Dear Miss Grey: AS the
mother of three big boys, two
OF whom are engaged, l am
naturally interested in what
the girls are spending for
fine clothes nowadays. 1
have had these thoughts in
my mind for some time and
would like to have them
written where they will do
the most good, SO decided
your column was the best
place for them.
! would like to die think
ing my sons were going to
get some happiness out of
life, but all can prophesy
for the two who are engaged
is a life shaving for money
for their wives to spend on
dress.
One of these girls works
and should know the value of
a dollar. The other has a
nice home and a devoted
mother, who has given up all
her own pleasure ever since
the girl started to high
school, just to sew and sew,
making pretty things for her
daughter. So far as l can
see the two girls are much on
a par in the amount of
clothes they get through in
a year.
The real test of a girl Is
after all what kind of a wife
she will make, not whether
she can dance the tango, not
even whether she is a good
business woman. But / am
positive that the way these
girls spend money for their
clothes makes them unfit to
become the wives OF average
energetic young men.
The worst of 1t is these
girls never seem to think of
this themselves. They are
facing marriage as innocent
as kittens of what 1t takes to
pay the rent and the grocery
bills. l never hear them
speak of such things, though
they often chatter about
their dover chests and their
hand-embraidered lingerie
and the wedding clothes. /
try to be a sensible old wom-
an and l do not interfere,
but | would give the rest of
my life If my sons could find
two girls who had been rails
ed up to appreciate the man
who earns the money more
than what the money buys.
l believe that hundreds of
other mothers of sons feel
just as l do. Is 1t any won
der some of them have
trouble with their daughters
in-law?
ONE MOTHER.
A.-Women measure the co.
an article by its money valu,
ut each dollar they spend W,
reduced by the energy of SON
lan's brain, nerves and muscle
so, the price of won
MS dress today is often a tragi
'aste.
The mother who writes aboy
nOws this, although she puts til
lin9 differently.
