of youth, the skin is bound to sag, giving the features a pulled-down

expert continues, “Or she can get one

rubbing, pullinig and stretching of the skin are to be avoided, proper patting and deep but gentle kneading with upward and outward

movements will help to keep muscles firm. For those on a

JANE JORDAN -

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am a widow 33 years old. I have a

girl of 13 and a boy of 11.

I have a man 41 years old who comes to

should have a friend? My problem now is her and she is only 15. What should

Answer—Certainly you should have a man friend. No matter

how much a woman loves her mature masculine companionship. another love adjustment in life give up everything for their

children they do not take the place of

Widows who are able to make

make better mothers than those who children. To live for one’s children may

seem like a noble sacrifice but it places a heavy responsibility on: the children in later life which they are reluctant to discharge, It is natural for your 13-year-old daughter to kegin to show an interest in boys. You should encourage it by making both boys and

girls

welcome at your home. She is too young to have unlimited

freedom to go out and stay late but she will not ask for it if she sees

enough of boys at her own and other girls’ homes. Boys of her age do not have enough money to

take girls out, often,

if at all. The double date seems to be ‘a good solution for very young

girls. If they to wait a few years for the freedom

He described the Democratic Party as “capable of progress and of adapting the needs of the time to the constitutional set-up of the republic and in it the young people of the nation will find the truest safeguard to their great rights and privileges of this country.”

CHILDREN . By OLIVE BARTON

WHICH OF THESE is true of the only child:

Is. he lonely? B. Happy? C. Selfish? D. Anti-social?

Unless .the one boy or girl in a family is completely cut off from friends and normal daily experiences, he is usually very happy. It is untrue that such children are victims of great loneliness. Sometimes he doesn’t quite know how to fill in his time, but not too often, because today, with all the

group activities and entertainment going on, there are dozens of ways in waich he can mix and gain experience. He is selfish only if his parents let him become so. Naturally, he has more belongings than he would have were there some sisters and brothers. © He is also used to more conveniences he need not share. The only child is less likely to be anti-social, I think, in many cases, than the one who has learned to distrust his family and all people, when home life and those who should be dear to him are not to his liking. But the give-and-take of the large famly usually is good for most everybody in it, as a rule. Erotherly love and sisterly love are good for the soul and breed loyalty, or should. ‘Two or four children learn lessons from each other and a certain co-operation thgf founds sportsmanship and acceptance. If a child has to learn to take his own part against the depredations of sisters and brothers, that is also good for him, unless he reaches the point of disgust. 2 8 2

THEN, TOO, as he grows older and loses one or both parents, it is fine for him to know that his own blood is flowing in other veins. After all, family blood is thicker than water, and that counts for a lot in later years. Today I am going to name “A” as the principal truth about the lone child. He is not usually too lonely. He is not selfish if he has parents wise ‘enough to train him, He is usually quite happy. And he is anti-social only if he has no spirit at all and learns without reason.

Ansiamary Dickey . . . Srosstind Operatic Star Now With Met

“By RUTH MILLETT * Times Special Writer Certainly the typical American girl isn’t an opera singer. But it so happens that one of the Metropolitan’s - ' newcomers,” Annamary Dickey, is a typical American girl. Here is the evidence—and you can be the judge. Born in Decatur, Ill. Father a dentist. Put herself through college (Millikin University) by winning scholarships and working. .- Her New York venture is a story in itself. For like the heroine of a “work hard and be a success” tale, Annamary had a tough time of it. Even though 'she came to New York to study, it was necessary for her to support herself as well as pay for voice lessons. little money here, a little there, singing in church choirs, for funerals, at women’s clubs. She even turned housekeeper for a year and a half. Later she was in the chorus of the

St. Louis Municipal Opera Co., un-

derstudying the stars. You guessed It—the leading ‘lady became ill and Annamary took the role on 30 minutes’ notice. The St. Louis critics raved about her voice, which, by the way, is a lyric soprano,

Luck turned her back on the singer. Then Lady Luck turned ‘round and smiled, and Annamary won the Metropolitan Auditions of the Air contest — and was immediately signed by the Metropolitan Opera 0.

So you can erase your mind’s picture of an opera star—hefty, foreign, and temperamental. For if Annamary Dickey of Decatur, Ill, is a fair sample, the new crop will be
