‘Too Young' for Most of I Life's Jobs, Couples Wed Without Thought of Age , BY MARTHA LEE T)EING “too young” lias kept many capable boys and girls •*-* strugglin'" along carrying copy, running errands, doing chores, or, to use that good old phrase to cover all. cases of extreme youth and meniality, carrying water for the elephant. Boys and girls are most always entirely “too little” to be of any real assistance to mother and father in the main tent, but they are always old enough to know their own minds when it
comes to one of the biggest acts in the whole circus, namely getting married. It seems that that particular stunt suouxU take as much or more well-ordered knowledge of human character, human development, and the problems of grim economics as in any other business. Many mothers and fathers do not seem to think so. They tell us that the fact that children are “in love” will be a sufficient solution to the problem. Love will take care of everything. Love is blind, but it can see, never fear! f They do not see that the things that love is blnia to from 16 to 20, it is wide awake and fighting against at 25 and 30. The do not see apparently that the awards of love at twenty-five will be greater and more desirable than at eighteen, simply because it is older and wiser and will automatically earn a higher wag?. In other words, the boy a girl will marry at the early age, she would laugh at when older, merely because she has had time to grow up and measure up to a higher type boy. Boys and girls who tie themselves to the marriage business at an early age often will be worse off than the boys carrying water to the elephant, yes, I should say very much worse. They will always be too young for the main act in the circus. Dear Miss Lee—l am a sophomcw in college and am in love with a girl in the same class. Although I feel she loves me. I have hestitated to te l her because I feared it might necessitate a frat pin or ring and I feel that we are both too young to be completely tied down. Would it be all right to let her know how much I care for her without doing as I say I feared I would need to? M. M. H. You are right about feeling yourselves tod young to be ‘tied down.’" I don’t believe, however, that it is necessary to talk to the girl as though you were securely in love with her and would never love anyone else. You may let her know you leefings, I think, without leading her to believe that she must expect to put on your frat pin in a day or so. Say nothing about marriage or pins, but talk about future college days together, and the like. It may be that you both will meet others at school or after you leave and the affair in your second year will seem a little foolish. It is evident to me that you are thinking very seriously of her or you would not be worried about pins and engagements so ea f ‘y. But you are wise, ac that. An Answer to Frank G.—i :annot advise you to use that means of getting acquainted. If you ’•ealiy want to get married, you will t,et the chance, never fear, if you < onduct yourself well, keep well grooil ed, act pleasantly. Don’t act in a hurry about it. Any other means of meeting persons through other than our normal social channels is ne’'er advisable. More castles in Spain. Dear Martha Lee: Last February I gave up a fellow who was ideal in every way except for his jealousy. He left for another State in March He said he would wait for me and that his waiting never would change his love. I only laughed and told him I could forget as well as remember. But as time goes on I find I can’t forget, and each day I miss him more. I go with other men hoping to forget him. but they just, bore me. He write; every day and tells me he still i; waiting. But I am afraid of his jealousy. What shall X do? Is there a sure way of forgetting? TROUBLED KATIE. j If you were right when you j made your first decision, then there [ is no reason why you should change it now. If he is a jealous man. then you i should forget him by all means. But j it is impossible for you to forget j when you read a letter from him every day. He can weave a spell around you with his letters. All his objectionable jealousy is omitted from the letters. He presents himself in the best possible light. Time is the only sure remedy for a brokaft heart, and it is a sure means of forgetting. You might write to the man, tell him you arc afraid of his jealousy and that you want to forget him. Tell him all his letters will be returned, and it will be useless for him to write. If after several months you can’t forget him, then admit that you really do love him. A little bit of ego creeps in here. Dear Martha Lee: I am sure you never have had a question like this before. I am 36 years old. and I have a son 21. , I look as young as he does. Persons often think we are brother and sister, but never mother and son. Mv son doesn’t live at home, and he often comes to see me when his step-father is not at home. iHis own father remarried. too. I The neighbors say my son is not my son but some man who comes to see me when mv husband is not at home. Mv husband, onlv laughed when he heard it. but I cried. Should I sue the neighbors for slander or laugh it off as my husband told me to do? SLANDERED MOTHER. Although you are a young woman, your actions are slightly suggestive of those of a child. Suing the neighbors would be the most foolish thing in the world. Your husband has a sense of humor. I like him. Os course, you should treat the affair as a joke. And the next time remember not to listen to back fence gossip and take it seriously. More short skirts. Dear Martha Lee: Your advice on different things is wonderful. The discussion on short skirts and knees shows that most men are more broadminded than women. If some of the voung folks of today and some of the older women wuld get out into the world and work among the public I really believe they would get a little common sense about their dress. I am not an old-fashioned woman, but mv dresses are three inches below mv knee* and I have sleeves on my dress. Golden Wedding Mr. and Mrs. Anthony McGinty, Seymour, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary today at their homer: They have been residents of Seymour thirty years.

MARYE and ‘MOM’ u a m THEIR LETTERS
Marye, Dear:—l suppose I was foolish to feel so upset about your taking a job as a model, since Alan does not mind and since it amuses you so. My feeling I suppose, is this: that if a married woman gives her job of homemaking into another, and goes out to work herself, it ought to be at something important —more important at least than what she is giving up. And just showing clothes all day seems so trivial to me. And I can t help feeling that there are lots of girls in the city, who really need to support themselves, who should have these jobs, rather than two girls such as you and Miss Smith, who are amply provided for and are merely amusing yourselves by working. One hears so much about unemployment and the difficult times girls have earning an honest living in cities that it is easy to understand why they resent this competition from women who do not have to consider wages, and who can, as you say, walk out on a job any time it becomes a bore. if it causes you to appreciate your home more, and makes it possible for yon to welcome a quiet evening, however, I ought to make no objections. And I do not. Tell Alan I am sending a box of preserves, all nicely labeled, for his particular benefit, and that he may do as he likes about sharing them. And I’m going to have more for you later on as the other berries come in season. I have so much time now that I really love to fuss with this sort of thing. • I think you may expect Florence back most any time, since she has about convinced her mother that life here is impossible for her. She wants to have a little apartment of her own, she says, she pan devote herself to the development of her career without the cramping influences of her family. Have you written to her that you are modelling? I have said nothing to her about it. She is such a gossip, here will think it very strange that you are working. It will reflect on Alan. So I think it is best not to start any conjectures. They never would understand your attitude. Are you planning to come home later in the summer? Everyone is anxious to see you and you will disappoint them dreadfully if you don’t—to say nothing of how I shall miss you. Perhaps you would like to be here for the fair week—that will be the first of September. But any timq that will suit you will be splendid for me. Devotedly. MOM.
