THEY HAVE MADE TOO MUCH LOVE!

DEAR A. N.: Any normal person would tire in short order of steady diet of lovemaking as the only pas time And possibly one reason why your finances kisses no longer thrill you is because he has begun to feel a bit perfunctory, too; because something of his first dazzled de- light in you has faded, also.
 Of course, by now it would be reflect impulse with him, physically and emotionally, to launch his love- making routine when you are alone together. But I daresay that in pursuit of thrills, you have each forfeited (with the other) much of that reserve of personality - in speech and department = which keeps an overtone of mystery, sus- pense and mutual reverence alive in romance.
 AS to whether you would be phy- sically incompatible if married, the probable answer is-Yes. It is my impression that you have definite ly more temperate than torried love-nature; and assume that since getting engaged, your fiance has set the pace in going to seclud- ed spots to pursue lovemaking as the chief or only recreation. Which suggests that his emphasis on this aspect of sentimental companion Ship is out of all proportion to your requirements or powers of tolerance, in the long run.
 Dr. Paul Popenoe, director of the Los Angeles Institute of Family Relations, reported some eyears ago --on the basis of considerable re- search by questionnaire- that the best sax adjustments accyua. t

* We, the Women
Educate Mama, Not Three Year. -Olds

we'll soon have a larger than ever group of idle, unhappy women who are potential troublemakers.
 Of course, Mama-released from the job of training her child as soon as he reaches the advanced age of 3-might be persuaded to have is larger family and put her mind to making its home life more im- portant. But she'll have to be sold on the idea by somebody.
 Perhaps it's true that the most expedient method of giving ch!i- dren good training when they are young is to turn them over to per- sons particularly trained for the job.
 TRAIN MAMA FIRST
 But wouldn't 1t preserve Mamas 1ightful place and make for a more normal way of living if we gave Mama the kind of education to fit her to become 8 competent mother instead of just telling her she is no good and snatching her kids away from her almost as soon as they can walk?
 If we are going to revise the educational system, why don't we revise it so that all girls are taught how to handle the job that most of them will some day have the job of training children al home?

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS
Removing Tonsils Again

AVSAAVNAkA& 4UuSAS f1& dH
 I am girl of nineteen. My ton- sils weree removed six years ago, but they seem to have grown again. Often have rheumatic pains in legs and get tired easily. Would 1t be safe to have them removed again, now that infanetile paralysis is go- ing around? (R. F.)
 Answer I'd advice you to have the tonsils treated by physician skilled in diathermy extirpation. But not by any doctor who may canvass the public for such work. Send 8 stamped envelope bearing your address and I'll recommend a physician, if know of one within reach of your home.
 Postcard Duly Received
 Send at your earliest convenience Instructions for Taking the Iodin Ration" c. w. H.
 Answer-Your postcard has been received and filed sir. It will be convenient for me to answer in the early f1fties. Meanwhilee, if. you will comply with the rules, inclosing a stamped envelope bearing your ad- dress, your request will be answer ed in its due turn.
 The Old Fogies
 Our doctor is rated one of the leading men here, but he seems to cherish a mighty antipathy toward you. When I contrived to bring your belly breathing into the converse tion he bristled and disposed of the silly idea by saying: "Your lungs are in your chest-breathe with 1t as the good Lord intended you to-" (H. L. ID
 Answer-After all. 1t must irritate the old fogies and the quacks in ethical clothing almost beyond en- durance when their patients quote this and that from my despicable column. Don't poster the poor man he is probabley too busy to find out what goes on in Medicine these past twenty years.

CIVILIAN WALKIE-TALKIEs

That report that walkie-talkies will soon be available for civilian use is the greatest news about the telephone since Alexander Graham Bell said, Come Here, Don Ameche, I want you!"
 It's really going to provoke many changes in our domestic life and will be a great help to husbands. When they come home late, they can start their alibis three blocks from home And know whether to kep on going And in which direction.
 And what an ideal way for an owner to talk with his jockey dur ing race! It'll be so nice, being able to tell the boy which way the other horses went, won't 1t, MT. Crosby?

dummy and west won with the king. Another spade was led, again declarer played low and East won. The diamond seven came back, dummy put on the ten and West won, returning the diamond three. East played the nine and dummy's queen won. Declarer had discarded two hearts. At this point he had a chance to play for three-odd, if the heart flnesse won and if the club suit broke. He decided, however, to back his own judgment that two no trump was the correct contract, so instead of trying for the club break or the heart finesse, he led back and other diamond, forcing East to win with the jack. Then of course he had the balance of the tricks. If he had attempted to play for. three, he might easily have lost his contract.

