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 figuraa he has done everything The idea of teaching his son intelligent facts about politics does not occur to the average father. He 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 there are always cries of how citizens neglect 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 they 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 Utopia. Experience has demonstrated that the result is far different. There is a great deal to ■team 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.

LeCsHencthe Spare Bedroom!

Mother, that’s the answer to our problem. $5.00 a week means $20.00 a month toward our rent and household bills. The room is idle now and I would love to fix it up cozily for someone who wants a homelike place to. live. Other people do it. There are so many young people ivlio daily come to Indianapolis to work and live and I am certain I can rent it to some refined lady or gentleman, A “Room for Rent’’ 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 laker 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 EET a man get it into his head that he amounts to nothing, and only a miracle can save him from reaching the goal he has sets or himself—nowhere. A lot of folks stand in their own light and knock on their own success, for there’s much truth in the statement that whatever we tell ourselves often enough, we finally come to believe.

Overconfidence is. of course, an undesirable quality, but it’s better 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. .Lacks Confidence Dear Martha Lee: I wish you could give me some idea of how 1 could help my brother to have more confidence in him9elf. He is 19 and I am 29 and he depends a good deal upon what I say. He is just settinff a hold in the business world but it troubles me that h: does not think much of his chances. He is somewhat pessimistic and constantly says you can t expect to set ahead unless you have a pull or are lucky. I do not feel that he is right, but perhaps I don't know. Do you believe in luck and that it is most important ? t MADELINE L. K i There are few extremely successful men I can recall who entirely ignore the part that luck has at some I time playeS in their affairs, but this explains only a part of their climb, of course. “Pull” helps to place folks many times, but it can’t put brains where there aren’t any, so the effect of a “pull” is not far reaching. Try.to Be Happy? Dear Maltha Lee: Please tell me what to do. I have been married for ten years and have a little girl 6 years old. I did have a happy home but my husband found a lady that he liked better than he did me aud went with her for a time. ej found it out and he has given her up. but he does not seem the same to me and I wonder whether I should continue to live with him or not. Do you think for my baby's sake I should try and make things hanny aarain? 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 you should work to blot out this affair from your memory. As your h'usband readily gave up the woman, his intentions for the future must be good. So encourage 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 Del*- Martha Lee: I am a girl 19 a.nd T go with a young man who is 31. We lovp 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 my folks or shall I stick with him because I love 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 teens and going with a fellow steady who loves me dearly. I do not care for him in that way at all, but 7do care for another fellow, only he does not care for me. Now ehall I go ahead and try to forget this one I care for and marry the one that cares for me? PUZZLED DOROTHY. Certainly do not marry a man simply because he cares for you. That may seem the kind thing to do, but It is really very cruel as he would be miserable when he realized your indifference. I should think it only fair to explain to him that you simply like I 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 to keep away from him. Perhaps you can forget l 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 vocation and the more ardently they labor to become efficient in only one line of work, the more generally they are admired. Rut ( with the average wife, what do we find? Certainly not such an easy thing as specializing. The men 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 attention. A good cook is a valuable asset to any husband, but does he give her any proper credit when she puts into practice this talent? No. He expects her to be an equally good chauffeur. A neat and economical housekeeper costs lots of money when you are not married to her, but does this type of woman get credit for her skill? Very seldom. The chances are that her husband wants her to boa bridge expert and a good ccoktail mixer. Too Many Jobs The women of this country are becoming nervous wrecks, not because they work too hal'd, but because they are trying to do too many things. Their ambitions outstrip their physical strength. And not only that, but they are forever "being told that if they do not keep themselves well groomed and slender and lovely, their husbands and lovers will go scouting after soma other woman who is. They are panic stricken because 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 to vote in the city elections. What Men Expect We don’t do anything very well because we try so hard to live up to what tiie men expect of us. which is to he paragons of every virtue and wizards at every job. It’s hijfii time that the men were realizing that they can t expect their dishwasher and scrubwoman to be a perfect mistress with the arts of a Du Barry. We can’t have babies and preserve our sylphlike figures. We can’t look after the children properly and stay up all night at parties. We can’t be Aspaslas. Penelopes. Cornelias and Pompadours at one and the same time.
