Which to Choose

Dear Martha Lee: ] am in my last
teens and going with a fellow steady who
loves me dearly | do not care for him
in that way at all. but i do care for
another fellow, only he does not care for
me.
Now shall ] go ahead and try to forget
this one l care for and marry the one that
cares for me? PUZZLED DOROTHY.
Certainly do not marry man
simply because he cares for you.
That may seem the kind thing to do,
but it is really very cruel as he
would be miserable when he realized
your indifference.
I should think it only fair to ex-
plain to him that you simply like
him. AS for the other one, if it gives
you uneasiness to be in his company,
having a fondness for him that he
does not return try to keep away
from him. Perhaps you can. forget
him.

HEARTBROKEN WIFE AND MOTHER
Certainly nothing would be gained
by your leaving your husband. Your
child will need her father and there
is every reason why you should work
to blot out this affair from your
memory.
AS your husband readily gave up
the woman, his intentions for the
future must be good So-encourage
and help him to not fall into such
a situation again. If you act ag-
grieved and unhappy, you may drive
him back to her.

Men Demand.
Too Much of
Their Mates
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

In this age of specialization, it is
strange what men expect of their
wives. The rest of the populace can
fit themselves for one certain voca-
ton and the more ardently they
labor to become efficient in only one
line of work, the more generally they
are admired.
But with the average wife, what
do we find? Certainly not such an
easy thing as specializing. The men
expect us to be everything rolled into
one. Perfect mothers, perfect mis-
tresses, perfect housekeepers. perfect
cooks, perfect society women.
The economic value of a good
mother is inestimable, but how many
men are there who do not complain
if they see their wives working at
this important job? When the baby
comes, they don't get enough atten-
ton. a good cook is a valuable as
set to any husband, but does he give
her any proper credit when she puts
into practice this talent? No. He
expects her to be an equally good
chauffeur. a neat and economical
housekeeper costs lots of money
when you are not married to her,
but does this type of woman get
credit for her skill? Very seldom.
The chances are that her husband
wants her to be a bridge expert and
good cocktail mixer.
Too Many Jobs
The women Of this country are
becoming nervous wrecks, not be-
cause they work too hard, but be-
cause they are trying to do too many
things. Their ambitions outstrip
their physical strength.
And not only that, but they are
forever being told that if they do
not keep themselves we'll groomed
and slender and lovely, their hus-
bands and lovers will go scouting
after some other woman who is.
They are panic stricken because
NAA eiAt ilAdhAAAb a AAl4oAdht ny llOA
, assuming some of the coyness of
the professional courtesan so as to
hold their husbands, or by not going
out for social notice. or by failing
to vote in the city elections.
What Men Expect
We don't do anything veryI we'll
because we try so hard to live up
to what the men expect of us. which
is to be paragons of every virtue
and wizards at every job.
It's high time that the men We're
realizing that they can't expect their
dishwasher and scrubwoman to be
, a perfect mistress with the arts of a
Du Barry. We can't have babies
and preserve our sylphlille figures.
We can't look after the children
properly and stay up all night at
parties. We can't be Aspasias, Pene-
lopes. Cornellas and Pompadours at
one and the same time.

Women May
Learn Vote
Value First

The National League Of Women
Voters is planning to educate its
members in intelligent voting.
All over the country women are
making feeble efforts to understand
something about politics. Slowly,
but surely the movement is growing,
We are at least making start.
A better start, indeed, than the men
have since 1875.
For after the male has formed his
Young Mems Democratic League
and similar organizations, he figures
Z he has done everything necessary.
The idea of teaching his son in.
telligent facts about politics does not
occur to the average father. He be-
lieves intelligent voting means stick
ing by the party ticket. When a
Republican has voted for a Coolidge,
he believes he has exercised not
only his rightful privilege, but his
brains.
Just before election there are al
ways cries of how citizens neglect to
vote. But is there much sense in
voting if we persist in voting our
prejudices instead of our intelli-
gence?
England's idea of not allowing
women under 80 to vote is not half
bad. Any country would be better
off if nobody voted before they were
80. The intervening years between
21 and 80 might will be used in
studying men and principles.
What does STRIPPING of Fl know
about the needs Of his country? And
just because enthusiasts argue that
a girl can make her living at 81, is
no reason to believe that she is en-
dowed with speciau political knowl-
edge.
OF course, the ballot is the indi-
viduals citizenship right, but then
the country ought to be considered.
Just because everybody can rush out
and vote is no reason to expect a
Utopia. Experience has demon
strated that the result is far differ
ent. There is a great deal to learn
about this subject, and the chances
are that the women will learn first.
And when they do, Heaven help the
denagogues.

my brother to have more confidence in
himself. He is ~, and l am 22 and he
depends a good deal upon what l say. lie
is Just setting hold in the business
world but it troubles me that he does not
think much of his chances.
He is somewhat pessimistic and con
stantly says you can't expect to get ahead
unless you have a pull or are lucky. ! do
not feel that he is right. but perhaps
don't know. Do you believe in luck and
that it Is most important:
MADELINE L. r.
There are few extremely success
full men I car recall who entirely ig-
more the part that luck has at some
time played in their affairs, but this
explains only a part of their climb
of course.
~ "Pull' helps to place folks many
times, but it can't put brains where
there aren't any, so the effect of a
pull is not far reaching.

Folks Dislike Him

Dear Martha Lee: l am girl 10 and
! go with young man who is 81 We
love each other dearly but my folks do
not like him.
/ have gone with him for a long time
and he has asked me to be his wife. Shall
] listen to my, folks or shall / stick with
him because love him? +. r. B.
AS you mention no particular fault
of the young man, take it that your
folks simply do not care for his per-
sonality. Their thoughts of him,
based on nothing but prejudice,
should not weigh in this case.
All other things being equal, and if
he is able to support you, it would
seem there is no good reason, as you
love each other, why you should not
marry.