In the preceding talk about blackheads and pimples gave my one-horse-and-b buggy doctor opinion that fried foods, gravy, butter, lard, salad oils, cooking oils or shortcomings, cream, pork, fat meats, greasy foods in the diet have noth- ing whatever to do with blackheads, excessively oily skin, pimples, &C., ne. Don't harbor the childish no- ton that fat or grease or oil of any kind taken as medicine or food exudes from the eskin. The sebunn (skin oiD is not of that nature. It Is a true secretion of the sebace0us glands and food fats or oils con- tribute no more than do proteins and carbohydrates (starches and sugars) to It's formation.
 tell you, young ones, this sug- gestion that you must not indulge in fried food, butter, salad oil etc., if you have oily skin, blackheads or pimples Gas a normal boy or girl of teen age may well have) is a lot of hooey retailed by doctors and specialists who, in order to impress you with their knowledge, have to say something for gosh sake, some thing 1t is hard to disprove, no matter how ridiculous 1t is or how impossible to prove, to make you forget that they have not told you what causes acne. It Is one of the neatest tricks we quacks have.
 The doctors who lean heavily on this quaint theory of too much se- bum from too much fat or oil in food are pretty good at interdict- ing some other things young people are generally fond of whether they have acne or not. Such items are chocolate, in any form-ice cream, candy, chocolate bar, icing on sake, milk shakes, chocolate favored bev- erages; nuts; cheeses of much fla yor.
 Mind, now, I do not mean to say no young person need evere exclude such items from his or her diet one who happens to bee ellergic to chocolate, for example, may have to avoid 1t absolutely. But that is no reoson for saying that all boys or girls with excessively oily skin or scalp, blackheads and pimples, must not eat any such chocolate item.
 The scientific truth of the matter, kids, is this: You require so many calories day. If you get large portion of your days quota of cal- ories from ice cream, sweetened fountain beverages, chocolate bars, fqrosted cake, chocolate milk shak- es, chocolate fudge and the like, you certainly will not have the appetite or the capacity for other more essential foods which are in- dispensable to supply the amounts of minerals and vitamins you must have to keep your vitality, com- plexion, skin and general health in good condition. In your place I would not exclude chocolate from my diet, pimples or no pimples. h. stead I'd try a little self-control and restrict my indulgence in such sweets to dessert time, and never take them between meals or in lieu of food and water as refreshment.

Teddy Klutz, aetat, 24, the young est and liveliest teacher at their Qwick-Shure Secretarial and Ex- ecutive Commercial College, Posi- tions Guaranteed.
 Late every afternoon Peony was at Winifred Homewards office, mixing Sazarac cocktails or con- fidentially helping the great wo- man in affairs too delicate for the routine hands at Attention!, work ing on the grand list of influential women all through America who were, know it or not, fated to be Winifreds future corps of Black Blouses.
 Not Colonel Marduc nor the chirping Deacon Wheyfish and cer- tainly not the anxious Dr. Planish had ever had so much fun in the invisible empire of propaganda as Peony Planish.
 A DISTURBING letter had come A into Dr. Planish from MT. JohI- son of Minneapolis, written from the Great Lakes Naval Training Center:
 T have been asked to be a spon- sor, whatever that means, for a Dinner Dedicated to the Plain People, to be held in your very fine Gladiola Hotel and to be conduct ed by three novelists, portrait painter and an alderman, at $350 plate, which is good plain price. There are lot of other names on the list of sponsors, but what botherS me is that they seem to have left out all the Plain people.
 Should I send some on? can't come myself because 1 am now in the Navy, but know quite few of the Plain People in Min neSota-a dumb farmer who hap pens to be my uncle, and sur geon who likes duck hunting, and my plumber and a chemist who went to Yale, which I guess should make him a Plain Person as that college was founded to promote plain democratic learn ing. Or do you think they might resent the imputation that they are so Plain and so lowdown that they have to have dinners given to them by liberal novelists to bring them up to a level where Mrs. Homeward can notice them2"
 Suddenly, little heavily, he liked MT. Johnson of Minneapolis, and agreed with him against all the organizators and all the ethical rap lures of his transmogrified Peony.
 The next letter in the afternoon mail was from President T. Austin Bull of Kinnikinick, inviting him to be the speaker at Presentation Day, in early May.
 If you can possibly afford the time, stay on for few days and get a real rest here in the quiet while the lilacs come out and the thin green lines of young oats look so pretty against the black earth"
 A young Gid Planish was re- born, and he eXulted, I'm going, and maybe I'm never coming back"
 NO, said Peony, Good Lord, no; 1N she couldn't possibly leave her shorthand to go out to any Mid dlewest, and besides, she didn't think the Bulls and that Teckla Schaum, that Gid used to be so much in love with, cared so much for her; and now that Peony's father and mother were dead and she had lost track of all her dumb friends in that dumb Middlewest- Besides! She wasn't going to waste all these lovely new clothes that she was (partly( paying for out of her new salary on bunch of farmers, not her!
 But she insisted on their having Real Time, a typical happy even- ing in New York, before he went West, and they had 1t, to the full splendor.

