tian's famous painting of a nude
woman in the exhibit at the art
institute and was interested. No
sooty thoughts arose to spoil my en-
joyment of the picture, since there
is nothing shocking to me about the
undraped human figure.
I think what offends you is not
so much the nudity of the dancer
as the reaction of the people who
see her. 1 feel the same repulsion
when I hear about stag parties
where nude dancers have been en-
ployed to appeal to the repressed
passions of men. Husbands seem
to feel that they are putting some
thing smooth over on their wives.
They exchange sly winks and
naughty nudges and twit each other
with the question, What would
your wife do if she could see you
now?"
To me it is very sad that mar
riage should be regarded as a sort
of penal institution, incapable OF
the sweet, disreputable bliss" which
makes sneaking secondhand sensa-
lions unnecessary. After all, 1 Won
der if such spectacles aren't more
pathetic than disgusting.
Now that I've had my say, I'll be
intensely interested in the view
point of other readers. Let every
person with any thoughts on the
subject be generous enough to make
contribution to the column.
Dear Jane Jordan am boy
nearly 20, going with girl three
wears older than myself. 1 want
to marry her, but her parents OBJ
iect because my father has served
several terms in state prison. !
do not live with my parents, but
with an aunt and uncle. l never
have been in any trouble of any
kind.
WHY should her parents hold
my fathers conduct against me?
They say it is wrong to go with
girl older than myself. They
threaten to tell people have
known for years of my fathers
past if 1 don't stay away from
her. 1 am just stumbling in the
dark. Sometimes I feel like kiss
ing the world good-by? Am I
worthy of their daughter in mar
riage? HELPLESS.
Answer don't like the way you
sign yourself. Such a concept OF
your personality will do you more
harm than whole family in the
state prison. No man who has his
health and head is helpless.
At first glance l like your family
better than your girls family. Your
father has sinned and been caught.
The girls family is attempting a
nasty little piece of blackmail I'M
der cover of virtue and has not
been caught. Why don't you get
mad about it instead of wringing
your hands and wanting to kiss the
world good-by?
The real objection to your mar
riage with the girl apparently has
rot occurred to them, and that is
your youth. Three years difference
in ages does not amount to much.
But a boy of 20 should be willing
to wait until he is better prepared
to shoulder the responsibilities Of
matrimony. In few more years
this girl may not appeal to you
at all
I most certainly do not believe
that the sins of the fathers shoLsd
be visited upol the children. The

cination Mrs. Atkins thinks of her
audience. 1t wants to be enter
tanned. 1t wants something new.
1t wants to be informed, but pleas
antly so. Even this summer while
she vacations she is planning new
features for her broadcast in the
fall.
Perceptions Are Sharper
I've Sharpened my perception
since I've been gathering news for
my broadcast" explains Mrs. At
kins. Il never realized how lnob-
servant 1 had been. Life takes on
a new SAVIOR. Things you never no.
ticed before have their appeal. You
understand what Kipling meant by
his variety of things"
Friends of Mrs. Atkins wonder
how she manages her work, the
presidency of Junior League, and
affiliations with the Woman's Or
ganization for National Prohibition
Reform and the Orchard school.
They ask me, when do you see
your children? How can you do
everything and not neglect your
home?"
Because I have no decisions
about the length of the day and the
limit of my strength" she answers.
Life is a selective process. You
must be strong minded enough to
] sit down and choose what you want
/ to do. It's no use to tangle up your
life with so many things that none
can be completed successfully"
Day Is Systematized
Mrs. Atkins concentrates her eff
forts on her four activities. She
Systematizes her day. She organizes
her time and keeps faith with her
schedule of doing things at certain
| times.
"A woman who chooses outside in
terests need not neglect her chill
dren and her husband. If she Sc
lects her activities wisely and budg
cts her time Systematically, she can
live as normal a life as anyone"
! reasons Mrs. Atkins.
Promptness is Mrs Atkins fetish
If she schedules a match of tennis
with a friend, she's on the court
ready to play. She never rushes in
belatedly to dinner parties, and she
never starts meeting late.
When she rises in the morning,
! she sets the house in order for the
day. She sees that Elias Jr., 10, and
Ann, 7, get off to Orchard school,
where they remain until 4:30.
Always Greets Children
She has made it a rule to be at
home when the children arrive from
school. The rule is inviolable, for
she never accepts duty or invita-
ton that will take her away from
home at this hour.
Her poise and diplomacy have
brought her three terms as presi-
dent of the Indianapolis Junior
League. The group paid a tribute
to her leadership this year, when it
reelected her to guide it through
the difficulties of another depres-
sion year. Her first term was served
early in the history of the league.
Mrs. Atkins has ruled mo Junior
League calls after g." So commit

age her outside affairs. It think
can give my children more by
broadening my life with outside
contacts than I could by sitting at
home and mending their socks.
After all, you learn by what goes
on about you, If gain something
from my interests to hand on to
them, haven't 1 succeeded as a
mother?"
