children's sake, as we'll as their own

children's sake, as well as their own.
Mr.. x.
Answer think you are right,
but my contention Is that because a
husband and wife have ceased to
love each other is no reason for their
leading a cat-and-dog life together,
and that it is perfectly possible for
them to maintain a peaceful home
for the sake of their children if they
will exercise the same amount of
self-control that they do to get along
with people in the outside world
I have never seen any reason why
husband and wives should not be
gentlemen and ladies and observe
the same decencieS of conduct with
each other that they do with perfect
strangers. And so it seems perfectly
possible to me, even for those who
have found their marriage a fail
ure, to put it upon a basis OF
friendship in which they could
treat each other courteously and
refrain from recriminations and
quarreling and abuse.
A man in business has to deal
with many men whom he person.
ally dislikes, and whose ways and
manners get upon his nerves.
Often his closest business aSsoci-
ates are men who are utterly in
congenial to him, but because it is
to his advantage to get along with
these men he controls his temper
and his tongue and makes the best
of the situation. Why can he not
treat the woman to wnom he is
married in the same way, If the
welfare of his children is at stake? :?
Similarly woman who wishes
to be popular in society, who wishes
to be invited out to dinners and
lunches and teas, and to be asked
to serve on important committees,
puts a bride on her speech and
refrains from giving vent to her
temper, and making acrimonious
criticisms, and starting arguments
that she knows will end in free
for-all fight. And if she can do this
in order to be popular. why can
she not do it to save their home
for her children?
But I agree with you that if
husband and wives are going to
quarrel and make their home a
perpetual battle-ground, the sooner
it is broken up the better for the
sake of the children. To be reared
in such an atmosphere skaters
the children's nerves. 1t destroys
their every ideal and gives them
an utter contempt for both parents

This one feels that as long as we
fellaS have set down certain rules
of dress we should cling to them
closely and observe the rigid stand
ards we've adopted. e.
Mems clothing faults, according
to this source, are:
l. Wearing belts instead of sus-
penders.
2. Wearing colored pocket hand
kerchiefs.
3. Tying scarfs instead of folding
them across the chest.
4. Choosing too light a gray color
in felt hats.
s. Wearing double breasted suits
If the man is especially short and
heavy.
6. Combining with suits the wrong
color shirts and ties.
7. Wearing the wrong length jack
cts in suits.

Such materials as pique, linen,

In college we knew several cO-eQS
who were always on the honor roll,
and never missed dance.
Oh, yes, it can be done. Sally
Superbrain doesn't have to resign
herself to a dateleSs youth and a
lonely old age. She can be attrac-
tive to the other sex-but she's got
to realize that she can't do it just
by winning scholastic honors.
Nobody ever fell in love with
Phi Beta Kappa key, nor did any one
ever choose the Encyclopedia Bri-
tannica as his favorite companion
for life on a desert island.
Sally should understand that she
can't pit brains against beauty and
charm, and hope to compete success
fully for the attention of boys. And
why blame the boys? Does Sally feel
her own heart doing double nipups
because some boy she knows has
brilliant mind? Oh, no! Instead,
she probably palpitateS because of
some fellows dark, wavy hair, nice
eyes or devilish grin.
On the other hand, Sallys brains
don't need to be a drawback. OF
course. if she parades her smartness,
using it to make boys feel inferior
to her, it's going to be long time
no see" as far as dates are con-
cerned. Boys like girl who makes
them feel important, not one who
lets them see that she thinks they
are bit on the stupid side.
But if Sally refuses to be greatly
impressed by her high grades, and
if she makes herself as attractive
as possible, no boy will hold her
brains against her. In fact, they'll
be an added asset.
The truth of the situation is that
a lot of girls realize. consciously or
unconsciously, that they lack charm
and try to compensate for this de-
feet by eXcelling in mental matters
Which is all very well, if that's what
these girls really want They may
win scholarships, carve out careers
| for themselves and get their names
in the papers, but they won't find
romance unless they try to correct
that lack of charm instead of merely
compensating for it.
The smart girl who finds herseli
dateless is apt to grow bitter. She
feels that she is superior person
yet she sees the beautiful-b dumb

