Advising Born Bachelor Against Changing Single Status for Matrimony BY MARTHA LEE WHEN a man marries lias been the start to many a tale of trouble that the satisfied bachelor recounts. In a way, the Bmug bachelor is right; a man finds after he marries that his responsibilities have increased tenfold for he is now the head of the family.

Though 1 believe firmly that most young men and women are happier after they are married, still when I receive a letter

from a true dycd-in-thc wool bachelor, I can uot advise him to forsake his single pleasures and get himself a wife. Unless a man has that real desire for a wife, a family and a home he will be unable to withstand the many little troubles that come with the establishment of a home. He will f.nd himself angry when his xnealc are not served on time because Johnny had a cold and the cook left unexpectedly. He will discover that he has countless nerves that are irritated by his wife’s little mannerisms and by the usual noise of the household. A man of this sort had better remain in his quiet bachelor hall. Here he can run things to suit himself and though he will perhaps fail to satisfy some of the dreams of his youth, he at least will retain his Amiable disposition. Dear Martha Lee: I am a bachelor. 37, end I am beginning to feel that if I ever intend to marry it better be pretty soon. I know a nice girl. 25, and I reallv think she will marry me. Still I know I am not in love with her because I could easily lace the prospect of spending the remainder of my life without seeing her again. The trouble is. Miss Lee. I am content the way X live now. I have my own two rooms and get my meals down at a little restaurant that specializes in 'homecooking.” For companionship I have a roommate and a dog. What do you think I should do? Most people advise the bachelor to marry, but J wonder if it will be the best thing for jne. SINGLE R. Dear Single R: Forget all the many things you have heard about the pleasures of a wife and home, for you are a real bachelor and you would never be happy any other Way than you are now. The mere fact that you are indifferent to this girl now shows you that you certainly do not possess the proper feelings toward her to make her a good husband. Some men and women, too, are' just born “bachelors” and it is just j as futile for them to try to change j their character as it is the color of j their eyes. Be satisfied, my dear man, with i the idyllic life you are leading now.! Do not actually invite trouble by! marrying this girl. Remember, too, j it would be unfair to her. Dear Miss Lee: My sister and I are 1 both workln. We. along with our brothers, | tiro supposed to contribute a certain amount of our salaries to help out at home. I do this every week but she plays off by saying she just had to buy anew dress, hat. or some little extra for herself. Then at the end of month, we all get together and when there are unpaid bill s we chip In to pay them. Now I think this is unfair for if my sister would give her share, there would not be any unpaid bills. What should I do? WORRIED SISTER. Dear Worried Sister: There are selfish girls like your sister and the only way to cure is to beat them at their own game. The best solution for your trouble is to call a family council and make an agreement with your brothers that any one who fails to contribute his or her share every week will be fined for every day that it is late. Tell your sister that she will have to agree to this or else you will refuse to do your part. If she does not pay, see that she pays her fine the next week or else make her get her meals elsewhere. There is no sense of a family's permitting one girl to slip out of all her responsibilities.

BEAUTY HOW and WHY m u TO KEEP IT BOBBED OR LET IT GROW?

BY ANN ALYSIS Not so long ago the great question was “Shall I bob my hair?” Today the bobbed haired sosterhood is wondering whether fashion has really given her mandate that the hair shall be worn long. Such are the compensations of time. The obstructionists and stand-patters have hardly ceased wailing about the sinfulness of cutting off the long tresses, when fashion apparently swings to the opposite side. Her decree will be obeyed reluctantly. Women have grown accustomed to the trimness, cleanliness, and beauty of the bob. Fear of its disarrangement is always present when the hair is worn long, whereas the passing of a small comb a few times through the bobbed locks set the mind at ease once and for all on that point. The bob belongs to the simple and somewhat hoydenish dress of our period. With the more formal and bedraped styles, another type of hairdressing probably will come into being. Chapter Birthday Mrs. S. B. Prater, 966 N. Gray St., and Miss Ida M. Curry were hostesses for the birthday luncheon of the Arabian chapter of the International Travel and Study Club today at Mrs. Prater’s home. The chapter is a year old today.

On the train to Montreal the Connoisseur is very lonely, So he plays a game of solitaire for recreation only, But he looks around most eagerly to see what he can see— If perchance there is a lady who is lonely too, as he.

