By MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS

Traders Point farmers are consulting their almanacs on weather predictions for Sept 25. That is the date which has just been announced py the Traders Point Hunt Club for its seventh annual party at the Hunt kennels. “Fair and cool” are the climatic conditions which the landowners are hoping for as they mark red rings around the date on their calendars. It's a tradition at the Hunt Club since 1930—this annual party for the farmers in the community, and they are all anticipating it with pleasure, [It Is the Hunt's way of expressing | appreciation to the landowners for E | permitting their fields to be paneled | for the fall and winter runs.

marriage a steadying influence if they can solve the economic problem. Often a young wife holds up her end by working, and I don't see why she should not, so long as her husband is not yet established and children are not yet advisable. The other solution is for the parents to help—as the duPonts and the Roosevelts presumably are doing. If parents are , able, there would seem to be no reason why they should not give the young people a start. It has always been the custom in ' France, and certainly marriage there has a stability which it lacks in this country. But the family there is also more of an institution than it is here, and daughters and sons, just because they are helped more, take more advice from parents than American young people care to take. That is the reason, perhaps, why many young men and women in col-

1lege say they would rather wait to

marry until they can do it on their own. They may be wise in following a sure instinct for independence. Yet if a young couple feel ready for marriage and their parents can contribute without sacrifice on their part, a little help judiciously given might start them on the right track, always provided they are made of the right stuff, What parents should beware of doing is to make it too easy for their
