to educate you and to give you a
chance in life. They have been
glad to do all this for you be-
cause they loved you and wanted
you to have a better chance in
life than they had themselves.
But they are human, and they
have been looking forward to
the time when their children
were reared and on their own
feet, when they could slack down
and take things easier, and when
they could spend their income on
the little treats and luxllries that
they have denied themselves. But
if you marry and bring a wife
home for them to support then
you simply send your parents
back into slavery. Don't you think
that is playing it pretty low-down
on the father and mother who
have been so good to you?
And believe me. son. you will
bring misery on yourself as well
as your parents. Not one In q
thousand kid marriages ever
turns out we'll. You are too young
to know what you want in q wife.
Don't do it. If you have no re-
gard for your parents, have some
pity on yourself.

DEAR MISS DIX: I am not yet
10 years old but I want to marry.
The girl is a year older than I
am and is willing, but my par
ents are not, giving as reason
that I am too young and am not
able to make living. I cannot
deny this. What do you think I
should do? DICK.
Answer: There is but one
honorable and decent thing you
can do. and that is to put off
marrying until you can support
a family. Providing for his wife
and children is mans own re-
sponsibility and he has no right
to dump that on anybody else's
shoulders.
Certainly a boy has very little
self respect and manhood about
him if he marries a girl and
brings her home for his parents
to support, and he is a still more
abject and deSpicable creature
when he becomes a parasite on
his wife's people.
Try to look at this matter from
your parents point of view and
see what a rotten deal you are
giving them if you marry before
you can provide for a family. Ever
since you were born they have
worked hard to take care of you

Wonen's Clubs
Women Marines of Two Wars and
7odoy's Service Hold First Reunion

/ March," Master Sergt. Louis Sa-
verino of the Marine Band, and
the writer of the lyrics. Tech.
Sergt. Emil Grasser, who formed
part of the quintette which sup
piled the musical entertainment
for the reunion.
Sergt. Saverino and Sergt. Gras-
ser were introduced by Pfc. Mar
jorie Moore, who related the un-
usual story of how the march
came into being.
"a very kind Marine Corps
Headquarters cofnmandant had
promised that the first group Of
Women Marine visitors to head
quarters would be honored with
the playing of special music COM
posed in their honor" Pfc. Moore
recalled.
Unfortunately. however, the
kindly commandant forgot about
the promise until the day before
the appointed visit. He quickly
sought the advice OF Maj. William
f. Santelmann, Marine Band
leader. who just as quickly excused
two of his best composers for a
days leave to compose the
promised music. They came
through. and the next day. the
group of Women Marine officers
were delightedly surprised with
a march composed especially in
their honor.
There was no question of sue
cess of the reunion In the mind
of Staff Sergt. Marjorie r. Wilkie,
a former Women Marine re-
serviSt who has returned to her
post in the present emergency.
II hope it'll become a yearly event
of the convention" she ex-
claimed.
