SaUing for
AgeL
ofParentS
ny MARTHA LEE


The plight of parents who have
no means of self support and no
income Of their own after they have
: become old and have grown chill
dren is one of the saddest, not only
for them but for the children.
No matter how much children
love their parents, no matter how
much gratitude they feel for all they
have done for them, it is not al
ways convenient, nor best for them
to make their homes with the
children.
The parents may be kindness
itself, they may have every intention
Of bringing only happiness to their
children, but very often a mother
or father in the home Of their mar
ried children can cause no end Of
trouble and unhapp.ness.
Children Gain Poise
That is why every parent is en-
titled, after the children have grown
and can support themselves, to pro-
vide and save for old age
In the first place, it Is good for
children to be brought up self
supporting and self sufficient. 1t
gives them a poise that can not be
had any other way. 1t gives them
self confidence: 1t gives them a
sense Of value Of things every child
should have.
It teaches them to be thrifty and
saving. It is marvellous training for
young girls and boys who expect to
be husbands and wives, fathers and
mothers.
Resents Parents Attitude
A girl who resents her parents
attitude toward the question of self
support has written.
Dear Miss Lee-I am in a sad predica-
ment. I am almost IS and I have a
sister Al. We both are staying at home
but my mother is leaving to 20 on a
long business trip with nv father.
My father is making good money bus
mother said nv sister and I would have
to keep UP the expenses of the home
while they are gone.
We simply can not afford to do this as
We are not making enough money. She
said IL we could not. We had better find
rooms elsewhere while they are gone as
they want TO save some money They say
since we are Of age it isn't necessary for
them to keep US. ...
Unfortunately I have no man in view.
What can we do. Do YOU think my
mother really can care for us and take
this attltude7 j.
I think your mother IS a wise
woman. They are approaching an
age where your fathers earning
power is bound to dwindle. They
must provide for this.
Man Is meal Ticket"
If you have positions, steady
income each week, it would be good
for both of you to live on budget,
TO be completely dependent upon
yourselves for a while. ~na
The reason you have no man in
view is very obvious. Apparently
a man in view" is a meal ticket
and a chance to quit work to you.
No matter how carefully you hide
this from man he can, sense it
quickly enough and Wild horses
wouldn't drag him in your direc-
ton.
You have a poor attitude about
life and people all around. When
you change it you probably will
have better luck.

THE first two opening throws
Il often decide the general policy
to be followed throughout the game.
There are three distinct policies of
play, each of which will be con-
sidered in turn.
The simplest of these is called the
running game. 1t should be adopted
whenever the opening throws are
such that the two men are safely
OUT of the opponents inner table
early in the game.
Hurry all men around the board
to the home table as quickly and
safely. as possible. Exercise great
care in exposing blotS, since all adj
vantage is lost if a man is hit and
returned to the, opponents home
table. t,c
If ahead of the opponent, that
is, if the opponents men have a
longer distance to travel refuse to
hit any of his blots. These men
would merely be an embarrassment
and make it more difficult to get
into the home table and the men
safely borne off.
More than three of the opponents
men in the inner table make it
possible for him to block two points,
which makes it most difficult for
player to enter and throw off with
out exposing blots.
If the opponent is ahead or nearer
home, try to hit his blots and ham
per him in every possible way.
A S soon as all the men have
"A passed the opponents men, so
there is no danger in exposing blots,
always play the man which may be
moved into the next table with the
feweSt wasted points, rather than a
man which may be moved SO that
he stays in the same table.
When all the men are in the home
table, and the opponent has no men
| left in this table, always bear man
from the board in preference to
moving one up.
When the opponent still has men
in the home table it often is wise to
move up in, preference to throwing
off.
This is, true when bearing off a
man would leave a.. blot, or leave
men in a position which might force
a blot to be exposed on the next
play. It is safer to crowd the men
on few points until the opponent
is obliged to move out of the table.
When both players succeed in
getting their men out of the oppo-
nent's home table quickly it is
race to see which first can get home
and borne off the board.
TINE defense against the running
L game is to leave men in the
opponents home table, hoping the
player who is running for home
will be obliged to leave a blot, in
which case he perhaps can be hit
and sent back, thus delaying his
race for home.
When playing a running game
and forced to leave blots, consider
the probability of being hit. The
safest place is on a point which
can be reached only by a double |

A nun might marry him, but not q
woman who loved him"
And after a struggle to bring GER
tain satisfactory relations into Their
existence, cara realized that Chris
topher was "a half measure and
that if she wanted to be a nun why
should she. have married at all.
And yet the, artistic soul, the real
marvellous being of Christopher
recognized nothing Of physical pas
sion, but just his great love OF
beauty, nature, and an Old castle.
He loved his wife as a thing OF
beauty to the eye-nothiI1g else. He
did not realize or ever know when
she ceased to be an escetic and be-
came a Wanton.
She loved him too much to hurt
or worry him and when she released
the beast in her for her first salts
factory experience with man as a
man, she thought she was only CIV
ing up just a little part. of that
which was her husbands.
She Also Destroyed
When cara became an iconoclast
she realized in satisfying certain bits
Of her many-sided nature that she
had destroyed the very approaches
which guarantee security in the
future.
AS she told her sister Jane, pas
sion isn't eternal and when it ended,
I should have to live with a blank
the rest Of my life"
Christopher was not a failure in
the strict sense of the word because
he was that part of her which was
so lonely since she lost the power of
inventing things.
AS she said herself, christopher
companions the bits of me that 1
can't show, and, though don't
think he knows it at all, he does
need me-"
He did need her, even to secure
for himself the right kind of a
funeral. There must be red roses
in the church, heaps of roses, and
his widow must wear red flaming
dress so as to match the beauty of
the roses.
A Study of Adventure
In my own little way, I nave tried
to get under the skin of the several
chief characters in Zone Flesh"
Here is an honest study Of moderns
told in ma sterful English. The con-
struction is about perfect and the
logic as startling as it is true.
There are no half measures on the
part of the characters created by
Mrs. Forbes. There is some SPLEEN
did logic here and conversation
which is not mine run but brilliant
and startling in its realism.
Here is an example of the logic
THE best ingredients for love are
general companionableness and good
bedroom manners"

who are not afraid to explore, If
you wear flannel night gowns don't
get acquainted with this one.
I am not ashamed to say that this
book Swayed me mentally, just like
going to good etheater, as much as I
ever have been by the printed page
in my life.
Maybe I have gone 1850, Who
