U.R The typical American woman who will be honored this Moth er's Day swings a golf club as easily as she clicks a knitting needle. Even grandmother has exchanged her fringed shawl for a casual sports-type outfit. With the conveniences now at her command, mother has time to play a more active role in all phases of living including sports and civic work. This trend to streamlined and diversi fied living is mirrored in the nev Mother's Day cards. De signers and artist have chosen both the casual approach and smart styling as the keynotes of the new greetings, says Mrs. Jeannette Lee, design director of Hallmark Cards. Art work is gayer and more colorful, sub jects are brighter and snappier. New Techniques Even the truly traditional greetings reflect the trend, prov ing that such cards can be both sentimental and stylish. Many new techniques have been used to glamorize the greet ings which will be dispatched by the millions to mothers by May 12. Flecks of gold and traces of silver, rich embossing and glit tering sequins have been used to emphasize the cards eye-appeal. As in the past, floral designs lead in popularity, with such traditional flowers as carnations, roses, pansies, violets, tulips and Mixed bouquets and carrs and baskets laden to overflowing with colorful posies often re produced from full-color photo graphs are depicted on many of the greetings. More Humor Mom's household "tools" aprons, sewing implements, cut lery, etc. also are favorite. de sign themes. But in keeping with the glamorizing trend, such workaday articles are highly styled. Making their debut in the Mother's Day greeting field this year are the new "contempor ary cards, which express a warm wish for the occasion with more than the customary touch of humor. The wife who caters constant ly to her . husband throughout the year should be considerably amused by one new card that de picts a robe-clad dad on its cov er, a tray filled with coffee pot, orange juice and the like in his hands, who proclaims, "So it's Mother's Day . . ." Inside, dad has settled down to enjoy the repast, and the copy continues, "I'll fix my own breakfast. Hap py Mother s Day!"

Selfishness Has No Plaee In Marriagel - Patty is a beautiful bit of whistle-bait, loaded with sex ap peal. Patty has wrapped every male around her finger since kindergarten and she radiates self-confidence and self-satisfaction. Men envy Patty's husband a quiet, self-effacing fellow. George must be the happiest guy in the world to have such a Miss America for a wife. Women envy Patty and fear her, for long-domesticated husbands be come restless when Patty joins the group. Everyone thinks Pat ty must be the perfect marriage partner, outside the kitchen. Everyone but George! George is unhappy, because Patty, like many people apparently loaded with beauty and sex appeal, is entirely self-centered. Her mar riage, without the warmth of giving and the tenderness of sympathy, is a frost.' Self-love has no place in mar riage. The man so wrapped up in his own achievements and de sires that he cannot give of him self to a partner, is a dangerous marriage risk. He will remain forever the oracle which must be worshipped or the matinee idol who must be flattered re assured by attentions above and beyond the line of wifely duty.

Marriage requires both gye-and-take, with the giving and taking shared by both partners. Lit is the most highl.- cooperative enterprise in the world, and like all joint-businesses,- demands pa tience, altruism, and a willing ness to go more than half-way. Husband and wife must be in love, not with themselves but with each other, to succeed. Generosity, sympathy, and consideration these are the marks of a marriage built for lasting happiness.