girls getting all the masculine atten-
ton. Instead of realizing that She S
got to offer a little charm along with
her brains TO interest a boy, she's
apt to become broodingly resentful.
Or she tries to bolster her own ego
by resorting to caustic wit-and the
fellows run away farther and faster
than ever.
So we'd urge any brainy miss to
indulge in a little personal stock
taking if she's worried about lack
of dates. Has she been ignoring
her personal appearance, not both
ering to learn to dance, making no
effort to get into social affairs, never
worrying about being pleasant to
people?
If that's the situation. it's high
time that she gave little thought
to her face, her figure, her hands
her hair and her clothes. She
should learn some of the social
graces, like dancing, party giving
and light conversation. But. most
of all, she should start taking her
brains a little less seriously and
become sincerely interested in other
people.
If she shows a disposition to be
fun and to be friendly, she'll have
her share of dates, no matter how
high she stands on the honor roll.
Many a bright girl feels bitter
because the opportunity to at
tend college has been denied her,
and many smart boy feels the
same way. But college isn't the
only way to get an education.

miss, you'll get a good licking and

and that's all he does"
Threats are one sure way of
teaching disrespect and disobedi-
ence. The child who is threatened
with dire punishment that never
materializes learns to believe that
1t is quite unnecessary to pay any
attention to what is said to him.
And along with that he gets a
feeling of contempt for the one
who is forever shouting threats and
forever failing to enforce them.
There is no need for threats
There is no telling what the cir
cumstances under which the threat
is to operate are to be- Conditions
may be so different that the threat
appears Impractical, its. enforce
ment impossible. Children do not
look ahead to consequences of be-
havior very much. They usually
live in the present moment and all
memory, or meaning of the threat,
is lost in the activity and interest
of the time. The threat does not
work, and yet it has been uttered
and the child has heard it. If it
is not enforced he learns 1t is no
more than an idle word. If it is
enforced he learns that it is stupid
and unjust most of the time
Either way it does not work
1t is better to teach a child to
obey by offering him the best kind
of experiences in obedience. BY
the best kind I mean those that
teach him that obedience makes
him safer, more comfortable, hap
pier. Experiences that teach him
that his parents orders are given
for his own sake, not theirs, are
most effective in teaching obedi-
ence.
When it is time for action against
disobedience, act without delay.
Don't threaten beforehand. Wait
for the time action is needed, then
act intelligently, without temper,
without fear, in the child's interest.

For Mature
Women
Figure Faults May
Be Corrected by
Good Exercises
Bv Patricia Lindsay

DV utFfCIu Ltu0O y
The mature womans chief figure
flaws are stopped shoulders, flabby
abdomen, dropped bust and thicken-
ing waist, heavy thighs and hips.
These are the most common-a
woman may have all or she may be
guilty of just one or two.
Fortunately, all of these figure
faults may be corrected through
exercise if the woman will first BAN
ish any joint stiffness. The body
must be limbered before it can be
recontoured. Many older women
are now joining exercise classes at
salons or gymnaSiums-long-term
affairs-where they can start gradual
limbering and work up to reducing
and refashioning. Such course Is
bound to lengthen ones life span,
for when a mature woman becomes
much overweight she is flirting with
poor health.
Here is a program of exercises
which any mature woman can prac-
tice daily:
Exercise 1--Sit on the floor, stretch
arms upward and rock hips hard
from side to side. Then lie back
slowly until head touches the floor,
relax and sit up slowly. Repeat 10
times. This is good hip-slimmer.
Exercise 2-Lie or the floor, stretch
your right arm upward and your
right leg downward at the same
time-trying to make one side OF
your body longer than the other.
Alternate on the other side and
repeat eight times. Very good
for posture and coordination OF
muscles.
Exercise 3-Stand up straight and,
keeping elbows high, push the fist
of one hand against the palm OF
the other. Push hard, relax and
repeat. This strengthens muscles
of the bust and helps to straighten
stopped shoulders. But keep your
elbows high throughout exercise.
Exercise 4-Stand erect, hold a
1 jumping rope or 1.-the line. Curl
toes of one foot over it, pushing
heel lower than toes. Keeping knee
straight, raise the leg high as you
can in front of you, pushing on the
| rope with curled toes. Contract
abdomen muscles hard at the same
time. This is an excellent exercise
if done properly. 1t firms abdomen,
hips, thighs and is splendid for tired
feet and lowered arches.
