Engaged Girls Cry for Rights Say the Men Ovc*e Them a Great Deal—Love to Some Girls Means Captive in Tow—All Wrong. I*v MARTHA AIXKPi. i so many girls complain about no} ye, ting what they expect from the men to whom they are enf^iged.* It surely isn’t nil the fault of. tlie men when engagement!* are lone long wrangle about rights end! then a final breakup. t The many letters that I geceive on this subject are full of blamie for the man in question. 1 wonder/ why so many misguided girls and, women imagine that love has ‘'rlghtts?" The nlrurte you start on the basis that jour fiance owes j-ou something for promising yourself in bond./ there, is going to he trouble You rr»n’t order the human heart about acenlrding to your whims. "Haven’t 1 a right to expert that my fianre will consider nie before anyone else?” is a sample ;of many questions asked. A gill may have a rlaim to devo 1ion and attention which She'will get without th* asking if the main really loves her. Emotion isn’t a thing to control with “Don’t Park Here” signs. When a man loves a woman he usually goes right on with his likes and dislikes for other things shout him. He isn’t giting to change 1 is entire mode of life just Ijecause he has become engaged. It is selfish for any girl to expect him to do so. She ought not to be taking him to make him over. girl Is supposed, to love a man what he is, not for what he might be. I am really sorry for some men who are made miserable by s\ioh girls. He is entitled ito bow ties in stead of four-ln hands if he likes them, jind for pie instead of pudding, even though the girl may not agree with him. < When a man Is honest enough to make known his prefesence for cer tain of her girl friemds, the girl shouldn’t become hateftil with jeal ousy just because she is wearing his ring. He has a right to admire a pretty girl on the street. The girl should not think he Is struck blind by her own charms. It’s no use, girls, to try to narrow the men’s lives to just you. You in vite boredom. It isn’t normal for a human be ng to focus on one thing oil the time. Just remember we are !l individuals. Freedom Is craved y all of 119. Neglects Her. Dear Miss Allen: I am engaged to i young man who says be loves me ery dearly. I think a great deal of him. This ypung man used to come to see me quite often for about two ■ ears, but since we have become en gaged he seems to neglect coming to see ine. He comes now about once in two weeks. When he comes t al ways try to entertain him the best I can. I have spoken to him about his neglect of me and he tells me thst he is too busy to come more often. He ssem* to find time to gb to otlier pla.cos such as card parties and to the theater. He also goes to dances with out me. He never did this before we were engaged. Do' you think this young man really thinks as much of me as he tells me he does? A. "VV. it is very evident that you should break this engagement without any further discussion. Tell the man that his neglect of you Is proof that lie no longer cares, and let it go at that. Perhaps the man only Sought to win you stnd then tired of the game. Such a heartless individual is not dnuntnl by complaints. You might as well end the affair and have no more anx ious hours. Let your pride forbid you to consider this man one minute longer .even though it may b? a. pull on your heartstrings to hid him fare well. , If you have uny )ove problems or other Oltestlon* you wont answered, write to Murtlia Alien mid they will be nqsweeed ia the order they are received. — 1 —--i Today’s Events John Latenser of this city and El lery Davis of Lincoln, architects, will be honored by the Lincoln Uni versity club at a stag banquet which will be given Saturday at the Uni versity club. This party is being given in recognition of the gratuitous services' of these men in the plan ning and erection of the memorial stadium of the University of Nebras ka.

