Subsidized Marriages Suggested
Let Parents of Wedded College Couples Pay Bills. BY GRETTA PALMER Times Special Writer NEW YORK, May 26.—The Vassar girls will be allowed to marry and to continue their college careers, according to an announcement by Miss Eleanor Dodge, warden of the college. This puts the daisy chain hoisters ahead of their neighbors at West Point and raises a number of
delicate questions. The students, accor ding to Miss Dodge, will continue to live in the campus dormitories. Will they still be required to check in at 10 at night? And what provisions will be made for the girl who, married in her freshman year, has several children scampering at her heels
Miss Palmer
while she is going to lectures on senior chemistry? Will there be one law for the brides and one for the spinsters, or will a students’ committee punish a girl for going riding unchaperoned, with her own husband? Thank heaven, we are not in Miss Dodge's shoes! “How is it going to work from the psychologist's point of view?” I asked Dr. Walter Beran Wolfe, the New York physician and author of “How to Be Happy Though Human." “I approve of it as a step toward making early marriages possible,” he said. “And in its recognition of the fact that nowadays a young couple requires some subsidizing, either by the family or the state. Cites Economic Situation “Under our present economic setup the average man and woman must delay marriage until 35 or so or make*a serious compromise with their standards of living. Presumably, under our prevailing code, they live celibately during the years until then. “A celibate man or woman who marries at 35 or older is not often going to make a successful mate. And yet to offend the moral code while they are waiting for economic independence is apt to get men and women into practical difficulties. “Let our colllege undergraduates get married, and let their fathers pay the bills until they can afford independence. I highly approve of the Samoan family system, in which the grandfather supports all his children and grandchildren until he dies. “But the allowance after marriage, mind you, must be given and accepted as the young people’s right, not as charity. And they should not be asked to spend their family vacations or the post-graduate life in the family’s home. No house was ever big enough to hold two generations. Let the parents set the young couple up in housekeeping for themselves.” Problem Presented We hope, with Dr. Wolfe, that the bursar's office continues to address tuition bills to the father of the bride and not to the poor groom, whose allowance probably will be strained by the costs of gasoline between his own college and the bride’s. And. yet there are a great many young persons who are in love and whose parents can not afford the expensive process of subsidizing which this psychiatrist suggests.
A Woman s Viewpoint
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON I AM weary to the point of complete collapse over newspaper stories which read like this: “The police made the first raids under their new orders Tuesday gathering in twenty-seven Women at alleged houses of ill repute.” This has been the accepted version for more years than I have lived and it’s high time we changed it. Arresting women in houses of ill repute is not news, as any discriminating reporter should know. Arresting men there—now, that would be something, far more startling indeed than the rare man among us who is said to go about biting dogs. Any editor would be justified in getting out an extra on that. It makes no difference what opinion you may hold on the subject of prostitution, plain justice and ordinary common sense make it apparent that the moment it becomes illegal for the woman to sell her body it should be illegal for the man to buy it. Exactly the same unfairness .was embodied in the prohibition law, which jailed the vendor and allowed the purchaser to go unpunished; and we know how ignobly it failed. All such measures must inevitably fail because they flour every principle of justice. Nature and men and women being what they are, it’s stupid of use to pass laws about appetites at all. But to persecute one party to the crime and permit the other to go scot free certainly breeds its own peculiar kind of unsocial behavior, a kind which is bound to create more evils to follow. We may as well be reconciled to one immutable fact: So long as men are willing to pay for love, they can always find women who are willing to take their money. Nor all the mandates ever written by the pens of legislators will stop the at We put up with a great many nuisances in this country, but I am convinced the geratest we endure Is the nuisance of a law and a police which are constantly making high dives into the underworld and coming up with a few pitiful, bedraggled women or half a dozen crap-shooting Negroes,
Girls I Pick for Beauty

