Love Fades at 22 Says, Marthe Lee By MARTHA LEE In spite of the opinion of Oscar Odd Mclntyre, New York columnist. I like the idea of Will Durant who writes every day for The Indianapolis Times. And in spite of liking Durant’s Ideas, I disagree with him that “Thirty Is the Love Deadline.” I contend that no person, particularly a woman, is capable of true love after she has reached the age of 22. That drops the deadline just eight years. Note that I say TRUE love. There are many other kinds of love. Before a woman is twenty-two years old she falls in love with the man herself, and before a man reaches that age he falls in love with the woman. There is nothing else. In this day most of the social contact comes at night. The fellow puts on his “best,” takes the family automobile, borrows a couple of dollars from his dad, and goes out to see his girl. The girl dons her best bib and tucker, and waits nervously for her date. The fellow is probably a S2O or $25 a week clerk, and the girl loesn’t realize that all he has he owes to his family. She doesn’t think about anything else but the boy, and as a result she falls in love with the boy and not with anything else. He hasn’t anything else. Before long an older man comes along. He has money and a position in the world. The boy is jilted for the other and older man. The older man is more competent to become a husband and father. He does. And the girl spends the rest of her life longing for her childhood sweetheart who offered her true love. After we are twenty-two our eyes are opened. We find out that it is not the first year of married life, but the ninety-nine years that follow. Asa result we look around for a mate who embodies all the virtures ■we believe will make our married life more easy. > We don’t look at the boy himself, ■but at the things surrounding the chap. Has he money? Will he be able to earn money? Has he a family? Will he be a good father for his family? Therefore I say that TRUE love comes only before twenty-two. The love coming after twenty-two is something else, some other kind of love. Perhaps I’m right; perhaps I’m wrong. But give me the liberty to express my opinion. If you will do that, then I’ll do the same for j you. Send me a letter with your opinions. I’ll publish everyone of them with or without your name. Dear Martha Lee: When I was nineteen years old I met a charming fellow who was twenty. We ■were in love with each other for several years. Then before long we started having little quarrels about nothing at all. Usually we made up before he left my house at night. But once we didn’t make up before he left and thing:) never have been the same *lnce. Several weeks ago I met a wonderful fellow. He has a car and money and a well know'n family. He says he loves me. I keep thinking that I still love the first fellow. He is different from this fellow now. He didn’t have much money, but we always had a good time wherever we went. I have Just about made up my mind to marry this second fellow, because I know he will make a good husband and father. I am Just puzzled with myself for not knowing my own mind. RAMONA. If you marry this second fellow you will be happy ,no doubt. You will have everything that a girl desires, a home and friends and children. But way down deep in your heart you will long for the first fellow whom you loved so completely. He always will be before you in your dreams. He will mean happiness to you. Not that you would be happy married to him. Love doesn’t pay the butcher bill and buy milk for the baby. Theater Party Misses Louise and Mary McCarthy entertained with a theater party Thursday evening, in honoi of Miss Loretta A. Derleth, 1302 Comer Ave., whose marriage to C. Francis McCarthy will take place June 6. Among the gueits were Misses Helen F. Doerr, Bertha Pieper, Loretta A. Derleth, Louise and Mary McCarthy, Mesdames Clara Wichmann, C. C.

THE CONNOISSEUR

MARYE and ‘MOM’ * * * THEIR LETTERS
My Dear Marye: I declare you seem to get worse and worse all the time. Perhaps you don’t quite realize how your conduct appears to people who live simply and take marriage seriously. But you surely can't believe that Alan wasn’t justified in being angry with you for that silly spectacle you arranged in Mr. Michello’s studio. It wouldn't have been so bad if you hadn’t let everyone know that both of those men were your admirers. Any woman of my day would have felt heiself degraded to have men fighting over her. And such a thing as flaunting their admiration would have been unthinkable. But it serves them right and I hope they're both disgusted with you that they let you alone. I suspect, however, that you wanted to punish Norman for his interest in Florence and merely used your friend Pedro to do it. It’s too bad, when women can use their wits to play with men and take advantage of them, that chivalry does not permit .men to use their best weapon against them. I heartily recommend wife spanking for the modern genration. Having made three men unhappy you escaped too easily with a mere scolding from your husband. Not one of them would think of plotting against you, as you did against Norman and the other poor victim of your misguided inventiveness. So why shouldn't they be allowed to use their strength to punish you? If Alan wants my consent to paddle you he can have it. But I dare say Alan knows you’d find a way to get even, or rather ahead of him. You’d want the last act as well as the last word. I never knew anyone who could find so many reasons for doing things she shouldn’t do as you do, Marye. Is that one of your modern accomplishments? Well, I hope you don’t change your mind about coming out home this summer because I think you’d better get away from the people you know and take a good look at where you’re heading. I never knew anyone who was going along as heedlessly as you are who did’nt come up against trouble with a grand smash. Some day you’re going to do something that Alan won’t stand for. Then you’ll see that there’s something in life to live for besides thinking up some new kind of a surprise party. With all my love, MOM. * Grated Cheese If you have made a creamed soup that seems to lack something tasty, try adding a tablespoonful of grated cheese just before serving. Mayonnaise can be varied tremendously by adding any cf ’the following: W’hipped cream, grated cheese, peanut butter, horseradish, chili sauce or shredded pineapple.

Disinfectant Water Use a little disinfectant in all the water you clean with. Windows, ceilings, floors, furniture, and especially the bath room should have it. Washing Rugs When washing rugs, do not wring out. Hang on the line and play the hose on them for rinsing. Then leave hanging until dry.
