ADVICE TO THE
LOVELORN
BY Beatrice Fairfax
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

nEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Has a woman any chance
of happiness in marrying a man
eleven years her Junior? He Is
twenty-five. Both are deeply in
love with each other.
W. w.
SOMETIMES such marriages
bring happiness. But ordi-
narily a youth of twenty-five Is
not mature enough to keep pace
with a woman Of thirty-six, and
as he develops he seeks youthful
companions and their greater con-
geniality. If there are no other
barriers and a few years Of hap
piness seem worth the risk, then
perhaps it will be worth while,
but it is not likely to work out
we'll or to yield lasting happiness
The Washington times., 1923-08-11

wv HY will half dozen thir-
" teen-year-old boys ride
w their bicycles ten miles in
the boiling sun, sleep for two
nights on the pebbly sand dunes,
eat pickles and dusty sandwiches
for their meals, drink warm, stale
water from a brook, get blistered
with sunburn, and finally come
back to their city home on the
third day stiff, tired, sweaty and
happy?
Why will boys rush off to TIE
foregoing dirty, -dingy situation,
passing by a beautiful expansive
park. turning from the crowd at
the clean bathing beach, forgetting
the thrill of the movies and the
lure and loud hurrah of the base
ball diamond? It is easier to ask
these questions than it is to answer
them.
I have just been an interested
witness to the event sketched
above. The boys passed my car
in tandem file. With a camping
outfit strapped to the rear of each
bicycle, they bent low and spun
along the rcurbing. At my call
they stopped in shade and eager
ly related the incidents Of their
outing, justifying what seemed to
me tough, tiresome job with the
statements:
Because it's more fun"
I'VE wanted to get away from
people"
Its a way to do as you please"
"You don't have some one boss
ing you all the time"
you don't have to keep clean
and all dressed up"
1.-The grub tastes better and you
can sleep as late as you please"
My point is that parents are
prone to overlook the primitive
dispositions and the elemental
barbarism which for a brief time
function normally in the life Of a
boy. The first duty to the boy
himself is to recognize his right
to feel and to act as he now does;
and the second duty regarding
him is to make it possible for
him briefly to exploit the transient
savagery in his awakening per-
sonality.
1t is just as reasonable and quite
as helpful to his character to plan
a frequent care-frae outing as it
is to tie himself down to his read
ing course. You should attend 20
both. And, while / have the high
est regard for the Boy Scouts and
their splendid. system of exercises,
there is all the time a tendency to
make that too formal and too
mechanical.
To. get away where no adult eye
can see them, no paternal ear hear
them. no academic rule affect them,
no police regulations stop them,
no social finery restrain them-to
get away alone and for the time
become wild and unrestrained and
natural, Is a soul tonic which
should be ministered to your thir-
teen-year-old son at least once or
twice per year.

AS I began to speak, Park stood

down into a chair and sat star

he got to his feet.

Before I could say another
word, he turned and rushed out of
the office. I dared not lift a
finger to stop him. But the mo-
ment he was gone, I telephoned
Ralph Lacy's office. He was not
there, however, and Jerry. his
faithful office boy, reminded me
