quIrod to Toll Presldent
Wilson Of His
Plans.


WASHINGTON Aug. 30.--High off,
cials here today expressed the belief
that President Huerta is deliberately
stalling in negotiation with Special
Envoy John Lind. Hurta's note to
Lind as partially received is the basis
for this belief Another installment
of Huerta's note, said to be 1000
words in length, was received today.
Because Of its length and time re-
quired for code translation at Mexico
City and the state department, the
entire text is not expected to be in
the hands Of Presiden Wilson before
this evening. It became known today
that In his note Huerta asks for time
for careful and deliberate considera-
tfon OF the proposal. That he ''is
greatly interested In the American
representation" and Is receptive to
j further explanations from Governor
Lind is indicated.

DON'T MARRY TOO YOUNG

much better chance of being happy
when married if she waits until she is
"a or % years old before she weds, be-
cause she is then mature, with settled
taste and knows the kind of husband
she really needs and wants. Also be-
cause she is ready to settle down and
make home, instead of wanting to be
forever gadding about to places Of
amusement. and feeling herself i'll
used because she is tied down to hus
band, home and children.
Certainly, too, the girl who rushcs
from schoolroom into matrimony cuts
herself out of her playtime for life. No
matter how we'll woman marries, nor
how kind and good her husband is,
marriage is no picnic 1t is state OF
serious responsibilities, and grave du
ties, and no married woman can ever
be carefree as a girl is.
Those who favor early marriages
talk beautiful poetic nonsense about
a young couple growing up and de-
veloping together, but this is foolish
talk. 1t is an accident, a miracle,
when it happens, just as much as if
you should plant an oak and rose to-
gether and they should both attain the
same size and strength.
Very Young People Are Selfish
AS a matter of fact, very young peo-
pie are always selfish, always intent
on their own way, always opinionated,
and they quarrel because they lack the
experience the knowledge of life, ami
the self-control to get along together.
1t takes age to teach us tact in handl-
ing other people, and patience and for
bearance toward them, and that is an
ether reason why people who marry
later in life stand better chance for
peace and happiness.
Undoubtedly girl of 10 would be
more apt to mistake infatuation for
love than a woman of "a, but, alas,
neither age nor wisdom enables us ;0-
solve this problem, which is the crux
of the whole domestic question. If we
could distinguish infatuation from love
there would be no more unhappy mar
riages, for misery only comes in at the
door when infatuation flies out of the
window, but love always stays close at
the fireside

(By Dorothy Dix

The one subject on which a girl and
her parents will never agree is, when
lis the love time of life In the girls
opinion the psychological moment
arrives whenever some good looking
youth, with a winning way with him,
puts in appearance on the scene.
On the other hand, the parents con-
tend that maiden should not think OF
love and marriage until she has pre-
pared herself for the responsibilities
they entail, and that there is no hurry
about getting married, anyway, be-
cause when you are married you are
generally married a very long time.
A father who is arguing with his
daughter this eternal problem that
comes up between every girl and her
parents asks this question:
Don't you think that the average
girl of 10 or 20 is very apt to mistake
infatuation for love and that to become
engaged at that age would be cheating
herself out Of the happiest years of her
life? Do you not think that her judg-
ment in choosing husband would be
much less apt to be wrong if she
would wait until she was "a or Is
years old?"
am no believer in early marriages.
l think that if no woman married be-
fore she was rs, and no man before he
was 80, it would materially reduce the
amount of domestic misery in the
world.

Immature Take Great Risk.
There are enough risks in matrimony
anyway without taking any chances on
what you are going to be your
self, and the kind of a wife or hus-
band you are going to want when you
come to maturity. And that's what
people do who marry before their
tastes have ripened

There is no experience in life more dis

Ninety-nine times out of a hundred
when you see a conspicuously mis-
mated couple you will find out that
they were married when they were
very young, and one of the twain has
gone on growing and developing, while
the other has stood stock still, just
what he or she was when the immature
judgment of the other picked him or
her out for husband or wife.
| have also been interested in notinS
this other fact-that in almost every
case of martial infidelity the one wits

she was very young, and before he or
she knew anything of society, or knew
anything of the destinations of womeE

nothing of womens wiles, or their
tricks, and their manners, and in the

A girl fancies herself in love with
the first man that makes love to her
