Sally The stage-Struck Girl

Sally The Stage-Struck Girl c ALLY goes to the theatre as often
 as she can and more often than
 she can afford. She saves the programs and seat coupons. She re- members the name of every actor and actress she has ever seen. She remem- bers the detail of every play. She ini- tates her favorite actors and actresses in their big scenes and has a local neighborhood reputation for her ability along those lines. Her heart is wrapped up in the theatre.
 She is a type.
 She is Sally the Stage-Struck Girl.
 Sally's family discourages her, but Sally is determined. She takes part in amateur theatricals and reads all the theatre and movie magazines. The walls of her room are covered with pictures of every prominent star and she has been so bold as to white for au- tographs and photographs.
 Sally's first romantic success was achieved as little girl. She recited "Ba Ba Black Sheep Have You Any Wool" And ever since then, largely as a result of the applause her parents and relatives gave her, she has inclined to the dramatic. But now that Sally has grown up her family has been try ing to undo the damage they did when she was a child. Their opposition makes her miserable and just so much more determined.
 Nothing can sway or move Sally from

Answer i:

Answer:
 You certainly are an independent, self-supporting woman, Poor Soul, for if there is another human being on earth who earns his or her own board and keep, and good fat salary besides, it is the woman who does the never-ending labor of making a comfortable home. If your ungrateful daughters had to cook theifS own meals and make their own Beds and wash their own clothes in addition to earning their own Iiving-as many other girls do-they would realize how lucky they are to have a mother who,does all of this for them.

Answer:
 No. "Who can minister to. a mind diseased?" A woman's jeal. ousy of her husbands business is insanity because her welfare is wrapped up in it just as much as his is, and when she ruins him she ruins herself. Any sane person would see this for herself. When one doesn't it is because she is bereft of reason, and there is no use in arguing with her, or trying to get her to view the matter in its proper light.

clans seem very prone to this malady. young woman who was engaged to a doctor told me that it drove her crazy to think about her fiance going from one pink neglige-clad woman to an- other, holding their hands and listening sympathetically to their symptoms.
 "Well, then," told her, "at least be honest enough with the man not to marry him, if you feel that way. You know in advance what his profession is, and you have no right to interfere with his life work, or to torment him to death with your jealousy and sus- picions. And if you had any sense the more pink-negliged ladies he went to see, the better you would be pleased, for it means just that much more prosperity for you"
 Furthermore" I went on, "no other men in the world have so few illu- sions about women as doctors, because no other men see them under such dis advantages. A sick woman is at her worst, physically and mentally, and if you think there is anything aIluring about nervous, neurotic, hypochon- drical female, you have another guess coming your way. The wonder to me is that any doctor ever marries at all. would think that they would be off of the woman proposition for life"
 The young woman took my ad- vice and broke off her engagement with the physician, which saved one man from having his career wrecked by a jealous wife. And a 4 kl-A .RE ly, for she cannot only nag her hus- band until she destroys his eff ciency, but no woman wants to call in a physician who has a jeal- ous wife, because it is too dan gerous. There is no telling what unfounded scandal may start. DOROTHY DIX.
 Dear Dorothy Dix: What do you think of father who threatens to dis inherit his two sons if they marry while he lives? Both sons have found the girls. A DAILY READER. Answer:
 Why, think it sounds like ah old-fashioned melodrama. Disin- heriting sons because they won't marry to please stern parent simply 1Snt done now, and l think the sons would just laugh at fa- ther and go along and get married anyway.
 But any man who tries to keep his sons from marrying nice girls and living normal, domestic life is not only cruelty selfish, but lacking in good, hard common sense. For it is not the old bachelors who make the finest men, but the men who have wives and chill dren, somebody to work for and achieve for.
 Father married and had children that he loved enough to want to keep them for himself. Why does he want to deny his sons the same source of happiness? Why does he wish to impose his tyranny upon them so that they will look forward to his death as something that will free them from bondage? But at any rate, any man who doesn't think more of a girl than he does of his fathers will won't be much loss as a husband.

And, if they had to pay the price that any sort of competent cook and laundress and housemaid gets in these days, and settle the staggering bills that hired help runs up with its wasteful- ness and extravagance, they would realize that the mother who works for her food and a few clothes is no ob- ject of charity whom they generously support. They would find out that she saved for them a hundred times over. all that she costs them.

When oilcloth has been down for a few months and is losing its shiny surface, it can be renewed easily and made to last twice as long if treated in the following way: Melt q little ordinary glue in a pint of water, letting it stand on the top of the oven till dissolved. Wash the oil- cloth thoroughly and let it dry. Then at night, when the traffic of the day ceases, go over the whole carefully with flannel dipped in the glue water. Choose a fine day for it, and by morning the glue will be hard and will have put a gloss as good as new on your floor.

There is nothing more pitiful and nothing more reprehensible than the way so many daughters make unconsidered slaves of their mothers. In thousands of house. holds you will find mother doing all the house work, mother nurs- ing the children, mother making the clothes, mother doing the work that it would take half a. dozen . servants to do, and getting for it neither thanks nor pay. On the contrary, the very daughters who make an unappreciated drudge of mother talk about mother being a burden on them, and expect every body to throw bouquets at them for being so good and kind as to give mother a home.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-07-12

always wonder why such mothers as you are, Poor Soul, do not teach their daughters a good lesson. Why do you not throw up your unremunerative job in daughters kitchen and get one in somebody else's, where they will be only too glad to give you good money for do- ing work that you are now doing foyl lthing? There are thousands of 2 Age women who are longing for Just such household treasures as you are, and who would consider it a privi- lege to pay you a handsome salary for giving them good home cooking, and keeping down the grocery bill.
