DEAR MARY HA VORTH: Last summer. while on vacation at the shore. I carried on I summer romance with a girl I met there. I felt at the time it was just I passing flirtation and thought the girl regarded it in the same light.

Since that time I have become enlzaged to Jean. I lovely girl whom I have been dating for two years. But also since last sum- mer I have been receiving let- ters from the girl I met at the shore.

I am afraid I em-ouraged her by answering her first few letters: but after getting engaged I wrote telling her of my coming mar- riage. and said I felt it would be best if we stopped correspond- ing. Unfortunately she doesn't feel the same Way Ind has Cf"? tinued sending letters which are more and more amorous.

I have tried every way I know to discourage her. but she pays no heed and now her last letter suites she is coming to live and work in my town. and that she in- tends to do her best to win my

I haven't yet told any of this to my fiancee, as I am afraid she won't understand and will break our engagement. which is the last thing I want to happen. as I love

i Was He Ever the Aggressor? l DEAR G. Y.: You say you car-

lried on a summer romance with Gail last season: but the aggres- sive character of her correspon- dence since then suggests to me that it was she who ”carried on" with you. In your naivete as re- gards women. you truly did think it was just a passing flirtation.

The feminine side of America's twenty-two million teenagers has established its own fashion history by adapting dungarees as the favorite form of apparel.

Today's crop. although more "hip" on wearing jeans than any youngsters since the fad began. have felt for some time that something new must be added.

They are identical in color and fabric to the levis and have the same stitching and copper rivets. The sole is leather

I'm sure. when in fact the girl had already made up her mind

of her attitude indicates.

Now. to give you perspective on

what goes on: It strikes me that Gail is at least partly responsible for your getting engaged to Jean 4let's call heri. Your reference to your fiance indicates that she is on a pedestal in your estimate. Seen through your eyes, she is I lovely girl, whom you deeply love. who might break the engagement if she felt you weren't the soul of honor. ctr. And you've been dating her for two years. From all of which I gather that you are a bit in awe of her. Your lighthearted exchange with the summer girl during vacation, and the subsequent build-up she is giving your ego. have primed your self-esteem and scif-ronfid- encc to the point of sparking your proposal to Jean. I think. Also you probably felt pushed to de- cisive action by Gail's campaign. Unconsciously you got the gist of her purpose some time ago. and realized your best defense was to take refuge in I firm com- mitment to another less driving woman - namely. Jean.

Fiancee Ought To Be lit-Ipful

However. it's likely Jean help- ed the proposal along. Girls who say ”yes” usually have fostered the question. Thus I doubt that she would hold you iinforgivable. it she heard the story of Gail's ieiiacity. She might consider you distressingly wobbly or unworld- ly. to be still involved in I cor- r J c you've tried to end. Biil the fact that you've asked Gail to stop writing. since you are engaged. puts you in the clear on the score of honorable intent - even though Gail has oulfoxed you so far. Certainly your fiancee ought to comprehend this.

My advice is to turn to Jean

lual trust and mutual helpfulness. and I habit of sharing difficulties (as well as the good things of life! are requisites of good part- riership. If your fiancee goes to pieces. or is hostile to you. be- cause of the problem. it means the relationship isn't worth much: and you may as well test it cour- ageously. If Jenn measures up. and knows about Call, and under- stands what your feelings are. you'll be t--io-against-one in pro-l tecting your love against piracy- which is as it should be. M. H.

Household Hint

When traveling by automobile. keep a fold-up tribe of shaving cream and some paper towels in thc glove compartment. when your hands are dirty and there is no washroom handy. just. squeeze an anch of the cream into the palm of one band. work it over your hands and wipe off with I paper towel.

By THE CANADIAN PRESS

The fashion of while wedding dresses introduced more than a century ago by the Empress Eu- genia. wife of Napoleon III is as popular as ever.

Before 1850 brides wore any shade that caught their eye. in- cluding reds. greens. purples and browns.

But .lacqiics llln-liel. Montreal specialist in bridal design. and a member of the Association of Canadian .Couturiers. said that while is not always too flattering to brides who have passed the mid-20s.

LIKES MUTE!) SHADES

Unless she is tall and quite slim he likes to dress the older bride inl muted shades such as champagne. which do not emphasize the figure. The grey-haired bride. be said. usually finds deep blue most flat- tering.

Michel likes to take his inspira- tion dlrectly from seasonal flowers. He is fond of soft pastels of sweet peas. which provided the color schemes for several of his wed- dings.

