DOES A WOMAN LOVE A MAN IF SHE SHUNS HOUSEWORK?

“Pale Hands” Is Told to Wai t for the One Whom She Will Adore Working for and With— Home - Making Is a Wife’s Natural Work, a Way to True Happiness. By Martha Lee Is the American woman spoiled and is the American husband too indulgent? The charge i* often made nowadays.

There’e no question that, with the advent of far more~freedom than was ever hers In the old days, and with countless labor saving devices to make het work easier, woman is having things more or less her own way. Whether she’s happier under this new regime is an open question. Home making is woman’s natural work. Careers, business activities, social engagements may fill many of her hours, but as one partner of a home organization, she cannot be truly happy unless she is fair to the other partner unless she is doing a fair share of the great business of keeping the home machinery bright and shiny. Shuns Housework Dear Martha Lee: I am a young lady and go with a man six years my senior. T am rather blonde and considered very good looking. This man loves me and wants to marry me. I love him also, but sere-t the trouble. If I did marry him, would have to do my own house work. Now. I’m a girl who has never had to do any work. Shall I marry him and have to cobk. wash dishes, etc.? PALE HANDS. Well, be sure and don’t marry him unless you’ve decided that being with him is worth the effort you would have to put forth as a (home maker. Really, Pale Hands, I floubt If the quality of the “love” you have for him would withstand even the slight storms of married life. A woman who loves. Isn’t going to let the thought of washing a few dishes, etc., come first in her thought wheri contemplating marriage. In fact, the woman who has real love, hugs to her heart the thought of sometime concocting the dishes that would please her beloved or creating the atmosphere o£ a real home for him. Fair play is only another name for honesty and it’s certainly a question whether it’s honest for a woman to take the fruits of a man’s labor and" give nothing In return. You want to play fair, don’t you, Pale Hands? Better wait for marriage until you find the man you'd, adore working with and for. Beaus and 16-Year-Olds My Dear Martha: We are two girls 16 years of age and are juniors at Technical High School. We are good-looking and are popular out there among our friends and also at other places. We have been going with two fellows. We like them very much tn many different ways. We are fast with fast fellows and slow with the slow ones. How late should we he out at night on dates, and where should we go? Are barbecues all right? , Is it right for girls to have a little drink and a smoker We want to know these things. Should girls be alow? Do they get farther? We are very interesting gtrls, and full of pep. Is love skin deep? BLUE EYES AND BLONDE. You dear young girls do not know that to fix the word fast to your character is most undesirable. It involves traits of character that oven mature persons cannot afford to have applied to them. | Your description of these boys It ells me that they are not the right kind for 16-year-old girls to associate with. I think 10 o'clock is late enough for school girls to be out at night. Movie shows and young folks’ parties are proper places for you to go. By all means keep a clean record and leave smoking and drinking out. You can never foretell what trouble drinking may cause you. A person who drinks frequently makes a fool of himself. The liquor sold now is responsible for many deaths. You will not lose in the long run by being “slow,” as you call it. That does not mean being a wall flower, but you can be jolly, good companion without diinking and smoking.

Real love is more than skin deep. It lasts throughout the ages, and will go through trials and' disaster for the object of its affections.

The WOMAN’S ; DAY By AHene Sumner 1 Because women are cats, six years of suffrage have permitted them to effect no real changes in law or politics. This is the frank conclusion of a male Journalist who starts his treatise thus: “One day, after being unmercifully ‘razzed’ in the Senate, a certain high official chatted gayly with his critic as the two, arm in arm, descended the steps of the Capitol. Not many blocks distant, there was a gathering of club women. Here one prominent figure was observed to abruptly quit the luncheon table at the approach of an erstwhile critic. That trait constitutes woman’s greatest handicap. To man, censure is impersonal; to woman It is an affront." I happen to be a woman, but I believe the gentleman is absolutely right. And another slam for the tinted sex from another male carper. He says in no mincing terms that American women are positively rotten cooks. The ukase wells from the soul of William Alien White. He says in part—“ The weak spot in American art is the American kitchen. “We spend more money for food per capita than any other people, but the folk-cooking of America is, on the whole, horrible.” • • • Then‘the male carper grows specific and offers this constructive criticism: “The American woman fries and stews where other civilized women broil and roast; she makes ungodly messes that revolt the palate.” There’s not a word of truth lif that statement that the American housewife fries to more excess than women of other countries. I say that loudly and boldly after a threemonths’ diet in eight nations across the seas, where constant platters of fried meats and vegetables made me long mightily for these same "ungodly messes" of the American cook. • • * Much whining about cooks these days! Someone else breaks Into print with this: "The need now is for anew sort of cook —a cook adapted to the apartment, a cook for the professional woman or the wife who has activities outside the home, a cook who has Ideas about a balanced diet.” But there’s some sense in that cry, unlike the one of W. A. White! In spite of more than a decade of stress on the niceties of diet and home management, the bulk of cooks never heard of vltamlnes nor a kitchen time burget!

