Modernity Must Advance More Before Unchaperoned Parties Will Be Approved ’ BY MARTHA LEE NOW that spring seems to have gotten into full swing the highways and byways are sending out their age-old call to young hearts. In this day when so many young people who a few years ago would have been at leisure are working day in and day out, the week-end appears as an oasis in Ihe desert of routine. Naturally as the working week drags to its close they begin to
plan ways to spend the pleasant reprieve oJ' Saturday afternoon and Sunday. These young working people are an independent and modern crew of delightful pleasure pirates—but not modern enough, or perhaps still sensible enough, to ask for advice when a still, small voice whispers that the party planned isn't from a conventional standpoint, all that it should be. So this column is frequently appealed to as a means of solving some problem of a week-end excursion The problem is usually the same. Chaperons seem- to be the stumbling block—nobody wants them and nobody plans for them until one of the party suddenly awakens to the fact that Mrs. Grundy, ever present, may have a word to say that won’t be so pretty. My advice to all these young people is to remember that a weekend of pleasure, however harmless, unchaperoned, may have consequences that will follow them through life. It isn't that older people lack confidence in young folk, rather that they fear for them and are not able to accustom themselves to the younger generations’ habit of ignoring the hard and fast rules of their own day and age. However urgently the broad highway may call, I urge all young people to take chaperones along when they go on two-day trips.
MARYE and ‘MOM’ tt n ts THEIR LETTERS
BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES May re dear: I’ve a little time to spare while the clothes are soaking so I’ll finish what I wanted to tell you last 'time. It's so nice to have a washing machine. Frank helped lather buy it for me. Well, Marye, Mr. Northrop said that a man from South America must think American girls were just waiting to be made love to because they give the men they go out with so many chances for it. Down there, girls are always chaperoned even after they’re engaged. And he said that they didn’t respect a husband who failed to protect his wife because, with them, a husband always did that. If he didn't mean it he didn't care what outside interests she might have. And no decent man could be like that. So it must look to your friend Pedro as if Alan is either a fool or a skunk. For you can't completely Americanize anyone who has grown up in another country. All this jazz, cocktail drinking and cigaret smoking that most of you young people indulge in must make a foreigner think the American boys and girls have cut loose from all respectability. I’ll grant that individually some of you take steps new and then to correct the impression. No doubt you Marye, have given your friend a better opinion of you -than he’d have of most girls who would accept an invitation from a man they did not know. But you can just be sure that what’s in his mind isn’t flattering to you or your nusband either. Maybe some little remark you may make will put an end to his hesitating to make love to you. For I honestly can’t see how anyone but one of you youngsters yourselves can really believe that you aren’t so bad as you seem. I know I've heard girls say things right here in this house that no girl could have said twenty years ago without giving a false impression. But their boy friends don’t seem to pay any attention to what they say, no matter how shocking it is. You can’t expect a foreigner to be like that, though. And when a woman is toying with the thought of love I guess the man with her isn’t going to be too dumb to know it. Not if he's got the same thing on his own mind. Unspoken thoughts aren’t so rarely read as you might suppose. But even if you don’t mind risking a * scene with this man you might renlember that Alan is deserving of more respect. Sincerest love. MOM.

Believes Women Well Adapted to Hotel Operation llii I nihil I‘rrxst NEW YORK. May 2.—Mrs. E. M. Staffer, who grew tired of her job in a publishing hcuse_eleven years ago and found another w'hich has now placed her in control of a $30,000,000 business, explains how she intends to operate the Staffer hotels. Mrs. Statler believes that the instincts cf the heme maker will bring her success as chairman of the beard of the Hotels Statler Company, which she inherited when her husband died last month. “Women have their limitations,” she said, “but the hotel business, beirt that of making people as much at home as possible, might be called one for which women are peculiarly suited.” The new' director of tiro big hotel chain went to work for the Statler company eleven years ago. “I worked hard,” she said. “I did everything I was supposed to do and asked for more work. We shall all continue to do as Mr. Statler planned.” Last year she married her employer after serving for several years as his executive secretary. During the interview', Mrs. Statler wore a simple black dress and black shoes and stockings. Her only adornments were a diamond ring, pearl necklace and wrist w'atch. She is a quiet, modest weman with a keen eye and cheerful smile.
