Points Way
to Women
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

One of the most fascinating fig
ures of the feminine world today is
Nancy Aston, wife Of Viscount Wal
dorf Astor, herself a member OF
British parliament. What makes
her more interesting to US is that
she is an American girl and in her
person embodies all the qualities
that Americans love.
When one realizes her activities,
one is struck by the fact that this
woman, who has climbed to such
heights Of fame and made such an
impression upon our time, is the
mother Of six children.
Why do not more rich American
women have larger families? That
is a difficult question to answer.
Motherhood to wealthy women is
not a hard task, provided they are
in good health. One has, will say
the dissenter. the responsibility Of
bringing up children and that is
greater in the rearing of rich chill
dren than in mothering poor
brood

Win Him If You Can

You may spend a flock Of lonely
evenings until he notices that you
are not going out any more, but if
you win him, that won't matter
You see he has a certain idea of
you that you must change. And you
can not change that by talking
about it. You can not tell him one
night that you rather would sit
and talk with him than go out with
any other fellow and then be out
the next six nights.
You've got to show him you mean
business, that you are not just say
ing those things, that you actually
mean them. Luck to you. He's a
worthwhile somebody.

Her Greatest Reward

Nobody I am convinced, is more
bored than the average rich woman
and nobody gets less out of life.
Nancy Astor without her family
would not be Nancy Aston She has
made a dent in her world by her in
telligence. And the best evidence
Of that intelligence is the fact that,
while engaged in so many activities
that touch the lives of others, she
has not cheated herself out of hap
pinesS.
No matter what she may do, her
record of motherhood still will be
the greatest achievement OF her life,
and at its end will bring her the
greatest reward

Responsibility Is Needed

But what is life without bit Of
responsibility? Why exist without
a few duties that are percuIiarly
ones own? Why drag through the
days making on more impression
upon ones surroundings than a
shadow makes upon the grass?
The rich woman is able to have
her children with a minimum CT
suffering. She has the best medical
attention, the most excellent care,
ample leisure, and after childbirth
is able to employ many servants to
relieve her of any manual labor so
far as her babies are concerned.
She alone is situated SO that she
can be real mother, because
mothering is the only actual task
she has to do.
That child-bearing ages a woman
and ruins her figure and prevents
her from having fun is the most
ridiculous Of fallacies. 1t is refuted
by the thousands Of mothers who
are strong, active, and happy in
middle life and who look twice as
young as those who have spent their
time in keeping youthful and elud-
ing the StOrk

Change Your
Ways, AdUiCe
to PnS2Ied
BY MARTHA LEE

Many women write in that they
are in love with certain men who
never as much as cast a stray glance
in their direction. never give them
a civil good morning, and from the
letters most certainly have no idea
that they are the objects Of so much
unrequited affection.
Other girls send out plea Of
what shall I do?" because boys
who have caught their fancies are
merely friends. are totally unaware
Of the fact that the friendship, at
least on the one side. has become
metamorphosed into love.
And Of course they all want to
know how they can attract the at
tentions of these men and boys.
How they can make them realize
they love them without over-step-
ping the bounds of feminine pride
and prODriety?

PUZZLED.
1t was a long story, but, as you
say, it all bears upon the last ques-
ton most pertinently. The answer
is easy enough. You've got to cut
the playing around out right now,
in the hope that he will notice.
Since you are such good friends,
it would be perfectly all right for
you to invite him and his mother

with him again.
But the joke was on me. He had some
one else. Somehow I did not feel as
badly rs I expected. I guess my first
bunch was right, that really did not
love him. and that my sending for him
was merely a desire to see an old friend.
Now. after all this tedious history I
come to the real problem. I have told

ROUND-U
OF PONIES
Annual Affair at Chincoteague,
Va, viii Attract Large
Group of Tourists

Plans for the roundup Of Wild
ponies on the Island Of Chincoteague,
Va, are being made, it was learned
today. This is an annual affair and
hundreds OF visitors flock to the
island and to other nearby islands
to watch the roundup OF the four
legged speedsters.
Chincoteague is probably one of
the best known ocean fishing re.
sorts in America. Numerous salt
water game fish lurk in the waters
off shore. ami fishermen from all
up and down the Atlantic coast visit
the little city for days of sport.
Fishing boats and launches for
those who wish to catch real fish,
that strike with a rush and then
put up strong gamey fight, are
plentiful. Food and accommoda-
tions are as nearly perfect as posi-
BILE, and running through the entira
colony is the strain of Old Virginia
that has endeared itself to visitors.

