Woman’s Day
BY ALLENE SUMNER It‘s quite possible to swat a man or woman in the face and get away with it. But just try slapping the face of that same man’s or woman’s child! Nothing so stirs humans to wrath as the smallest offense against a cnild—that is, if it’s their own child; they themselves might not be averse to slapping the face of somebody else’s child. A nurse of little Maria Kulka, a baby of Hungary, found this out to her sorrow lately when she was found guilty of libel in telling her baby charge to “drink this, you little beast!” as she gave;, her her bottle. Sweet Li’l Doggie The really well-groomed woman will never thing of appearing in'public with an unperfumed dog! And if she really knows her style, the dog’s perfume will match her own. And if she’s as chic as she should be both the dog’s and her own perfpme will vary with costume, mood, and time of day and occasion. This is the latest. It comes from anew animal beauty parlor. The proprietor very seriously explains that in this day when women frequent beauty parlors and when most well-dressed women lead or carry dogs, it’s absurd to think that heretofore there has been no place where a dog could get a pedicure and marcel and perfumed bath. * It’s things like this that make one think that perhaps the careers of “the modern women” are right, after all! “Great Big Man!” There is no such’ thing as a modern woman, an equal of man, recognized as an equal by herself, him and everybody else. This seems to be what a lady writing in a current magazine is saying in three pages of disgust because today’s woman pats her man on the back and makes him think he shot a big bear just as her cave sister did thousands of years ago. “Gay Nineties” “Us girls” have walked quite a j spell, one reflects, reading a current magazine article by Arnold Bennett about the woman’s magazine which he edited in 1896. He reminds us that in that day a woman did not smoke, she was forbidden to earn her own living; trailed her skirts in the dust; never paid more than $5 for a hat and sls for a dress; wore cottqn stockings and used no perfume; never used unprintable oaths; never rode alone in a hansom, if she was “respectable”; rode a bicycle; did not want to vote; belonged to no woman’s club; never ate alone in public, and in short, was everything that most of us would prefer passing right out the picture before being!

Man’s Man Makes Better Mate Than Woman s Man
+ BY MARTHA LEE The sheik who has no batting average with his own sex is not the material from which good husbands are made. Men can judge another man better than a woman can. just as women can see straight through the wiles of members of their own sex and judge them far more keenly than can men. There's a fault of character, something not quite il£ht with the woman or girl who has no women friends. Either she’s a selfish type or she has no sense of fair play with,, other women. It’s the same with men. The game of life is played by certain rules. A man is entitled to everything he can win, observing these <ules. If he does not play fairly, men soon know it and he loses their respect. Almost certainly, a man who has no men friends is one who consistently violates or ignores what other men consider simple fair play.
Girls Crazy About Him Dear Martha Lee: tty mother and I disagree so violently over the man T am engaged to that I thought I would ask you what you think about this matter. He is very good looking. All the girls are crazy about him. but the boys don t like him—Just Jealousy, of course. My mother says he thinks entirely top much of himself to ever think very much of me. Now he says he loves me: in tact, that I am the c- ly girl he has eier cared enough about to propose to. If I don t hold on to him. you can bet alipost any or the other girls would gladly have him. My mother says all this and the fact that my boy friends can’t bear him make her uneasy for my happiness it I marry him. What do you thing? GERALDINE L. I’m inclined to agree with your mother very heartily. The young man is almost certainly not a good matrimonial U.‘ Your main activity as his wife wouiJ consist in keeping him from being too much impressed with his women admirers. This would be strenuous, perhaps heart-breaking work, so think twice before marrying this sheik. Has Only ‘Dirty Deals —' Dear Martha Lee: It sure makes me tired how some folks can tell you that things could always be worse than they are and so on I saw a play and the girl in that was always saying something like that. Well, believe me. I am one who knows dirty deals in this world and I have never had anything but kicks and CU l‘ S worked in other folk’s kitchens and did their dirty work that no one else would do and I have never had anything but bad luck and dirty deals. I am 27 vears old and I guess things will Just go on like this until I am an old woman and nobody would have me. I sure feet like I would like to know why foies are born, anyway, when there is nothing for^Umro. Well Kate, your troubles have certainly made on unpleasant dint in your general view of things. Unless you can get a more wholesome, optimistic outlook, I’m afraid yc.u’l find life will continue an unsatisfac - tory proposition. Would you accept the idea my dear, that your expectation of “dirty deals” may help to bring them about? People have a great way of reaching down or up, to our expectations of them. Suppose you experiment and in your next association with folks, make them know you believe them capable of, and expect fair play from them. “Mrs. B. W. P.” is disturbed because a party which she is to give, threatens to be a failure. The hostess’ mother, without consulting her invited a group of relatives “who are very old fashioned and don’t know how to act,” says Mrs. B. W. P. “What shall I do—the party will be ruined?” I can only suggest that you make up your mind that this party will be a whole-hearted, happy affair and not a failure. Real folks, no matter what their degree of polish, aren’t going to be estranged from you because you have some relatives who don’t measure up. They probably have some themselves and will understand. Roast Beef Dinner A roast beef dinner for the benefit of the new S*. Ann’s church at Mars Hill will be given from 11:30 a. m. to 2 p. m. Smday at the church. Mrs. Mart:r. Finnegan is general chairman and Mrs. Henry Herman and Mrs. Bernard Costello are arranging the dinner. Mrs. Nicholas Heiob and a number of assistants have planned the euchre and Mrs. Mary Herbert has charge of lotto and bunco.

