CHILDREN SHOULD ALL HELP. SUPPORT OF AGED PARENTS

Doro

Says-

Ii Is Callous And Dishonor-able To Throw The Whole Burden On One Or Two Members Of The Family

Dear Miss Dix-J am the sole support of several members of our fam- ily Billll of my brothers married and left the burden on my shoulders. 1:11.? is a hcarv one. Do you not think that they should at least help _ - to su port their mother? They give their wives luxuries. but they leave nic to provide a home for my mother an an orphan child and to support other members of the family who are too old to work. 1 do the best I can. but my salary is not sufficient to cover all these needs ,and I feel that if my brothers had a spark of decent feeling they would help me. Don't you think so? DISCOURAGED GIRL.

ANSWER-J do. indeed. 1 think that human suture never shows itself so mean and little and selfish and contemptible as it does in the way in which so many sons and daughters evade their responsibility to their parents and chuck the whole burden of it on some one son or daughter who ls more conscientious than they are. Just how the family goat is elected, no one knows. bli. in nearly every household in which there is an " - old father or mother to be supported. or to be i tnrougli a long illness the Job is wished off to some one son or ier instead oi all of the children doing their share.

All fliould Help Il a;l hollli‘. lend a hand in bearing the burden, it would be hard on 1'. .i.i vrcre w contribute to the old people's support, would touch m: llgllllji. But it is a crushing load ii it is laid on one pair of s lili(l ‘ullitnkruptlng to tihe meager salary that has to stand all ii upon livr is just as much John's and Mary's mother as she is Tom's 1'5 inoziier. She has done lust as much for them. They are .~.iii:<- obligation to care for her. But John can't help Mother ilk‘ is buying a new car, or reiurnlshing the house. or sending the 1.411 oil to n11 expensive school. And Mary can't have Mother stay llil‘ bf cuusc she llil-S a small house. or Mother gets on her husband's

1e l s, Aiiil so they leave Tom or Susan to make all the sacrifices and out lip witli all of Mother's whims.

1 1i cold, callous dishonorable thing for selfish sons and daughters l'(‘,5liOll$lbllll\‘ to their parents and force a brother or sister j ior tiiciii, and it is a pity that the poor put upon brothers .\ i'.u iio: compel these quitters to contribute their quota to their siPQlXlflf.

iitlrice to you is to refuse any longer to be the family martyr. Tell ' ilicrs that you are going to take the case to the Domestic Rein- - Court and ask that they be made to pay their part toward support- parcnts. They will come across quickly enough when they know will be disgraced by the law compelling them to do their shale .. ng care of their fathfr ‘and niotliers.

Problem of Social Misfit

uimir Dorothy Dix-What would you do if you had been born in the 1 l country where your family was so poor that they lived in a little so busy trying to get enough to eat that they didn't know there _ 1 ‘things as social graces and accomplishments? I managed to we... .113 iriiy through high school, came to the city and got a job, married i pupil, succcssful business man and we are very happy. But since I don't ‘tn y: 110w to dance, or play bridge or do anything his friends do, 1 find ZlLiL I uni a social misfit. Should l. try to learn to do the things they do? [ wculli like to, but I don't want any of them to know I am so dumb, so 1 zioift know how to go about it. 1 often wish I were back in the hills where f crime from, where I was very popular and admired. Please,tell me what to do. A WIFE . i\.\'.<\\‘IiR—Any' woman who has had the brains and energy arid ambi- tion to climb as far up the ladder as you have has it in her to go to the top if she (loesiit get faint-hearted and qu . And l um sure you won't do that, for your husbandfs sake as well as your ovrn. For his future sutxzcss will depend just as much upon your ability to nt yourself into his crowd as it will upon his own talents. And w do this you will have to learn to play their games.

.\l_\'

Consult a Teacher so don't consider it dumb in you to go to the best teacher you can . .d lczirn how to dance .01" to a. bridge expert. It i5 the only intel- liq. ll ' ing to do and nobody will criticize you for doing so_ In fact. inriiii- women who have always danced and played bridge make s. point of taking lessons when some new step becomes popular, or some new play in bridge Ls introduced.

Anvway- wherever you go to parties or dinners or clubs, you will be continually asked to dance or play bridge and you will feel awkward i1‘ vou (i0 not know how to do so. Your partners will not care when or how you lPflrll. just so you are a good dancer or play a good game.

The old saying that we are never too old to learn is true of the social graces as well as of everything else. Don't draw into your shell or turn hermit _i1i=t because you did not have the advantages of social training in your youth. DOROTHY DIX.

Marica Blooms for Months

Lovely Marisa wiih its iris-like flowers! There's sheer thrill in watching it blossom.

One day. a bud appears near the tip of what you supposed was an ordinary leaf. Observe closely, for in less than an hour iis fragile petals of while splashed with violet burst into glorious bloom.

The Msrica flowers joyously all winter and right into spring, espec- ially if you water the plant fre- quently-es often as twice a day in dry rooms. But Marica's a hardy plant and will stand extremes of temperature.

To grow new plants from your Marica, pot the little plantlets which appear near the lips of leaves after flowers die. Put an inch of drain- age material in the bottom of each pot, add good garden soil.

Delightful, too, It this time of tho year are the scarlet-ironed Christmas cherry and the cineraria with its pink and purple flowers.

Our IZ-pagc booklet iells how to make these and many other favor- HA! thrive iddoorl. Feathery ferns, bulbs for soil or water, flowering and foliage plants; vines for bracket pots; window boxes. How to avoid plant pesis.
