need not worry if her work gets
a little behind.
On the other hand, wives
should be considerate in their
allowances for the husband and
children when they are enjoy
ing play spells that hang over
past meal time occasionally.
A fifty-fifty arrangement Is
fair and fairness breeds happl-
ness.
OF course, if a husband is &C.
customed to arriving home for
dinner at a certain time and
has not given previous notice Of
change, his plans should be ar
ranged to make things easy at
home by conforming to family
routine whenever possible.

Summer HeIpfulness

Summer Helpfulness
In summer there must be
more or less elasticity in family
routine.
Everyone wants a little lee
way and there is less deisire to
hustle, to meet "up-to-the'min-
ute" appointments.
If dinner is not ready to serve
at the usual time on a hot day,
what of it?-there should not
be any complaints.
If when it is served it proves
to be a very simple affair, SO
much the better for health in
warm weather.
Those responsible should not
be censured if they seek to save
effort required to prepare a
large meal and to have 1t ready
at a regular time.

HOLLYWOOD WHEN WE'RE
IN THE KINDERGARTEN-
AND OUR WHOLE IDEA OF A
REGULAR LIFE IS TO GET A
SWELL JOB WITH A BIG
SALARY AND LIVE CLASSY.
AND ALL OUR EDUCA-
TON BACKS UP THAT IDEA.
IT'S THE AMERICAN IDEAL.
EVERYBODY'S GOT TO BE A
BIGGER AND BETTER BUT

IDEA IS DRILLED INTO OUR
EARS ALL THROUGH HIGH
SCHOOL AND COLLEGE.
WE AREN'T LEARNING
HOW TO LIV+REALLY
LIVE. WE'RE LEARNING
HOW TO LIVE so THAT WE
CAN MAKE MONEY; AND
WE'RE TOLD THAT IF WE
OBEY THE RIGHT RULES,
AND PLAY SAFE, AND WAIT
FOR LADY LUCK, EVERY
THING WILL BE JAKE.
A few of us have the gump-
tion to strike out for ourselves
and find out what life is all
about; but most of us just sit
down and wait for our Big Op-
portunity to come along. The
country is clogged with wait
ing young men and women who
don't dare take a chance-and
then they whine because they
never get the breaks.
Look at us. What are most
of us doing? AS I said before
just waiting. Sunk in apathy,
waiting "for something to turn
up" Yes, the Old Folks who
pamper us are to blame; but
if we're half as smart and
brave as we say we are, why
do we let them do it?
WE LET THEM DO TT BE-
CAUSE WE LOVE IT! WE
OULDN'T BE UNITED
FROM THE APRON-STRINGS
FOR ANYTHING.
The day is gone when a
man of 81 (for they were men
them married his sweetheart
and took her in a covered
wagon off into the sunset,
happy, strong hearted, Sef-suf-
ficient. Nowadays, most men
of 81 are college boys, frolick-
ing home like overgrown pups
at holidays, gladdening the eyes
of too-fond parents, using in
genuity and tact to get big
ger allowance. Or else they
are errand boys in some busi-
ness, rushing away at S sharp
to tell their families or their
best girls how hard they have
to work, how tired they are and
what a terrible grind it all is,
anyway.
They wish a lot, though.
They wish they could get Sat
urday morning off, or they
wish the boss would be away to-
morrow, so they could get a lit
tie rest. They wish their firm
would observe holidays the way
some places do.
They're bored, most Of them.
Bored with work. They're lazy
minded, sluggish, selfish. They
have no Imagination. They're
dull, rniddle-aged fogieS-and
they are getting altogether too
much pity.
"Twenty-three."
There's what one young man
thinks Of his generation. Do

Conflict Of Authority

One Of the peculiar phases of the
argument over the Beer bill in con-
gress Is the effort to make sure that
the courts will rule the measure. II
ana when passed, in accord with the
constitution which forbids the man
ufacture or sale Of intoxicating liquor.
It Is an effort on the part of con-
gress, II not to evade the authority
OF the supreme court at least to make
sure that the court will agree with
the lawmakers.
The House Bill amended the VOL
stead Act by attempting to define
beer with 80 per cent alcohol by con-
tent as non-intoxicating and sought
to provide revenues by taxation"
thereon. The Senate measure avoids
all reference to the question of what
Is intoxicating by exempting from the
volstead Act certain beverages OF
stipulated maximum alcoholic con.
tent.
The Senate amendment seeks to
make 1t difficult to raise constitu-
tional question, on the deduction that
the judicial branch Of the govern
ment cannot require the legislative
branch to do what the legislative
branch refuses to do.
Some see in the amendment an eff
fective instrument for the complete
notification Of the Eighteenth
Amendment by passing further legis-
lation raising the maximum alcoholic
content Of liquors. Resort to such
legislation will not be taken, it is
said, unless there is continued and
concerted delay in submitting to the
states a suitable plan OF repeating or
modifying the Eighteenth Amend
ment, or unless, after submitting such
an amendment, more than one-fourth
OF the states refuse to ratify it.
The whole business illustrates
tendency on the part of our national
lawmakers to evade contentious issues
and to play around on the edges Of a
problem rather than go direct to its
heart.
To anyone not a congressman the
reasonable thing would seem to be
immediate submission to the states
of an amendment to repeal the pro-
hibition clause in the constitution.
There can be nothing wrong with
submitting the matter to the people
as directly and quickly as possible.
BY SO doing congress can avoid both
notification and charges Of nullifica-
ton, and besides the people have
asked that this be done.

Dancing New York
New York, Jan. 3l.-Cavernous cell
lars which once housed night clubs
and roof-tops which once sheltered
cabarets have been suddenly presto
changed into the greatest assortment
Of dance halls that Broadway has ever
known.
Like prospectors in a gold rush, pro-
motors scramble to stake out claims
to every available floor space of any
size in the bright lights belt. The big
street Is in the midst of q rising flood
Of stepping-spots, plain, fancy, and ex-
travagantly ornate. They range from
penny taxi-dances to relatively de-
corous resorts where hostesses in mod
ish evening dresses are provided with
the 81 admission fee, plus such tips as
the patron wishes to lavish.
There are semi-gigolos for lonely
young ladies and innumerable attrac-
tive partners for males. Newspaper
advertisements make daily appeals to
the hordes Of lonely ones in great
city. Competition has added floor
shows, q Ia night club, to many places.

Connoisseurs in such matters in
form me that there never was such
available beauty at a nickel or ten
cents q dance. Some spots have as
many as 200 young women from which
to choose dance partners. Another,
aiming at Manhattan's cosmopolitan
population, announces international
beauties"-and the hostesses are from
at least half dozen different lands.
Most Of these speak the native tongue
and thus attract the lorn foreigners.
