w THY men want to marry
NJ certain women and don't
&. v v want to marry others, is
a mystery no one has ever been
able to solve.
A woman can be everything
admirable; pretty, clever, cap
able, pure, and men, will pass
her by. Older men, younger
men, popular men and unpopu-
lar men, no man sees Winifred
at ALL Her women friends tell
them about her; "I've asked
Winifred Martin for you. She's
a darling. You'll love her" But
they never find her a darling
and they never love her.
On the other hand, there are
women like Adele. Adele has been
a completely worthless character
all during fhs 20 years. sipdel she
was Ii. SAej has7 married three
times; she is treating Her present
husband just as she did the two pre-
vious ones, and this marriage will
end in divorce as the. earlier ones
did sSFf,
Adele is not especially pretty, nor
has she wealth. But she has some
thing that renders the average male
helpless in her talonsH She is as cold
as a female cobra inside, she is as
selfish as woman can sbe, she is

sirable, little armful Of euteness in

The impression she makes is one
Of friendliness, happiness and east
ness. If unmarried women, going
lonely and wistful into their 30s,
could grasp the value of these three
qualities, there would be no more
unwilling spinsters. I don't mean
that Adele is really friendly or
happy; she merely gives that i'm
preston.
You're Wonderful!

BY ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

You can rest" by stretching out in hammock or on the grass or sand, but you can't relax" Most people can't because the ability to relax is crippled by modern living.
 For that reason, most people must use an involuntary method of relax ing, the best of which is exercise. This relaxes you by chasing tensions out of your muscles
 Almost any brisk exercise will rescue you from your muscular tensions and at the same time give you emotional release. Walking is fine. So is a fast game of ping pong The same benefits can be derived from golf, tennis badminton and other sports.
 But if you have the facilities near at hand for swimming, you have one of the best tension chaserS of all begging you to wriggle into your bathing suit
 The boast of many a movie star is: The pool is the place to let steam out of your emotional valves, strain that bit of acid out of your system, and kick out the kinks that snarl up your nerves ;

 better stay there, even though he seas and the postwar dream-world looked like the perfect chance for making new start.
 The veteran with a family who wants to take advantage of the GI Bill of Rights to further his edu- cation is finding he can't make it on the money allowed him by the government, unless he has a nice bank-account or relatives who are willing to care for the children while his wife works. The high cost of living makes the married veterans $90 a month look smaller and smaller.
 Hence many a GI who thought Of after the war" as brave new world in which he would have his chance is going back to the same old job he had before the war, or is giving up his dream of fitting himself for new kind of work. THE COURAGE IS THERE
 And it is not always because he lacks the courage to make change Usually it is because he is faced by such choices as these:
 Going alone to a new place to make start, leaving his family behind-or keeping the family to- gether by staying on in the old hometown.
 Living in a trailer with his wife and Kids, using up the family's savings in order to get an educa- tion-or going back to the old job, living comfortably and eating well. The path that was to be aban- doned doesn't look any better than it did when he was overseas. It is just that making new start is harder to manage than he ever dreamed it would be.

Secret of Why People Drink Told by Dr. Brady

stimulant or rather I just wanted
 to feel better. ."
 That, think, is as good a psy- chological analysis of the ques- tion as any one could express in ten times as many words.
 The young man or young wom- drinks, if at all. in the hope of finding intoxication or the effect of alcohol (call it what you please) relief for the way he or she feels and alcohol does just that, as morphine relieves pain or other distress. Alcohol of course is a nar- cotlc, and as a narcotic it relieves for a while whatever the defective feels or is conscious of.
 I say defective I mean precisely what Webster says-a persons who is lacking physically or mentally. AS I firmly and sincerely believe-and please understand that whatever I may say about drinking l say, not out of any other impulse than to get young people to think twice before they begin drinking-that accounts for most drinking.
 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
 Conception After Menopause
 Is it possible for a woman to conceive at the age of 50 years. if her menopause occurred a full year ago? GD. W9
 AnsWer-Anything is possible ex- cept a mouse's nest in the cats ear. Cessation of menstruation or apparent menopause does not ne- cessarily mean that ovulation (monthly extrusion of ovum by ovary) has ceased too. Conception year after such apparent meno- pause would be highly improbable, though not impossible.
 What Trick?
 tried that trick of standing on my head which you advocate in your column for making one lively, l and all I do is lose everything out Of my pockets, fall on my back and have sore muscles for days aft erWard, not to mention tearing my clothes at the seams. e. H.
 Answer-You forget to include compensation for your loss of dig nifty. For the life of me I can't re- call having advocated standing on your head-although I think it is fine for anybody who cares to try it. Instead of that tame trick, you should cultivate the habit of rolling a string of somersaults on the floor or ground every morning and eve- ming. If you don't believe I am serious about this, send me a stamped envelop and ask for the Somersault pamphlet, which tells how to do it.