Faith, flushed with excitment, ran down the weed-grown path to the open, unhinged gate and sprang upon the running board of Bob Hathaway’s car. “Slide over into the driver’s seat and get the engine going!” she commanded Cherry breathlessly. "Pete Gonzales was In that house and refused to come out when h. s mother called him. Bob’s scouting around the back. Pete was probably watching from the window and will make a bolt for It through the front door. If he does —oh, there he Is now! See —dropping out of that window! He’ll jump the ten&e and make a run for IU-Quick! Can you turn the car In this narrow street?" “I can turn on a dime!” Cherry boasted, her eyes glittering with excitement. She swung the car at an almost exact right angle into the road, backed a piece, then, with a great wrench of the wheel with a tiny, frail-looking hand, headed it toward the fleeing figure of a short, thick-set, long-armed man, clad In soiled dark trousers and a frayed old red sweater. He was bare-headed, and he ran like an ape, his bowed legs Incredibly awkward, his abnormally long arms swinging. “There’s Bob!” Faith gasped. “Walt for him.” Hathaway was running fleetly across the vacant lot next to the Gonzales home. Pete Gonzales was a block away, but Cherry threw the car into reverse and backed swiftly toward Bob, who did not lessen his own speed as he ran to meet It. “Good girl!” he panted, as he sprang to the running board. "You keep to the wheel. Cherry. I’U stay here, ready to drop off and tackle the big bum when we catch him. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s got a gun, but there’s one In the pocket of my oar, and I won’t hesitate to flash It on him. Hand it to me, Faith. It’s on your side; just lift up that flap. Don’t be afraid of it,” he laughed tenderly as she drew out the gun gingerly. “Don’t jise it. Bob!” sho begged. "Oh, look; he’s fallen down!” “It’s a ruse,” Bob told her grimly. "So he can get his gun out without being seen doing It. Stop the car, Cherry, quick! Give me that gun, Faith!” Cherry stopped the car almost Vithir. its own length, and about a hundred feet from the huddled figure in the road. Faith, her hands trembling and her eyes agonized, passed the blue, snub-nosed automatic pistol to Bob, who immediately jumped from the running board and ran toward the fallen man. He carried the pistol conspicuously. In extended right hand, so that it must be plainly visible to the man who groveled In the dirt, as If unable to rise. "Stick ’em up, Pete!” Eob’s voice crackled sharply In the chill October air. “I’m not going to use this toy |lf you behave yourself. Just want lo have a little chat with you. Why ; did you run away?” The dust-covered figure withered; ] the head reared slowly, like that of Ia snake about tc* strike; Inch by inch j the hands went up, and out of the ! clenched right one dropped a small automatic. Pete Gonzales was an evil thing to look upon, with his greasy thatch of long, uncombed black hair, his little pig-eyes glinting malevolently at the man who had him cornered. “Aw, dry up aijd blow away!" his hoarse, croaking voice rasped out. “What right you got to come snoopin’ around a guy’s hquse?” Bob Hathaway laughed shortly and stooped to pick up the automatic wh/ch Pete Gonzales had dropped, taking care to keep him covered as he did so. “Stand up, Pete, I’m not going to HAAG’S Cat Price Drugs

If you don’t, I’ll take you into police headquarters and let you explain this gun—concealed weapons, Sullivan law, you know, and a few other little things I can think of.” “Sullivan law yourself,” the other man growled, his evil eyes fixed on the Colt In Bob’s hand. “Oh, no, buddy. I have a permit to carry a pistol. Didn’t know ( I was a deputy prohibition enforcement officer, did you? Now, don’t talk back or get fresh, *but answer my questions. That’s all right, girls.” he called over his shoulder, as he heard Hie approach of a car. “Sit still. This baby won’t give any trouble. And I’ll lie glad to have witnesses to what he’s got to say. Now, first of all, where does that precious slsteb of youra hang out now?” “None of your business,” Pete Gonzales began, but at the prod of Bob’s gun into the pit of his stomach, he answered sullenly, "Got a furnished room at 3518 West Tenth St.” "All right,” Bob Hathaway snapped.

An’ I ain’t equeelin’, see?” "Your sister’s going to be arrested before night, for writing poison pen letters to Miss Lane,” Bob lied without a flicker of an eyelash.

Will Feels at Home

Will Rogers in a cowboy outfit feels more at home than In any other kind of clothes. Though he Is now famous Internationally as a comedian and humorist this keen, level-headed American is the same Will Rogers of old, no more dignified now than he was when he was champion cowpuncher of Oklahoma. During one part of the program, which will be given by Rogers and the De Reszke singers at the new National Guard Armosy, Saturday night, Nov. 21, under vtho auspices of the National Guard, Rogers will don his cowboy outfit and perform the'miraculous tricks which he does with a lariat, talking and chewing gum all the while. Just as he did when he first attracted attention in vaudeville, where he made such a hit that he was engaged as the star of Zlefeld’s Follies, with which he remained for fire years.
