SHOULDN’T THIS GIRL
HAVE HER VACATION?
By WINIFRED BLACK
W’hat do you think of this letter?
“Dear Miss Winifred Black:
“Would you please tell me what to do in a case like this?
“My vacation is starting in one week and I have all reservations made
to go to the country with some girl friends when my
mother suddenly decides that she and my father be
ing much older, need the rest more than I do and it
is no more than my duty to stay at home to take care
of brother and get sister's dinner ready and do the
general housework while she goes away for the much
needed rest without being annoyed with he children.
“I cannot go away without saying anythin-* be
cause I have to give in my envelope every week and
just get money for my lunch and car fare, therefore
I cannot save a cent.
“It isn't as if I was one of these pleasure-mad
flappers (I am 20 years old* because I was willing to
sacrifice one week of my vacation and let mother
have one week, but that does not satisfy her either.
“It would be very much appreciated if you would
_ answer this immediately as my vacation starts next
WINIFRED BLACK *«*• WONDERING."
Well. “Wondering." how in the world can I or
any other stranger tell you what you ought to do?
What kind of a woman is your mohter, anyhow?
Has she worked hard all her life to give you the right sort of a start?
is sne urpn ann aiscouragea ana
feeling a little old?
Or Is she Just a selfish grasping
creature who wants to make you
nothing but a slave?
Is there any real reason why you
should give your whole envelope to
her every week?
Why should she anu your father
keep you with your nose to the
grindstone just because you are
good-natured enough to let therfi
do it?
Why don't you go on a week's
trip with your friends and then
come home and let your mother and
father go for a week themselves?
I don't believe any really reason
able mother will object to that, my
| dear.
I wish I knew who you are.
“Wondering.'’ and where you live
and what you do for a living. I’d
like to get a glimpse of you.
Do you realize that you belong to
a species that is almost as much be
hind the times as a horse and buggy
or a Langrhy Bang?
Most of the girls I know do as
they please, when they please, and
how they please, and they pay Just
as much attention to thetr mothers
as they do to the grass-hoppers in
the fields of clover—way. way out
’n the country where there Is noth
ing but a radio and a phonograph
and a roadster for company.
Mother is just a poor old has
oecn: something to be forgiven and
forgotten like a bad debt.
What a pity it all Is.
Mothers and daughters ought to
love each other better than any
thing else in the world.
What’s the old saying . . .
"A son’s a son till he gets him a
wife.
A daughter is a daughter all of her
life”
What an absurd idea.
Daughters are not daughters at
all; they are just people.
Some of them are loving, kindly,
good-humored, happy people , and
some of them are mean, stubborn,
ill-tempered. disagreeable — and ,
that's all there is to it.
I know daughters who wouldn't1
lift a finger to save their mothers
from dying of starvation.- and I
know mothers who are nothing but
cold-hearted bundles of egotistical
selfishness.
Mary Mean is Mary Mean whether
she is a mother or a daughter, and
Generous Gertrude is Generous Ger
trude whether she's an old maid or
v grandmother or a mother or a
dpughter.
What do you think about Wonder
ing anyhow, ladies and gentlemen
of the jury? wrhat would you tell her I
to do?
