Girls Are “Wild” Today it is Because the Men Demand They be so-Hence, Men Must Marry That Type or Stay Single

with, most of whom come from families in the middle and upper brackets of our present social strata, the families that are called "nice." Here they are: We have found 75 per cent of the girls drank; 80 per cent smoked habitually; 95 per cent necked after the first or second date; 50 tio 55 per cent were of easy virtue, and to a. girl they liked to hear and tell smutty jokes and stories. How can we face the future with a happy v prospect of a decent married life when all _ " our experiences have proved conclusively that ue have two strikes on us (to coin a. phrase) before we get up to bat? THE COLLEGIANS.

Bellevins as I do that the purity or t-he race and the welfare of our country depends upon the chastity of women and the integrity of the home, I am daily saddened and flllllulled at the evidences of the low ebb to which mortality has fallen among girls, Not only girls who have had no advantages of education or association or upbringing, but also girls who 8P6 0011886 81111411111165.

“I am pretty and young and intelligent. I dance well. I am good at all sorts of sports. Boys are attracted- to me when they first meet me, but when they date me once-and find out. that I won't. neck or go the liru t they never take me out again. They simply drop me. What am I to do- , keep my self-respect, or be a. wallflotver and an old maid." ls their con- _. stant wall. l g Now I hold no brief for these wild women who are so eager for a good i time that they are willing to sacrifice their honor and all that a woman

should hold sacred and above her life for the sake ol‘ having a good time. , It fills one with pity, as well as contempt, to think of a “nice" g.rl selling 1 herself out cheaper than the lowest drab ‘on the street for the price of a l movie ticket, or going to a roadhouse to drink bud liquor, or to a party that i she knows she will not. be asked to again unless she gets drunk.

But. this is to be said for these giixs: Their sin is in the heads of the men who make them what they are and then don't want to marry them. For it 1s true that the fast girls, the girls who have flung all sense of mod- esty to the winds, who have no scruples or inhibitions left; the girls who drink and carouse with men are the ones who have the dates, who have the good times and the most attention from men, while the good girls sit at home with few boy friends to bear them company or take them about.

Men have always been the arbiiers of women's conduct, Women have always been what men made them. 1n the days when men demanded virtue and purity from women every maiden was as unsullied as snow. Now that men want women to carouse w.th them they've got them, and they don't appear to l-ike them. At least not for wives and the mothers 01 their children. But it is their fault. Every man is his sister's keeper.

1t is certainly the height. of inconsistency for these twenty-six young men to devote all of their time and attention to wild girls and then com- pla n that. they cannot find any one fit to marry. 1f they had hunted for a wife among the good girls for there are plenty of them left, they could have found their hearts’ desires. '

Dear Miss Dlx—What can. I do with a husband who has the reading complex? He never lifts his eyes ofl of a book, magazine or newspaper. or says a word when he is at home. Sometimes I could scream because I have to sit in silenoe while he reads, or if I try to talk to him he just mum- bles without hearing what I have said. 1 have only been married two years. I am young. I would like to go about a little. » And I would cer- tainly like some conversation on the side. What can I do to make him 100k at me sometimes instead of a book? A WIFE. Answer: .

, Curing the reading habit is just about as difficult as curing the dope habit. To those who have it, the pnntcd word is an allure they cannot resist. Their eyes ‘are drawn to it by an irresistible attraction. Their hands reach out instinctively for the book, paper or magazine, then they pass into a kind of oblivion that makes them deaf to all that goes on about

them.

This makes the bookworm a trying mate for the radio addict, or the movie fan, or the bridge hound, or just one who likes the sound of his or her own voice. There is no remedy for this kind of pest. He or she just has to be endured and their mates be thankful that they are no worse. You might try making a. compromise with your husband and tell him that 1f he will step out with you a couple of evenings a week and give you an hour of conversation a day you will let him read in peace. And here is a thought: Why not try to acquire the reading habit yourself?

ARE YOU “DOWN" AND LONELY?

Or do you attract by the BEAUTY of your radiant

cheerfulness?

CHECK OVER the people you know- lhe cheery ones and the sad, serious ones. Which are Lbe moat popular? The cheery one: of course, ‘ their company is attractive and an inspira ion to others.

If you are not cheery, popular and the recipient of thrilling invitations, the chances are you are run-down, lack pep and enthusiasm and have not the energy to “go places"—you lack the beauty of cheerfulneee that f: born of good health.

None of the medicines I took seemed to do me any good. However, since I have taken Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills I have gained five pounds.
