II you do not like lane Jordan's an
swers. put your objections in a letter!
The more viewpoints we consider the
more interesting the column.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am a girl
of II and just out of school.
There is only one thing I dislike
about being home and that is
being lectured all of the time
about boys. Mother doesn't trust
them and she talks continually
about their handing out a line.
I'm getting so disguised I don't
know what to do. She always is
telling me what will happen II
am not careful.
L believe that I am able to get
along with boys but Mother
doesn't think so. I've just about
reached the end of my rope.
Everything else is fine and dandy.
1t isn't that I don't get all the
things I want in life, but I'm
getting so discouraged that be-
fore long I won't even care to be
out with them. Mother is a dear
except for that one fault and
that ruins it all. DISGUISED.
Answer-Your mother is wrong in
her teaching, since you can not solve
the problems of life by evadine
them. There is little you can dc
about it. however, except to prove
your maturity by understanding her
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-05-07

men are degraded and dangerous
creatures.
Your mother means we'll. She is
filled with fears and dark forebod-
ings which arise from a Puritanical
training. She does not consciously
wish to take all the joy out of life
for you, but to preserve your inno-
cence, and deliver you to your future
husband wrapped in cellophane and
untouched by knowledge.
At II your major problem is to
adjust yourself to the other sex. 1t
is not fair to you to hamper your
development by soaring you to
death with yarns of the perf1dy of
men. Girls brought up on the idea
that men are a species OF the big,
bad wolf are often so Self-conscious
and paralysed by fear that they are
unable to meet men on the part
nership basis which alone insure a
happy marriage.
Parents are terribly afraid of the
freedom which youth demands.
Many times their fears are justified
by the foolish behavior and hap
less mistakes of the young in their
groupings to find each other. What
they do not realize is that the mis-
takes of freedom, though exceed
ingly regrettable, are less far-reach-
ing and damaging in their ultimate
results than the mistakes of rigid
repression.
Apparently a girl who has been
disappointed and betrayed by a silly
youth has a far better chance to
reorganize her life on a healthy
basis with some other man than
the girl who has been completely re-
~frigerated by an over-anxious
mother. Most of the sour,
embittered, frustrated women who
have failed to find partners belong
to the latter group. Those who do
marry are unable to join with their
husbands in the fellowship of love,
and their ungratif1ed instincts tend
to seek an outlet in the disturbing
desire to dominate.
1t is right for your mother to warn
you that boys are bewitched by the
surge of desire which they are none
too scrupulous in gratifying. 1t is
right for her to explain that their
wooing does not necessarily mean
that their affections are permanent

the customary bugle call on such
occasions"
CINCE selecting the commemor-
~ atives from the many stamps
recorded in the catalogue is a
tedious and wearisome task, this
authoritative volume will prove an
efficient short cut when compiling
either a complete or specialized
commemorative collection. 1t is
interesting philatelic reading and
a splendid reference work.
Evidently the first day covers
for the Mothers day stamp,
which are at hand, inspired many
artistic cachets.
LIE Grand Payne, dean of In
dianapolis stamp collectors, re-
membered each mother in the In
diana Stamp Club with a hand
some cacheted cover on which
the address was deliberately en-
crossed.
This latest commemorative
serves also to honor the one
huudredth anniversary of the
birth of Whistler, whose painting
President Roosevelt suggested for
use on the stamp.
The design was engraved by the
youthful genius of the Bureau of
Engraving and printing, Victor
McCloskey, who also made the de-
signs for the Penn, MIRA. New
hurgh. Olympic Games, and Byrd
stamps.
The Mothers day stamp has
been printed on both rotary presses
and at plate. Rotary plate num-
bers are 21,202 to 21,205, inclusive,
and fiat plate numbers 21,210 to
2-2I9, inclusive. At present the
Indianapolis postoffice has only the
rotary stamps. The first fiat plate
printing was sent to the United
States island possessions.
