Girl Offers to Sell Self for SI,OOO, While Another ‘Catches’Rich Husband BY MARTHA LEE <<TT7HAT am I bid for this beautiful octoroon wench?’’ VV “Fifty dollars?” “Sold to the gentleman from New Orleans.” And the auctioneer hammered down a young girl to slavery. But that was before Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. * “Edith L. Parker, 36, Des Moines, bookkeeper, today listed herself for sale on the marriage market for SI,OOO. Miss Parker

is a small brunette.” And that, my dears, was a news item run in thousands of newspapers over the United just a few days ago. In 1928, mind you, and not in 1828. Prices are going up. It looks like a hard winter for the buyers. That is not the first instance you have seen where a girl is willing to sell herself in marriage. I can recall several other cases of public sale. And there are buyers for such women. There are men who actually pay cold cash publicly for a wife. The world condemns such an act; people look down on such humans. „ I am not condeming Edith Parker. I don’t even know the girl. Perhaps she was actuated by worthy motives. The world is said to move, figuratively. But does it? Is civilization progressing? We have what is called a White Slave law. Men are punished for secretly selling girls into slavery. We punish the man who does it secretly; but do we punish the man who does it openly? And then there is another, a third angle to the story. “She marries him for his money. She doesn’t love him very much and he is older than she, but he is rich.” That is bridge table conversation. How many times I have heard that Statement.

The world doesn't look down on a woman who figures in such a deal “She made a good catch” says the jworld, and then it forgets. Nor does the man lose social caste. He plays golf just the same and his wife entertains his business partners. “Golly, he certainly has a good looking wife and charming, too,” says the world, and then forgets. There is a moral to this story, some place. But I don’t know where it is or what it is. It is complicated. The world is a gaming table. The poor man just has to win. He shakes the dice; he rolls them; a “two” turns up. He loses; that’s the rule. The rich man plays; a "seven turns to the gaze of onlookers. He wins; that the rule. As the old darky said, “Boss, there just ain’t no justice.” But we must abide by the rules What ever game we are playing, we are guided and judged by the rules of that particular game. We can’t break those rules no matter what we believe or think. Try it some time; see what happens. The mob turns on you and condemns you for your actions. Play the game; play it square. “The dice of God are loaded.” Dear Martha Lee: Strange as it may seem, I am in love with two men. The first man is one of the sweetest men I have known. He is brilliant and clever. But he is as poor as a church mouse. . 1 " la J r y hlm We will have a long uphill pull before we gather together enough money to make ends meet. Vet I know I will be happy with him. The second man is one of the solid business men types. He is a success in the world and he has more than his share of the world’s goods. I could be happy with him, because I Tiever would have to worry about money. He will give me everytihng I want. Os course. I want to marry for love, and I am undecided Just what I should do. Which man should I marry? I have read your column. Miss Lee. for years, and I have read the wonderful advice you have given to others. Perhaps you can tell me what to do. JANUS. You certainly signed the letter correctly. Janus, you know, is the two-faced Roman god who looked both ways at the same time. The month of January is named for him. Too bad you are not twins so you could marry both men. If you marry the poor man, you always will have before you the vision of the wealth you might have had. But if you marry the rich man, you will eat out your heart for the love that is denied you. On the surface those two statements seem correct. But not knowing the personalities of both men, it Is impossible for me to judge. Your heart will have to be your guide. Make up your mind what you want to do, and then put the other man out of your mind and heart forever. Once you have made a decision, stick to it. Play the game, my dear girl and don’t complain if you lose. And don’t boast if you win. Bea sportsman.

The following two letters were received today from readers interested in the story in the column a few ciays ago on knees. It is strange that the married woman upholds knees, while the married man thinks knees are an abomination. Martha, Lee: I for one enjoy good lfnee, ng w^ ee n S ot B °° d lo °^ lng kn a -fength rr drand d e s st" d ar m e y M h* ll *™ on e will start raving about sleeveless dresses next. One is Just about as good an argument as the other. American girls dress to please themJ low> rfi ther than other people. Why be ashamed to show prettv knees? Every one has been showing their knees long enough now ot to be ashamed of them. BABB. Dear Martha Lee: The discussion of short skirts and knees which you recently introduced Interests me very much. I am strongly against the short skirts as they are worn today. And yet I am a young man and married. . But knees, knees, knees are becoming sickening. Every place you go you see knees first. Divine Providence has certainly made a big mistake by creating so many women with ugly legs and knees. It doesn’t matter if a girl or woman has or fat. knotty o: bow legs, she feels that she must follow style and then she wears 'em short. On the street car or bus she pulls and f mils at her skirt to try to cover at least he roll of her stocking. The men are supposed to look at the ads in the top of the car rather than gaze at the bare knees. If he is observed looking, he gets n glance from the victim that spells '’fresh.” The argument that short skirts are healthful is carried entirely too far. The skirt that struck two or three inches below the knee was Just as healthful as these extremes of today, and besides didn’t display the color of the garters. .The sad part of the whole thing is that it seems the women feel they are giving the men a greet treat. If a. survey were te be made. It would be proven that the majority of men would say the women were nothing more than plain little fools. And those men who favor such extreme short skirts are the ones a girl would be