Clubs Plan Aid for Rural Girls in City Positions

The rural girl who comes to the big city to seek business success will no longer come unsupervised and unknown if the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs has its way. No longer will she timidly dismount from her train, timidly seek from the nearest bystander information as to where she may secure lodgings. Under the direction of the national education chairman. Miss Hester Smith, Denver. Colo, the 866 clubs this year are making a study of the social and economic background of the rural girl. Incident to this study, the federation will recommend to rural school girls the type of educational training they should have if they are to enter business life in their own communities. If the rural girl intends to seek employment in the city her neighbor clubs will provide her with complete information concerning conditions she will have to meet and the cost and standards of living in the city which she selects for her debut in the business world. Not only will they do this, but when the plan has been worked out in its entirety federated clubs in all parts of the country will help the rural girl to obtain urban employment. Already the federation is exercising this type of supervision over young girls in high and grammar schools who are to enter business. Older business women in the business and professional women's clubs advise with them in matters of vocational guidance often help them to obtain positions, and in many instances finance tbeir final years in secondary school if the pinch of poverty might otherwise force them to forego an education.

Woman s Day By ALLENE SUMNER "Why,” asks the man at the next desk, "isn’t there a letter form like •Dear Sir’ which could be used when writing to either a man or woman? i It’s needed. We don’t always know whether the head of a certain department to whom we are writing is a man or woman.” Sure enough, why isn’t there? The old "Dear Sir” once included every one to whom a business letter was written. But it certainly does not any more. "Dear Sir” itself and all the other graceful gallantries of accepted letter forms are only a tradition—a hangover from the age of gallantry when gentlemen wore plumes and lovely women were dueled for. B B B Her Cigarets Maude Royden’s cigarets didn't scare everybody, for her lecture manager announces 400 proffered j engagements that he had to turn down for her. Miss Royden can thank the good women who objected to her smoking for that. They gave, her “just wonderful” publicity. This really is a problem—not Miss Royden’s smoking, but that honest protest always redounds to the good of the person or institution protested. BBC They Pounce Whenever a woman questions the traditional role of wife and mother assigned all women, those w'ho have accepted the traditional role without question always pounce upon the questioner with words to the effect that she is talking to cover up her conscience for her own refusal to accept responsibility. Mrs. Bertrand Russell, whose beliefs are expressed in her book called "The Right to Be Happy,” has received many such onslaughts. Her enemies may be little upset to learn that Mrs. Russell manages a school which cares for twenty children to whom she is actual mother and housekeeper. But whereas her routine is the very thing she deplores in other women her objective is different and carries her over the routine. She runs the school "in the hope of creating a few happy and harmonious individuals.” Maybe mothers hope for that, too, only they’re not so articulate.

MARYE and ‘MOM’ St St St THEIR LETTERS

BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES Darling: Mom, I'm ashamed of you. If j you wore your arguments around I your neck, as they say about men’s garters, you would be disgraced. Not' because they're soiled from old age.' like the garters, but because they’re j so full of holes. Is it necessary for me to point! out to you that there always has been an older and a younger gener- j ation no matter how young women! were when their children were born? j If every one would simply realize j that the world's refily going on spinning on its axL, even after we are all dead and gone it would save a lot of fussing. Honestly now, Mom, you don't think your great grandmother approved any more of the length of your skirt than you do of mine, do you? People don't like change, that’s the plain truth. If a thing’s j been done before and long enough it is all right. Can you imagine anyone howling about a woman smoking in Turkey? When I hear a man violently assert that he hates to see a woman smoke 'I don't because I don't like it) I can't help wondering how tobacco can be any different when he uses it or when a woman does. If it’s harmful or wicked for her it's harmful or wicked for him. And as far as the moral side of it is concerned —if there is a moral side—l can't see anything sinful in a person puffing on a little rolled-up stuff that grew right out of the ground the same as the lettuce or tomatoes which we eat. It’s my opinion that smoking got off to a bad start among the women in this country because the wrong kind took it up first. Os course I don't mean the society women you j speak of. They learned the habit j long ago in foreign countries. But it's astonishing that even some ] women who have been abroad still i frowm upon smoking. I know one j woman who says it’s degrading. And yet she will drink a cocktail! If either is degrading it certainly is the cocktail, for I've never seen any- j one intoxicated on cigarets, but oh j boy, what gin mixed with orange Juice can do to a fellow! Anyway w'hether a man likes it or not he has no right to dictate what women shall do. Some of the dear boys actually appear to be still suffering under the delusion that they are our masters. It makes me hot when a big he-man comes right out and appoints himself our censor. Some day I’m going to retaliate by reading a list of do's and don'ts for men only. And my first “don't” will be, “don’t dictate to women.’* Still in love with you, MARYE. Celebrate Golden Wedding Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin F. Bock, near Burlington, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary today with a dinner for their children and grandchildren. They were married about 8 miles from their present home.
