Prominent Indianans to
Participate in Carillon
Rites at Valley Forge
Senator Van Nuys, D. A. R. Members, and
Others Will Attend Easter Dedication of
Washington Memorial at Historic Scene.
“That we may not forget the lives they gave
Let deep bells sing the anthems of the brave.”

BY BEATRICE BURG AN
Times Woman’* Pare Editor
When Indiana's bf;ll in the Washington Memorial carillon at Valley
Forge, Pa peals on Easter Sunday, a singing tribute will be paid to
all the state's patriots Frederick Van Nuys, United States senator from
Indiana, will make the address at the dedication in the memorial chapel,
called the "American Westminster."
Many members of the Indiana Society, Daughters of the American
Revolution, and Miss Mary Hostetter, state chairman of the Indiana
bell for the national carillon, will visit the scene of the winter hardships
of George Washington and his army in the Revolu
tionary war.
On the soil made sacred in the struggle for human
liberty has been built this national shrine, represent
ing all Americas forty-eight states. The women,
many ot whom have given their sons and husbands
for their country's service, have contributed unstint
ingly to the endowment of the bells, and will be
prominent in the Indiana dedication ceremony.
"The Indiana Song of Service,” which will be
played on the carillon, was written by Mrs. James
L. Gavin of Indianapolis. Mrs. Eugene Darrach, state
chaplain, also of Indianapolis, will give the prayer.
Mrs. James M. Crankshaw, past state regent of
Ft Wayne, will deliver the message from Mrs. Edith
Scott Magma, president general of the D. A. R. Mrs.
Roscoe C. O. Bryne, regent, will accept the bell from
Miss Hostetter, for presentation to Dr. Herbert Burk,
rector and founder of the national carillon. The
Miss liurgan
ceremony will close with the playing of the Indiana state song.
At the stroke of every hour from 10 until sunset, strains of religious
and patriotic music will fill the hills with praise for those “who have not
died in vain.” The carillon, which is the first great chime to be made
in America, is in use more than any other in the world, it closes each
day at sunset with the national anthem.
Has Thirteen Bells
The Star-Spangled Banner Na
tional peace chime was dedicated
July 4, 1926, in commemoration of
the 150 years of American independ
ence. It consists of thirteen state
bells, ranging in weight from the
Pennsylvania bell of 3,500 pounds,
to the Delaware bell of 225 pounds.
The national birthday bell weighs
two and a half tons and bears a star
for every state. Names of the states,
in order of admittance to the Union,
form the decorative border of the
bell.
The state bells have been assigned
to the states in the order of the
population and the first bell was
that of Ohio, dedicated April 29,
1928. Money for this bell, which
weighs three tons, was appropriated
by the legislature.
D. A. R. Congress Follows
The second bell was given by the
Kentucky society, D. A. R. The
largest bell, weighing three and a
half tons, was presented by Illinois
on Easter day, 1930.
Ninety-one chapters of the D. A.
R, representing 6,000 members, led
the campaign in Indiana for the
$2,000 fund. Thirty-one groups of
the Children of the American Revo
lution and citizens also contributed
to the fund for an Indiana bell.
The dedication had been planned
conveniently so that D. A. R. mem
bers will reach Washington in time
for the forty-second national con
gress of the D. A. R. in Washington
Monday, April 17. in Constitution
hall.

Taste Runs to High Chapeaus With Wide Shoulder Styles
This is the fifth of a series of daily

BY JULIA BLANSHARD
NEA Service Writer
NEW YORK. April 11.—Hats are
the high tide of the Easter
mode. With the wide shoulders,
your taste either goes high-hat. or
else your interest centers in some
kind of a printed silk, starched
chiffon piqfle or novelty straw sailor.
The high fez. the Schiaparelli cir
cus hat and the pert new pique or
taffeta versions of little forward
tilting berets that look a bit like
Norwegian skiing caps are to be seen
everywhere.
Fels. in the coachman’s mode, are
exceedingly good with tailored suits.
For newness and novelty, and be
cause the glare of coming summer
must be considered, many Easter
hats will sport jaunty brims.
Crowns go in for more originality
and novelty than they have ever
known. And the materials that
make Easter hats comprise every
thing from organdy, chiffon and
horsehair braid to patent leather.
Little velvet flowers make entire
dressy turbans, fituns, cure braid,

Manners and Morals
BY JANE JORDAN
If you are helped by Jane Jordan’s
answer to your letter, write again and say
so. Her interest in your never ends with
the first letter.
Dear Jane Jordan—There is
only one thing that's bothering
me, and that's the correct answer
to the question, “Are free love
relations right or permissible?” I
have been raised by the rigid
standard of “No, no, no.” In ex
plaining sex to me when I was
younger, my
mother told me
it meant nothing
to a woman. I
can't believe
that’s true.
I know it to be
a fact that there
are few’ girls any
more who don't
know all about
everything before
they’re married.
They have had
lots of different
affairs, and when
you talk to them
or know them,
JWr ■ t
Jane Jordan
they do not seem to be bad girls.
They are intelligent, use good
English, and are extremely polite
and well-bred.
I can’t understand things at all.
I'm going around in circles men
tally and it's affecting my whole
system of nerves. I wonder if you
realize how T absolutely torn up one
can get over it. I guess you think
I'm awful, but really I'm not. I
can't see any difference between
myself and other girls, only they
seem to have reached some con
clusion and I haven’t.
I'm telling you, if I continue to
go out with men, some of these
times I am going to forget to stop.
Please- do try to understand all
this mess, and tell me something
to go by. lam 19. MARY.
Answer —Your mother has told
taffeta and a wide variety of silks
are to be seen. And exquisitely fine
felt and velvet make some charm
ing new pieces of headgear.
One of the.newest notes in hats
is the tvay they command respect
for the accessories that go with
them. These gloves, scarfs, purses
follow the hat's lead, in color and
fabric, and make the newest ac
cessory ensembles that will appear
in the Easter parade.
Particularly chic and new is the
silk organdy hat in the new high
sailor type, with gloves and a ruff
to match. The organdy is brown,
with white polka dots striping it.
The high sailor has a brown
faced brim, and brown-stitched
cire satin and stitched ribbon band
it twice, emphasizing the high
crown theme, and making a bow.
The cute little fluffy ruff has
brown ribbon through its center
which pulls the ruff closely about
the neck, in chic manner. The
gloves are the newest double-cuff
gauntlets, with flaring cuffs and
white stitching.

