their bobbed hair. and no serious aim

made compilations on straight. and are
reacting instinctively towards the
more sensible type of woman, do not
know.
But, at anx rate, there seems to be
! a mania just as present among men
for marrying women older than them
! selves. Every day we read in the pa
| pers accounts of elderly widows who
have led lads young enough to be
their grandsons to the altar, and my
own mail is full of letters from anx-
ious chaps who ask my opinion as TO
the advisability of espousing ladies
much their seniors in years.
I can only say to all such foolhardy
adventures. don't do it, son. don't do
it. Don't do it for your own sake,
don't do it for the woman's sake.
Marriage is full enough of dangers
and difficulties without injecting into
it the endless conflict between youth
and age. Not only in a thousand
times do the boy husband and the ma
ture wife succeed in being anything
but figures of fun to the public, and
a tragedy to themselves.
OF course. we like to say that the
heart keeps no calendar. and no count
of time, and that a lovers eyes see
only the youth and beauty of a wo-
mans soul and spirit, and take no
heed of the years that have registered
on her body. We also like to say
that we are only as old as we feel, and
that nothing is so stupid as counting
ones age by time.
All of which is tommyrot Age is
a terribly definite thing, and no mat
ter how we camouflage it to others,
or lie about it to ourselves there is
not one of US who does not know that
when We are forty we no more feel
or think, as we did at twenty than we
look twenty at forty.
More than this, there is a democ-
racy OF age that establishes a sort of
freemasonry among those who live in
certain time zones. Only those who
nave had approximately the same
number of birthdays know the pass
word, and can give the high sign that
makes them free OF the lodge, and all
of the especial pleasures and perqui-
sites that pertain to it, whether it be
youth, or middle age. or old age.
That is why the marriage of May
ana December almost never brings
happiness. They are different seasons
of the year that cannot be fused in
one.
1t is especially unfortunate for
man to marry a woman older than
himself, for as the years go by, the
disparity in age increases at a fright
fuI ratio because women age so much
more rapidly than men do. A woman
of thirty-five, for instance, who has
kept her figure. and who understands
the arts of the toilette, may not seem
such a terribly unsuitable match for
the man of twenty-five, but the man
of fortyfive is still a boy, while the
woman of fifty-five is an elderly lady.
and the man at fifty-five is Just in
the prime of life. while his sixty-five-
year-old wife looks like his mother.

THE BUILDING BOOM.

Building operations in cities of. the
Tenth Federal Reserve district
reached the high mark of the year in
April when a total of 1890 permits
were issued in nineteen cities for
building estimated to cost $S.6s9. 316,
according to the monthly bulletin is
sued by the bank at Kansas City.
The April record indicates an increase
of 4S.S per cent over the total build
ing in April, 1921, the percentage be-
ing computed on eighteen cities re-
porting for the month in both years.
AlthO new wage scales have not been
adopted in some cities, preparations
are eoing forward for more building
this year than at any other time since
the war period began. Topeka re-
ports an increase sof 1893 per cent
over april. 1921.
With regard to the general building
situation, S. w. Strauss g. Co. says:
mo adverse circumstances of any
consequence are affecting building
activities turnout the country. In
some places there are signs of a slight
slowing up due to shortage OF build
ing materials or lack of labor in some
essential trades. This situation has
not as yet developed seriously. and
building operations the country over
are moving along with unprecedented
magnitude"
The unrnistakabIe optimism existing
thruout the business world. it is point
ed out. is reflected in a tendency to-
ward increased construction of com
mercial types of buildings. AS the
country adjusts itself to the more ac-
tive business conditions that seem
likely to ensale from now on, it is ex-
pected there will be greater activity in
the construction of office buildings.
