As We Live By ELIZABETH HUSLOCK, PH.D. Cruelty To Elderly People Should Not Be Tolerated There are many people today who have little respect for those who are getting along in years. There are others, fortun ately fewer in number, who seem to delight in making eld erly people feel unwanted. (Q) "Two years ago, my father died and left my mother alone with a Dr. Hezlock small sum of money. She could have lived on ii but her health was poor so I asked my husband if he would object io her com ing to live with us. My mother fold me she would turn over everything Dad left her and let me have her furniture and house hold things io use or sell in re turn for my giving her a home. "My husband consented gladly to this because he was pressed for money at the lime and was glad to have the extra money from my mother. Now he has used up most of that money to buy a car and he is very nasty to my mother. He says and does' things to make her feel un wanted. She is very sensitive about this and wants me to try to put her in a .home but I have refused. "I think my husband is being veiy unfair to her and very cruel. I have told him this 'and it is causing a lot of arguments. I don't want to break up our marriage because we have two small children, but I don't want to be unfair to my mother." B. R. (A) If your husband won't listen to reason when you point out to him how unfair he is be ing to your mother, then take this problem to your minister, explain what your husband has done with your mother's money and how he is now treating her. Perhaps your minister can make him realize how unfair he is., I trust that you have kept some evidence of the amount of money your mother turned over to you and a list of the house hold articles you have from her that you are using or have sold. This can be used as a weapon over your husband's head if such a weapon is ever needed to make him treat -your mother as he should. He had no right to use the money she gave you for a car and other personal things. He must be made to realize that he owes her a home and support whether he likes it or not, as he has taken her money and used it for himself. Be sure your minister empha sizes this when he talks to your husband. (Copyright 1955, General Features Corp.)

Tuesday, December 27, 1955 Skirts To Be Say Clothing By ELIZABETH TOOMEY j United Press Correspondent ! New York OJ.R) The future looks interesting indeed. Men now can look ahead with opti mism, if not outright eagerness. The things women are going to wear in the year 2000 are worth waiting for. Twelve well known and reliable designers have made up samples of the clothes they predict will be pop ular at the turn of the next cen tury. In a word Wow! Mollie Parnis, who designs clothes for Mrs. Dwight Eisen hower, predicts women will wear thigh-high skirts for casual occasions. Oleg Cassini, who designs only things with skirts now, predicts they'll be out of date in 2000. So will high-heeled shoes, Cas sini says. Women will wear skin tight trousers and antennas on their hats. Bosoms Almost Bare Maurice Rentner, a conserva tive, white-haired veteran in the designing world, says bosoms will be almost bare and the rest of a woman's body will be cov ered with a minimum of fabric: The clothes will be designed to be shown to television audi ences .on New Year's day on "Wide Wide World" over NBC TV. A few of the . original sketches had to be modified to meet the network's rules on how much can be revealed to family audiences. The show will be filmed live from Palm Beach, Fla., fortu nately, since a girl could catch pneumonia in those outfits north of the Mason-Dixon line. "Temperatures will be con trolled by filtering the sun's rays so warmth in clothing will be less important," Vincent Monte Sano said. He designed a coat of clear plastic for futuris tic wear The plastic is a new Du Pont product called "Mira cle Milor," which is no thicker than cellophane but as durable as stainless steel. Rentner's cocktail costume for the young woman of 2000 con sists of a brief necklace bras siere of blue satin, a slinky satin skirt slit to the hips on both sides and a coin-studded cape of silk organza which flutters from the back of the necklace bras siere strap. Cassini created a one-piece jersey suit that looks a little like a ballet dancer's leotard, except for the wires encircling the bo soms and the radio telephone attached to the belt buckle and the earphones and antenna at tached to the hood. Skirts Must Go "The suit will be tempera' ture-controlled," Cassini ex plained. "There is a battery un der the bosom which controls the warmth needed. The bosom wires receive a slight vibration trom the battery and have a Set of Seven Brighten household chores with these cute motifs!

And women will get so much taller from all the fresh air and exercise that they'll stop wearing high heels." Ben Reig designed a dinner ensemble that consists of pink mesh ' stockings studded with black sequins, a pink marqui sette skirt split to the waist in four panels to show the sequin studded shorts beneath, and a long - sleeved pink marquisette bodice. There's one for the men, too. MacGregor Sportswear predicts men will wear one-piece sports suits, knee-length and closed with magnetic clasps no but tons, zippers or pins. But nobody will be looking at the men.
