"This is the only shower that
will be given for girls her own
age (office and church friendS).
The others are planned by rela-
tiveS (a11tS and so FORTH and
will consist mostly Of older
people. L."
There always Is this question
of correctness concerning the
giving of a bridal shower by
a close relative of the bride.
A shower given by the brides
sister does indeed have pretty
much the appearance of a
promotion" for gifts. Don't
you think so?
Instead of having the brides
sister plan this shower, I hope
that the close friends Of the
bride, in her office and in her
church, will plan this shower
themselves.

LOVelOrn
She Is Sorry
Now
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Famous Authority on Love
and Marriage

Dear Miss Fairfax:
ut was love at first sight with
me, though I knew he was en-
gagged to be married when 1 met
him. He's crazy about his own
girl, and she's the kind who
plays fast and loose with a man.
"She turned him down on .
date one night, and he asked
me to 60 out with him. I knew
I was playing second fiddle"
but was so much in love with
him, 1 jumped at the chance.
"He took me out in his car
and kissed and petted me. I
knew it was wrong, but / didn't
object because. loved him.
'NOw he's back with the girl,
and he sort of grins when he
sees me, and I know he has no
respect for me whatever. I
have no hope Of ever marrying
him, but I should love to win
back his respect. XXX"
If his fiance is the type who
plays fast and loose with him,
it's not unlikely that he may
ask you to fill in again when
she turns him down on date.
And there's your chance to re.
fuse.
I always feel sorry for a girl
who is in love with a man, and
whose only chance is to play
second fiddle. But that's a poor
place in LIES orchestra, and
please don't carry it too far.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
"What is your opinion Of a
husband of three months who
pays marked attention to every
girl he meets, especially in COM
pany? As I'm a newlywed this
is embarrassing, and makes me
feel he is neglecting me.
"He seems to care enough for
me, but why should he act like
that? Shouldn't he devote his
attention to me, If to anyone?
R.T."
It is not the correct thing for
a man to be so attentive to
his wife, in company, as to have
the appearance Of neglecting
the other women. Unless his
attention is especially marked,
he is doing only the conyen-
tional thing.
You see, as his wife, you
now constitute yourself as his
family, and a man is supposed
to be more att n tive to
strangers, in company, than to
his own family.

They're Surrendered to G-Men

THE reality is of course that states have ceased
u to exist in many important respects They have
even thrown up the sponge in their struggle with the
bandit and kidnaper and passed along the principal
responsibility to the so-caed Omen of the Depart
ment of Justice. Certain states have realized that
some of their sisters better off and have under
taken to equaze this advantage by putting the bee
on the national treasury whenever a fat check ar

The wealthy state has no state rights in this re-
Spect. its defense is to moOch with equal Vigor and
rapaclty Thus, New York and Illinois, for example
have mooched money for public works which they
Gid not need merely because they realized that if
they didn't get it for themselves it would only be
given 10 other states.
In this process the states have come to regard the
union as their Dutch uncle and to look to the ma
tlonal government for money and services which
they ought to provide themselves if they insist upon
their rights Originally the union was intended to be
supported by the states through sort of kitty but
that idea has been lost. The states look to the
union for money and services.
The majority of the people, if not all of them in
this generation have no feeling that they are ct-
zens of any state but think of themselves merely
as Americans. There some Sub-claSsificatiOns

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FISHBEIN =

DRACTICING the daily dozen" every morning, to
l. keep yourself timber and healthy may be good
for you, especially as you grow Older. But do you
know that one of the most popular Of these forms
of also has been found to cause much of the
backache among elderly persons?
That's the requiring you to bend over and
touch the floor with your finger tips while keeping
your knees straight This exercise puts strain
the back
specialist has discovered that when those who
have been suffering from backache and at the same
time have continued this bending exercise give UP
that particular training. they relieved of the
pain in the back
THERE are other, just as strange causes of back
ache. Failure to wear glasses, for instance, as
you grow older and acquire greater need for them.
will cause you to bend closer and closer to your work
and so produce painful strains on the body.
When you buy new automobile the change in
the seating may develop backache. Sometimes the
padding in the seat is uneven If you're not COM
fortaby seated the continual jotng along the road
will produce spinal trouble
In some instances, you can get relief merely by
adjusting the padding in the seat, putting in an
extra cushion to raise it. setting one up to bolster
the middle of your back while driving.
COMEIIMES backache comes from lying for
- long time bed in which the spring says. A
small pillow placed beneath the hollow Of the back
and under the knees will prevent strain on the
back muscles The better cure, Of course, Is to sec
that mattress and spring suitable for the right
kind of relaxation.
Use Of suitable pillows and supports gives per-
with backache chance to overcome the strain.
But the body also must be treated to improve the
tone of the muscles.
Constipation must be corrected Heat may be APP
piled in any of the various forms in which it is avail
able for the body
Many kinds of drugs may be prescribed for pain
in the back But these drugs only to block the
sensation of pain temporarily and will not cure the
condition.

New York is not Arizona's keeper but merely a fell
low member of a society OF states
That is not the way of things in practical ex-
perience however for the New York man thinks of
Arizona part Of his country ndiStnguishable
from his state, and looks upon any serious
calamity to a sister state national misfortune
The feeling is mutual, of course, barring a slight
prejudice against New York in other parts of the
country. The citizen of Arizona regards New York
as part OF his country. 1t may be true that New
York gets the breaks and drains wealth out of other
states, but the other states by the exercise of their
state rights should be able to make tariffs or check

through the Golden Gate. This
time there has been no carefully
rehearsed plan of departure, the
admiral merely giving the order
for the ships to move out.
This is done to give division,
force, and ship commanders prac-
tice in carrying out orders with
out being directed in detail.
For the next 10 days, the game
is to reach Pearl Harbor, near
Honolulu, without being seen or
attacked by enemy" submarines.
The order Of the battle line is
changed constantly, first the ships
following in line, then in staggered
formation. Sharp changes in
course are made. The destrOyerS
circle the great ships, first to port,
then to starboard. Planes, great
bombers. observation ships, and
pusuit planes, fly constantly over
head.
WITH less than "a hours to go
w to reach Pearl Harbor, first
news of disaster comes. Lieut..
Wyatt, pilot of a plane attached
to one of the carriers, has
plunged to death in the Pacific.
The news dampens the enthusi-
asm somewhat, but it is quickly
pointed out that more than 1000
flights are made during the course
of the maneuvers, and that it is
likely that had the thousands OF
men aboard the fleet been ashore
for more than week, a larger
number might well have been
killed in traffic and other acct
dents.