you an obvious untruth, and there
fore has lost prestige in your eyes
as a counsellor and advisor. Her
refusal to face facts has shut her
out of your confidence.
Many of our mothers clung to the
myth that it was lady-like to be
frigid. They were not themselves
frigid, only less honest than we are.
The energy which they prevented
from finding its logical outlet es
caped by more circuitous and less
healthy routes.
The social set-up W’hich denies
you expression to compelling urges
which upset you nervously is not a
good one, but the solution to your
dilemma has not been found. You
do not step in front of a speeding
automobile just because it is on the
w’rpng side of the street. Neither
can you buck the social system,
right or w’rong, without serious risk.
You mention girls who have done
so wuthout acquiring the earmarks
of wickedness. I have known many
such girls intimately, and I agree
with you that their degressions
have not caused them to use bad
English or to forget their breeding
and manners.
In my talks with them I have
discovered something which you
have overlooked. It is this. Their
experiences w’ere disappointing.
They did not yield the hoped for
surcease from longing. An experi
ence undignified by love leaves a
high bred woman feeling soiled. And
if she loves, she yearns for perma
nence.
Denied permanence by her tran
sient partner, she is obliged to up
root her poor heart time after time
until it is sore and bleeding, and
hungrier than ever.
Eventually, if she is lucky, she
finds a man who wants permanence
as much as she does. Now she has
a real predicament. Either she
must lie about what she has done

It sits charmingly atilt the head,
rising in the back, in high-hat man-

Should you choose a black crepe

Rental Libraries Given
Bigger ‘Play' by Women;
Men Buying More Books
Non-Fiction Purchased for Homes; Sinclair
Lewis’ Latest Heroine Is Disliked by
Many Readers.
BY HELEN LINDSAY
THOUGH women patronize libraries to such extent that rental books
now are available in almost every department store and corner drug
store, they seldom buy books for the sheer delight of owning them.
The spirit of thrift, developed in the past years of careful budgeting,
has caused women to regard the purchase of current fiction as a uscl. >
procedure.
‘ What shall Ido with books like that, after I have read them? the
feminine purchaser says, and limits her book buying
to technical books, magazines and gift books.
Men still find a joy in owning books, according to
Miss Mary Alice Hayes’ librarian at Stewart’s, Inc. De
pression days have added a masculine clientele so the
rental libraries, but men still like their own personal
books, with their names in business-like script on the
fly leaf.
Indianapolis women have been influenced largely
in their readings by radio personalities, with the new
book by Edwin C. Hill. “An American Scene." taking
a popular place. There is a desire among feminine
readers to read books that will keep them abreast of
the times.
Norman Thomas. Walter Lippnian, and other
writers on current philosophies and trends gain daily
in popularity.
Sinclair Lewis’ portrayal of “Ann Vickers” has
met with disiike among women readers. Although
the demand for the book still is great, women read it, according to local
authorities, because of Lewis’ power of expression, and not from admira
tion of the versatile heroine:
a a a a a a
Mrs. Jackson's Book In Demand
MARGARET WEYMOUTH JACKSON'S new book, “Sarah Thornton,”
is in constant demand at the rental libraries. Local women read
with pride this production of an Indianapolis author, as they do “Forgive
Us Our Trespasses,” by another Indiana writer. Lloyd Douglas. A former
book by Douglas, The Magnificent Obsession,” held a similar popular
place after it appeared.
“Pageant." by G. B. Lancaster, a family novel which has for its sceno
Tasmania, is read widely by both men and women.
The books of plays, even with the current enthusiasm for Noel
Coward, are not popular. They seem to require too much imagination
for busy readers.
Home magazines, such as McCall's, Ladies' Home Journal, and Vogue,
are awaited anxiously by the feminine public. Within the last, year, a
clever note of sophistication has crept into these magazines, which has
added to their popularity.
With the idea in mind that women do buy books as gifts, and re
membering the feminine inability to pass by a bargain, Stewart’s are
featuring gift packages of two copies of recent fiction, for £9 cents. They
are attractively wrapped in cellophane, so that the bright covers and
titles can be seen without opening the package.

Tiny Lamp Aids Readers
the comfort of the person who loves to read, there is a tiny took
A lamp, which clamps to the pages of the book, shedding a soft light
on the printed page. The lamp comes with tiny adjustable shade in
enamel finish, and is displayed at Lyman Brothers, on the Circle.
The masculine reader who needs the comfort of a pipe with his book
has been considered especially at Lyman Brothers. A pipe rack, of bake
lite, with a place for a pipe for each day of the week is shown there.
Pier cabinets for books and book ends of varying prices, many of
alabaster, with amusing animal or bird figures, may be bought at this
store, also.
