PARIS STYLES )By MARY FENTRESS

United Press Staff CorrespondentParis, (U.R> The Moygashel

Irish linens have proved the mostpopular fabrics for the Paris sum¬mer season. They vary in weightand texture from a tweed-likematerial to a sheer voile linen forfilmy evening gowns. Many ofthe linens are uncrushable and allare washable and color fast.The Scotch plaid linens have

been used over and over forsmart, tailored summer suitsworn with dark shirtwaist blouses.The patterns and colors of theplaids follow real Scotch tartans.The Brodie, the MacKen/.ie andthe MacGregor tartans have beenmost popular. Most of there haveas an outstanding color some shadeof purplish blue which is bright¬ened by touches of red.Checked and plaid materials

are used for the tailored clothesand for street wear. Navy bluein a serge weave is crossed withfine white stripes or is used witha cross bar pattern of bright red.Although this weave has the ap¬pearance of serge, the linen is cooland porous. Tweed mixtures oflinen threads are equally smart fortailored summer suits worn withsheer blouses of linen in one ofthe outstanding colors of thetweed.For afternon, there is a new

shantung weave of linen whichhas a raised thread running it.This is used in pastel colors, andthe bluish or mauve shades areselling best. Prints are alwayspopular and one of the most suc¬cessful Moygashel patterns hasbeen a small scroll design in coloron a white background. The voilelinens in pastel shades are used forsummery evening gowns or short-skirted dance frocks.

TODAY S FASHION TIPLinens and other washable ma¬

terials are more popular in Paristhis year than ever before.

"I'm not gonna let no fella put his arm around me till I losemore weight."

Caroline Chatfield Saysdoesn't owe mother the searifiee of her youth

ami if mother is worthy the name she won't aeeeptsueli a sacrifice.DEAR MISS CHATPIELD: %

How much docs a daughter owe her widowed mother? Doesshe owe her the best years of youth? Should the daughter haveto pay bills that were made by a mother who lived steadily beyondher income? Here's my life history. My parents' marriage bustedbecause daddy loved his mother too well. Mother developed adistaste for men because daddy wouldn't put her first. Then shehad a love affair and was about to be married when the man de¬ceived her. Hour after hour she sits and lectures me about thetrouble men cause; how they love their mothers better than theirwives: how they chase skirts and neglect their families. She hasgot me to the point where I am afraid of life.

Every time I b *ing home a friend she ridicules him. tells me he islike the rest, no good, until she poisons my mind against him and I lethim go. Now she has adopted a little boy whose food and clothes andtoys and books must come out of my salary which makes the expensesvery heavy. It begins to look like I am going to spend my life work¬ing to make other people comfortable while I miss love and marriageand all the rest that a girl wants. DEPRESSED.

ANSWER:Measured by any standard, you have done more than your duty

to your mother and. while it may be necessary for you to con¬

tribute to her upport. for a while at least, you should begin im¬mediately to look out for yourself. If she is young and strongenough to adopt a child, she is young and strong enough to sup¬port herself and him. There is no justice in her expecting you tocarry that financial burden. Let her work.

What your mother has done to your bank account can't be remediedbut what she has done to your spirit can be remedied. You are oldenough to think for yourself, wise enough to understand that herunhappy experience has made of her a misanthrope and a cynic. Thendon't let your mind be poisoned against men and marriage. Don'tpermit her to destroy your faith in humanity and blast your hopes forthe future.

)Other women have had marriage disappointments without con¬

cluding that all men are rotters and marriage a sell-out. Allaround you are contented wives who have met their in-law prob¬lems and mastered them; wives who have lived within their in¬come and stayed out of debt. All about you are women who havetaken note of masculine weaknesses, wept over infidelities, for¬

given the transgressing husbands and kept their faith in the in¬tegrity of men as a race.

How much does a daughter owe her widowed mother? That de¬

pends to a great extent on the mother. In any event a daughter owes

her mother a dutiful affection which wouldn't allow the parent to suf¬fer for the necessities of life. She owes a gratitude for what themother has done for her. She does not owe her the sacrifice of her

youth, the enslavement of her mind, the last penny of her salary.And if the mother is worthy of the name she won't accept such .iacri-

fice;. CAROLINE CHATPIELD.
