about these new sweaters is that they may be washed with perfect results. They have a sports look and are appropriate for actual sports wear, but they are de- cidedly feminine. You may wear one with a tweed skirt or if you like with your new Spring suit. Following the new blouse fashions they are made quite trim at the waistline and extend just a few ‘inches below the waistline so that you may wear them over the skirt or tucked in. Sleeves as a usual thing are shorter than elbow length and are made with a slight puff at the top with a ribbed band to hold them close a few inches above the elbow. You'll be surprised to see how becom- ing these new sweaters turn out to be, and because they can be kept perfectly clean just by careful washing they will be much more practical than the fine wool sweaters of last season which were only too likely to shrink after the first cleansing.

FEEL IT DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX EAR MISS DIX: Iam a man of 40. Although I am essentially a domestic man by nature, I have not married because until now 1 have had to take care of my parents and could not afford to support a wife. Now my parents are dead, but my brother de- mands that I send him menthly from $50 to $75 as he has a wife and two children whom he cannot make enough money to care fov properly. Now my question is: Am I entitled to think of myself and leave my brother and his children to their own fate? 1If I do, how can I be happy knowing the} are in need? If I married, would it be right to deprive my wife of comforts and luxuries in order to give to my brotherz If I marry, I think a woman between 28 and 30 would be more suitable for me than a younger woman. How can I meet girls of that age? Is it advisable w0 ~ marry without falling in love? I think it is enough to like a person and true love will follow. A LONELY BACHELOR. NSWER: It seems to be that 40 years of your life represents a big enough sacrifice to lay upon the family altar, but that, of course, is a matter between you and your conscience and your family affection. Just how much the stronger members of a family owe to the weaker ones is a difficult matter to decide. Once I said something to a very successful and wealthy man about his generosity to his brothers and sisters. “Generosity nothing! It is simple justice,” he replied. “If a ®ther and mother were rich and they gave one favored child all of their money, we would think he was a dastard if he didn't divide it with the other children. Some- times, in some way we cannot understand, parents do give to one child & better brain, more strength and energy, more talent to succeed than the others get, and I consider that he is just as much bound to share his success with his brothers and sisters as he would be if he had inherited the family fortune.” AT is one way and a beautiful and generous way to look at the subject. but unfortunately we cannot all approach it from the point of view of a millionaire and the question is not so casily settled when it comes down to dividing 8 moderate salary and when it forces a man to choose between supporting his brothers’ and sisters’ families or having one of his own. Will you not even be doing your brother a harm in shouldering his re- sponsibilities? Certainly there is nothing that breaks down a man’s morale so quickly as for him to become a parasite, and. if you will observe, the minute anybody begins supporting & man he invariably sits down and folds his hands and lets him do it. On the other hand, the necessity of support- ing those dependent upon him will stir a man up to do his best as long as there is a vestige of manhood in him. UT one thing T am sure of. If you are going to continue to support your brother, don't marry. You have no right to make a wife pinch and economize to give to vour family and there isn't a woman in the world who wouldn't resent vour doing so. You are quite right in thinking that a woman of 28 or 30 would be more suitable for a wife than a flapper. but I don't think that just liking is enough to marry on. It takes a lot of love to make marriage endurable and it isn't apt to come after marriage. So start in with a good supply. As for finding a woman of that age who is anxious to marry. you will need no search warrant. DOROTHY DIX.
