"A. j. s., Vice President"
Dear Kay and Alden:
Il am a skater, not only for the
fun, but as a hobby and for the
grand exercise. 7 have visited about
every rink in this city to find out
just what they were like. and what
type of people patronized them.
After giving each fair trial, have
picked out two or three very fine
Kinks, where people go to skate
not to pitch WOO or get cheap
pickup-and I skate at those places
exclusively.
MY girl friends and I have gone
skating to the same places so fire.
quently that we have become &C
quainted with other boys and girls
there, and naturally we accept
skates with them. 1t is very rare
for us to skate with a strange boy,
for now we have our own group.
so many young people are un-
able to find friends. Their churches
have no social life, they go to nom
coed schools or they have gradu
ated I know from experience that
| most school-day friendships are not
lasting. And after school days are
over. where are young people TO
make their friends? I am 20 years
old and have made most of my real
friends in the last two years. They
are lovely friends-and most of
cly ,.itolrc
The young folks I've met there
are lust like mySelf-honest. full Of
clean fun, eager to make real
friends. and not knowing where to
make them Out of the many boys
I have met while skating. only a
few asked TO take me home. l i'm
mediately branded them as cheap,
and steered clear of them.
The girls I associate with have
a reputation for not accepting rides
home-in other words. becoming
pick ups. When we go by ourselves,
we go home by ourselves. OF course.
We Skated with strangers when We
first started. The same boys would
ask us to skate the next week, and
gradually we became friends. At
ter the boys felt they knew us we'll
enough, they asked to come to our
homes. and after meeting our par
ents. took us out. They were cau-
tious about gaining our friendship,
and we admired their caution.
Skating is a healthful, enjoy
able sport, where fine friends may
be made if one is careful. OF
course, at every place of amusement
there are fellows and girls who will
ruin the reputation of the sport
/ by being cheap. But my friends
and I do not class ourselves with
( them.
Il would much rather see young
people spending their leisure hours
having real fun at a skating rink,
than freQuenting the low. danger
! Gus dance halls, decorating street
/ corners. or meeting the opposite sex
I in other unconventional ways. Per-
/ haps some day our churches and
schools will wake up. and young
people will have their good times
under the protective eye Of our
spiritual and educational leaders.
/ Until then. I shall continue to find
my fun at reputable skating rink.
My regards to two fine people.
! I. E. s."
And our hearty thanks to the
writer's of two swell letters-with
/ sincere admiration for their ability
to manage their own affairs safely
/ and senSibly.

AnSwer-Why do you want to stop
your wife from playing bridge when
she only does it two afternoons a
week and doesn't let it interfere
with giving you a good lunch before
she starts for her game? If she
played all day and half the night
and neglected her household duties
for it you might have a kick COM
ing, but when she takes her pleas
ure so moderately I see no reason
for you to object to it.
HouSeWork is monotonouS, because
it is doing over the same things
day after day, performing tasks that
have to be endleSsly repeated and
that do not require more than one
lobe of Womans brain to do, there
is no excitement about it.
Furthermore, most women work
alone, with nobody to talk to eX-
cept the baby, and conversing with
some one who merely gurgles ga-ga
In response doesn't fill an intelligent
persons need for companionship
So after woman has gotten her
husband off to work and her chill
dren away to school and telephoned
the grocer and the butcher, she is
left to her own society the balance
of the day, and she gets fed up with
thinking the same round of thoughts
and longs to step out and see some
thing besides the four walls and
hear something fresh and enter
tanning.

with yourself to recall how bored

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6-One of the big problems the Office of Price Administration is trying to solve now is how to educate the public against scare buying" and to the same time hammer home the nec- essity of conservation of certain defense materials and products that contain them.
 Scare buying IS almost as old as merchandising itself. It's the old get while -they-la game played with all the subtleties of modern salesmanship. It's the raw materials producer saying to the manufacturer: T wouldn't do this for my own brother, but l can let you have ten tons and you better buy all of that because there prob ably won't be another ounce in l942."
 It's the wholesale sales n whispering to the retailer over a hideaway luncheon table: Joe, you better take the who'e 10000 gross. You know there aie priori- ties now and they'll hit this stuff any day-maybe tomorrow"
 It's the retailer telling his cus- tomers that he has been able to Jay in small supply of these or these and when they are gone, there won't be any more.