seems, to couples who enter mar riage prepared to treat that aspect of the relationship as an incidental part of true love companionship and not it's predominant consola- tion.
 Also, another authority on man. ners and morals has said, lovers continue to be attractive to each other in proportion as they add to each others repertory of social interests in the largest sense. Ex- elusive preoccupation with each personal charms leads to deadly boredom, sooner or later - as you have found. And once the spontan- eous spark answering ardor has vanished from relationship, 1t can never be recapturedr-Whether in courtship or in marriage.
 Since your engaged experience proves that, in right conditions, you are capable of vivid feeling, and proves also that your finance is eager to evoke such response from his beloved, 1t seems to me you would be cheating both yourself and him If you became his wife with only sisterly fondness to give him now.

complimented the CIO for its

message from CIO President

Thousands brought their bas-

offering jobs different from
those for which workers had
previously been trained. In re-
porting their action, the CLU
said that wages offered "in many
instances are not over 500 of
what these employees earned at
his or her former job" They
charge that workers who refuse
to take such lower paid employ
ment are being deprived of un-
employment compensation.
Want Restrictions Raised
Labor officials are urging that
any federal legislation lift a lot
of the restrictions imposed at
present by the states. Workers
who leave jobs voluntarily for
good personal reasons are re-
fused benefits in 20 states when
the cause is not attributable to
the employer"
TO make matters worse, 26
states with 42.6%O of all covered
workers now cancel benefit
rights in whole or in part when
a worker is disqualified for one
or more reasons. The former
practice was simply to postpone
benefits. When they lose all their
credits they can make them
selves eligible again by getting
new job-usually at lower
wages - and building up new
credits,

ed that the measure was the
best way of maintaining the
free enterprise system. While
opposing a planned economy,
he said he was for planning.
Secretary of Labor, Lewis
Schwellenbach was the first
witness from a Federal agency
who fearlessly collided with
business spokesmen. "The fact
of the matter is" he told the
committee, that everyone is
not in favor of full employ
ment." He continued, There
are those who believe that it is
economically desirable to have
"a large pool of unemployed upon
which to draw"
AFL head William Green, and
United Mine Workers president
John L. Lewis joined forces nj
testifying on behalf of the bill
at the same session. Their APP
spearance together led to shak-
ing of hands to the amusement
of spectators, and the delight of
news photographers who asked
for a repeat performance.
Expect Strong Bill
Observers believe that when
the final bill comes out of com
mittee, despite business, it will
be strengthened. AS result of
testimony of labor and farm or
ganization leaders, it is likewise
expected that the final draft
will not make action by the
federal government wait for the
failures of private enterprise.
However, the committee prob
ably will not include any appro-
priations, or any definite an
swers on how the federal gov
ernment will guarantee the
right to job.
Proponents of the Bill hope
to postpone hearings in the
House until it is reported in the
