TRIP, HAWAIIAN ISLANDS

Miss Mildred Maynard returned
home Monday after a vacation of
six glorious weeks in Honolulu. Miss

many friends. She stayed at the
Moana hotel on Waikiki beach.

At the risk of sounding like
Pollyanna, it becomes a duty to-
day to report today that things
are not tough all over. Business,
of course, is never good in the
night club trade and it is a mat
ter of some wonder that anyone
goes into it at all or stays in it
very long.
The year starts off badly be-
cause people are still feeling the
financial strain of Christmas and
looking ahead toward income
taxes. No sooner do they get their
taxes paid than it is Lent and
nobody goes to night clubs. By
the time Lent is over, spring is
in the air calling people out of
doors. Then it gets too hot to go
to night clubs. BY fall, people

They are a graceful pair who
seem to enjoy their work and they
have a knack for transmitting
that feeling to an audience. The
TalbotS' best asset probably is an
ability to go through polished
ballroom routine with the happy
air of a couple of people caught
up in the music and improvising
as they go along.

cuses for it any more-the Shore

hedges which surround it. And
it has been like this whenever
the weather permitted, which has
been about two nights out of
three so far. Last Friday, for
example, well over 1000 custom
ers arrived on and departed from
the Terrace during the evening
Item: The bright new Caribar
Room at the Wardman Park Ho-
tel has brought boom business to
replace the doldrums that had
settled on the Metronome Room,
which was unchanged too long.
Daryl Harpa, his rumba orchestra
and that lively and frantic Latin
American show even have had the
customers standing in line at the
door, and a line is something
that door hasn't seen for some
time. The fact that Mr.. Harpa
and the others are worth wait
ing for is attested by the fact
that the Caribar already has it's
steady patrons, who keep turn
ing up night after night.
Item: The Old New Orleans
reports that business has been so
good in the Sazerac Room since
the arrival of Singer Claire Nit
chell that Miss Mitchell has been
held over.
Item: Nino Moraes, his orches-
ira and his pretty and lively sing
ing wife, Maria Morales, have
brought new life to the Congo

orchestra than the Carlton is with

Dorothy Dix

DEAR MISS DIX: To settle an
argument, will you answer this
question: What is the greatest
sacrifice that anyone can make in
life?
Answer: I don't think that your
question can be answered cate
gorically, though I suppose that
the general opinion is that the
greatest of all sacrifices Is of life
itself. Yet it has always seemed
to me that it would be easier to
make the one big sacrifice Of life
than to endure the years and years
Of countless little sacrifices that
make ones life a prolonged
torment.
Among the greatest sacrifices
ever made are those made by poor
mothers. Every woman who bears
children goes through agony for
them, but to this the poor woman
adds lack of the proper nursing,
and SO she drags herself from her
bed of pain to cook and wash and
sew and care for them.
She goes shabby that her chill
dren may be decently dressed.
Often she goes hungry that they
may have food. She works be-
yond her strength that they may
have a playtime. She is like the
NEUROLOGICAL bird that feeds its
young on its own heart.
Great also are the sacrifices
that many man makes on the
altar Of his home. We know of
Evening star., 1950-09-12

men who continue to come back
every night for 80 or 40 years
to nagging and fretful wives
and homes that are places of tor
ment. We know men who are pa
tient sick nurses to neurotic in
valids, and we know that the
saints and the martyrs have moth
ing in goodness or suffering on
these men. who sacrifice their
hopes and plans and ambitions,
their comfort and their JOY in life
to their sense Of duty.
But, personally. I think that
the greatest sacrifice that anyone
ever makes in life is that made
by a young girl who gives up
marrying the man with whom she
lis IN love to stay at home and
take care of her parents, or to
rear the orphan children of her
brother or her sister. Her sacri-
flee is greater than that of the
mother, because she has not the
love for those for whom she sacri-
fees that would be her compensa-
ton. Her sacrifice is greater than
that OF a man would be in similar
case, because when the old people
are dead or the children reared
the man would still have a chance
of some happiness in life, but the
woman has none.
The greatest Of all sacrifices
are those that are made for ones
family. And they are rarely
appreciated.