FRECKLLES—Ernestine Anderson (right), “Vanities” beauty, a beautiful red-head bothered by freckles and sun-burn, has the ideal summer treatment for fairskinned beauties.
BY EARL CARROLL World famous aufhoritv on feminine Beauty, who brings his “Vanities’’ girls to the screen for the first time is Paramount's “Murder at the Vanities,” now at the Circle theater. CHAPTER VI I HAVE said, elsewhere in this series, that the girls in my “Vanities” are not all the “most beautiful girls in the world,” but instead, the most beautiful showgirls. I have tried to point out that not all of them were supremely beautiful when they came to us. Some had slight defects which were corrected. Some increased natural beauty by make-up tricks. But they were beautiful. One thing we strictly avoid is artificiality. Too much makeup, too many dyes, affected styles and the like do not enhance beauty, they detract from it. We strive to keep all of our girls as natural as passible. We merely try to bring out their best points. One trouble that I found with most Hollywood women was a tendency to over-artificialize their beauty. When I took eleven of my showgirls to Paramount for the filmization of my “Murder at the. Vanities” I saw many women whom. I believed, would be much more beautiful if they did. not overdo their makeup. Do not think that I am against all makeup. I am not* but it can be overdone. a a a IN the “Vanities” in New York, we have a staff of expert beauticians who are available at all times for our girls. There are hairdressers, massagers, makeup experts, manicurists, dietitians, costume designers, doctors, and others whose sole duty it is to keep our girls in perfect condition. In this series I have tried to show that each of our girls, an outstanding beauty to begin with, has improved, or preserved, her beauty through simple, healthful measures that any woman can follow. The world is filled with beautiful women. But many—too many—of them permit their

beauty to fade, without making any effort to preserve it. a a a WE strive to find the best weight, the best hairdress. the best makeup, the best costume design for each of our girls, and to present her on the streets, in a home, in public, in such a manner that she instantly will be recognized as an Earl Carroll girl—so beautiful that she could not be mistaken. Any woman can make herself beautiful. Not as lovely, perhaps as the girls in the “Vanities,” or possibly even more lovely. But it is work, and care must be taken of one’s self. I have tried to show that a girl who is merely beautiful —and that in itself is not enough—can be made outstandingly attractive by bringing out some particular fea-ture-hair, eyes, figure, walk—that makes her stand out from a group. Beauty, in my mind, is that which delights the eye. The woman who strives to bring out the most beauty in her best points, rather than lamenting that she is not perfect, can easily make herself immeasureably more attractive. as some of the girls in the “Vanities” have done. THE END.
Contract Bridge
BY W. E. M’KENNEY’ Secretary American Bridge League YES, today’s hand was rather tricky, but I hope you did not lose too much sleep over it. The one thing that I want my readers to remember always is that contract is still just a game. To the young folk, T will say—don't let it interfere with business. And to the older folk —don’t let it be a medium of quarrels. Rather—to every one—let it be the means of many hours of enjoyable pastime. West’s opening lead was the four of spades. Were you careless, and did you play a small spade from dummy? If so, I am afraid that you’d be in trouble. You must make at least three

spade tricks to get your contract, and you have only one re-entry in dummy, so the thing you must do is to go right up with the ace in dummy, even though it does catch your singleton king. You should return your jack of spades immediately and discard a club. West should refuse to win the first spade, and then, when North continues with the ten of spades, East echoes in hearts and West wins with the queen. He leads the ten of hearts. Declarer plays low from dummy and East allows the trick to ride. South wins the trick with the queen. a u b DECLARER now tries for a break in diamonds by leading the ace and king of diamonds, but the drop of the queen by West warns him that the diamond suit will not break. Declarer now leads the five of hearts, and when West plays the six, declarer wins the trick with the ace and East plays the nine.. West, when he originally led a heart, had played the ten (apparently the top of that suit) to his partner, and the six marks him out of hearts. So the only chance the declarer has of making his contract is to find West with nothing but clubs and spades. It is immaterial where the king of clubs is. So the declarer cashes the nine of spades in dummy and then leads the seven of spades, throwing West in with the eight. West is forced to lead a club, which allows the declarer to win with the queen and ace of clubs. He loses the last two tricks, but makes his contract of three no trump.