One white nylon organdy over palest pink. while her three attendants were in soft sweet pea shades of blue. mauve and pink. All carried matching bouquets of sweet peas.

In another wedding. the yellow centres of daisies carried by the bride. matched the underskirt of her white sheer gown. Her attend- ants were ln deeper tones of yellow.

SHIMMERING EFFECT

The couturier also used, navy or- gandy liberally heaped with white for bridesmaids' dresses at another wedding. A shimmering effect was created by using plain white or- gaudy embroidered In contrasting color. '

Michel also warns that some thought should be given to the way flowers photograph. Paler colors are recommended because deeper tones often show up too dark.

Todayls bride usually conforms to traditional white but she has made a slight concession to the current rage for colnr.by wearing pale pastels under white sheers.

when worn with light. airy ma- terials such as embroidered nylon organdy. tulle or lace. the result is a delicacy of coloring comparable to Dresden figurines.

The Empress Eugcnie is also credited with launching lace as a bridal favorite. Since the royal wedding gown cost the equivalent of WL000. s would have had few followers i I chine hadn't been invented to mass-produce lace.

PRACTICAL BRIDE!

This spring for as little I: 800 I bride can walk up the aisle en- veloped lri lace. She can manage on eveniless if she selects I com- bination of nylon lace and tulle.

Brides of today have I prnctifnl aide. Many choose dresses de- signed with jackets. boleros. redid- gotes. detachable ruffles or under- sklrts whch can be removed for evening or semi-formal wear after the wedding.

Shorter skirts are favored ever

floor-sweeping models because they convert readily with I bit of dye into party frocks. The redlngote style is good because the long jacket can be worn over I night- gown as a negligee.

Brides who want commercial dyers to transform their wedding gown into an evening dress should consult experts before selecting style and fabric. Many firms re- fuse to dye bridal attire unless it is simply styled and of study fab- r c

Loney Nuplials

St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, St. Lambert. Quebec Was the scene of ca beautiful candlelight wedding ceremony on Saturday. March 12 at 11 a.m..

when the Rev. J. A. Koffcnd united in marriage Margaret” daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 1-1,

Loney. to William T.. son of Mr. and Mrs. Percy Klnch of Toron- gi and formerly of Alherlon. P.

The church was decorated with spring flowers and tall white candles in candelabra.

Given in marriage by her father. the bride was radiant in a waltz-length gown of white ny- lnn net over taffeta. Her shoulde - length veil was held in place by a tiny coronet of pearls and she carried I white bible covered with red and yellow roses.

The bride's attendants were her sister. Christine. as bridesmaid and Mrs. Evelyn Poussey, as -matron of honor. They wore im- ilar waltz-length gowns of ice mug. and yellow taffeta. with small matching hats and carried nose- gays of white and pink carnatlons. The best man was Mr. M. Pous- sey, and ushering for the oc- casion were the bride'ii two brothers.

Following the ceremony . re. ception was held in Springfield Hall. St. Lambert. where the bridal couple were assisted in receiving by the bride's parents. Mrs. Loney was attired in navy

- blue with pink accessories and

a corsage of pink caniatlons. The bride's table wait: centered with a beautiful wedding cake top- ped with I miniature bride and groom which was flanked by at- tractive arrangements of spring flowers and. yellow tapers in silver tmndlesticks.

The rate at which you are loa- ing weight isn't nearly so im- portant ap your willingness to eat for normal weight and desire to fix good food habits.

i ELLEN'S

At midday the housewives at Alderlea fried new trout in but- ter to make one of the sweetest bites "this side of heaven" for their households. These were caught somewhere in this neigh- borhood of stream and millpond by the younger farmer of the place in those minutes of morn- ing be seized between the time he had taken grandaughter to the corner on her way to school. and the tractor from the gar- age to go to the first of the field work on the farm.

He is one of the. best of anglers -has been ever since those days when as I wee lad. with I loved bound-dawg for his companion he loved to whip the stream for its yieldings. Now the demands of his farming refuse to allow him much leisure to put to the pastime. Yet It times, little more than so many stolen minutes. we miss him from the place in the season. to see him return presently with I nice string of speckled treas- ure. What tells him of those bet- ter moments of angling? We have often wondered. Is it his survey of the sky? A noting of the dir- ection of the breeze which wand- ers in from some fastness over the hilltop? A ripple on the stream? A quality in the air we do not notice? We do not know. We only know that all It once he is gone from his cares about and later we are treated to I share of the catch. "Good!" we may breathe ad- miringly. we from whom every big one manages to get away. "Oh. just fair . . . I've seen better. But then the fishing is not what it used to be round about here."
