NOV. 13, 1923. Aim of All,^ Despite Sex, Is Wedlock BY MARTHA LEE. Every woman, even though she has mapped out her career and a manless existence, deep down in her heart, wants a husband, home, and family. It is the natural order of things. Since the days of the Neanderthal man, the male has sought out his mate, and she has made a home f*r him and borne his children. Different manners of courtship have evolved from the cave-man style, although that will always be a i*vorite method of approach. The shrewd female, too, can lure her prey and, bv her wiles, make captive. Feminine cunning can ar range circumstances so that by strategy the man can win over seemingly unwilling maiden. Instinct Is Primal Men and women were made so that the recognition of sex is a primal instinct, and an instinct that will not be denied. Civilization has repressed this instinct to the ex tent that it has made it conform to definite rules and standards of conduct, but the instinct, conscious ly or unconsciously is present, and makes itself known in countless daily acts that have become habitual. It is the desire to please the opposite sex that brings about revo lutionary changes in fashions; that encourages the manufacture and sale of millions of dollars worth of cosmetics and “beauty aids’’ a year; that adds impetus to enormous ex penditures for flowers, candy and theaters, to say nothing of night clubs. The aim of it all, of course, is marriage. Women can not be blamed for desiring the haven of an institution that, so obviously, is protection. They exercise charms that the man they desire might find them a fitting companion with which to settle down and make a home, and follow the course planned for them by nature from the be ginning. Dear Martha Lee—Three years ago I started going with a gentleman whom I have known since I attended my first party, when I was 16. We went steady for about a year. He told me that he loved me. and 1 that I loved him, for he Is the only man I ever have loved. One evening, telling me he had some thing Important to say, he told me he never intended to marry, but that he always would think highly of me; so we parted. I have never gotten over it. Since then I have been told that he has told the same things to other girls, In a word, he loves them and leaves them, broken-hearted. He told a mutual friend that he intend ed coming over to see me again. Would you accept anv invitations from him. or do you think he -wenht 'do the same thing again? He is not a young man. Miss Lee. He Is 39 years old, and I am 35. PEGGY BLUE. It lx said that a man has no right to monopolize a girl’s time, particularly that of a girl no longer young, if he has no intention of marriage. It seems a shame that you have learned to care for this man who dabbles at love as a broker dabbles in stocks. A man of the type you describe certainly is not admirable. Then, it would do no harm to see this man occasionally, if you do not give him all of your attention. It may be that he likes you, ad mires you, enjoys your company, and a friendship of that sort with a companionable man often is very precious.

THE WEEPING MUSE i IS Modern Industrialism about to deal the Art of Music the saddest blow of its history ? To blame Machinery as an Instrument of Decadence may seem startling, but it is true that Machinery in the form of Mechanical Music is elbowing Real Music out of motion picture theaters, thus denying to the masses v the cultural influence of a Fine Art. f Surely, if machine-made music displaces the artist in thousands of instances, the incentive for any individual to improve his talent—so necessary in all art—is mini " mized and music can no longer hold the cul tural value that it has possessed. Any art is dependent for its progress upon the num ber of its enthusiastic executants. Do you, Mr. Reader, find the pleasure in Mechanical MuSk that you do in Real Music? If you believe that Real Music should be sav£d to the masses who -attend Motion Picture Theatres, make your opinion known to the manager of your favorite theatre. Very likely he will appreciate your frank ness for he wants to please his patrons.
