his own daughter might not con-
trive to make a hasty and unap-
proved war marriage.
1t is not only the right but the
duty of parents of girl under Is
to try to talke her out of war mar
riag4, to try to get her to subSti-
tute a long engagement for hasty
wedding.
But If the parents fail and the
girl manages to marry in spite Of
them, what good possibly can
come of the parents insisting on an
annulment, that neither the young
husband or wife wants.
All that their opposition possibly
can accomplish is to make the
girl feel that all the world is
against her-that no one Is ready
to stand by.
Unless the girl Is actually a child
less than 16 years of age, say-it
looks as though the best solution
is to let the marriage stand.
SOME WILL BE HAPPY
There always have been girls
who married when, according to
their parents, they were far too
young. But those marriages have
not necessarily been doomed to
failure. Often they have been
happy.
With juvenile delinquency what
1t is today, and with thousands of
girls deciding not to wait for mar
riage, it doesn't seem sensible for
parents to fight a daughters mar
riage in the courts. Shouldn't they
rather be thankful that their
daughter dignified her love by
marriage instead of falling for the
Victory Girl philosophy that is
bound to hurt a girl worse than
even an unhappy marriage that
ends in failure?

impossible for most brothers and
sisters TO be friends. But there is no
reason why they cannot learn to be
friendly and wise parents strive to-
ward this end with their eyes open.
Taking age differences into consid-
Grafton, they do not force brothers
and sisters to play together, but
will encourage each child to make
his own friends.
Another point-brothers and sis
tiers are said 10 be more like each
other than they are like either of
their parents. In view of this it is
foolish for a parent TO decide that
certain child takes after him and
proceeds TO favor him on that &C
count. when the youngster prob
ably has more in common with his
brother. Even when it is uncon-
sciously expressed, favoritism is a
common cause Of rivalry among
children.
For their best qualities to -four
ish. boys and girls need to feel Sc
cure in their parents affections. A
sense of security depends upon
each child being appreciated for
himself. To discourage teasing and
ridicule, family conversation
should never be allowed to take a
personal turn. Excessive praise OF
one child. as we'll as excessive
blame. should be avoided in the
presence Of others and in particu-
lar before brothers and sisters. This
enables each child TO maintain his
self-reSpect and courage.

always. We have IL on excellent
authority that it is not good for
man TO be alone. so surely it isn't
good for woman either A lone man
can usually do something about his
loneliness. but, unfortunately. it Is
not always possible for a woman to
do so. She may manage the COM
panionShip OF another woman, If.
as and when IL is convenient for the
other woman. but no one but a lone
woman knows how unsatisfactory
such companionShip may be. She

The woman who feel s-nay,

to be pitied even more than she
pities herself. which Is saying a
good deal. It's one thing 10 do with
QUO NAL e companionShlp from
choice and something quite differ
ent to do without il from necessity.
A manlesS female is considerably
handicapped. She hash the social
value of the Mr. -and- Mrs. combi-
nation. besides which she is re-
garded by her sex as a predatory
animal and by men as their nat
ural prey. An extra man is the gods

extra woman is an odd woman, the
term being used advisedly. Only
rarely does hostess need an odd
woman. Most hostesSeS feet them

any number OF extra men.
Humiliating TO Her
If there is anything more humil-
iating to the woman. especially one
who has always been accustomed
10 pick and choose among men, IL is
to find herself tagging along with
a couple or in position where
someone is trying TO snare an es-
cort for her.
The woman who can treat men.
naturally. not as something to BE-
catered to. has a better chance OF
forming friendships with them.
The average man has a horror OF
being placed on the defensive. He
shuns women who are coy and in
clined to make sentimental passes
at him-traits your lonely woman
is apt TO have, by the way. He runs
like a deer II ne thinks woman Is
cunning for him. which he usually
does If she shows any marked in
terest in his life or works.
In short, the technique OF being
a widow. or lone woman. is not as
simple as it appears. She must
seem to enjoy independence with
out being aggressively independent
for If there is any type man
detests it is an independent woman.

STARS UNDER WRAPS

Hollywood-Spring and summer
suits and dresses. though attrac-
tive and comfortable. are sorely in
need OF some sort OF wrap TO ward
off coolish evening breezes. In lieu
of bulky topcoats, the really smart
women are wearing variety OF fur
scarfs and fur jackets.
With a black crepe suit-dress
with modified front drape. brace
let-length sleeves and simple neck
line, Ann Sheridan wears a hip
length sable jacket. The back is set
onto widish yoke and rippled. The
front is bowknot tied.
Joan Leslie wears youthful
braided mink scarf over a light
weight blue wooden suit. The ends
of the scarf are loose. giving the
appearance OF a gigantic pig-tail
tossed over the shoulders.
Dolores Moran's briefest- brief
capes is stunning over a short
jacketed navy wool suit. The cape
is of wild mink and features a small
but flattering Peter Pan collar.
On the truly elegant side. and
a perfect complement for the dressy
suit is Ida Lupino's black fox stole.
Her suit. Of black faille. is feminin-
lied with a ruffly white blouse.
She adds trio of large pink roses
clustered into a hat.
With a classic black satin dinner
suit Nancy Coleman wears jacket
of black broadtail. 1t shows full
gathered back and a bowknot neck
line.
