MARRIAGE IS QAREER, TOO

Girl Changes Mind 0n Subject After Falling In Love

QM! bﬂﬁ DIX: All my life I have had the idea that I was to have a career. and now when I am Just at the age to decide what

I om really going to do, I have fallen very deeply in love.

Personally,

I order the domestic lite, but what worries me is that my family ex- pect something ivnnderful from me and I hate to disappoint them. I do not war" a career. I think that there are many more import-

everyone who achieves it, in blood and tears.

ant things in life than fame and money. What shall I do? DOROTHY H. ANSWER: You speak as if fame and fortune are something you only have i-o reach out your hand and take, and that your onlydifficulty is deciding what size laurel wreath you want and in what denominations you will take your money. Why, child, to win any sort of recognition from the world God must first have given you an especial talent, and thcnoyou

‘have to put in half a lifetime of such

grueling work and sacrifice as you have never dreamed of before you can even make a dent in the public consciousness.

OFTEN PRICE PAID WITHOUT REWARD

The price of success is paid by Worse still, so many who

do not achieve success pay the price without getting the reward. I have seen so much of this. 5c many girls who really had no talent were trying to do things for which nature never intended them, And these girls were working so hard and so hopelessly; they were striving so futilely; they were so sick with disappointment that I felt that some- thing should be done about it, and that there should be a society for the suppression of parents who decide that a girl baby is a world won- der, and bring her up to feel that she has got to do something re- markable to justify that great expectation.

So break it to your family that you are not a genius and that you are going to make a career of marriage and wifehood and motherhood. Heaven knows that there is plenty of room in that for all the intelli-

gence and energy that any woman possesses.

Furthermore, it is the

career that pays best, for it gives you as many chances at fame and fortune as you have husband and children. Any one of them may have the genius that you missed out on. and do the thing that you have fail-

ed to do.

‘EAR DOROTHY DIX:

I am married to a man who treats m;

two sons of 12 and i5 very cruelly. I-Ie a-buses them so that they are losing confidence in themselves and becoming cowed and sullen and seem to have no interest or ambition.

I work in a defense plant and make enough money to pay all of their expenses, yct their stepfather tells everybody that he has to sup-

port them. Should I leave him or not?

ANSWER:

I am very miserable as my husband is also unkind to me.

MRS. A, B. C.

I should say to leave your husband and stick to your

children. rYour first duty is to them. Their lives will be ruined if they go on living with a brutal stepfather who tyrannizes over them

and abuses them.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am about to be marrizd to a young man who loves me very much, as I do him, but the thing that holds us back (Continued on Page l0)

HAIBNETS NEED NOT MATCH HAIR

A woman's hair is her crowning glory, and one of tfhe little things which helps so much to protect the wave and keep the hair in its most becoming style is the haimet made of neal hair. These nets are manufactured only in China, and before the war were piocurabic in e wide variety of styles, shades and sizes. Now that the source of supply has been out off for some time, real hairnets are becoming verv scarce.

Here are a few hints which may be helpful to the many women who feel that a hair-net is essential to good grooming! " ause helmets made of real hair are so fine, they are practically invisible. you may substitute a shade other than the one you are accustomed to wearing. A blonds shade is unnotioeable on white or gray hair. Instead of medium brown, try u. light or dark brown, or better still, an au- bum net which will bring out the natural lights in the hair and give an attractive glint. A single mesh black net may be used instead of dark brown.

Fiaxseed and linen fibre are two valuable products of the flax plant t'|~re are distinct varieties of seed flax and fibre flax. and each ty-pe is grown for the product desired, most American flax being grown for the seed.

"Hauling hay" that is what Julie said the men at Alderlea were d0- ing this morning. However it was no g y “pattern" of hay that marke the lane and the shrubs by the driveway but straw from a neighboring farm, so that James may be sure of an abundance of winter bedding for stables and sties. Julie was spreading hBr wash then. Not like Judy with a song on her ll a to match the trill o! the rob . But a tremul- ous smile_ like a child mlight at same naughtiness. "Does up- set the fowl tp chase them with a broom? I really had to, you know, they were al staring so at me!" ahe asked ma when she came to the porch. James didn't pause to stare, nor even to pass the time of day with me when he oamc by with the load of straw. I_ was in the garden then, gathering the vegetables for the dinner -- pump- kins are on the vine this mom» lng and the bit of corn is almost mature-“Eliem he called in ass- ing "Could you hustle the dnner a little....across the creck_" ‘Inat was all I heard. That was inkling enough. I knew there was to be an early dinner, in order that the cutting might commence in the golden, triangle of field across the creek.

Rob came then and Jamie, who managed to amuse himself and "us, as we sat on a veiundah and pulled n art the recentl washed wool to d it of any clinging burra. He busied himself collecting rose hips "for jelly" so he explained. though Karolyn may have a dif- terent plan. I made a jelly in

re-war days, from the rowan tree rrles, on the lawn, where now the small birds hold daily feasts. Prett it was, like amber, very temp ing to behold. It may have been, that I was too careful with the sugar for beyond the first taste, no one could be persuaded to partake of it. Since then my effort in that direction has been a standing Joke with the family and relatives. When the preserv- iriB ll mentioned, and I because of mental telepathy, at once con- centrate on other matters, some- one ls bound to ask: “Did you get all your jelly made. Ellen?" and a laugh follows. Or do I serve a similar shade of it, pipes up with: "This is not made rom those bird berries, is it?" So Jamie's may be an experiment like mine regardless of vitamins. And then this afternoon, when the rib" grass beside the old stone door step moved in a mysterious man- ner. for there was no sign of a wandering breeze, Jamie discover- ed a personable toad there. His worship. the toad, blinked up chummily at him, when he inquisi- tlvely parted the towering grass. But Jamie, ls "kared” of toads, or so he told Jeanie when he went with her later to carry a lunch to the busy harvesters. I went along

also as a guest. I O O
