Suggestions on Married Man
Girl in 'Teens Confesses ‘Her Relationship Is “Bad Business.”
He has never gotten along with his wife. He wants me to go steady, but I don’t see how I can. I refuse to see him, Jane Jordan give him a cold 3 - shoulder, but still he comes. I think very much of
him and would like to go with him
if he were single. My folks refuse |
when I ask to go with some one. They never like any one I want to 1 go with; so I go anyway. They do not know this man is married. He “does not live very far from our home, but they only have heard me call ‘him by his nickname. I run around with his sister and she is a good kid. He lives in the same house with her and when I call on her I see him. Then sometimes he follows us to make a date with me. Should I quit running around with “him or not? Answer soon; as I am anxious to know what you think, UNDECIDED. * Answer—I do not wish to tell you ‘whether you should go with this young married man or not. I would rather have you decide for yourself ;after we inquire into the “reasons which make you willing to engage in what you call “bad business.” I begin to see why a good girl likes “bad business” when you say, “My folks refuse when I ask to go with some one. They never like any one I want to go with; so I go anyway.” * This is the remark of a discouraged girl. Failing to meet with sympathy from your family in your endeavor to make friends with the other sex in a socially acceptable manner, you conclude that it doesn’t make any differ- ‘ ‘ence whether you conform te the . rules of society or not, since you will meet with condemnation in any case. But this isn’t good reasoning, is it? Your parents aren’t the only people in the world. Besides the real - reward for shaping your life according to social requirements lies in the fact that it is the only pos- _ sible method of growing up into a -useful and satisfied woman, Of course your parents’ insympathetic attitude doesn’t wholly explain why you tolerate this young married man. ‘ You say he has “never gotten along with his wife. I just wonder if your father has never gotten along with your mother and “4f you find ’yoursélf siding’ with him in their difficulties. If this is true it would tend to make you side with “other men who have difficulty with {their wives. I am only .guessing, : for I do not know you. What I do ‘know is that no ‘girl makes her v first misstep without having a back- . ground for it somewhere in -the experience of her childhood. Possibly your father has. not
VESTALS REVEAL WEDDING PLANS

because father love and sweetheart love are two different varieties, and rarely, if ever, combined in one man. Think this over and practice reasoning your way out of your problems.

The well-tailored frock is a cheerful traveling companion of flamingo crepe, on the dot of fashion. The exuberant cape falls finger-tip length and shows its flamingo lining ih the breezes. Fashioned of dove gray sheer, the coat and cape are given an unexpected accent by the gleaming patent leather belt which - fastens with a cartwheelsized. disc buckle.

for. - Children Underrated I have always felt that we, at ters.
home, underrated our youngsters. And that school overrated them.
Yet, the school idea is right. It is|
better to give the child something to reach for than to make a standard so easy that mental muscles get lazy Too oh of the average child’s
home life is mere putting in time.
One day is like another and if little boys or clean, and fit themselves right well into our household pattern, we think they have been taught all they need to know. And yet they are at their most receptive stage; more keen to pick up interests and try out their untrained fingers in earnest. If the. busy ‘mother can’t find time to initiate her girl and ‘tries to fill up time with more and more toys or synthetic interests such as
: | movies and books; in time this fresh
keen desire to. imitate what older people are doing will go wandering off somewhere by itself and get lost. The iron has ‘cooled and ambition with it. Learn From Tasks There is something else, too, that should be mentioned. It concerns “interest” also. Many parents do let children help with. the work, which is excellent training, and right; but this concerns another principle . in When a girl helps her mother to make beds or wash dishes, it is her
mother’s interest she is working for,
not her own. When the boy washes the car or weeds the yard, it is his parents’ interests he is engaged in. - Let ‘me not discount this: It is something I recommend heartily. But “each child should also have something -of his own to: dig his teeth into; something that - takes thinking, work, manipulation and construction. . Trust these. children. They have more ability than. you
They Need Advice Try to find time to set them right and to give some needed advice and instruction. They will make mistakes, but so would you if you were learning to sail a catboat or make sauce Marguery for the first time. You can learn both. And so can the children learn to do hundreds of things you think they can’t. Watch small tendencies, to discover ‘just what “interest” might bear the quickest fruit. Sally may want to cook. Let her: I don’t think she will spoil tod much food in her experiments. Jim’s fingers itch to work in wood, yes, little Jim only 7 or 8 years old. Isn’t there some hon-est-to-goodness way to show him how? Toys help, constructive toys, but real responsibility is nourished on real things. It 1s all so worth

Heat Wave Just — of Mind, Chicago Health Official Says
By United Press CHICAGO, July 16.—“This heat wave,” said Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, Chicago Board of Health presi.dent, “is just a state of mind.” . ' The bushy-haired, blue-eyed health expert relaxed in his stuffy office, looking cool in his white duck trousers, white shirt and wash tie, A little breeze seemed to spring up-as he began to speak. “Do everything gently and slowly,” he advised softly. “Keep calm.”
