tVinnyred Harper Cooley Talks
About Young Mems Temptations

Of lifc's vital questions. rather tnan
from strong. noble character.
The boy of ideals and self control is
between the devil and the deep sea
A REFINED young man refuses to
"A associate with women of the town.
Yet his emotions are strong.
If he is normal, Of course he wants
to marry. But one does not always
discover ones ideal and lifemate In the
early twcntics.
Then there Is the terrible economic
problem.
In the old days. when John decided
to marry Ellen. his father bought him
the adjoining farm. or they went to Hive
with her folks. Few compIicntions
arose. so long rs he could grow enough
for them to eat As the children cane
they we're looked after by grandmother.
who was "shrlvcd' as early as forty.
The older children helped take care OF
the babies. and often laborcd hard with
chores and farmwork, and we're self.
supporting at twelve.
Today the boy simply must have some
higher education. or n trade. or an APP
premiership in m industry. ltc sees
that his companions who married young
often are handicapped So severely in the
money hc'd that their careers are
ruined. Then. too. he hestates to ask
girl to suffer actual privations. ami
do hard domestic work. and be deprived
of little Injuries. 1t is impossible TO
marry sometimes until he is thirty or
older.
In the meantime. he longs for love,
and the companionsiip of women. What
shall he do to fill that need in his na-
turc?
COMETIMES he is fortunate enough
~ to know some tactful. charming
woman little older. some young widow
who has home. and in whose society
hc finds sympathy and tattcry and
kindly counsel Sometimes he Is so
filled with ambition and enthusiasm for
his work that he labOrs many hours
daily. and is 80 busy and weary that he
forgcts the loneliness and longing. II
NAV be that athletics and clubs give
him n pleasant outside diversion. But
after all. society must reckon on the
necessity for marriage before youth has
passed. and economic conditions must BE-
adjusted so that happy love and mating
will BE- possible. before sin and cynicisin
warp the young man who honestly tries
to overcome the gross temptations.

Anne and Emma had known Muriel
long before her marriage, and had suf-
fercd together over her incurable lack
of neatness.
Muriel never could make her hair
stay inside a net. Everybody else
managed to, but Muriel always got hers
around the back Of her head somehow,

cially made, fell down IN detected
strings over her face.
Her collar always seemed to get
rumpled on her way from her room

She was thoroughly dlscouraging In
her complete disregard for and indif-

AFRICA NOT DARK
CONTINENT, BUT
misunderstood

NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.-(Cru-
sader Service AFTER a ten months
intensive study of the hyRienic, eco
nomic, social and religious condition
OF the native African, an international
commission OF experts IN educational
and missionary work has reached the
conclusion that Africa IS the Cont
nent OF Great Misunderstanding
rather than the Dark Continent" and
that the country's vast potential
strength raw materials and the
progress OF its native peoples should
be emphasized instead OF its interior
jungles and alleged savagery. The re-
port OF the commission has been pub
lished by the Phclps-Stokes Fund.
Sevcnty-hve photographs and maps
arc used as illustrations.
The report says: "Of the many
misconceptions that still tend to limit
the investment OF capital in African
industry and agriculture. to hamper
the efforts OF Colonial governments
and discourage the support OF mis-
sions, there are four OF such impor-
lance as to require consideration in
any effort to evaluate the educational
possibilities. The first OF those mis-
understandings relates to the wealth
OF resources and natural scenery; the
second is concerned with the health
fulness of the continent and the prom
ising possibilities OF sanitary improve
ment; the third has to do with the i'm
PROBABILITY OF the African people, the
fourth with European and American
influences"
The report then proceeds to tell OF
the vast wealth OF Africa, its diamond
mines, gold fields, etc, and OF the
healthy climate in many parts Of the
continent where tie effect OF attitude
has neutralizcd that OF latitude and the
result is a climate as healthy as any
European or American climate rgen
in the lower levels, the report says,
sanitary measures can eliminate un-
healthfulness. As to the improyability
OF the Africans. the report stresses
that natives occupy responsible posi-
tons in every colony visited by the
commission and tells OF the large num-
Der OF physicians, lawyers and other
professional and technical men who
have successfully completed the re-
quirements OF the leading European
universities.
