DEAR JANE JORDAN—A young Man and I have been going steady for almost three years. We talked of getting married once just before the war started, but ‘postponed

the marriage until we could see what was to happen as a result of this war. We love each other very much. He wants to get married and so do I, but he doesn’t want to leave me. I haven't had what you would call a real home and I haven't now. He wants to give me a home. His parents like me and my mother likes him better than any , other boy I've gone with, He has 8 level head and when he starts things he sees them through to the finish, If I'm ever sick he always is right there to do what he can for me. He doesn’t want to get married . because he thinks if he goes he * won't come back. A WAR BRIDE, 1 HOPE, . 8 » # , Answer—War marriages made between couples who knew each other and planned to marry before the war have a better chance to suc‘ceed than spur-of-the-moment marriages made in the heat of excitement. Since the young man is the one who has to carry the responsibility r a future home, it is up to him to make the decision, After you have considered the risks involved, if you still are willing to take a chance, all you can do is to say so. ~ There is a chance that he won’t come back, or that he will come back wounded. Perhaps he wonders if he will be able to get a job after the war and fears the period of readjustment. However, it is possible to have too many fears, and to count on troubles which never may happen. Life goes on, war or no war, and many young couples are courageous enough to proceed with their prewar plans. ¢ No one can tell you what to do. It depends on your own ability to bear up under privation and meet each situation as it arises.

Ray, first vice president; Mrs. John F. Fairhead, second vice president; Mrs. Thomas A. Lenahan, recording secretary; Mrs. Maurice L. Hayes, corresponding secretary, and Mrs. Charles E. McCoy, treasurer. Mrs. Kennington was hostess for

the first meeting of the group at the Marott hotel.

Extending the Life Of Foundations

Wash foundation garments as frequently as any other undergarment if” you would be fastidious, keep them long-wearing and dainty. Perspiration . discolors the fabric, tends to cause elastic inserts to stretch and sag. Washing is a good perspiration remover. But wash them correctly, carefully. Use lukewarm soapy water. Dunk the girdle up and down in the suds for several minutes. ~ When all perspiration and soil are removed, transfer the garment without wringing into a clear rinse water of the same temperature. Use as many rinses as is necessary to remove’ all traces of soap. After the last rinse, press out excess water, but do not wring or twist. Roll in a thick absorbent towel to blot up additional moisture. Hang

over a rod to dry. Ironing is not necessary. .

[Creer F ight t

Not Feminine Exclusively

By JANE STAFFORD {Science Service Writer

THEY PINNED a medal on a woman in New. YUE The other day becausé of-her long and valiant efforts in helping other women to escape cancer death. The woman is Dr. Elise S. L’Esperance. The medal is the Clement Cleveland medal awarded each year by the American Society for the Control of Cancer and its New York City Cancer committee.

Dr. L’Esperance’s cancer-fighting|

has been carried on through cancer prevention clinics where thou-

{sands of women anxious to know

if they had cancer were given thorough physical ‘examinations in which every part of the body ‘is searched for signs of the malignant disease. “During the past five years,” she reports, “approximately 1500 women were examined and among these 7 per cent were found to have cancer, most of them in the early stages. This 7 per cent of cancer incidence represents the number of unrecognized early malignant tumors, 98 per cent of which were curable because recognized early and treated promptly. It also emphasizes the rather startling fact that five out of every 100 of these adult women will now have an increased life expectancy of many

years.” 2 = 8

ALL OF THIS WORK in prevention of cancer deaths was for and by women, you notice. But the masculine population, Dr. L’Esperance pointed out, is also subject to cancer. Each year 70,000 men die of cancer in the United States. As in the feminine population, many of these cancer deaths among the men could be prevented, and cancer preventive clinics need not be limited to women. With the war taxing hospital and clinic facilities and physicians’ time and strength to the utmost, it may not be possible to get such clinics started immediately. The future possibilities for after the war are, however, worth keeping in mind. For the present, men should learn the minor symptoms that signal cancer in its early stages, and consult a physician prompily about them.
