Dorothy " Letter Box- Straight Talk n. Girls Who woullﬁnsir Their - Good Name for the Sake of Adventure--

Encouragement for the Boy Who Des- pairs of Promotion

Dear Miss Dix-We an three work! h: Ilrls, fairly good-looking and well- ducnted. We are tired of the grind of office work and wish for change and adventure. The only future before us is to marry working men and to spend the balance of our lives in monotony.

- We can indulge our desire for mravei and adven- ture by traveling with men in an unconventional manner, but hesitate to take this step and burn our bridges behind us and lose our families. We have all spent a number of years in office work and the idea of continuing is very depressing. Your advice in the matter will be greatly appreciated. ‘

ELEANOR, ALICE AND MARY.

Answer:

So you are tired of the Bind of daily work and the ides. of marrying n. poor young man doesn't appeal to you and you are sllured by the ides of going off with some strange men in search of change and adventure. _ Well, believe me, my dears, 1f you d0, you will ﬁnd it. It will be I. change to you, who have always been honored and respected and treated with deference, to have other women look at you with contem II-uuua, scomful eyes and men feel free to insult you. And you will find plenty of change in the attitude of the men with whom you go on‘.

Now they no ﬂattering and admiring and make love lo you and tell you what wonderful things they will‘ do for you, but once you have pitched your caps over the windmill for them they will sing a different song. You will be bullied and sworn at and have every vile epithet thrown in your face and you won't be able to resentdt.

You think it would be s. gay adventure to go of! with these traveling man. wandering from wwh to town. New places contirlusily- 01v’! What is there gay about shabby little hotel rooms in shabby little third-rate towns where you would know nobody and there wouldn't be a thing to do except wander up Main street and look in shabby shop windows and for amuseme go occas- ionally to a poor little movie to see s. reel that you saw ﬂvs years ago? What would there be so thrilling in eating miserable, ill-prepared food that. you wouldn't think good enough to give to the dog if it appeared on your mothers table?

If than men were going to take you oﬂ in palatial private cars or on yachts that were floating palaces, to far-oil’ places of the world, if they were going to load you with jewels and. deck you out in Paris flnery, then one could sce why poor, hard-working girls might be tempted to go of! with them, even if it meant saxiflcing their good names, dishonorlng themselves and break- ing with their families. .

Or if these men hadgso fascinated you that you felt that. life without them would be binders, ashes and dust, one can see how yo ight say. "All for love andthe world well lost." But that is not. the case. , ou dont cm!

“ a rap for the men themselves. They don't interest you personally. You

would be tired to death of them in three days. Besides, they are just poor drummers, making small salaries, who can offer you nothing in the way of luxury and who would probably leave you stranded, homeless and pcnniless at some tank station within-a month.

Can you lmlglns any girl who farts born idiot selling herself out that cheaply} Aside from the wrong of the thing, any girl who would even con- sider making such a poor bargain should be locked up in the home for the incurably feeble-minded.

There is an old saying, my dear girls, that adventure is for the adven- turous and that means that ws have to put the thrill and punch into every- thing ourselves. A mountain is only a big mound of dirt and rock or it is a skr-piercirlg 968k, according to the way you look at it. A. city is just a huddle of streets and houses or it is a strange place where anything can happen, as you feel. about it. Just ls queer things can happen in Squedunk as there can in New York or Imidon or Bhlnlhll- Th! ‘Noble, that you WWII with every day have life stories as romantic as ever furnished the plot of a novel or a play. so there is no reason to go away from home in seek adven- ture. You can find it right at your slbow if you look for it.

why, love and marriage and bitrb and. death, joy and sorrow all may come to you within the next twelve months. Your fate may come into the office any minute of the day.

As for you: lives being monotone us, so is all life. Anything that we do day after day. year after year, ‘ mm ‘_ - Flying must have be- come onotonous to Lindbergh. Making pictures monotonous to Mary Pick- ford. Making millions monotonous to Mr. Rockefeller. Going to parties mono-

tonous to the debutante.

The only way we can keep life from being monotonous is to continually infuse fresh interest into our jobs by trying to do them better and in new ways. Try that for a change instead of running oﬂ’ with strange men.
