rapid success in her field we
must give some credit to Miss
Sawyer'S father, who thought Of
such a helpful plan. Incidental
ly, she sold the house before it
was finished.
It was her schoolmate in Cam
bridge, Rose Greedy, who wired
her to come to Washington, and
that she'd help her to a job with
Horace Peaslee. So that was
how Miss Sawyer came here.
Since opening her own office in
1884 she has built houses, coun-

Miss Sawyer thinks the build
ing she made for the Junior
League is one Of the most salts
flying she has done in modern
architecture.
When asked what she does for
recreation and vacations, Miss
Sawyer said she never has any
holidays but that there is so
much variety in her work, she
doesn't miss 1t.

year, her building has taken her

she got the notion of being an
architect.
When she was attending the
University of Illinois she took up
landscape architecture as com.

thought out and out architecture
was a mans field.
From the university she went
on to the Cambridge School Of

studied privately under Prof.
James Sturgis Pray of Harvard,
who was available due to the alb
sence of men students fighting
the World War.
It was here that she confeSSeS
that she was fatally exposed to
architecture. 1t seems that her

Marriage Makes
HGppiest Career

No one will deny that the hap
piest lot for women is marriage.
provided the husbands they get
are considerable, faithful and
able to assume the responsible
tiles of the welded state. But
lacking these qualities, much is
to be said for the lot Of the
present-day bachelor girl, even
when she isn't q career woman.
She can earn her own bread,
and she doesn't have to take
refuge with some unmarried
relatives and become the unpaid
drudge of a family which bare
" tolerates her. And this was
the fate Of the unmarried
woman not so long ago.
Doubtless it's remembering or
hearing about these wretcned
Aunt Marias or Cousin JennieS
which accounts for fathers at
titude that his daughter had
better take to the middle aisle
than remain single, But thanks
be to goodness that today, in q
world of opportunity. girls are
spared from jumping at the
first chance Of marriage which
presents itself. What do you
think about this? This column
win be glad to publish your enm-
ments.
The Washington times., 1938-12-19

Perhaps she sees too much
Of the storm and stress Of the
small-income marriage going on
around her. She may have
sister she has to help out-one
who has a sizeable brood clam
oring for shoes and balanced
rations. Perhaps she enjoys
life on her own terms. Success
may have made her too hard
to please, but there's no arguing
about it. Statistics show that
successful women are inclined
to celibacy.
Hard For Men
To Understand
Fathers and brothers find It
hard to grasp the why and
wherefore of this decision on
the part Of their successful
daughter and sisters. They tell
you they'd be glad to see these
higher salaried girls safely
landed in marriage, seeming to
think marriage offers more Sc
curity, even if one marriage in
every six goes On the rocks.
The male mind seems to cling
TO a hangover from the days
when marriage represented eco
nomic security for women and
was about the only occupation
open to them, except mental
labor. At that time, marriage
was necessary for q woman to

Present Dreaming
And Drifting

AS one Of them wrote 10 me,
In explaining his point Of view:
"She will have had the expert
ence Of marriage, even If it's not
perfect. It will keep her from
dreaming and drifting"
But, in my humble opinion,
the successful woman bachelor
who has q Sizeable job on her
hands dreams and drifts less
than her sister, who has been
unhappily married.
Mothers, who know more
about the Seamy side of mar
rage than their husbands, are
less keen about inducing q Sue

that it was good advice. I have
seen young doctors go out into
the country: they work hard,
and before long they get lone
some and fall for the first af-
fectionate girl they meet. You
can see that even doctors who
are supposed to know all about
this sort of thing make the
same mistakes as anyone else.
I always say to young men:
"Try to fall in love with q good,
attractive girl with a good back
ground. You may not be good
enough for her, but you can
keep on trying"
Mental Age
BeIoW Normal
I have noticed, too, that you
will often see a bright-l ooking,
attractive girl whose mental age
is about IL. In spite of that,
the men all seem to fall for her.
But you don't see many girls
going for a man whose mental
age is only IL.
One thing I have noticed
about the modern generation is
a growing tendency on their
part to examine their aSSo-
ciates with a critical mind. So
far as the ordinary person is
concerned there is nothing he
can do about his ancestry. He
can, however, adjust himself to
his environment so as to make
the best Of it and lessen any dis
advantages he may have inner
tied.

