Before Women Voters’ League

“Indianapolis youth must realize that there is no reasonable educational opportunity not provided by the city’s education institutions,” De-

‘Witt S. Morgan, superintendent of schools, said this

on “Indianapolis Youth.”

Mr. Morgan spoke before members of the League at the American United Life Insurance

~“The most direct approach to the youth problem at present,” the speaker said, “is to bring young people to take full advantages of the cpportunities to become thoroughly competent. : “The fact is that even in the face of depression years, offices are looking for competent stenographers, shops are looking for competent mechanics, and a wide variety of industries are seeking competent craftsmen. There is no security for youth which is so sure as the security which lies in personal competence. “A recent survey of Indianapolis youth definitely indicates a positive relationship between earnings and the amount of training received. There is definite indication that the wisest course for youth is to complete ,48 many years of school work _ as Possite and to make his training @ thorpugh as possible. “When it comes to getting a job the youth who has many friends, who has ability and personality and who c¢ prove his worth after he secures| the job is most likely %o Succeed.” Mrs. James Bawden, chairman of the ague Department of Government and education which #ponsored the meeting, introduced the speaker and presided at the meeting. Mrs. Bawden explained the work of the Department for the past year as a study of methods of schools in other cities for meeting the problem of young people unemployed ‘and out of school. The study revealed, she said, that there are 2000 young persons between the ages of 16 and 18 in Indianapolis who are not attending school, who did not finish high school and who are not employed.

JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am 14 years old and I go with a boy

who is 15. He is quite rich and I

am just average. When |I have

dates with him, lwhich is quite often, he makes remarks about my home and there isn’t a thing wrong with it. And then he talks about our car. It is a Ford V-8 and theirs is a Packard. I'nm getting tired of this because it is the best we can afford. I know he likes me because he goes out of his way all of the

time to please me. Please help me. | = 2

Answer—I admire your attitude very much. Instead of| letting this young man make you discontented with your modest home and car because he has more expensive ones, you are out of patience with ‘his attitude. . You are right and he is wrong. He has a tendency to judge people by their material possessions

and the fact that his family has more than yours makes

im feel

superior. The time will come when he cannot depend upon what his parents have achieved for his prestige, but will have to stand on

what he has achieved for himself.

Many a boy and girl who has started out in life with modest or poor surroundings, a junker or even no car, lives to out-distance

richer, and sometimes more spoiled,

companions. This is not a rule

in life but it happens often enough to behoove us all to judge people by their capacities instead of their cars. This does not mean that the sons and daughters of the rich never succeed, for they do. But the biographies of famous men and women show that many of them have risen from circumstances far less favorable than yours. Early deprivations acted as a spur toward

future achievement.

I think you can help this boy by pointing out these facts. After

all, he is young and his values are

a bit twisted. The fact that he

leans on his parents’ possessions for his prestige shows that he feels uncertain about| his own worth. Without this backing what would he be? He would have to look within himself for strength, as you do. Let the boy remember that the car of which he is so proud was

bought by his father.

Very likely no one has taken the trouble to point out these truths to the boy. He may see them quite readily when you confront him with the facts and point out the holes in his attitude. If he doesn’t, he isn’t worth bothering with at the moment. You are the stronger character. He recognizes your worth in spite of his shallow attitude. Otherwise he wouldn't seek your company. : My congratulations to you. You don’t need a better car to win

friends. I

PA GRADUATION OR “GOOD-TIME” FROCK

SHE'LL “GRADUATE” to a higher place in the fashion world

when she wears this delightful Claire Tilden dress, whether it's really graduation day or just partytime. Both the “long and the short of it” are given in two versions of Pattern 124—wouldn’t it make a perfect “first long dress” in filmy white or pastel chiffon?

The short version would be gay and crisp in cool dotted swiss or in voile. Notice the unusually soft bodice lines so becoming to a grow-ing-up miss. |The |yoke frolics right across the fronf in a merry scalloped line, and the neck is square and young. There's a lighthearted flare to the skirt with its front and back panels.

Aren't the puffed sleeves dainty made in a becoming, curved-up shape? Add perky bows of ribbon at the neck and sleeves and use lace edging for dainty femininity. With the Sewing Guide for expert reference, a girl could easily stitch it up all by herself. : Pattern 124 is cut in girls’ sizes 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14. Size 12, short length dress, requires 3 yards 35inch fabric and 1 yard lace edging.
