Mrs. Geren was desperately ill for a considerable : period but recov ered and eventually returned to her. home. .There, with courage and perserverance, she began to make the adjustments necessary for .family life.. Mrs. Geren is in a wheel chair part of. the time but gets around well and does most of her own housework, assisted by the chil dren. She can walk, with assist ance, and sometimes wears braces and sometimes not. . At the time of the recent visit, she was practicing with a cane in the .hope that it would ' give her more freedom than the crutches. In addition to the usual ther apy, Mrs., Geren has. hadr some surgical ..work done - to ' replace and reinforce muscles in her right -arm.-- This r work, she de clares,' has made the difference between a-, useless arm, and one which although hot very strong, is ;. now 'very.: useful and Mrs. Geren runs the house with a re markable degree of efficiency, preparing and serving the meals for the family and keeping the rooms spic and span. The latest addition to the household is a new: automatic electric : dish washer, which is so new that the .two boys and the . girl vie with each other to see who will "do the dishes." f --;' Mr. Geren, who runs a dairy and is now milking 42. cows with the assistance of the boys, has found time this winter to head the .

The Fath silhouette for spring is long-waisted and slim through the torso. Jackets are longer, many of them hip length. Waist lines of both coats arid Jackets are given a lowered look, some times with a " low-slung .- belt, sometimes with giant pockets ex tending; almost to the knees: Typical of the lowered waistline group is a gray silk coat, semi fitted at the waist, with a cuff of the fabric set in at the hip line. The cuff ends in a belt ef fect at the front of the garment. " Notable also is the Fath "walk ing skirt" a skirt cut on sleek lines, but providing freedom for walking with a fabric inset. . At first glance the inset looks like an ordinary pleat But un like the pleat it is not attached to the outer layer of fabric.

BRAID 4 f ; s i I PrincessPlans Flying Visit To Islands London 0J.R) Britain's Prin cess Margaret flies Monday to the West Indies for a month-long royal visit and the first real taste of independence for the 24-year-old sister to the Queen. i The "bachelor" princess has never before been overseas alone. . Margaret has 'toured Europe, suitably accompanied; : gone to South Africa with the entire family of the late George VI: visited Rhodesia with her mother and cut a considerable swath in London's young society set. But her trip to . the British colonies in the New World is the mark of the confidence that Elizabeth II now places In the sense of responsibility and poise of her younger .sister viewed by some as inclined to be somewhat headstrong and carefree. , , That is particularly true ; be cause, her. trip, already - is sur rounded by some controversy. " She goes - to islands - where the question of the color bar is an increasing problem. Bucking ham Palace went to the unusual length of issuing a statement that the - princess v will shake hands with everyone she meets, no matter what color or station. ' The next to last stop on-her trip,-. Jamaica, has just elected a Premier whose platform calls for independence from Britain. : - - Margaret will fly to Tobago in 'the Canopus, an Americanntnade Boeing Stratocruiser - especially fitted for her with a suite in blue and, grey decor and accomoda tions for her party two equer ries, two ladies in waiting; two maids, her male hairdresser and one Scotland Yard detective.