Miss Simpson will te ac companied by Mrs. C. O. Crane. Indications show that the Rurgess Nash. auditorium will be filled to overflowing with those wl^o had not the opportunity to see the plays when they were presented earlier A good many men have asked to come, and the department announces that a largo masculine contingent will be welcomed. Proceeds from the performance will go to ths building fund for a new club house. Because of the rules governing the use of the auditorium, admission will not be charged, b«* n collection will be taken. Plan Annual Revue The Junior languors feel they must express themselves. It was the consensus of opinion at the regular meeting Thursday morn ing. that “the play's the thing." so it is probable one of the delightful Junior league entertainments will be forthcoming in the spring. What opposition there was, < am<> from the older and more experienced members upon whom the heavier re sponsibility will probably fall. The members who have not heretofore participated wede. the most tnthus iastic voters of affirmation. There will lie no soliciting of ad vertisements and no effort of any kind to go before the public for money from the performance, the league be ing a member of the Community Chest. But there will be fun, both for the actors and the usual apprecia tive audience. Tentative dates for the Junior league annual conference, are May 710. the place, Denver. Doubtless a large delegation will go from here npd eastern delegates will be entci tsiwl in Omaha on their western way. I----1 Omaha Society of Fine Arts I.eon Bakst, who appears before the Omaha Society of Flue Arts, January 10, at the Brandei* theater, is tJie author of a most interesting article. “A Famous Artist Analyzes tfio Slim Silhouette.” in the last issue of Vogue. Kxplaining the link between painting and designing, lie says. 'Being primarily, a painter, the art of costuming appeared to me. at first, a sort of delightful game. I came to appreciate the more serious ramifica tions of the subject, and so. by de grees, I became a direct collaborator with the couturiers and with the di rectors of the theaters. In that way, it ha* come about that for several years my name has l>een connected with the mode.” Museum Noles. Aurora, 111., holds tne record as Uie largest purchaser of art works per capita In the world. There are iO.OOo inhabitants, and purchase* to the ex tent of $30,000 were mad'1* during the >ear 1923. This is almost an exact duplicate of the record for the year 1922. The South park board of Chicago has voted $500,000 from its fun<L« toward the restoration of tli» old Fine Arts building In Jackson park. The estimated cost of the complete work will he about $1,900,000. Those who attended the World's Columbian ex hi bit Ion jhi 1893 will remember this 1 uilding one of the gems of archi tecture. There has been « long fighi for it* preservation since the Field museum was removed to Grant park. Germany ha* abolished it* art ex port duties. Paintings, sculpture and' art* Otto crafts objects are exempt from export taxes, and it-is also un necessary to obtain any permit for exportation. This will materially irii prove the condition of artists In Ger many. Cnroifn Mundi, the international art' center yf New York, a ml the Master Institute of. United Arts, have found ed a Roerich museum in New York city. Tt will comprise more than 300 paintings by Nicola* Roerich and will lie open to the public on March 24, 1924. A book containing Roerich’s painting* will issued for this occa sion. The Society of Fine Arts has been asked for permission to repro duce th»» painting. “The Tower," by Mr. Roerich, which is in its perma nent collection. .lames Topping, who served tn the jury for the Nebraska artists' exirilii tion in October of this year, has of fered one <f his paintlrfg*. called “Mountain Solitude.'' a canvas 30x30 inches, which was exhibited at the UWicrtgo artists' exhibition in 1922. as m addition to the bUblh school col lection. Mr. Topping showed a keen interest in tin \\ork#of the Society of Fine Al ls when he visited Omaha and stated at that time that he was desir ous of doing something to stimulate ;hat work. The painting which ^ie • Hers is a charming arrangement* showing a huge mountain in the dis tance, with ti^es arid a brook In the foreground. It is a composition of much grace and atmosphere. Mr Topping lives in Oak Park, 111. He lias painted extensively in the rum her land mountains In Pennsylvania, is well as >n th£ Rookies. He paints iilmost entirely landscapes. It is evi dent from Mr. Topping's work that he has been a great student of nature and has a very certain idea of what he wishes to say. His canvases have t strength and freshness and a move ment that makes them a part of the outdoors. One of his canvases will be remembered In the American exhibi tion lmld in the galleries of the Oma ha society last spring, called "Song r»f the Wind." This painting was bought by Mrs. William F. Baxter of Omaha. * Birth \nnounfcment§. A daughter Adelaide Adrienne, was* l*>rn Tuesday to Mr. and Mr*! < hnrles D. Gould. Mr. and Mrs. Hemy Belmont ofl Lyons.

His sister hesitated for a few seconds, then laid her keys In his hand and turned away from him with a delicately In solent air of resigned weariness.

It was patent that, having once made up her ttilnd to leave her hue bund to hie own devices for awhile, she suddenly had decided to lieglti the process at once, and 1 silently ap plauded the resolution with which she put down her obvious Inclination to rescue her husband from Dicky's ini portunitles. I knew better than to talk to her, and we sat silently looking at the fire until Dicky's return. "In the phrase Immortalised our fair neighbor next doou." Dicky began, winking at- me, "your hub's delighted, so away with you and get into your togs, while Madge and ‘her bub' array themselves." He led her to the door and bowed low as she passed through it. then came back to me with a mischievous smile on his face.

I gather ahe hasn’t told him yet about going to the farm.” "No, she hasn't," I answered is he stopped and looked an inquiry at me. „ Jt s going ro he the best thing that ever happened to both of them.” Dicky said thoughtfully. “They’re ailogether too dependent upon each oilier. Nothing like a little absent ueutmeut. But what the deuce you want to go with her for is-" Perhaps I believe in the value of i he 'absent treatment,’ too." 1 said quietly.