Development of Rayside City
Discussed by New
Owners

Chesapeake Beach is to be de-
yeloped as an all-the-year-around
bay resort and permanent resi-

plans devised by the new manage.
ment of the Chesapeake Beach
Railway Company. The railroad
and amusement resort have just
been acquired by a California syndi-
cate headed by George Detrick.
retired president of the Sacramento
Northern Railroad.
Plans for building bayside city
at the beach were discussed today
by Col. Lee H. Lands, assistant to
the president of the railroad, who
Is in charge Of operations.
Cites Atlantic City Example
Ultimate identification of the
road is a possibility, Colonel Lands
intimated, but this will have to
await growth Of the bayside city.
Atlantic City once was just a
summer resort" Colonel Lands
commented. Then the season was
heightened by the introduction of
Eastertide festivities. Now 1t has
developed into an all.the-year.
around resort and residential city.
The same, on a smaller scale, is
possible with Chesapeake Beach.
Washington is expanding so
rapidly that the people constantly
are going farther and farther out
into the suburbs for the establish.
ment of their homes. Distances
that once seemed prohibitive now
are made entirely feasible by more
rapid transportation facilities. There
is also a demand on a large part
Of the population for homes as near
as possible to the water, where sea
side pleasures may be enjoyed and
where there are cool breezes during
the hot summer days.
Committing Feasible
Chesapeake Beach offers an ex
cellent spot for Washingtonians
seeking home sites. Frequent train
service makes committing to office
entirely feasible. The beach already
has developed as large summer
colony and many of these home
owners are beginning to make their
permanent all.the-year-around resi-
dences at the resort, This tendency
is bound to grow.
"Electrification of the road al
present is out Of the question be
cause of the enormous initial cos
and because most of the railroads

months. But as more and more
permanent residences are estab
lished, as the demand for building
materials and supplies grows, al

Visitors

Betterton, Nd, is rapidly gaining
as a summer resort. Fishing, boat
ing, bathing, dancing and bowling
are all included in the many things
that can be done by the summer
visitor.
Betterton is a picturesque town
located on the eastern shore OF Mary
land where the Elk, Northeast,
Sassafras and Susquehanna rivers
unite to form the Chesapeake Bay.
1t is widely known az a vacation
ground.
The visitor to the town is afforded
both rest and recreation in simple
surroundings and there is sufficient
refinement to please the most fas-
tidious.
Among the good hotels at the town
is the Maryland, where dinners typi-
cal Of the Eastern Shore are served.
There are a number of churches
also. The hamlet is five mils from
the railroad but has bus connec.
tions. 1t is a stop on several
steamer lines.

FIND PUBLICITY
PROFITABLEIy
VIRGINIA
Advertising Has Brought
Crowds to Summer
Resorts

State and local chambers Of
commerce of Maryland and vir-
ginia have decided, after trial Of
several years, that advertising their
beach towns as summer resorts
pays.
It is understood that their cam
paigns will extend to all parts Of
the country. 1t has been pointed
out that the summer resorts about
Washington are all fairly high
class. They appeal to the average
person who want, to swim, fish
and play for several weeks.
Probably the best example of
what publicity win do for city
is found in Norfolk. There a
publicity bureau is maintained the
year round. They tell of the
merits of nearby beaches, hotels,
summer colonies, and the wonder
ful fishing. The publicity is world
wide. An advertisement Of a Vir-
ginia Beach summer hotel in a
European paper is often found.
All of the publicity bureaus now
maintained are booming, according
to reports and will soon be in
creased