Personal Liking
Comes First
Naturally the normal person
Is attracted by a feeling OF per-
sonal liking in the choice OF a
life partner more than by the
study of family blood and the
kind of children he or she are
likely to have as the result OF
this union.
In fact, man would be a cold
blooded animal if this weren't
true. He wouldn't be the per-
son to arouse feelings in the OPP
posite sex. But it must be
sidered that one is a long, long
time married, and a little pru-
dence doesn't hurt bit.
Before we left the university,
one of our professors gave us
quite a lecture about the girls
we would marry when we got
out in the world. He pointed out
that we should be sure to see to
it that we went around with
girls whose background made it
likely that they would make us
the best wives.

He said something to us that
I have never forgotten. He
warned us that if we married a
girl Of our own level or above
and I'm not speaking of social
levels, mind you - she would
help us to greater things. But
If we married beneath us, then
we would be dragged down.
In the years that have passed.

7 STATES JOIN
HANDS IN FIGHT
FOR FEDERAL AID

Chance of victory in the federal
/ highway aid fight on the outcome
of which depends approximately
100000 in federal funds for
highway improvements in Mime
sofa during the next three years,
frightened considerably this week.
in the opinion of N. w. Elsberg,
Minnesota Highway commissioner.
Commissioner Elsberg based his
opinion on the spontaneous and un-
animous action taken last week by
1000 good roads advocates from
seven northwest states, who, follow
ing a dinner in Minneapolis, band
ed themselves together in the for
nation of the Northwest Good
Roads association.
The seven states united their
strength in making a demand on
the President of the United States
and the members of congress that
federal aid for trunk highways,
county secondary roads and grade
crossing elimination be continued
in full on it's present basis. This
would mean defeat for the program
proposed in Congress last December
that federal aid funds be curtailed
and the highway users tax money,
which in the past has been in large
part allocated to the states, for
highways, be diverted to other fed
eral government purposes.
Minnesota's stake in this issue is
almost $5,5O0,OO0 a year, or slightly
more than $16,OOO,OO0 for the fiscal
years ending July 1, 193940-41.
The formation Of the Northwest
Good Roads association was a
spontaneous action taken on the
motion of Rep. Carl Eastwood of
Ortonville after the 1900 dinner
guests hailing from all sections of
Minnesota and the delegates from
neighboring states had heard dis
cussion on the subject by Col. Will
liam Chevailer, president of the
American Road Builders associa-
ton, Congressman Wilburn Cart
wright of Oklahoma, chairman of
the house committee ON roads, Col.
o. r. Mcclure, counsel to the COM
ptroller general of the United
States, Congressman Dewey w.
Johnson of Minneapolis, Commits
sioner Elsberg and other authori-
ties.
The seven-state gathering for
warded to the White House and to
the members of the roads commit
tees of the United States senate and
house a resolution condeming the
to cancel or curtail federal
aid as a move which would dis
the highway program OF
the nation and disrupt zone, nation
al defense; two, universal trans
including farm to market
roads; three, the employment pro-
gram; four, public safety programs;
five, the tourist industry; six, the
general economic welfare" =.
The resolution commended gov
ernmental economy but vigorously
denounced diversion Of direct feder-
al levies on highway users to any
other than highway purposes, and
pointed out that the federal govern
ment has prohibited the states
from doing the very thing that such
a program would effect.
District Judge Mark Nolan of
Gilbert was elected president of the
seven-state organization, and E. w.
Moeller, Minneapolis, was named |
