something went out of me. dear. some
thing went out of my love that was

What would you do, Leslie. II you
were married to a man whom you

What would you do, dear?''
"I wouldn't live with him a min

odd Woman at 10

Dear Miss Lee: When I was IA years old
began to keep company with boys. About
one year later l met fellow and kept COM
pany with him for a year and half AT
that age. girls don't know much about love-
but 1 thought did.
We would have married, but this fellow
had four years of college before him and l
had two years OF high school, so we decided
20 wait Now l realize that I saved myself
a lot of heartacheS and sorrow, for did not
love him at all. But now l am Is and feel
like an old woman. when I should be having
the good times 1 had when I was so young.
/ have been keeping company for eight
months with a fellow of 90 and We love each
other very much. Do you think the differ
ence in our ages is too much to keep us from
marrying. He has some common sense -
but does not act nor talk according 10 his age.
TOOTSEY.
Too bad you grew up too soon. But
it is too late for regrets, and you are
fortunate, indeed, not to have gone
ahead with this foolish marriage.
Women. as a rule, mature sooner
than men, so that ten years is not
usually too great a difference in ages
to prevent happiness in marriage. Be
very sure of sour love. however You
still are young for marriage. in my
opinion.

Field Malone, formerly Doris Stew

American women have the
chance to fight out the problem Of
the double standard of morality and
to demand equality in love and mar

continued. because they live in a

Mrs. Malone has an unusual OPP

I asked her how she reconciled
Americas high divorce rate with
her statements.
People often point to the high
divorce rate as an indication that
America is becoming morally weak"
she replied.
ION the contrary. 1 believe this is
an indication that Americans really
take their marriage laws seriously
and that they do not sanction or
want the promiscuity that is COM

other countries.
Not that 1 believe divorce is a
solution of the difficulties of mar

Is that Peggy Ann takes her little
savings deposit book up to the win
dow and let's the man at the win
dow red ink the amount Of pen
MES that her meager savings have
earned, yes actually earned for her.
This Job of saving Is hard one
for the most of us, for there is
such a constant temptation to
spend the money for some cher
1shed article. But Miss Fischer
of the Meyer-Kiser Bank has
helped solve the problem, for she
advised Peggy Ann to take out

depositing her check and put this

She has jumped from childhood to

hood intervening. Boys, to her, are
not the pals Of the normal IA or 15-
year-old girl, but are company" to
be thought of only in terms of the
popularity they indicate.
Because her social career started so
early, she finds it tagging and losing
the thrill" she expected.
Besides, late hours and lack of
sleep are beginning to tell, in lassi-
tude that is far from normal. She is
tired physically and spiritually True
love can give her renewed interest in
life, but it cannot restore the girlhood
she threw away.

MASSAGE

m ri ASSAGE may be called a body
IWEI or skin and nerve tonic. 1t in
G vigorates the body without the
usual doping of any tonal medicines
In many so-called nervous troubles
it does great aid with very little ex-
haustion to the central nervous sys-
tenn. Massage also aids metabolism
the chemical process Of repair and
waste in the body and does much
toward muscle development. 1t Is
particularly an aid to the facial mus
cles, which receive little or no excr-
else. These may be stimulated, round
ed out and the face contour improved
by massage. The abdominal muscles
are frightened up, aided and strength
ened by massage. while the great
muscles of the back and shoulders
may be developed and improved by
this treatment.
am not advocating any special
form or system of massage as treat
ment for anything. The question at
issue is the value of massage or skill
full rubbing or kneading Of the outer
skin or muscles toward an improve
ment. fexibility and soothing condi-
ton of the body as a general help on
the high road to health.
OF course massage is only a natural,
simple process to encourage the cir
culation. Free or increased circula-
ton means more blood. More blood
means better supply to the tissues
and cells which in many persons are
little used and consequently not fully
developed A blood renewal through
massage produces a healthy normal
tone which the muscles ands nerve
system share in the general toning-
up process.

you buy, a woman asked me yes
terday and l told her that 1 had
already bought a Brunswick and
if I had 1t to do over 1 should do
exactly the same thing. Every
day that I have owned my Bruins
wick I have felt a greater ad-
miration for the machine itself and
a deeper pleasure in its possession
There is nothing mechanical about
the sweet tones of a Brunswick
the oval wood amplif1er is re-
sponsible for this. Then any kind
of a record can be played on a
runswick-another advantage.
1t matters little whether you
want sacred. classical. ballad or
popular dance music. you will find
records to suit your need and also
to please you for they are put out
by the best artists in their par
ticular line.
Just as told this woman, if you
are contemplating the purchase OF
a photograph. be sure to visit the
Baldwin Piano Company, and
ask to see their beautiful models
and to have them demonstrated.
Remember you will be able to find
Brunswick that will harmonic
