One Explanation

OAs~ ASNRAOAhWVAVAA
The irate publisher Of one
string Of newspapers has no doubt
about what caused his editors TO
go ga-ga. 1.-THE trouble with them
was that instead Of listening to
reporters they let the bankers
hang onto their ears, runs his
angry complaint. There may be
something In his explanation.
Whether the bankers Of the coun-
try ran the newspapers during the
presidential campaign do not
presume to say. Maybe they did
through the medium Of the Re-
publican National Committee.
But the geniuses who outlined the
battle program for Mr.. Landon,
who served as his general staff
and ran his campaign were all
newspaper editors or publishers
known as 1.-THE Kansas Gang"
Col. Knox Is publisher and was
an editor. This last might have
had something to do with the
support his fellow publishers and
editors gave him, a kind Of zone
of us made the grade" feeling.
What Is certain Is that whether
the editors listened to the bank
ers or not eighty per cent OF them
thought the thoughts and ex-
pressed the wishes Of the great
financial, industrial, and business
interests which left no stone un-
thrown at President Roosevelt. It
was for that sin against the
fundamental law Of the news
paper business that their pres
ent loss OF influence is due. Any
editor has not Only the right, but
Is under the moral obligation, to
think for himself and to express
his own opinions. The thoughts
may be cuckoo and the opinions
not worth whoop but 50 long as
they are the writer's own they de-
serve and receive consideration.
When an editor who Is supposed
to think not only for himself but
In the interest Of NIL ~ against
any special group, ceases TO do
that he ceases to be an editor
and becomes merely . mouth
piece, what happened last Mo-
vember Is explained to the writ
er's satisfaction on the theory
that the savageness Of the edi-
torial onslaughts made against
Mr.. Roosevelt were so alike IN
quality and content that the
dumbest reader felt they were in
spired from and directed by forces
outside the publishing plant alto
gether, and so were not to be con-
sidered important. In addition. 1t

Another motive may enter into
Z the girls behavior who attracts
only married men. 1t is the de-
sire to show power by taking a
man who belongs to some other
woman.
In winning him away from an
other she feels the lawless thrill of

Dear Jane Jordan - My boy
friend from out town and l have
been going together fer about six
months. Suddenly he quit writing
or coming to the house.
I have found out he has been
dating my girl friend. They tried to
keep it secret from me. When not

right. Neither of them has any,
thing against me. Please help me.
PUZZLED.
Answer-Of course it is blow to
your pride to have your boy friend
prefer your best girl friend.
There isn't anything you can do
about it but to be as pleasant as
possible to both of them-and get
yourself another boy friend. Waste
no time grieving for this one.

both loved me. Married men still
fiatter me with their remarks and
ask me for dates. I simply don't
attract single men; they Just pass
me up. Will you please tell me
what Is the matter with me?
Answer-If married men are
attracted to you and single men are
not it only can mean that conscious
ly or unconsciousIy your demeanor
differs with the married and the
single. Many girls who claim thew
really wish to marry have a deep
seated fear of settling the love prob
lem, which makes them awkward
and Self-conscious with any man
who is a prospective husband.
They are more natural and free
with a married man because they
know he can not interpret their
behavior as bid for husband.
He represents less risk since no
immediate decision to marry must
be faced.
When a girls self-esteem is very
low she thinks man does her a
favor by proposing. She is not con-
fldent of her own worth and is con-
strained, affected, combative or
masculine with a man who is free
to marry. Her pride and her fear
combine to make her stand -offish.
Her defenses are erected to prevent
him from regarding her as sup
plicant for his favor and to avoid

was why she magnified such things
as travelling.

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIvE


Ronnie's face was still sober, but
not reproachful. Dana smiled at
him, trying to speak brightly:
Were you really interested in
Nancy when you were in high
SCHOOL,"
Il really was" Ronnie lit a
cigaret and then absently crushed
it on the arm of the swing. But
1t didn't do me any good. She

though I haven't the slightest men,
DRY of anything of the sort. She

Apparently he had lost interest in

Nancy a thought in years"
Dana looked toward the door Did
she imagine it or was that a slight
sound inside? Perhaps it was just
the wind rocking one of the chairs.
II haven't though about any one, "
Ronnie said slowly, "in more than
a year"
DESPITE the fact that he was
trying to be understanding,
ROME was aggrieved by Dana's de-
sertion. 1t had not been f1attering,
to say the least, for Dana to accept
Cyril Lancasters' invitation to go
fishing.
When their absence heightened
past the breakfast hour Ronnie was
sure he had just cause for grievance.
Gay groups eddied about him. No
one was gayer than Paula, but Ron
ME sensed that Paula was wearing a
mask. Her pitched laughter
held note that was almost hysteri-
cal. For some reason Ronnie felt
sorry for Paula.
AS though drawn by current OF
sympathy, she detached herself from
the others and joined him.
They should have caught all the
fish in the lake by this time" she
said, adding, ut occurs to me that
you and 1 are in the same boat,
Ronnie."
"Oh, I guess we could have fished,
too, if we hadn't been lazy" Ronnie
said carelessly.
Don't be dumb. I didn't mean
that"
What did you mean?" Ronnie
asked impatiently.
Paula's eyes narrowed. Dana
and 1 are a couple of fools" she
said slowly. But she is a bigger
fool than I ever was. Figure it
out"
Ronnie frowned. Paula was al
ways trying to b esubtle. Or was
y this her way of making trouble,
settling score with Dana? If she
was limiting something about Scott
it was all a lot of nonsense. Dana
had been divorced from Scott six
months now, and it had been al
most year since she had left him.
Women don't go about in these
modern times eating their hearts
out for men they have deliberately
divorced.
Ronnie determined that he would
not let what Paula had said worry
him
But an hour later he was driv-
ing TO town. He had explained
that business required an hour or
two of his time.

Ronnie said. Tell Dana to save

Creamy Skins
Need Careful
Makeup Choice
BY ALICIA HART

A girl with creamy skin has to be
exacting in her choice of makeup
and particularly careful about
cleansing. This type of complexion
is sure to look dingy if it isn't given
meticulous attention.
Generally speaking. creamy skins
are normal or slightly oily. You sell
dom see an excessively dry one They
have underlying tones of pale yell
low, of course, and usually are en-
HANGED by makeup that has subtle
orange lights in it.
If your skin is creamy and nor
NAL, always remember to use soap
and water before cleansing with
cream. If it has a tendency to be
oily, cream first, then wash.
Pick rouge that matches the
natural tone of your cheeks when
they are flushed from exercise or
excitement Undoubtedly an off red
will be better than clear one or a
pink shade.
Pick Rouge Carefully
This doesn't mean that you should
go IN for strange orange-henna
rouge which, unless there's some
thing wrong with your health, never
in the world will match your blood
tones. Lipstick, too, ought to match
the natural color of your lips. IN
doubtedly one of the new East In
dian colors will blend fairly closely
and, in addition emphasize the
creaminess of your skin.
The real test of your ability to
pick cosmetics that enhance your
loneliness comes when you buy face
powder. Don't let any one try to
sell you powder which is even a
slight shade darker than your own
complexion. 1t must match and
match perfectly.
