thinks important. Until then,
she should be let alone. Joan
has too good a mind to waste
it all on nothing but feminine
nonsense.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
There are problems in this
family, but they aren't all Joan's,
nor are they of Joan's making
The problems belong rather to
the mixed-up parents.
Each parent has very definite
ideas about what ought" to in
terest Joan, and each has atti-
tudes that win strongly influence
and undoubtedly complicate her
life.
Both parents seem to see in
tellectual pursuits as in direct
opposition to feminine" ones.
The mother wants to throttle
Joan's intellectual interests; the
father wants to throttle the
feminine ones. Joan is now in
clined to please her father
rather than her mother. She
might change suddenly, but in
any case she could not be happy,
because she will have to feel
that she must sacrifice one
thing for another.
Mr.. B. P. is right in his feel
ing that dating and clothes
shouldn't be forced" on Joan.
But he is all wrong in setting
intellectual interests in OPPOSE
ton to feminine nonsense"
What Mr.. P. B. calls feminine
nonsense" has been of interest
to brilliant women through the
ages. AS a matter of fact, many
very masculine men have a
strong interest in clothes, social
life and cooking. Mr.. P. B. him
self might be a happier man if
he didn't treat these things with
so much contempt - and Mrs.
P. B. might be a happier woman
If she didn't feel that a woman
must restrict her interests to
this realm.
1t is true that Joan probably
would be happier if she found
some pleasure in the activities
of other girls of her age. Mrs.
P. B. might be able to guide her
gently into an interest in clothes
and dating if she also showed
some pleasure in Joan's passion
for chemistry and mechanics.

People used to stay away from

The campaign has caught on

To-day your dentists Office is

Annual Checkups
! Lately we physicians have been
advising annual checkups. Like
Jour friends the dentists, we say
that you should come before you

the ACCESSIBILITY of taking ad-
vantage of what preventive
medicine has to offer. They can
furnish statistics that prove you

periodic medical surveys.
This being true, what keeps
so many intelligent persons away

There are a number of rea-

they are prudish. They are too
sensitive to submit to intimate
