IDEAR MISS DENE: Is it unrea.
II sonable of me to demand that
my husband show me affection?
Other wives are constantly show
cred with affection in my presence
and am treated as if I'd been mar
ried for fifteen years. My husband
says I am unreasonable. Am H.
Amy.
ANSWER - Probably you are
Amy. If you married an undemon
strative man you knew what yor
were in for and it isn't fair for yol
to start complaining now because {
reserved fiance has turned out to be
quite naturally, a husband who OBJ
jects to showing his affection in pub
lie.
You must admit that the fact that I
man is demonsratipe doesn't actuall,
make him a good husband. There ar,
plenty of traits more handy to hau,
around the house than the faculty for in
cess01t lope-making. Begin to count YOU
blessings, Amy, and see tohetter after al
the other iUomen's husbands are as KIND
or generous or stUeettempered, or eas,
going as your ot0H.
And don't forget that nothing car
be worse for your undemonstrative
spouse than your constant remind
ers that he is a perfect frost. The
more you tell him about his short
comings, the more disinclined he'll
be to show affection. His reserve
rises from shyness anyhow, ano
you can't cure shyness with nag
ging criticisms.
Be sensible and thank Providence
for all the good qualities you've an
nexed in one man. Hang on to YOU
sense of hunor and let go some o.
your vanity. You're worried mostly
about this situation because the 9th
er wives are getting something
you've missed. Just pause to con
slider that you wouldn't change youl
own silent but devoted ife-partnel
for all the petting sheiks in the
world.

This accomplishment today had
won the National Safety Councils
highest award for American Air

was being proudly displayed in
the airline's offices at 813
Fifteenth st. N. w. today.
Bureau of Air Commerce Off
Gals, who furnished the figures
upon which the National Safety
Council made awards to four air
lines, today declared the past
years performance by commercial

new era in aerial safety opera

tality; Northwestern Airlines, with
81 ,485, 1872 miles flown from 1927
to 1887, and Pennsylvania Central
Airlines, with a slightly lower
number of safety miles, received
similar awards.
American, with a long list of
"firsts" in aviation, owes much of
its success in maintenance to Dick

atoms maintenance award at the
eleventh annual gathering of the

Fifty-Seven planes, 1853 aircraft

more than $4,000 miles daily over

who started his career as an aYi-

Among the famous firStS for
American Airlines are:
Installation of the first sleeper

operations:
First airline to reach the L.

First coast-to-coaSt throug h

Coolidge Quartet Is Heard
In French Chamber Music

the art of this distinguished en-
semble it would be concerned
with a certain excess of eager
ness, a slight exaggeration of
the responses of the performers
themselves, as if overperSuaded
by the eloquence of their own
music-making.
REACH PERFECTION
On the other hand, this may
well be a critical exaggeratioa
arising from the pleasurable ex-
element stimulated by their
performance. Perhaps the critic
needs more experience in con-
facts with perfection; for, it's
unexpected but possibly anthem
TIC moments of drama apart,
that seems to be the word called
for in describing their account
OF the RaVel quartet.
This exquisite work opened
the program to the grave dis
advantage of the compositions
by Saint-SaenS and Faure that
followed it. The product of
RaVelS early manhood, it is the
finest fruit of his creative
imagination. His melodies still
had the frame and pattern of
true lyric utterance. Or, if
briefly thematic, they profited
by the unpredictable variety of
rhythmic forms. His harmonieS
made no denial of tonality
though they escaped every hint
OF the conventional.
Saint-SaenS was a year older
when he wrote the trio for
violin, viola and piano played
last night; but he showed no
such originality, nor any of the
adventurous spirit of youth that
carried Ravel into so many un-
explored worlds of beauty.
ROMANTIC WORK
Faure's quartet for violin, cello
and piano, which closed the pro
gram, dates from the composers
maturity. 1t is definitely q ro-
mantle work, with more than a
leaning toward the color and
the illusion of the present cen
tury'S first decades. A logic that
rejects all temptation to over
development, that stimulates
an imaginative treatment of
rhythm within the pattern, that
will admit nothing that is cum
bersome or inept, operates to
give all this widely contrasted
music the stamp of race.
Frank Sheridan joined the
string players for the Saint
SaenS and Faure numbers and
fitted into the ensemble as
though he had shared all the
years of rehearsal that have
made the Coolidge players dis
tinguiShed,

The French have been called

innate more easily understood
when applied to their music
than in relation to other aspects
of their culture. It was this
quality, as it operates to disci-

together the widely divergent

permitted to run to maturity-1952-

for the one that turns up. But. I'll
tell you a secret, I'm going to load
that die, before I do the shaking act
I amt much on games of chance.
Then, look at all these aspirants
and perspirants for jobs in the Coun'
ty. Amt it sumpin'? Why, one
time, a man accused me of not voting
for him and he hasn't spoken to me
since. Do you suppose all these can
didates 1 pass by are going to pass me
by from now on, once and forever
more? Gosh! I'll feel lonely, and my
worry now won't be circumstance
to what's in store for me.
And then, I have been worrying
about all this cold rainy weather.
couldn't stay in the house without a
fire, and I wish you could see my coal
pile and my bank account; and blest
if it amt colder in the house than it
is out doors. Then, too, I've about
worn out all my winter clothes, and
if warm weather don't arrive pretty
soon, I'll have to wait until after
nightfall before I venture down town.
Don't care about looking so seedy.
In addition, too, and also, I've been
worrying a whole lot about-well,
about just nothin'. And I want to
tell you that's the worst kind of wor-
ry. And when you get to doin' that,
it's proof positive there's something
lacking in your upper story; and I've
been thinking that was my case for
some time; at least, I've been led to
think so by some of the compliments
(?) showered upon this column. When
somebody tell me that nobody but a
crazy man would write such stuff
as goes in here, it gives you pause,
as Billy Shakespeare would say.
So, with all this worry on my mind,
I came to the conclusion I'd better
leave this column out this week. May
be next week, the sun will shine
brighter, the air will warm up, and
something cheerful will happen to set
my pen to working. What's the use
of making everybody feel as blue as
you are. So, you folks who read this
once in a while, please excuse it this
week. I won't write it.
