Parents Hurt by Tyranny of Children Two Plays on Broadway Portray Two Types of Problem. BY HELEN WELSHIMER NE.A Service Staff Writ** THE problem child is doing her stunt for Broadway audiences these nights. “Her” stunt, we say, for the two plays wnich dramatize the attempt of i\ child to make others play the game her way are girls. Small boys, being less mtro- < pective as a rule, aren't so inter-

e ted or involved in the affairs cf their elders. The two problem girls are not ilike. One is ar. sensitive as the is insensitive and cruel. On-* is artistic, loyal and suffering. The other is a brat, an imp of Satan from which there can come no good and who should have been fettered

with corrective weights before she cut v rr wishing teeth. “Birthday” is the English play portraving an adolescent daughter torn by emotion because she object to her widowed mother's marriaee to a gallantly fine and unselfish man. The girl treasures a false memory of her mother’s romance with her dead father, and borders on suicide. Fortunately the marriage had been performed before the mother learned what an unnatural state she had fostered in her daughter through desire to shield the cl . .. The mother's duty to the child, you ask? To marry the man! To give the girl a father’s companionship and to make her realize that no life cart completely possess another that has any qualities worth p<r essing. The w orld in which we live has never been described as an Heavenly annex. We have to make adjustments. And we'll do it more easily if we do it honestly. Honesty Lacking Had the mother let her daughter know from the beginning that her idealized father had a synthetic conception of love, the girl would have been prepared for a normal sequence of events. For that matter, so long as her mother’s happiness was being increased through Sthe second marriage, the adolescent daughter should have danced at the wedding. She would have—had she been treated with honesty. A mother is a woman, a father is ft man. before donning the robes of parenthood. There k no more reason why a child should clutter and bind a parent's life than there is for a parent to put a restricting hand on the child's life, so long as the new experience is honest and honorable and bodes good. If it doesn't, that is something apart from this discussion. Specializes in Lies The second play, “The Children’s Hour.” presents a problem that is distinctly different. Here we have a boarding school child. Satan's favorite daughter, well instructed in his arts, determined to get her own way, even if it means inventing lies that break lives, twist souls, and work upheaval that will not come out all right in the last act no matter how it is prolonged. The unnatural relation of which she accusses two young teachers is a theme of its own. It is the child's vicious framework of lies that is our problem. Children do not have a background of comparative experiences against which to lorm judgments. Not having lived long enough to live fully, not being emotionally or mentally adult, how can they know which action is best? A guardian's duty is to train children for clear thinking, honest living, and respect for the decisions of those iii command, so long as they are wise and worthy decisions.

