Jane Urges Pair to Make | Own Decision, Unswayed |

By Families.

Put your question in a letter to Jane Jordan, who will study your problems and answer your letters in this column daily.

EAR Jane Jordan — 1wo years ago 1 met a girl who is the kind of woman every man admires. During the two years that I have

enjoyed her company, I have learned to love her very dearly. We would like nothing better than a home of our own but are fronted with an age-old barrier, something that is constantly robbing people of their happiness-—a difference of religion. We are inclined to be sensible and broadminded in everything we undertake. This feeling for each other swept dowixon us so swiftly that we didn’t have a chance to back away and forget. To leave each other now would only make us miserably unhappy. I do nof ask her to give up her, religion and she does not ask that -of me. The difficulty lies in the question of children and what they shall be taught. Neither of us is orthodox in our respective religion. But the fact that custom has been prominently adhered te on both sides is causing much consternation. C.P.and T. P. ANSWER—The success of your

marriage would depend entirely on | personal |

the strength of your prejudices. It would make for more peace in the family if one of you would adopt the religion of the other. If this cannot be done, and neither can bear the thought of children reared in the religion of the other, of course you're in for a bad time. I cannot help but regard this as a barrier erected by man instead of by God, but my opinion isn’t of much comfort to you if you hold the opposite. The precepts taught in youth carry much more weight with the individual than the casual view of an outsider. : You state that neither of you is orthodox in his religion. This leads me to believe that -the real comnflict lies within your respective families who give you no rest and who are determined to decide for you. No family has any right to dominate one of its members or meddle with his destiny. In case you decide against some. strongwilled member of the family, it would be safer for you to live somewhere else to escape constant pressure. The only advice I feel justified in offering is: Be sute your decision is your own, dictated by the will of either family. " ”n 2 DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I am 3 girl of 24, I have been married but my husband divorced me because he

was interested in other women. I do | not go with boys as I am afraid fo | trust them. I love to dance and do | the things all girls love to do. I go to dances with girl friends, but I won't dance because some off the boys want |

to take me home. I have quit going any place now. 1 have chances to ‘be with boys,

but I don’t want to be around.

them. What is the matter with me? Do you think I should forget the past and have friends? Do you think I will be married again? 1 want a home gnd all that goes with it. LONESOME PAL. ANSWER~—It is certain that you will not marry again if you avoid men. Some people simply collapse after a disappointment. It is as if they were covered with a dangerolis mucilage to which every experierice sticks forever. A discouraged person is one who will not let go of the past and its pains. As long as he clings to his wounds he will lack the energy to make new friends and build a better life. Make it your business to let go of the past. JANE JORDAN.

SOLUTION TO PREVIOUS PROBLEM BY WILLIAM E. M'KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary RIDGE authorities lay down the rule that when a player is confronted with a situation in which he must find a specific card in a certain hand, in order to make his contract, he must play for that distribution, however improbable it may be. . The rule is a good one, of course, with the exception that, when the chance is too remote and the resultant loss would be entirely too great, another play might safeguard the hand. The rule, however,. works two ways, both offensively and defen-

sively. Mrs. Cecile Guthrie of the

Character, Writer Says

Our True Selves Are Our Thoughts and Speech Affects View.

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Sometimes 1 wonder what people would be like if speech had never been invented. Because words, spoken and heard, read and thought, are the making of character, either bad or good. Our true selves are our thoughts, but strange to say, the words we speak, even at random, affect our view, just as an affected limp will eventually cramp the leg. In a household that ferments

said of anybody or anything, not only the bacteria of hate get into the children, but a lingo of destruction is fostered. Everything is “mean” or “awful” or “bad,” and people are everything under the sun, It’s an Unwitting Fault Most of us will look about now and think of one family or two that we know, and cluck our tongues. “Yes; that’s true of the Smiths and Joneses,” we say virtuously. But if a ghost could stand in one of our corners, with a notebook, and record for a day a list of destructive words used right in our own households, many of us would be chagrined and ashamed. Words Are Contagious

Nothing is as contagious as the destructive. word. On the other hand, like most good and true things, the optimistic phrase travels slowly. Parents feel that in their own homes, at least, they are free to express their troubles. Father comes in, tired out and full of woe; mother, harried and suppressed, perhaps by lack of money and time to get out. more, gets her outlet through complaining. : There may be others in the house, too, with aches and pains, or private grievances of various kinds, and these are unloaded generously on any listener. Children Add to Rancor

The children come in then, and air their petty jealousies, not that they are any less important to them than troubles are to their elders. In the end, although each of us has relieved his ego and spit out a share of poison, he has absorbed everybody else’s poison, too. No one has helped anybody, and feels not one whit better. turn into cause, and color everyThe hardest thing to learn is seifcontrol. The next hardest .is to smile and say kind things when our need seems to be to flay somebody. Contrary to belief, it is self-con-trol that reacts pleasantly. (Copyright, 1937, NEA Service, Inc.)

Children, It Would Seem, Are Builders Best Pals

Youngsters Get Credit for Inducing Parents to Buy Their Own Homes.

By MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Growing young Americans are the real powers which motivate the

family to buy a home.

“Junior doesn’t have to yell at the top of his lusty lungs for a fiveroom bungalow,” said Joseph J. Argus, real estate executive. “Parents

Garden plots and terrace landscaping may lure some few but most

home owners invest for “family’s sake,” he said. Investment runs a poor third for home ownership, it was learned. “We built our new home for the sake of our two boys,” said Mrs. Earl E. Davis, 6135 N. Delaware St. “They are more content in their own back yard since it really belongs to them.” The Davises didn’t want the moving van to become an inseparable part. of their youngster’s memories. Now they hope to impart to them a feeling of belonging to a community. . The woman of the family, in 90 per cent of the cases, is the instigator of a home-buying deal, in

she insisted. But when their twostory Colonial house was. completed in January she confessed that she was the one who could scarcely wait to move.

Termed Thrift Inducement

Mr. Carson believes that home | ownership is offered to the head of | the American household on a sturdy | platter today. “It is an inducement for thrift,” | he said. He indorses the plan of young couples obligating them- | selves for a home. “Otherwise, they are likely to have nothing to show for their | money,” he said. The average couple buys a home after being married five years, according to statistics. The average price is $4899, about two years’ salary for the average husband. Ray C. Fox's experience in the real estate business has proven to him that very few couples without children invest in a home for permanenc¢y. Apartments satisfy their needs and they don’t have the usual family reason for “spreading out,” he said. Few people actually build their own homes, according to realtors. Most of them select houses that builders have constructed. :

Mistakes Termed Costly

“The, individual builder makes too many costly mistakes unless he has had some construction experience,” Mr. Fox said. “The public is fairly open minded about the type of architecture in its homes,” he

added. “People know exactly how many rooms and baths they want and they also like to have a hand in the decorating . but they aren't 50 particular about the exteriors.” :

New houses are bought by only

31 per cent of the home-owning public, statistics show, . Most people find the house of their choicz and buy it regardless of its former years of occupancy. The above real estate rules don't seem to apply to one childless couple, married 10 years. They don't want a garden and didn’t buy the bungalow as an investment. “Why did we buy our house?” repeated the wife.

“Just say we wanted a corner on some fresh air of our own.”
