MISS DIX: l do not see eye-to-eye with you on the quea- tion of marriage when you ask why a girl with a good lob should wish to give it up for the doubtful Joy of matrimony. It has long been noted by me that old maids never ask this question. They all want to marry. Nor are they warned off of lt by being told not to do so. They realise that one may have trouble in this world, but they prefer to choose the kind of trouble they have. And I venture to state that no marri- age, however dreadful, is as full of anguish as the state of single blessedness. The picture of an independent life, having your own latch key and your own pay check, never in- cludes the vital fact that these things are obtained at a price. the pound of flesh nearest the heart. The average woman is devoid of ego. She lives only for men. She must have something to love. to man- age, to try to improve. otherwise she turns in on her- self. than which there is no deadlier fate. Having worked for ten empty. miserable years, T would advise every girl on earth to marry as mirly as possible ' ' Mrs. A. T CHARACTER OF HUSBAND IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION ANSWER: I quite agree with you that every woman wants to niarr", and that cvcry woman's dream of bliss is to have a husband, ClLlhivfl and a home, and that if she does not get these she feels frustrated and as if she had been cheated in life, as we all do when we 10°19!‘ i5 "l? 01" 011MB- The first hub [has been a bit overdone in kit- fail to realize our hearts’ desire. To marry, to be a helpmate to her band, to roar children and make a home, that is the career that Nature predestined for women, and that is the sphere in which, taken as a whole, they <io their best work for the world. But \\'ll£'ill0l‘ women are happier married or single depends upon tun llll'l_L'< First and foi-emost, upon the kind of a husband they pct. The wife who has a tender, loving and faithful husband has lin- doubieiu- received the best gift that God can bestow upon a. woman. And, ‘ly, upon the woman's temperament, for there are women with the hcrirts of dogs who lick the hand that beats them and who ore liappivr married to any brute than they would be if single But i1‘ marriage ii: its best is a bit of Heaven on earth, at its worst it is the demos: hell into which a wommi can fall. airings the heart of a wife who knows that her husband has ceased to love her, and that he has forsaken her for some fact- Jealousy is a bitter brew for anyone to drink proicssiaitnl woman. or the socially ambitious woman who see others prnferrcd bcforc them may not relish their potion, but it is only when sew _ic:ilou.<_v is thrown in that it becomes the gall and Wormwood that the neglected wife has to quaff.

She does not have to have her heart torn into shreds. as many a wife does, by seeing her husband boat and mistreat her children. IYNIIAPPY MARRIED WOMAN IS IIELPLESS She does not have to steel herself to the heroism of a long en- durance of o. miserable life because she has spent the years in which she iniglzt have been learning a trade that would have made her a living. ln slavery to a master who has not given her a penny for her services, and so she is dependent on him, and because she cannot abandon her children to their father's untender mercy. No woman ls more helpless and hopeless than the middle-aged woman who is un- happlly‘ n‘ iccl. Mi: co ‘t-spondcnt is mistaken iii thinking that I advise women not to marrr. On the contrary, l urge them to do so if they can find Mr. Right. Bill. I also warm them to look very carefully into Mr. Rights credcntiafs bcforc they march to the altar with him, and to be sure that he is what they want in a husband. And to the large number of women who, for one reason or an- other, fail to marry. I offer the consolation prize that a famous wo- , man once dirl to her se.\' in the days when \: spinster was considered a target for the jokcsmith. She said: "It is better to be laughed at be- cause you are not married than not to be able to laugh because you are " In these days when every door of opportunity is open to women and \\'l‘if‘l'l any woman who has get up and get about her can support herself better than the average husband could do. there is no reason for the sziiuster to siicd anv tears over her lot. True, a good job isn't a pay-off for not having a :;on:l husband, but it ls a mighty satisfactory substitute for having a. poor one. ~ DEAR MISS DIX: I am in love with a girl whom I have known all my life, but only recently realized that I was in love with her. Before I began taking her out she had met an Air Force man who was in this country for training, and before he went back home she promised she would wait for him. When she told me this I felt reluctant to continue seeing her, but she said she hoped I wouldn't stop, and I have kept on going with her. Nor did she stop me from kissing her good-night. I feel sure that she does not really love this Air Force boy, but that she is merely fascinated by his attentions, and since his departure has formed a rather romantic picture of him. People who met him tell me that he is somewhat of a wolf, with a way with women. Now I shall be leaving in o. few months for active service and would like to have things settled before I go, as I realize the uncertainty would create a disturbance in my mind and hinder me in my flying job. What should I do? Should I drop her and forget about her, or force tier to make a choice between us?

Any girl would resent being put on the spot that way. And, in the second place, the girl's mind is in such a confused state that she doesn't know what she wants to do herself, or which one of you she really loves. I think your play is to tell her how much you love her. but that you wouldn't want her to come to you unless she did it whole heart- edly, and so you are Just going to leave it on the line for her to decide Tell her you want her to think it over and do what she thinks would be for her happiness. The chances are a hundred to one that the Air Force boy was just CONFUSED having a little flirtation with a strange girl, and that he will just gradually fade out of the picture. Probably he has gone back to his home girl already. And, anyway, his glamour will lessen with distance and time and she will realibe how much more she cares for you.
