New York, May >2s.-Each week
hundreds Of youths still in their

bers of steamship crews, bus boys,

Many Of them are from their homes

lonely runaways.

Little fun in THEN stop-overs here.
Beard sees that each liner is met by
a guide, that interpreters are fur

English and that protection is given
against sharks who would prey on
their ignorance of customs here.
Many boy has gone back to
Europe to introduce baseball in his

also arranges parties at movies and
a group of women cooperate by Civ

is highly appreciated by the English
lads. u. @

this because he once was sailor and
knows how tars in strange ports are

"The best part of it is that these

SIMILAR PROPORTIONS
THROUGHOUT COUNTRY

Throughout America, unless it be
in the extreme east, similar proper
tons obtain. 1t extends into the
high schools. A majority Of high
school pupils, and still larger ma
jority of those taking the cultural
courses, are everywhere girls.
We have long passed the stage Of
agitation for mere equal educational
opportunities for women. In fact,
we no longer even hope for equal
education of men.
The women have passed US, and
then distanced US, and the men are
scarcely "also ran" In a state like
California, the average of higher
education, among women less than
40 years old, is considerably larger
than among men, and among those
less IN 80, it is twice as large.
Other states may not quite have
reached this, but they are approach
ing it.
And these figures, of course, will
in few years apply to those under
SO, and then under 6O-in other
words, to the whole active genera
ton. We are on the verge of the
age when, though men may still
have the advantage in specialized
skill, women have more genera,
knowledge. broader perspective. a
better background, than men.

NOVELIST SEES GAIN IN
EARLY MARRIAGE
(From Gamers Weekly


The complex life of modern
times is gradually pushing back
the average age Of marriage.
I he attitude Of both men and
women toward marriage has
changed quite radically in late
years. Womcn no longer need to
marry as the only alternative to
dependent old age. They can sup.
polt themselves.
Parents want 70 see their chill
dren start off On. the same plane
of life reached By the parents,
themselves, only after half life.
time of struggle and self denial.
So marriage waits and this De
lay is proving more costly than we
These beliefs are held by Mrs.
Mary Roberts Rnehart, noted wo-
man author. Mrs. Rinehart talks
plainly to normal women who de
fer marriage because they feel in
dependent for the time being, at
least, or have their hearts set upon
making Career" for themselves,
holding the mistaken notion that q
career is out of the question after
marriage.
When the natural instinct of WO-
man is in conflict with acquired
taste, nature is almost sure to- win
in the end, Mrs, Rinehart asserts.
But by the time nature has won
its victory, golden opportunities
have slipped by in so many in
stances. No matter if it is ca
reer or other objective, the cost
is paid sooner or later whether or
not success is achieved.
Since the greatest pleasure in
winning success s to share it with
others, Mrs. Rinehart believes
most unmarried women pay too
high price for their success.
She cannot conceive Of any per,
sonal success being great enough
to remunerate q woman fer beng
alone in later life.
Time of marriages is determined
more by women than by men, Mrs.
Rineha t declares.
And because Of Woman's newly
acquired economic place as an
Garner, she is deferring marriage
without realizing the cost result
ing from the wild oats" sown by
the other sex due to retarded mar
riage.
When two persons decide to live
together the remainder Of their
lives it means a radical ieadjust-
ment for both. They must learn to
adapt themselves to this chanPed
condition, to compromise, to give
and take. as the price of happy
welded life.
This is much more easily accom-
plished in youth than amy time in
later life, for we become more
opinianated more strongly indl-
vidualistic, in short more SGT in
our ways with advancing age.
Mrs. Rinehart says she canno
imagine life without marriage,

in her own case, she would have