afraid to trust—the ones that make night hiking a popular pastime for automobile rides. Personally, X can not see any good reason to wear the skirts as short as they are being worn today, or as style decrees. I would most certainly like to hear from some of the girls who uphold extremely short skirts. Why do ’;hey wear them that way? What reaction do they think they make upon the men? I hope your column will have several, replies on this subject. And I am here to tell you that ray wife has legs and knees that any girl would be proud to show, yet she is sensible add attractive in her dress and does not favor the extremes. KNEE SICK HUSBAND. What do you think about short skirts?

MARYE and ‘MOM’ m m 9 THEIR LETTERS

Darling Mom: I think I told you about Shirley Wells being in an accident. That bump on the head, I mean. Her father was going to sue Ted because Shirhy claimed she begged him to slow up and he wouldn’t. At first she didn’t want her dad to do anything about it, but as it turned out she had to have an Xray taken and it showed something wrong. She’s been quite sick. So lier father engaged a lawyer. Shirley got a leyier from the company Ted works for, asking her to give them an account of what happened. Shirley didn’t show the letter to anyone, but she answered it and said she had received an injury While driving with Ted when his car hit a rise or some obstruction in the road. She said he was speeding. Well, the next day a man came to see her and said he was from Ted's employers. He showed Shirley a typewritten copy of her letter and asked her to read it. He explained that- he merely wanted to verify it as her story of the accident. Shirley didn’t find any changes in it,-so she signed it on the dotted line. The da* after that, the lawyer her father had engaged asked her to come to his office if she was able. Shirley staggered down town and what do you think he showed her? A typewritten statement over her signature, in which she exonerated Ted from all blame for her accident. The lawyer was furious and wanted to know when and why she had signed such a paper. Shirley was flabbergasted. At first she denied having signed anything but she admitted it was her signature all right. Finally she realized what had happened. The first page and a few lines on the second sheet were taken up with the typewritten copy of the letter she had written to Ted’s employers when they asked her to give her account of the accident. But she had signed the second page near the bottom, leaving plenty of space to be filled in later. As it was all done by typewriter Shirley could not prove that she had signed only part of it. Someone had typed in a lot more that her lawyer said ruined her case entirely. The other side offered to settle for a very small sum and Shirley’s lawyer advised her to take it: It won’t pay for the treatments she must have for several weeks; and it was a lesson about signing in the right place. Lovingly, MARYE.

Club Women Convene in Texas Today BY MADELAINE WILSON United Press Special Correspondent SAN ANTONIO, Texas, May 28. —The nineteetnh biennial convention of the General Federation of Women’s clubs opened here today with approximately 5,000 women from every State in the Union and from several foreign and territorial countries in attendance. Rhode Island delegates came virtually the entire way by water, making port at Galveston. A resolution condemning “wet” candidates for national offices is expected to be introduced early in the convention. Since the federation is strongly non-partisan and has a policy against taking active part in politics, it is not likely any certain candidate will be condemned or approved. The program of the eight departments has been built about this theme, “The Fine Art of Living: Making the Federation Function In Daily Life.” Foreign clubs, better equipped homes and illiteracy surveys are to be emphasized r.t the daily sessions. It was fitting that the club women began their discussions on American home life in “the city of the Alamo.” It was on the present site of San Antonio that the Spaniards established the first settlement in the Southwest. Here the first settlers and two succeeding generations battled both Spaniards and Indians to protect the frail homes they had erected. Conferences of executive committees were held today while incoming delegations were registered and housed. The first general session will be held in the municipal auditorium Tuesday. It will be presided over by Mrs. John Dickunson Sherman, Estes Park, Colo., president. Almost every mode of travel was utilized by the visiting delegations, who represent 40.000 American club women. Many came by automobile. lowa, which has more women’s clubs than any other State, sent its delegation by an automobile caravan. Hoosler Women in Race The election of officers scheduled for June 6 has create*! no little interest. The race for president finds a woman lawyer pitted against a housewife. Mrs. Edward Franklin White. Indianapolis, first vice president of the federation, and a lawyer. is opposed for the presidency by Mrs. John F. Sippel, Baltimore, Md.. whose interests lie in the home. Mrs. Henry C. Taylor. Bloomfield, lowa, and Mrs. William R. Alvord, Detroit, Mich., are candidates for recording secretary. Mrs. Grace Morrison Poole. Brockton. Mass., now recording secretary, is the lone candidate for first vice president. Other unopposed candidates are Mrs. Eugene B. Lawson, Nowata, Okla., for second vice president, and Mrs. H. G. Reynolds. Paducah, Ky., for re-election as treasurer. Halcyon Club The Halycon Club will meet this evening at 8:30 at the home of Miss Rosemary Kelly, 843 W. TwentyNinth St.
