ln-laW-I get letters from per-
Ifectly normal mothers who accuse
me of bias against all maternal
parents. Nothing could be further
from the truth, which is that I
hold the entire estate of mother
hood, including mothers-in-law
IN such high esteem that I am
rlled to white heat by women who
oesecrate the title by rending
families asunder instead of abid-
ing by their God-given right of
moldlng them together. Certainly
no mother worthy of the name
would estrange herself from a
daughter and grandchildren over
a silly quarrel-or even over a
more serious one. Shed do every
thing she could to mend the rift
and maintain a united family.
DEAR MISS DIX: I am plan
nlng to be married in September
My fiance has only two weeks
vacation for our honeymoon, and
ne intends to use week of it to
make an extended trip in August
with a friend through Alabama
and Florida, including three-day
cruise to Havana. He claims he
is tired and would like to rest and
fish on this trip. 1t is beyond me
to understand a desire for rest of
this kind on the part of man
who is supposed to be madly in
love. What is your reaction?
.... "A. C.
Answer: To quote Hamlet,
There are more things in heaven
and earth, Horatio, than are
dreamed of in our philosophy
But the sight of a man who would
rather fish than go on honey
moon is something new. sup
pose any piscators among my
readers will rise up in arms
against me, but it is still a revo-
lutionary idea.
Perhaps this is your betrothed's
idea of "last fling" a final adieu
to carefree youth; the swan song
OF bachelor. Whatever the
reason. you have no choice but to i
let him go and get 1t out of his
system. I hope you're sure of
i1s devotion otherwise.

Women $ Club Editor.

Hailed as the first great movie
star" Francis x. Bushman drew
a capacity crowd yesterday to the
University Women's Club where
he was the star at the clubs week.
ly Monday tea.
Front seats were gone long be-
fore the actor arrived as fans
gathered early to see and hear the
onetime idol of the silent screen
lwho has the role of King Saul
in the forthcoming movie, David
and Bathsheba.
Assuring his audience that he
was the oldest moving picture
star in captivity" Mr.. Bushman
recalled that it was back in 1911
when he made his first personal
appearance tour. "And that was
before any of you we're born" he
remarked gallantly.
The honor guest, who was ac-
companied by Mrs. Bushman, also
Ichuckled over the days when the
movie industry was in its infancy
and revealed the secret of his
continued zest for living. "The
calendar says I am &c." he de-
|clared, But I never felt better
because I refuse to bury myself in
the good old days"
"I am often asked what has
i happened to the screen since the
good old days." he continued.
What has happened is that the
pictures are better than they
l were"
/ Recalling the techniques en-
ployed in the early days of the
movies, Mr.. Bushman said the
actors overacted. the makeup was
bad and the plots. ridiculous.
i Recently, when he was attend
| ing a revival of one of his own
Ipictures. he was so overcome with
embarrassment he said, II wanted
to crawl under the seat, although
III knew no one would recognize
me-"
! At another point, he found the
acting so funny he chortled out
lIloud. Whereupon an elderly woman
turned around to glare at him.
There's nothing to laugh at" she
!. asserted coldly.
However, he added, present day
critics shouldn't be too hard on
the early movies. Without benefit
of sound, pantomime was neces-
sary and I'VE had to act that way"
he pointed out.
| The actor also had humorous
tales to tell about the heroic roles
he played in some of his movies.
I'm those days." he says, factors
were eXpendable and we did all
our own stunts"
