Women May Learn Vote Value First The National League of Women Voters is planning to educate its members in intelligent voting. All over the country ■women are making feeble efforts to understand something about politics. Slowly, but surely the movement is growing. We are at least making a start. A better start, indeed, than the men have since 1775. For after the male has formed his Young Men's Democratic League and similar organizations, he figures he has done everything necessary. The idea of teaching his son intelligent facts aljout politics does not occur to the average father. Tie believes intelligent voting means sticking by the party ticket. When a Republican has voted for a Coolidge, he believes he has exercised not only his rightful privilege, but his brains. Just before election are always cries of how citizens nefelect to vote. But is there much sense in voting if we persist in voting our prejudices instead of our intelligence? England’s idea of not allowing women under 30 to vote is not half bad. Any country would be better off if nobody voted before tfiey were, 30. The intervening years between 21 and 30 might will be used in studying men and principles. What does a stripling of 21 know about the needs of his country? And just because enthusiasts argue that a girl can make her living at 21, is no reason to believe that she is endowed with speciau political knowledge. Os course, the ballot is the individual’s citizenship right, but then the country ought to be considered. Just because everybody can rush out and vote is no reason to expect a L'topia. Experience has demonstrated that the result is far different. There is a great deal to learn about this subject, and the chances are that the women will learn first. And when they do, Heaven help the demagogues. CLUB HAS STUDIO TEA AND MUSIC ALE The studio of Miss Virginia True, 157 E.

lets i Heal me Spare Bedroom!
Mother, that’s the answer to our problem. $5.00 a week means $20.00 a montli toward our rent and household bills. The room is idle now and I would love to fix it up eozily for someone who wants a homelike place to live. Other people do it. There are so many young people who daily come to Indianapolis to work and live and I am certain I can rent it to some refined lady or gentleman. A “Rootn for 110111” ad in the Times will work all day for us, meeting newcomers at bus, train and trolley and Want Ads cost less in The Times, too. I’ll just call Betty Lou. She’s an ad taker at The Times and she will help me write my ad and tell me how to go about it. You Can Charge It!

Low Estimate of Self Almost Assures Failure By Martha Lee ~r~~ |ET a man gel it into his head that lie amounts to nothing, Li and only a miracle can save him from reaching the goal he has sets or himself—noivliere. A lot of folks stand in their own light and knock on their own success, for there’s much truth in the statement lLat whatever we tell ourselves often enough, we finally come to believe.
Overconfidence is, of course, an I undesirable quality, but it's better j than lack of it, and every time a person says to himself, “I’m afraid” or “I just know I can't,” he’s tying another knot around the possibilities ( of his getting ahead. Study the successful man. He’s that, because he’s been looking for success, expected it. " ’ I Lacks Confidence Dear Martha Lee: I wish you could give me some idea ot how I could help my brother to have more confidence in himself. He is 19 and I am 22 and he : depends a good deal upon what I say. lie | is just totting a hold in the business ( world but it troubles me that he does not think much of his chances. He i- somewhat pessimistic and con- | stantly says you can t expect to get ahead unless you have a pull or are lucky. I do t not feel that he is right, but perhaps I don't know. Do you believe in luck and 1 that it is most important ? MADELINE L. R. There are few extremely successful men I car. recall who entirely Ignore the part that luck has at some time played in their affairs, but this explains only a part of their climb of course. “PuU” helps to place folks many times, but it can't put brains where j there aren't any, so the effect of a ! "pull” is not far reaching. Try to Be Happy? Dear Martha Lee: Please tell me what to do. J have been married for ten year and have a little girl tl years old. I did . have a happv home but my husband found a lady that he liked*better than he did me and went with her for a time. I found it out and he has given her up but he docs not seem the same to me and I wonder whether I should continue lo live with him or not. Do yon think for I my baby’s sake I should try and make i things hannv again? HEARTBROKEN WIFE AND MOTHER Certainly nothing would be gained ( by your leaving your husband. Your child will need her father and there ! Is every reason why 5-011 should work to blot out this affair from your memory. As your husband readily gave up the woman, his intentions for the future must be good. So’-enoourage and help him to not fall into such a situation again. If you act aggrieved and unhappy, you may drive him back to her. Folks Dislike Him Dear Martha Lee: I am a girl 19 and I go with a young man who is .31. We love each other dearly but my folks do not like him. I have gone with him for a long time and he has asked me to be his wife. Shall I listen to mv,folks or shall I fJick with him because JHove him? L. R. B. As you mention no particular fault of the young man, I take it that your folks simply do not care for his personality. Their thoughts of him, based on nothing but prejudice, should not weigh in this case. All other things being equal, and If he is able to support you, it would seem there is no good reason, as you love each other, why you should not marry. Which to Choose Dear Martha Lee; I am in my last teen 9 and going with a fellow steady who loves me dearly. X do not care for him in that way at all. but 2do care for another fellow, only ho docs not earc for mo. Now shall 1 go ahead and try to forget I this one I earn for and marry the one that I cares for me? PUZZLED DOROTHY. Certainly do not marry a'man simply because ho cares for you. j That may seem the kind thing to do, ! but it is really very cruel as he would be miserable when ljc realized your indifference. I should think It only fair to explain to him that you simply like him. As for the other one, if it gives you uneasiness to be in his company, having a fondness for him that he does not return try lo keep away from him. Perhaps you can forget him.

— Woman's Editorial — Men Demand Too Much of Their Mates By Mrs. Walter Ferguson In this age of specialization, it is strange what men expect of their wives. The rest of the populace can fit themselves for one certain voea- [ tion and the more ardently they • labor to become efficient in only one line of work, the more generally they are admired. But with the average wife, what do we find? Certainly not such an j easy thing as specializing. The men i expect us to be everything rolled into ] one. Perfect mothers, perfect mistresses, perfect housekeepers, perfect cooks, perfect society women. The economic value of a good mother is inestimable, but how many men are there who do not complain . if they see their wives working at | this important job? When the baby | comes, they don’t get enough atten- | tion. A good cook is a valuable asI set to any husband, tyjt docs he give her any proper credit when she puts i into practice this talent? No. He I expects her to be an equally good I chauffeur. A neat anti economical ' housekeeper costs lots of money l when you arc not married to her, I but does this type of woman get j credit for her skill? Yen’ seldom. I The chances .ire that her husband ! wants her to ho a bridge expert and a good ccoktail mixer. Too Many Jobs | The women of this country are i becoming nervous wrecks, not liecause they work too hard, but because the} - are trying to do too many • things. Their ambitions outstrip j their physical strength. j And not only that, but they are I forever being told that if they do I not keep themselves well groomed and slender and lovely, their husbands and lovers will go scouting after some other woman who is. They are panic stricken becauc l they are making a mistake by not assuming some of the coyness of the professional courtesan so as to hold their husbands, or by not ,'Oing out for social notice, or by failing t to vote in the city elections. What Men Expect We don't do anything well ; because we try so hard to live up j to what the men expect of us, which , is to be paragons of ever}’ virtue and wizards at every job. Jt*s high time that the men wore ! realizing that they can't expect their ' dishwasher and scrubwoman to be , a perfect mistress with the arts of a jDu Barry. We can't have babies and preserve our sylphliko figures. | We cn't look after the children ' properly and stay up all nigffit at ! pcrtles. Wc can’t be A spa si as, Penelopes.
