To prove their statements all untrue
She answered sneers with words O. praise,
Found something in his careless ways
Worth boastin' of, an when they'd mock,
She showed she'd come of fightin' stock.
Now girls is girls, an folks should know

There's some, perhaps, at you can drive,
But I'm close on to sixty five
An I amt found one yet so meek

Or jog your way or change her mind
II she wuz otherwise inclined:
JUS cross one once an see how fur.
With all your strength, you'll git with her
She'd rue the day, they frequent said,
When she to much a man wuz wed,
Poor stuff his people were. an he
Poor to the end o. time would be:
An this, 1 have said before,
JUS made her love him more an more,
Until it happened one fine day
The two of 'em just slipped away
An straight unto the parson went
Which ended all the argument
All this was forty years ago.

Exemption from taxation, for a pc
riod of fifteen years, of all new dwell
ings is being advocated. At a special
session of the New York legislature in
September a law was passed allowing
county and local bodies to exempt new
dwellings for ten years. The New
Jersey legislature in September passed
a mandatory law, exempting until
October 1925, all improvements made
to real estate before October /. 1922
The object of these enactments, of
course, is to relieve the housing short
age. 1t is too early to make estimates
on the results, but the effect of this
legislation will be watched with in
terest by the rest of the country,

made thru diplomatic channels. Some
of the senators brought out the fact
that an attempt had once before been
made to effect such an arrangement
automatically, and that all the ma
tons but Italy and China had objected.
No reason in law or common sense
was offered, however. why we should
not be able to receive immigration on
our own terms or reject it altogether.
Mr.. Wallis further believes that to
make any regulation of immigration
effective, the inspectors must be high
grade men. He points cut that such
men cannot be obtained at the salaries
now paid which range from $1,400 to
$4,000 a year. He points out that
these inspectors decide human desti-
MES and that men of education and
intelligence are required.
Lastly, Mr.. Wallis believes that in
telligent immigration legislation should
provide some machinery by which the
immigrant is aided to find a job. A

Dorothy Dix Talks
BIZ DOROTHY DIX
werla's Highest Paid Woman WFfse4.
You Can't Do 1t, Gentlemen-2.

And it doesn't speak much for either
one that so many men marry women
of whom they tire before the honey
moon is over. For the unfaithful hus-
band is the tangible proof of a mans
bad matrimonial guess. The man who
marries the woman who satisfies his
ideals is siren-proof. No one can lure
him away from his own fireside if he
finds there comfort and companion
ship, and understanding and Sympa-
thy, all that soul and body crave.
No man in his sober senses desires
a fool for his wife. No educated man
looks forward with joy to lifetime
mpanionship with a woman who has
never read anything deeper than the
six best sellers, and who yawns in his
face when he tries to talk to her about
the subjects in which he is really in
terested. No man who has his own
way to make in the world desires the
handicap of a wife who is wasteful and
extravaganza. and who thinks that a
womans mission in life is to spend
money, and a mans to provide her
with it to spend.
Yet you see otherwise sane and sem
sible men blithely lead to the altar the
very sort of women they do not want
as wives. Intelligent men marry driv-
cling idiots. College professors marry
butterflies. Poor men espouse spend
ers, and then they wall, and beat upon
their breasts, and call upon heaven to
witness that ma rriage is a failure, and
to see what misfit wives they have got.
Their excuse is the same as my
friends. They married the woman
who fired their fancies in the belief
that they could cut them over to suit
their ideas, and they found out too late
that the thing couldn't be done.
There is no other piece of human
vanity equal to that which makes us
believe that We are more powerful
than hereditv and environment and
that We can change that which nature
has spent twenty or more years in
building up. Men and women alike
hold this theory. Men are particular
ly strong for it, but it never works out
in either case.
solute man to reform him, finds that
he is just as lazy and dissolute after,
marriage as he was before. The man.
who marries a silly, pleasure-lovings
clothes mad girl, ascertainS that she
has no more sense after marriage than
she had before, and that she is just
as crazy about gadding around, and
having a good time and Paris finery.
If a man should go to a shop and
deliberately select fragile Dresden
china parlor ornament, and then COM
plain when he got it home that it was
not an iron pot, or if he should buy
a motor truck and expect it to sud
denly turn into satin-lined limousine.
we should send him to the nearest
insane asylum. But man asks these
miracles of matrimony every day, and
cannot understand why they fail to
materialize.
The only remedy for the unsuitable
marriage is prevention. Pick out the
sort of husband or wife you want in
stead of trying to change man or
woman to suit your fancy. For it
can't be done.

mitted to name more than three
