Lovemaking Is An Art

No use trying to convince me that
youthful marriages in general work
out well. I've lived too long and have
seen too much to be optimistic on
that subject. And when a girl isn't
dead sure she loves her man and is
ready TO undertake marriage. house
work, baby-rearing and nine hundred
and eighty-seven other responsible
ties, the chances Of peace and happi-
ness are about one-half of one per
cent.
Even the modernest marriage
means loss of liberty, ] don't care
what you say. Matrimony is like
any other job (only harder, and no
Job can be held down without con-
centration, work and self-denial.
Kissing and all other love making
is an art. A not very well understood
art, at that! The ones who "see so
much in kiss" are as likely to be
the least understanding. Those who
don't seem to care" about kisses
are apt to be the knowing ones. When
people kiss merely for the physical
thrill it brings, without love or even

Celery Adds zest, To Daily Diet

II is only in the last few years
that celery has ceased to be a nov
city crop in this country. For many
year it was associated only with
turkey and cranberry sauce. Now it
is considered to be a general truck
garden crop and the season has been
extended to include virtually all the
wear. Housewives and cooks have
learned 10 use every part of the eel

delicious dishes. The trimmings and
leaves are used to flavor broths and
soups, while the seeds are used in
picking or for celery salt.
Celery may be used every day in
the week without satiating the appe-
tite. The following recipes offer
ways of including this vegetable in
the daily diet:

fondness, IL degrades both kisser and
kissee, and both usually are sorry
afterward. Many who don't indulge
in promiscuous kissing are like those
who refuse cocktails, fearing TO be
affected by them--to no good end.
This question of kissing, as Mary
Alden Hopkins says in her recent
etiquette book. MRS. Grundy Is
Dead" compiled from questionaires
TO young people themselves, "is one
that divides families. The yesses and

Dear Miss White:

| spect, admiration or love. We are
exact opposites in every way, and
our married life is anything but
smooth sailing. But think if give
in to all of his wishes and do as he
wants me to in everything, we could
get along" after fashion. Shall L?
So far have met no one whom |
love and perhaps ] never shall. We
have no children, because as we are
now living it would be a crime to
bring them into the world.
You probably are wondering why

time ! thought knew. If we sepa-
rate | shall have to support myself.
and | have no way in which | could
do so except by manual labor. Even
such work is hard to find at the pres
ent time.
Please answer as soon as possible.
I'm sure you can and will help me.
I've read your column for the last
four or five years and your advice
10 mere has W ne
change made soon. one way or the
other, and ] want this change to be
final. UNCERTAIN.
We agree upon one point and that
is in wondering why you ever married
this man when you seemingly have so
little in common.
1t is because Of such experiences
as this of yours and hundreds of 9th
ers that | so strongly urge young
girls not to lose their heads and rush
into marriage without pausing TO
look the matter squarely in the face
and considering it carefully and
calmly from all points of view. II is
Indefinitely better for romance to
die before marriage rather than aft
er, if die it must.
Marriage, to be successful. must
be a partnership affair in which OK
lists spirit Of mutual helpfuness.
responsibility and cooperation. Each
one, at times, must defer to the
wishes of the other, but for either to
give in entirely to the wishes of the
other destroys the spirit which must
be kept alive if the marriage is to
succeed. II cannot be a one-sided
arrangement.
knowing nothing whatever of the
true state of affairs with you,
would not venture an opinion more
than to say that IN the light of what
| have Just written, you will have to
answer the question as best you can
for yourself.
If you have not had good, frank
talk ands have notxboth dong your
best toward making the other happy,
| suggest that you try to do so be-,
fore going on together or before
you decide upon securing a divorce.
More than one marriage wreck has
been averted on the verge of di-
vorce and the couple has lived happily
ever after. hope you may find
this experience possible.
1t is indeed wrong to bring chill
dren into the world in such circum-
stances and, as you say, home is
not complete without them. But by
trying very hard, can't you change
| the circumstances?
You are handicapped in not be-
ing able to support yourself and
that enters somewhat into the con-
sideration of your problem. While
not preaching to you in the least,
the Importance of every girl being
brought up to do something by which
she may earn living if the occasion
arises, as it so often does, is every
day becoming more evident. Life has

WINTERS DEAD;
HAIL SPRING.!

There is no news like good
news, and, according to the
weather man, there can be no
better news than the end of win
ter, which formally left us at 9
o'clock this morning, when the
sun passed over the equator on
it's annual trip north.
Although it was a bit frosty
early today, that touch of cold
was the final gesture of old King
Winter, who has moved on until
next year.
Weather Bureau officials re-
ported that the past winter was
the mildest that we have had
since 1925 and, in addition, was
the most arid.
In practically all of the agri-
cultural States precipitation was
far below normal. During last
summer precipitation was 73 per
cent of normal.

UP To STATES

Fate of the proposed George
washington Memorial Parkway,
the gigantic Identification sys-
tenn along the banks of the Po-
tomac, now is in the hands of
the legislatures of Maryland and
Virginia, with prospects slim that
the program will be carried out
in the next few years.
With the refusal of Congress to
make Immediately available S3,-
100000 for purchase. of "key
sites" in the proposed parkway,
no funds will be available for
this use except i'm proportion to
the amounts appropriated by the
two legislatures.
Maryland Has Money
The Maryland legislature Is
trying to work out a measure
which would make available some
State funds and a corresponding
amount Of Federal money for
purchase of park sites, but it IS
understood that these funds will
be devoted to minor park projects
which, although they will tie in
ultimately with the larger pro-
ject, are not regarded as vital to
the more extensive proposition.
Virginia will be unable to take
any steps toward apprOpriating
money for the parkway until its
legislature meets next year.
Congress Refuses Funds
ForeSeeing that the States
would delay action on the pro-
posal, those in charge of the
development have been seeking
to have Congress release at once
$3,0O0,00O for purchase of sites
in the parkway in advance of
commitments by the States to
meet their share of the expense.
But Congress has failed to an
Swer the petitions on this matter,
insisting that the original pro-
gram laid down in the Capper-
Champion act be carried out.
Undoubtedly a heavy drive will
be maintained during the summer
to keep public interest in the
matter aroused in order that de-
mandS may be renewed when
Congress reconVeneS.

VIEW BLOOMS

With more than 1000 plants
on exhibit, the eighteenth annual
amaryllis show of the Department
of Agriculture opened this after
noon in the greenhouses, at Four,
teenth and Constitution Avenue.
The collection this year is said
to be one of the finest ever dis
played, with each plant bearing
from one to six flower stems, with
six or seven flowers on each
stem. A number of the seedlings
are Towering for the first time.
The bulbs which are now in
flower are all products Of cross
pollination of seeds imported
from England in 1909.
Mrs. Arthur Hyde, wife of the
Secretary of Agriculture, acted
as hostess for the wives of cabi-
net members and other high Off
cials at the special exhibit this
morning. The show will lie open
to the public daily after today
from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m. until its
close on Sunday. March 20,
