Soon after this statement was made, the shock method-ln- sulin, metraznl. electric - became known and thousands of former mental patients are now home and at their former occupations. thanks to this treatment. While shock treatment cures or eatly helps mental patients who behave oddly and cannot get along with others or make a living for themselves or their families. it "K'r”.'Tc! ..-m'm5;rmx.s - EgHousehoid Scrapbook?

MISS DIX: What are the advantages and disadvantages of a late marriage? WALTER ANSWER: That early marriage does not make for happlneu is abundantly proved by the fact that it ends for oftener in divorce than does the marriage contracted later in life. Development is determined by Nature. not by propinquity. The kind of men and women we grow . - into depends upon our heredity, our education. our brains. the way we were trained in babyhood. and it is just chance when at boy and girl start out with the some mental and moral equipment. the same background and develop along the same lines. YOUTH NOT ADAPTABLE Nor is there any truth in the other sentimental theory that young people can adapt themselves to - .-, each other better titan older people. .Nothlng in the world is so unadaptable as youth. because youth is pure selfishness and arrogance. It takes time. It takes age. It takes experience. It takes batting up against the world to teach us the folly of trying to break down stone walls instead of walking around them. So those who marry late in life need not feel that their waiting has been a total less. They may not have quite so many illusions, but they will have a lot better chance at happiness. Then they will know they are getting what they want in a life companion, instead of gambling on it as the young do. The men and women they marry will be mature. Their habits and tastes formed. They will be intelligent or dumb. Dependable or fiighty. Domestic or play girls and boys. Extravagant or thrifty. Interesting or boring. Marriage will be.a sure thing. not a grab-bag proposition. Furthermore. those who wait to marry until they are financially able to marry certainly stand a great deal better chance of making a success of marriage than those who marry on n shoe-string. or no struts: at all. For starving together doesn't seem as romantic an ad- venture nfter marriage as it does before. All of which adds up to saying that marriage. like all other good things. is worth waiting for and working for. I. DEAR MISS DIX: I have an only son 24 years old. He has been going with a fine girl-the very one I would select for him as a wife. But lately they have broken up because they do not feel they should marry without having something saved up. My son has a job which doesn't pay much. but he has had a couple of advancements for his good work. Now the question is: Shall I give my son enough money so he and the girl can marry? I am in comfortable circumstances. but not rich. Should I give him this money now. or leave it to him when I die? Should I let him lose this splendid girl and maybe never marry? Should parents help their children. or would help spoil them? AN UNCERTAIN FATHER ANSWER: Give the money to the boy right now so that he can marry this girl whom he loves and of whom you approve so highly. If they are forced apart now. it may be the ruination of two lives. I believe that parents who are able should help their children to maI'r.V. Just as they should help them to get it start in business, For a girl to get a good husband .5:-tiles her in life. For a boy to get a good wife is to give him not only the most. steadying influence and the greatest spurt to his ambition that you can. but also to provide him with an invaluable working partner. And so the parents who can help. their daughters to marry the worthy but poor young men they are in love with, and who can help their sons to marry the right, sort 01 girls. make the best investment of their lives. ' As to how much parents should help their children. that depends on circumstances. Fathers and mothers are very foolish when they give everything to their children and lmpoverish themselves. They should keen enough of their property so that they will always be jndg. pendent and so that they will not have to live with their children or be burdens on them. but after they have done that. they should not wait until they are dead to give anything to them. DEAR MISS DIX: I want to get married. but I know no me". My job does not bring me in contact with them. there is a change in the structure. which disturbance causes severe depression. deep grief. or intractable pain. Fortunately. by a small operation. cutting a nerve or tf nerves sutpplytnz the parts of the brain which control depression. grief. and pain. thousands of these patients have been discharged from hospital to their homes and many to their former occupations. So successful is this treatment. lohotomy. being periorrrteri all ovcr of patients able to leave hospital. that. together with the shock treatment. have been doing during the past. few years.

The reaction has set in. he add- ed. and the New Year will see a complete reversal. . "women are wlsing up to the fact that men desire feminlrity in a girl. The guys don't want freaks who paint and clip themselves until they take the appearance of hai(-drown- ed oocker-spaniels." Westmore predicted the "Scft book" will bring these features in 1951: Skirts will be up to s more-aliu.r- ing length: Make-up -will return to soft. past- cl shades instead of the dark. heavy 00: Bosoms will be larger and more of advice to American women: "If you want to get and hold your man. shorten your skirts. lengthen your hair and soften yqpr face." 6 Capsule Review "me Magnificent Yankee" is I splendid contribution to American history.
