~ FORGE Dixon came in his csr Y for Marian at 9 o'clock that night.
 The girl did not tell her sister good- bye. There was no use in arousing Lois resentment by mentioning again the plan for the evening. But Marian did stop in her fathers room long enough to remark to Mrs. Fisher that she was going out and would return by II o'clock
 II will look in then and see that hs is all right she added with a glance toward the bed.
 He will be all right-don't you worry" the attendant assured her. Lois was in her own room reading. She avoided the lower part of the house unless she had someone there with her. Marian wondered at the at. | titude of mind that made her sister | afraid of solitary spaces and of new. experiences.
 Tt is well I am not like Lois.' she remarked to George Dixon when the pair were together in the car. '-She is so timid that she would die sooner than take the chance l am taking tonight" Il am sure you will win out" her companion declared. II had a talk with De Lisle before I called for you"
 "Oh." Marian gasped. Did you? ?- 7 Yes. As you know. he spoke to me about you the first time I went to his joint after you had been there. He asked me to bring you again. and to. coax you to dance with him-for his patrons
 II know" the girl interrupted inn patiently. You have told me all that before. And that is why I am on my way there now. Why go over it all, again?'
 Don't be cross." George warned her. 'I am going over it again just to ex- plain why I felt justified in calling on him an hour ago. It seemed to me it might be well to drop hint that you might be persuaded to take an engage ment somewhere. Of course I did not say that he could secure you7-only ip- timated that others besides himself were keeping an eye on you. and that if he wanted you he would have to speak quickly"

married so that they can have more fun and that they should be equally indulgent to each others side-step- ping.
 It seems to me that you have got the wrong idea of marriage Marriage isn't It isn't two-step or nO-step. It ism a filtration. It isn't any fun.
 Marriage is a settling down. It is the accepting of great responsibility. It is the beginning of the serious business of life, and no man and woman have right to enter into it until they have had their fling, until they have had enough of philander- ing, until they are ready to begin soberly and Good fcaringly their life work.
 When you are eighteen you are not young for this. You are still mad fol pleasure. Your feet ache to dance You want to run with the gang ana have all the fun that is going. And that is why boy and girl marriages are al most invariably failure. The young nave tdhtu lHeuSSINPs that are top heavy for their strength They want to have the fun that other boys and girls are having. and they are tied down with the responsibilities of matrimony. Inevitably they are dis contented and unhappy, and they fight until their romance is shattered and their home broken up.
 So don't marry on a ffty-hfty basis. or any other basis, while you are eighteen, son. Wait until you are twenty-five And don't marry even then seeking fun. There are lots of curious things about matri- mony, but they are not amusing.
 DOROTHY DIX,
 Dear Dorothy Dix-I am a very un happy girl because I cannot decide be tween three men, each of whom loves m, and each of whom I love to a cer tain extent.
 One of them is my ideal man, only he is insanely jealous, and I am afraid to marry him because l fear he vii make life miserable with his unfounded suspicious.
 The second one is good, honest hard-working man, but he is a widower and I am afraid to marry him lest he throw his first wife up to me and tel me how much better housekeeper she was than am.
 The third one is q sheik- looking youth who is a jazz hound, but it seems tc me that he lacks pep, and I am afraid I would starve to death if I married him.
 Which one would you take?
 A FOOL.
 Answer: I'd take the widower. A good, honest, hard-working, house. broken widower is preferred risk in matrimony. Never mind about the first wife. It's the No. 2 wife who has the spending of all the none! that No. worked herself to death

Potash And Perlmutter Takes
 Rank With Greatest Of Screen

Once in a while this reviewer sees picture that made him want to throw his hat into the air and shout, exuberantly: Hurry" On some oc- casions he has found it difficult to re- sist the impulse to act thusly, and one of those occasions came last night at the Trianon theatre, .whree Potash and Perlmutter," First National pie ture, began a ...- engagement.
 Potash and Perlmutter'' at the Tri- anon is e sparkling gem of humor and pathos, a photoplay that will take rank with the greatest pictures within mem Ory. It is a picture that makes you ask yourself: What would we do without the movies?'' And the only answer is q shudder.
 For fear that the writer may be con- sidered unduly enthusiastic, he hastens to add that the audience yesterday agreed unanimously. There was one continuous, roar of laughter, now a happy ripple, now a tremendous cres- condo.
 But there is much more than mere ly humOr in the picture. It is a human story all the way through, and interspersed among the laughs are pa- thetic sequences which quickly stifle the grins and all but bring tears to the eyes.
 A picture which can achieve such results is not produced by some streak of fortune. It must possess a back ground of talent, and in this respect Potash and Perlmutter" is not lack ing in a single respect.