Women of These Days Time’s Best BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Fannie Hurst takes a pessimistic view of woman’s new freedom. She says we have become parasites and are worse chattels than our grandmothers were. Miss Hurst is probably suffering from a metropolitan complex. As a matter of fact, the twentieth century woman, with all of her faults, is by far the finest product of lifer sex that the world has even seen. Because she is getting more divorces does not necessarily mean that she is against marriage. It merely indicates that she refuses to live unhappily with a man whom she does not love, and whereas her grandmother may have been equally rebellious at heart, economic conditions forced her to put up with things that today’s wife will not tolerate. But in this maligned America there are standing beside worthy husbands hundreds of thousands of fine, helpful wives, who are bringing all of their intelligence and all of their energy to furthering the ambitions of the men they love. Wives are finer now because when they do stick you know it is because they will and not because they must. Mothers do not have so many children these days, but they seek with infinite patience the knowledge that will enable them to rear better children. Women are not cooking so much food, but they are using more brains in the preparation of the right kind of diets. When you assert that women are worse than they used to be, you merely assert that civilization is going backward. For women are no better and no worse than the rest of the population. There may be many parasitic women in the cities, gold-diggers who live off the gullibility of the men, but these tire far outnumbered by those other city women who carry their share of domestic and public burdens; by those faithful, hard-working wives in the small towns and rural districts wno are just as sensible, just - , s decent and just as loyal as women have ever been. There Is no need to worry about the women; they will alwavs match up pretty well with the men in any country under the sun.

Open Season on Killjoys Never Closes By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON* Once upon a time there was a house party of girls. One of the girls was a wet blanket. No matter wnat the hostess planned for the entertainment of her guests this girl would remark, “The others may do it if they wish, but please count me out.” Tennis, boating, riding—everything the poor hostess attempted, found this girl in a decidedly unreceptive mood. Even dances had no appeal, unless the young man produced for her partner happened to be one someone else wanted. The other girls, better bred, said they “hated to do things without Marjorie.” They had to give up everything the hostess planned. Everybody Unhappy. - The result was that day after day found the porch crowded with listless, unhappy girls, with nothing to do. The dog-in-the-manger young lady was in her element. The truth was that her favorite pastime was spoiling the good times of others. It was seldom she had the opportunity of wet-blanketing so many people at once. On a certain day she was secretly enjoying having left her breakfast untouched. In a fev minutes, no doubt, her hostess would come out, as usual, and apologize for having nothing she cared to eat. She might be persuaded to eat something a little later if she got hungry. The door opened as she expected! Out came the hostess. Our particular friend smiled a gratified little smile. But her mouth soon straightened. Hostess Saved Day. “Girls!” her hostess was saying pleasantly. “I have planned a good many things that seem to have fallen through. I am afraid good manners on the part of most of you is going to spoil your entire visit. “So suppose I take things into my own hands and make each of my suggestions a command. From now on I expect each one of you to do everything I say.” That day the joy-killer packed and left. The edge was off everything for her. The hostess told me of it afterward. She was worried. Had she done the right thing, she wondered? I shook her hand. “There is a time when patience ceases to be a virtue,” I congratulated her. “But ■ it is a gift from heavep to be a good bouncer.” Small Luncheon Mrs. George Long entertained today with a small luncheon in honor of Miss Florence Elizabeth White, whose marriage to Paul Gray of Tampa, Fla., will take place the last of the month.
