and 6O per cent ol girls already show serious foot defects which, i ‘neglected. may prove disabling in Jziter life. And the surprising fact is ilhat nearly all these defects are ‘cruised by faulty footwear - short land ziarrow‘ shoes. shoes that have ibeeii outgrown, and shoes that are too stiff for tender little feet or have been worn so long as to lose their proper shape. ‘

Some of the suggestions for par- ents and teachers to keep the feet nf children strong and free from ‘defects are: i1) Teach children to lcio some walking daily, and to to: straight ahead when walking, as toeing out weakens the ankles and ‘arches. 12> Bazhe feet daily with soap and wairn water and brush toe-nails. <3 lCut toe-nails straight across. l-l) Buy shoes for crmfor‘. as vcell as style; xiever permit tight‘ shoes to be ivorn. fol Keep the heels , o! the shoes straight.

Wise Girl

Miss Realises In Time Futility Of An Early Marriage

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I lln a girl in my early teenl and I am having a very difficult problem to face. My Boy Friend is in the serv- ice and has three or more years to serve. I thought I loved him and

promised to ivait for him until he could come back. but now I sec things differently. I don't want to be married so young. as my sisters were. and be ticd down with children. Also, I see how badly my parents and sisters get along with

their husbands and I clon’t want it to happen to me. I want to see something of the world and to liavo some fun before I get married, and I especially want to know more boys than just one before I make my choice of a husband. But I hate to think of hurting my Boy

Friend by breaking off Willi him. What shall l do? AN UNHAPPY GIRL

ANSWER: O Irlll young maiden. you have an old <head on young shoulders that makes you realize that most of the unhappiness in the world comes from girls and boys marry- ing before they are ready for it. This may seem a sweeping sttiiemenl. but it is the cold. hard truth, for it is a miracle when a child-marriage turns out happily.

This is inevitable because youngsters in their teens do not know what they want in a mate. still less do they know what they are going to be themselves when they grow up and are mature men and women. You are intelligent enough to have realized that. and to huvc perceived the folly of kid-marriages. for the main reason why divorce is so com- ruon and so many husbands and wives lead a cat and dog life is be- cause they married too young.

DOOMED T0 FAILURE

School boys get married before they have any way of supporting a wife. Bobby-sex girls get married before they have had any playtime. and they resent being tied down with babies and husbands. The result is the phiizindering husbands and the whining and complaining WiVL-S who fill the divorce courts.

Don‘t worry about hurting the feelings of your Boy Friend. He is almost sure to have reacted to the situation just as you have done. You have outgrown your calf loves.

DEAR MISS DIX: I am a married woman of 45. My oldest son is attending college ivhere he has met a chap who has become his good friend and whom he brought home for a week~end. This friend is a fine. upstanding young man and we have fallen hopelessly in love with each other. This young man man give me the happiness out of life that l thought l had missed. My husband has alwayrs been a rich mun anrl I feel that lie has never needed me. for we didn't have to work hard for anything we ever had.

I don't want to do anything until l have advice from you, as I knou you will see my side as any warm-hearted woman would.

UNDECIDED warm-heartedness gets u decided chill when I confront the problem of a married woman. with children. falling in love with a college boy. In my book it is one of the things that sim- ply isn't done unless the woman has far less intelligence and decency- than i give you credit for having.

Consider the situation from a practice) point of view. good husband. a fine home, plenty of money. a good social position. nearly grown children. Are you going to throw all of these into the discard for the sake of having an affair with a boy the age of your own son? Can't you realize not only how wrong it is. but what disgrace ii will bring upon you?

THE X FAMILY

By Uncle Jon

Some 120 years ago there came to Argyle shore a man Whom We shall call Mr. X. He was youna- about twenty (so we have been told). a lonely, silent fellow who never spoke about himself or his background. or where he hailed from. People who tried to draw him out got lliiie information for their trouble.

This attitude on the part of the stranger caused the curly settlers to look upon the mun us a mysteri- ous person who was not to be trust- ed. at least not too far.

Shortly after arriving in the set- tlement Mv. X built himself a tiny house close beside the water. His only Contact with his neighbors ivzis when he needed supplies. Anrl their visits to his home were few and fur between.

The money he passed out in ex- change for goods was gold coins which ‘he carried about in a money belt securely fastened about his person.

The only companion to share his lonely life was n parrot that talk- ed well and sivore better. The moment anybody set foot across thu threshold of the X home, the bird immediately’ was curried i0 ari- ntlicr room and covered with a heavy blanket. When questioned about this Mr. X said the bird was like a lot of people lie knew: talk- ed too much.

One day the curious people dis- covered the home of Mr. X sec- urely fastened with n largo ptitl~ lock. It remained locked for about two months. and tiien he was back among them with a woman and two t young boys. Tongues began to ivag. Who was the woman? \Va§ 5hr! his wife? to tlicm?
