The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1913-12-13
by WINNIE LEE


& MY husband says he loves me,
way I want to be loved" writes a
little bride. At first I thought she
must be a very YOUNG bride or
she wouldn't be SO particular, but
after meditation I wondered IL ANY
woman really knows just how she
does want to be loved.
Love is-well. Just LovE-to a
man. If he is young man 1t
doesn't interfere in the least with
his absorption in football nor cause
him to miss single fine point of
play even when the lady of his
heart is by his side missing all of
them,
II he is an older business man he
can always put aside memories and
postpone dreams until lunch time;
and after that he can neglect to
call her up as he had promised be-
cause of a rush of midafternoon af-
fairs; and he can take a personal
interest in his stenographer's per-
sonal affairs without a twinge of
conscience; AND THEN BE LATE
TO DINNER.
But love to a woman means keep
ing one man in the background OF
her mind all of the time. To this
image on her subconscious mind all
the duties of the day become votive
offerings. She fixes her hair in the
morning in the way he prefers It,
even though she expects to do 1t up
three times more before he comes
at night. Just because he likes
red, she puts a red rose in her hat,
though it doesn't become her. as
seriously as she would place Bios
SONS before a shrine. And her
daily occupations are a sacrifice.
and her thoughts are like. the burn
ing of incense.
She can remain in this fine
ecstacy just SO long as she i'm
AGNES that it is understood and
appreciated. And of course she
expects to be idealized and idolized
Just the same in return.
And then-ons dreadful day
she discerns that this sort of ex-
allied emotion is considerably wear
ing to husband. And so she walls:
HE doesn't love me the way I
want to be loved" meaning. of
course, the way she thinks she de-
serves to be loved.
And every woman who listens,
sympathizes with her.
Whenever anybody in this world
feels neglected. 1t is a pretty good
time to set to work to prove their
usefulness to somebody else.

the French daredevil who first
performed the hazardous loop and
rode with his feet toward the sun.
Straps hold Beachey to his seat
and that almost superhuman
sense Of balance has thus far en-
abled him to negotiate the desper-
ave swoops and turns by which
the most thrilling feat of aero
nautics Is accomplished.
Beachey had determined to
quit flying on the announced
ground that the example of his
daring was sending other less ex-
periencej birdmen hurting to
their death.
But the challenge of Poiret to-
the rest of the world was too
much for him. What Frenchman
could do, an American most Ger
tainly could do.
He began by taking sharper
and sharper spirals. until finally
he crossed the death line between

Tuesday night, the anniversary of