BEGIN HERE TODAY Ann Hoi.iater break* her engagement i to Tonv Mickle the same Uay tr.at Peter Kendall II tells Valeria Bennett, his fiancee, that everything is over fcetween them Ann think* she still loves Tony and Peter believes he stlU cares lor Va eria, but when chance brings the two togetner and Peter asks Ann to marry him she agrees. . . They go to Florida and are h*PP7 there Then Peter is recalled home. His famuy snubs Ann and Valeria tries to mane trouble between Ann and Peter. Sn* succeeds finally and Ann goes away, leaving no trace of her whereabouts. Peter, in love with her by this time, grows lonelier as the weeks pass. His efforts to locate Ann are fruitless. . She has found work as governess in the home of Mrs Tracy, an artist. Allan Vincent. Mrs Tracy's brother. Is attentive to Ann. , . Valeria, scheming to w.n Peter back. pe-suads him to hire Ailan Vincent to decorate the home bought for Ann. One night Ann goes with Al.an to see anew home he is decorating. She learns the hoi.se belongs to Peter and remain* out of sight wmle vl.an ta.ics with Peter ar.s Valeria. . . Drlvin* home, Peter takes Valeria In his arms. NOW GO C. v WITH IHE STORY PETER raised his head. He had kissed Valeria and found her kiss dust and ashes against his mouth. He said “Sorry, Val, for being a damn fool.” He started the car and drove recklessly, blindly, while Valeria felt the tide of humiliation wash over her. Peter had kissed her and then had turned away. He didn't want her kisses. If Peter had seen her eyes then he could not have missed tk’ dangerous glow. i- er left her at the door. Valer. did not urge him to come inside. She wanted him to go. Peter went to Allan Vincent next morning, offering to settle the whole transaction for whatever the decorator thought the completed job would have been worth. “I realize this is queer business,” Peter said, “but I don't want to go ahead. Neither do I want you to lose by it.” “He’s quarreled with his girl,” Allan decided. Allan spent the rest Df the morning straightening out what he called the “mess.” Luckily, nothing had been sent out. It was principally a matter of cancelling orders. He came home early in the afternoon, shut himself in his studio and began working on plans for another house. This, too, was a “honeymoon house,” as Allan termed it with disgust. Perhaps this romance, also, w-ould blow up before many months had passed. Love! Rot. As the afternoon wore on, Allan became conscious that the house seemed unusually quiet. Gena ally about this time, he could look out and see Ann and the chilQicn engaged In some form of activity. The sandbox dotted with bright buckets v.as within range of his vision. Almost any day he could step to the window and watch a race or a golf game with the miniattire equipment he had given Sonny last Christmas. Sometimes Ann would be sitting on the green bench under the three with the children beside her. She was so young, so eager and So utterly desirable. Today, the trio was not to be seen Probably Lois had had one of her spells of emotionalism, when she repented of neglecting her children and was now playing indulgent mother with a vengeance. a a a HE heard the car or. the drive just then and a moment later the children racing through the house. There was a knock on the door. “Allan!” “Come in.” Mrs. Tracy stood in the doorway, a worried look on her face. Sissy came, climbing into has arms. “Ann's gone,” Sissy said. Allan said nothing. “Deliver me from temperamental persons. Allan!” Mrs. Tracy said petulantly. “At least from all temperamental persons except myself.” “Great heavens. Can't you get to the point?” “Ann gave up her job this morning, and asked me to drive her to

I’m in love with her, if that's what you mean.” “You’re in love, with Ann?” “Why not ’ “I'm only surprised. You told her?” “About a week ago. I think I fell in love with her the first time I saw her.” He was sure he had. He had wanted to touch Ann’s hair, her lovely, clear skin. “I'm afraid the artist fell in love,” Mrs. Tracy said slowly. “We artists love differently—and not constantly, Allan.” “If I had Ann I could get back my faith in things.” “I’m afraid there’s no hope.” “Go ahead.” “I think she’s married.” “Married?” “Yes. I went to her door one night and opened it without knocking. She was sitting on the bed turning a little ring, a platinum wedding band, in her hand. When; she saw me she closed her hand over it.” He gave a short, derisive laugh. “Married! Not such an innocent as I thought!” After a moment he asked, “Where is she now?” “I left her at a place called the Evans House quite inexpensive. She said she would stay there until she decides what to do. Don’t bother her right now. She’s terribly upset about something.” “1 have a little pride. She didn’t even say good-by.” “She didn’t want to go by your office.”

Contract Bridge

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KiIWEY Secretary American Uridge League 'T'WENTY-FOUR of the finest bridge teams in North America recently met in New York in the national championship tournament of the American Bridge League. The team-of-four event is one type of competition in which the element of luck is practically eliminated. Two members of a team play the North-South hands, while the remaining two members play the East-West hands at another table. Here is a hand in which one team of experts made doubled game con-

