ine Stuart, Mary Jane Hickerson,| :

DEAR JANE JOR DA N—What shall I do about a 20-year-old son who doesn’t care a thing about the girls? He always has been large

for his age and is very fond of sports, but I think he should show some interest in the feminine sex by now. HIS MOTHER.

# 8

Answer—The first question for you to ask yourself is “why?” What are the discouraging influences in his life which make him feel unequal to girls? The only thing you mention is his size which in’ a man should not put him at a disadvantage. Perhaps as a child he felt overgrown, awkward and conspicuous which made him more retiring than normal. Often these childish embarrassments influence the. adult life of a person more than we expect them to. Has he an attractive sister whom he felt got more of the family’s attention than she deserved, or at least more than he got? This sometimes makes a boy feel pretty sour about risking the competition of another girl. Or, he may be overdevoted to a sister or his mother and feel that they are irreplaceable in his scheme of things. If you knew -the source of his discouragement perhaps you could help him make a better adjustment by building up his: ego in the weak spots. His success in athletics is), in his favor. An athletic hero has to run pretty fast to get away from the blandishments of the fair sex. There isn’t much you can do now in the way of forcing girls on him. He has-to work it out by: himself. You should have started to worry a little earlier. in his development. Usually a boy who has associated freely with girls all his life and who hasn't been made the brunt of ridicule when he felt the first onslaught of puppy love, makes a good adjustment to girls long before he is 20 !years old.

You'll just have to wait until |

some girl makes up her mind to go after him. If she gets it into her head that he is one of these strong, silent men from the west she will do more for him than ever you could hope to do yourself. % JANE JORDAN.

Learn Hi listory of Aerial Warfare

: By VIRGINIA HATFIELD "“Ohhhhh, look at the airplanes!” Then it takes all of mother’s powers of persuasion to drag herp airsminded son away from the new exhibit of world war 1 aircraft now" on display at the Children’s

museum.

The 15 model planes; made by 1 Put. Ruppert Dailey, are the feature exhibit at the museum this month. They represent four years’

work, 1933-37, by Pvt. Dailey, who |

was ‘provided with materials and encouraged in his hobby by Frank Kreisher, his scout master. When they were completed, Pvt. Dailey | gave the collection to Mr. Kreisher who in turn has presented them to the museum. . In making the airplanes of the first world war, Pvt. Dailey was forced to do a bit of research to find pictures and plans from which to model. If he decides to continue his hobby in the present war, he’ll have first hand information for he is stationed with the 96th pursuit squadron on an island somewhere near Australia. He is attached to the communications division of the squadron. Fighter and observer planes of the French, English and German air. forces are included in the exhibit. The first planes used in the. war were for scouting purposes only, Enemy pilots returning from re=connaissance flights would. waves gaily to each other. Then one day, one pilot, as the’ Fgoes, passed .above an enemy filer and

dropped a few bricks on him. So, real. aerial warfare began. The first fighter planes with machine guns were really something. A pilot in a dogfight might shoot off his own propeller because the shots and the propeller weren't synchronized. But, those days are in the past.

Models Complete

‘Among the fighter planes in the museum collection is the English Sopwith Camel, which was the Spitfire of the last war. It was a single-seater used largely by the American air force and fitted with two machine guns firing through the propeller. Pvt. Dailey’s model is complete even to the details of the ‘machine guns and a pilot to fire them. : There also is a copy of the famous French Spad fighter, which was Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker’s favorite plane. It ranked among the fastest machines for ‘both speed and climb used by.the “allies in the last war. - Then there is the Vickers Gun Bus, a pusher airplane with a propeller behind the wings instead of in front. .This was an English scouting plane in which the pilot sat well in front of the fuselage and had an uninterrupted view forward, below and on each side. In front of him sat an observer with a machine gun. The appearance of the interrupter gear, which allowed a machine ‘gun. to fire through the: propeller, soon caused the Gun Bus to become obsolete.

German Planes Shown Among the oddities on exhibit are a Fokker triplane - fighter (Germen) and an English Armstrong - Whitworth quadraplane.

‘| Baron von Richtofen, the Black

Knight of Germany, flew the Fokker D-VII and the Pfalz D-V, included in the display. In comparison with today’s

| streamlined armored, fighters, the

Messerschmift, Airacobra and Spitfire, the 1514-18 planes look very fragile. The top speed in

those days was around 116 m. p. h.

Pvt. Dailey’s models are fragile, too. The youngsters couldn’t resist trying to touch them while they were hanging on wires at the museum, so they have been placed in cases. Play New Games

After viewing the exhibits, children ‘may amuse themselves by working puzzles and playing educational games. The puzzles, mostly jig-saw, include: maps and pictures of life among different peoples. “There are a number of
