young man hoped to sooth a con-
science which was IN rebellion
over MS rejection Of the gift Of

he could raise himself higher by
setting his standards down lower.
But ne forgot that COD has set
a standard for US sill, and the
standards Of men are mediocre
alongside those of God. Christ
came down Oh earth to make men
adopted sons OF God He has set
the standard. He hath given lis
most great and precious promises:
that by these you may DE made

Some critics Of religion insist or

Widows Called Good Matrimonial Risk
Because They Know How to Please Men

ried one man, she also has q
technique that enables her to win
over her spinster sisters. For in
a sense she is a professional, while
they are mere amateurs, for she
has had a husband and, like Kip
ling'S hero. she has learned about
men from him.
She knows, as no inexperienced
girl can, how to please men. how
to get around the angles in their
dispositions, how to jolly them
along, and when to talk and when
to keep silent. The young girl
expects a man to devote his time
to pleasing and amusing her,
but the widow pets and coddles
the man.
Furthermore, a widow doesn't
demand so much of a man as 8
girl does. She isn't always calling
him up over the telephone in busi-
ness hours. She doesn't make
scenes when he is a little late ir
keeping an appointment. She il
good-natured and sensible anc
easy to get along with and knows
how to make allowances for g
man, and that makes men think
her a preferred risk in matrimony
AS, indeed, she is.

DEAR MISS DIX: One of your
correspondents wants to know
what magic formula widow uses
to enable her to marry more
quickly than a single girl. My
husband contends that widows
find it easy to remarry because
of the same qualities which at
tracted the first husband. I
think this is true because I have
been married twice and I am not
aware that I used any different
tactics as a widow than I did
when was a girl. 1t is just that
some women attract men and
others don't. AVON.
Answer: Doubtless you are right.
to degree, at least. There are
women who have sex appeal and
those who totally lack it. There
are women who have winning
ways and who know instinctively
how to rub mems fur the right
way, and there are those who
are born antagonistic to men and
who never learn the trick of
pleasing them.
But all the same, in addition
to the widow being possessed o1
the necessary amount of appeal
as she has proved by having mar

Decline in Home Building
For Few Years Predicted
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Predic-
ton that residential building in
the next several years will fail
to equal it's 194S level was made
today by Thomas S. Holden,
president of F. w. Dodge Corp.
Writing in a forthcoming issue
of Architectural Record. Mr.. Hol-
den said it was doubtful the av-
erage for the next six years would
exceed 100000 new nonfarm
dwelling units year.
The 1948 total was estimated
by Government sources at 925, 900
units.
In support of his prediction of
lower volume, Mr.. Holden writes
that "acute shortages have been
met, the rate of new family forma-
tions has fallen considerably from
the 1947 peak and is likely to con-
tinue during the fifties at lower
rate than in the war and post
war years"
The head of the fact finding Or
ganization for the construction in
dustry notes that rental housing
currently lags behind, particularly
in larger cities, indicating need for
increased building of apartment
houses, perhaps a combination of
public housing. cooperative hous-
ing and investment housing"
