DR, AND MRS. PARTLOW ENTERTAIN,INsTUSCALOOSA

The Birmingham friends of Dr. and Mrs. William D. Partlow will be in terested in the following clipping from the Tuscaloosa News. Mrs. PartloW will he remembered as lovely Margaret Nixon. who lived in this city during her girlhood:
 sThe mothers and wives of the mem bers of the Delta Kappa Epsilon 1ra- ternity who came to Tuscaloosa from every section of Alabama for the bril- liant reception which these college men gave in their honor Friday afternoon. afforded happy inspiration for one or the most elaborate courtesies of the sea son on Friday evening when at o'clock Dr. and Mrs. William Dempsey Part low entertained in their home on the hospital lawn.
 "This spacious abode has just been remodeled and is one of the lovellest places in the city for entertaining. The apartments of the lower floor were open. ed to the guests on this occasion and hundreds of flowers added brightness.
 "In the living room white chrysan- themums filled silver standards while the dining room was exquisite in the fraternity colors. Dozens of golden hued chrysanthemums filled brass bas- ket on the table, yellow candles burned in silver sticks tied with azure tulle and broad crimson satin ribbon was com bined in lending attraction to the bas- kets of yellow chrysanthemums massed on the buffet and serving table. In the library, baskets of old-fashloned flowers were everywhere placed by an artist hand, and the music room was abloom with gold and white chrysanthe, mums. fringed with plumosa fern and thrust into silver standards.
 'Seyenty-five guests shared in the pleasures of this evening with Dr. and Mrs. Parlow."

I object to the wearing of mourning because the custom works a great hardship on the poor. Peo- ple of small means cannot afford to throw away their ordinary clothes, and buy an entirely new outfit of black, and I have known many families who absolutely had to starve themselves for a year afterward to pay for the mourning

garments that they thought custom demanded of them.

We are coming to look at this mat ter very much more sensibly. During the war few people put on black when they lost their loved ones because of the effect it would have on the morale of the general public, and since then it has become matter of individual in clination. It is no longer thought to show disrespect to the dead for mem bers of family to refrain from wear ing black, and you never see the ''weapers" under which women used to stagger about.

Every woman in mourning reopens the wound of an old grief in the soul of every human being who cees her, be- cause she brings back to them the mem cry of the hour when they, too, first donned the livery of woe.

But however 1t is, the story of the prodigal son is eternally true. It is always the bad children for whom par ents slay the fatted calf, while there is never veal chop for the children who stay at home, do their duty, and com fort and take care of the old people.

You would want her to be a good cook and a thrifty house. keeper and fireside companion. And because she was none of these you would be in a continual wrangle with her. You would be in a perpetual argument with her over the money she wasted and the way she spent her time. You would get peeved with her be- cause she was always gadding around and there would be no peace nor comfort in your home. You would be more green-eyed thai your poor old liver makes you now

A GIFT FOR A BRIDE

One of the loveliest and most unusual toilet sets is made of tortoise shell com bined with etched silver.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-11

When those we love die, we. are face to face with a tragedy we must endure as best we can. No ears, no agony of grief, will bring them back to us. We must take up our lives and go on. But this is harder to do if we keep the insignia of sorrow continually before our eyes. The woman who swathes herself in black cannot forget her bereavement even for moment, nor can any cheer come into a household full of black-robed wom- en. God sends sunshine after rain, and He means us to smile after tears, and so I think we help along this healing process if we do not dress our broken hearts in somber colors.

Why, man, you would bore her to death with your "reminiscences She thinks that your ideals are simply moss grown antiquities. Her idea of spend ing pleasant evening would not be to sit at home, and hear you discuss your symptoms, but to go out to some place where they have good jazz music and dance with boys young enough to be your grandsons.
 And she would bore you just as much as you would bore her. She would get on your nerves just as much as you would get on hers, for you would soon get tired of gazing upon her pretty young face, and you would want her to be something more than living pie ture.

Answer: My dear MT. John, if don't take the widow you will give another and convincing proof of the old adage that there is no fool like an old fool.
 Your common sense, as well as your observation, must tell you that youth and age have nothing in common. Have the courage to face the facts, and ask yourself what any young girl could find to interest her in a man of sixty, or why she would want to give up the pleasure of her time of life to nurse an enderly dyseptic?

 On the other hand, the widow has nothing to gain by marrying you except companionship. She would be interested in the same things in which you are interested. She would enjoy talking over old times. She would have the same tastes and habits that you. have because you belong in the same generation. And she would know how to take care of you and pamper you, and make your last days your happiest ones.
 Marry the widow. Widows are always preferred matrimonial risk.

Answer: Personally, I am very much opposed to it. I am opposed to it for many reasons. First, because of the depressing effect it has upon the be- reaved and all who come in coniact with them.

Answer: I don't know, Ethel. Perhaps it is some divine pity that makes parents more tender to the erring son or daughter than they are to the righteous ones. Perhaps to them the sons and daughters who weak in character and who lack the gift to fight the world are always like little children they feel they must shelter and care for, while they know that their effici- ent, strong children can look out for themselves.
 Perhaps the boy who will not work and who goes off vacationing and the girl who is pretty and lazy and pleasure-loving, represents some secret desire that their father
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-11

Dear Miss Dix-Why do parents show so little respect for their chil- dren who are good and kind to them, and who treat them beautifully? Why is the black sheep nearly always treated better and with more affection than is the faithful son or daughter who has put forth every effort to help and com fort his father and mother? In almost every family there is some lazy, shift less neer-do-well whom the parents feel that the industrious sisters and broth CTS should support, and to whom the mother gives the money which the other children make. And if there is prop erty, it is nearly always the prodigal ore who gets the lions share. Why is this? ETHEL.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-11

Dear Miss Dix-My son died recent ly. He was one of the best who ever lived, and he left an ache in my heart which has never ceased to throb, but he did not wish me to put on mourning and I have not done so. What do you think about wearing mourning?