John Rail, one of the most brilliant of the younger experts, made a splendid showing in this year’s tournament. Mr. Rau and his partner, Charles Lochridge, made their four heart contract on this hand without difficulty, losing only two spade tricks and one club trick, a a a 17' AST can hardly be blamed for his douL T ? considering his partner’s bidd ; g, and West was well satisfied u til the freak distribution liecame apparent. the other two members of ftau’s team, Fred D. Kaplan, New ’o'-t ar.d Samuel Katz, Newark, N J. played the East-West hands, they went to five diamonds over South’s four heart bid and North doubled. South was the leader against the five-diamond contract and opened with the six of spades. East won with the ace and led a diamond, which was won by North with the ace. North now switched to a club, Ease went up with his ace and then cleared tne trump suit. East now lee the spade eight and won the trick in dummy with the king. He then led the queen of spades and discarded his singleton heart. East conceded one club trick and thus made his contract of five diamonds, doubled. Os course, the contract could have bien defeated with a heart opening and an immediate switch to clubs by North. But the defense is ha r d to figure from the bidding. As it happens, Mr. Rau’s team would have had a good j.*esult on the board even if the five-diamond contract had been defeated. By making a game both ways, however, they accomplished one of those big swings which the experts seek in team-of-four play. (Copyright. 1935, NEA Service. Inc.)

I “Leave any message?” “Just good-by.” He was furious. All the fun they had had together, the days of companionship had counted for nothing. That was the way with women. an a A MONTH later Mrs. Tracy reported to her brother, “Ann telephoned and I went to see her. ! She ha e , a job in a funny little bookstoie in a part of town you’ve i probably never been in in your life. j You have seen streets like it, though, | where most of the goods is dis- | played on the outside. Think of Ann working in a dingy shop. Right next door there are trousers, shirts and what not hanging from the awning. And across the street an Italian vegetable and fruit stand. I can't see whatever possessed her.” “It probably was all she could get right now. Jobs aren't picked up every day.” “But she had a good place here. And to leave it to go to a bookstore!” “Evidently she didn’t like us,” Allan said darkly. “Could you blame her?” Mrs. Tracy thought her brother j was looking thinner. He missed | Ann. She did, too, for that matter, and the children for a few days could not be comforted. Even now they were leading Miss Spencer a dance, forever talking of their beloved "Ann.” “Where’s this bookstore?” Mrs. Tracy told him. “I might decide to buy a book some day. Not for a long time. Not ever if I can stay away.” “Ann said there are some rare old books there. She was quite enthusiastic when I saw her. She was painting window signs. Said she had persuaded the owner it would be good business to advertise. He’s a broken-down professor, I gathered, and he and his wife live in the rear of the store.” “Where does Ann live?” “She and a girl she met somewhere—a girl who works in a department store have a small apartment together. Ann didn’t say where.” “What a life!” “That’s what I tried to tell her. She said she wasn’t worried about the future. If she could only get over the present she would be all right.” a a a GETTING over the present was proving fearfully hard for Ann. It meant a continual battle with her thoughts, concentrating on her duties. “Another day,” she thought each morning, as the drear procession of days went by. Another . . . another. And then it was fall and she was hurrying into the shop out of the raw, wind-swept streets, warming her hands at the big stove in the back of the shop. Professor Barber—he still used the title he had acquired in happier days—was pleased over Ann’s interest in her work and gratified over results. The shelves had never before been so clean. The books had never before been so neatly and attractively arranged. Business was picking up, too. “It was a good day for us when she came here, eh, mother?” the old man said to his wife one night. “The customers like her fine.” “So pretty and kind,” Mrs. Barber said. “So interested in helping people find what they want, father. The young men all come back to buy more books. Maybe if business keeps up, we can give her a raise by Christmas. What do you say, father?” “Maybe by the first of the year,” the old German said cautiously. Ann’s salary was only $lB a week. By practicing rigid economy she was able to live within it. From the S4O a week she had earned as governess to the Tracy children she had a small nest egg saved —close to $l5O. She was holding this intact. Her emergency fund, she called it. She might get sick, might lose her job. Anything might happen. She was trying to keep her courage. But it was hard, struggling for a place in the crowded street car. Sometimes giving up a coveted seat to someone who looked more weary and tired and worn than she. Standing in line at the cafeteria each day a L . noon and going home after a hard day to help Sheila Davis prepare t 1 ipper. A year ago at this time she was planning to marry Tony. It seemed forever since those carefree days, (To Be Continued)
