Auto and Modern Youth Can Be Mixed Without Danger of Dire Results BY MARTHA LEE AND again the question is raised, “Is the automobile contributing to the delinquency of our- children?” No—and again no. The automobile is not contributing anything to our children. Remember when father mad[e you bring the surrey back to the barn by 10 o’clock at night? And if you didn’t,

remember how he scolded ? Sure you do, and many many fathers are doing the same thing today when their sons take the family automobile. I disagree with the judge who said every boy in the family should have a car. But I don’t agree with the man who says the son should have no car at all. And while we think about it, this whole question concerns the girls of the family, too. The point I want to bring out is that the automobile is so much a part of the family life in America that it should not be considered as a sperarate question at all. Not any more than the Saturday night bath should be a question of paramount importance today. Because really and truly once upon a time it was considered bad form to bathe more than once a week. And that rite had to be consumated on the final day of the week—or else! The automobile today is part and parcel of our every day existence, just like a street car or bus. Youngsters know how to handle a car; many times better than their elders. And every time they get their hands on the steering wheel they don’t speed recklessly with a flask in hands and a flapper in arms. One Thing After Another The buggy problem gave way to the bicycle menace. And now the automobile is disappearing before the airplane anxiety. Twenty years from now you’ll hear, “Mother, I don’t believe Johnny should have the plane more than one or twice a week. Every time he gets it out of the hangar he races to Chicago and St. Louis. And sometimes I suspect he is taking girls with him.” And the final step will be the banning of airplanes from the State universities. “It is believed by the university officials that the presence of airplanes on the campus is not conducive to higher education. Written permission from parents or guardian and the dean of men or women must be obtained before a student can fly an airplane to and from classes.” That paragraph in university catalogs will be the last straw. But it will come, I’m sure. Dear Miss Lee: I am a boy 19 years old and will go to college next September. MV father will not let me drive cars, although we have two. He uses one in his work, and he leaves the other at home for mother. He let me take the car out once, but X had a flat tire and was several hours late in returning. Father said I had told him a story about the puncture and couldn't use the car 8l ? 1 ?hlnlc he is wrong in not letting me have the car. don't you. Miss Lee?^ Yes Bob, I think your father is wrong in not allowing you to use the automobile. I believe if the two of you could agree on a plan of operation of the vehicle, the result would be Satisfactory for both of you. Another solution would be for you to buy a car of your own. Many college boys, and even some in high school, own “junkers.” You can get them for a song and in most cases they satisfy that craving for speed on wheels. Dear Martha Lee: „ . I am going to entertain my Sunday school class at; mv home the first week in July. I wonder if you can advise me on something new for a couple of contests and refreshments. MRS. C. You will pardon me for using the column instead of a personal letter, but it is much faster. For refreshments I suggest iced fruit salad, light sandwiches, iced tea, iced fruit juices or frozen custard with tea wafers. No doubt you can arrange a luncheon menu from the assortment. Unfortunately you didn’t give the ages of the guests. But no matter what their ages, you can use the now popular “Ask Me Another” game. Base the game on the Bible, and make the questions out yourself. If you send me the type of guest? and their ages, I can better advise you on games and contests. Dear Martha Lee: t , , Could you help me get a ,lob somewhere In a beauty parlor? Please understand that X don’t know much about that kind ot work, but would be willing to learn with some pay for my services. I am thinking a whole lot about the future, as I expect to be looking out for mvself in a short time. I will not be hard to teach since X have had a lot of points on this work. Thanking you in advance. CHLOE. Many beauty parlors carry advertisements in the daily news-

ff "MOM" ’--Their Lelbers

Mom. Darling: One thing in life is certain. We’ve got to live while we’re young. And I know I’m not going to be young all my life, no matter how much encouragement I get from the beauty specialists and others who pretend to know the real secrets of eternal youth. They might have kidded Ponce De Leon, but they can’t kid yours truly. So, then, why not get all you can out of life while there is yet life to live? Nobody wants to live simply any more. It might have been a wonderful thrill in your day for the folks to sit around the stuffy parlor to gossip about your neighbor’s daughter, or to work like the dickens in the kitchen baking pies and making cakes that would give Dad indigestion, but we girls of today don’t look at those things like you did. What do we care what the neighbor’s daughter is doing, so long as she’s a good kid; and take it from me, Mom, we girls are just as good as the old-fashioned kind, only we’re not hypocrites. And that word is meant to cover a lot of territory. And as for Alan’s tolerance, he knows my code. I’m a clean fighter, Mom. If it should happen that I meet a ffian I cared for more than I do for Alan, I’d tell Alan first. I don’t believe anything like this will happen, however, though you never know. Today marriage is a highly speculative game, much more than any game you might find in the stock market. At least, there’s some honesty about us youngsters. We don’t promise to love forever, because we ourselves realize we don’t know whether we can live up to such promises. But if it isn’t proper to love more than once, why did nature make us that way? Capable of it, I -mean. I -suppose your answer will be that if I minded my own business and didn’t see any men, I wouldn’t be in danger of falling for anew one. It might be the iceman in that case. Well, suppose you’ll be glad to hear that Florence is leaving for ’’"ne next week. I havn’t said muck about her, because she was going through a crisis. It’s one of those things that not even a fortune teller could explain. I’ll tell you all about it next time. Sweet love, MARYE.
