Geraldine Bohannon,
High School Philosopher

Oakland, Calls marriage a fail
ure?" asks 17-year-old Geraldine Bo-
harmon, high school student of this
city who has been moved to attempt
solving the riddle in! verse.
This girl, daughter of an inventor
and considered a parliamentarian of
promise, has surprised her friends by
her exceptional ideas on marriage.
She believes that blondes, are not as

good housekeepers as brunettes nor
as good wives. Miss Bohannon is of
the opinion that blondes are of a
lighter nature and are captivating to
men; whereas brunettes are more
settled and are better homemakers.
There are fewer divorces among the
brunettes than among the blondes,
she claims.
''oThe right age for women to marry
is 25,' says Miss Bohannon, 'for then
girls have had an opportunity of de-
veloping physically and mentally.
The maid of Is is impressionistic
and easily led My advice to girls is
to wait until they have mature judg-
ment, otherwise their marriage will
be a failure. 1t would be benefit to
the race if women would wait until
they reach the age of rs. Then they
are practical, broad and make good
mothers"
