A Training in
Neatness
Miss Fogg to Train Ak-Sar-Bcn Ballet Benson Society
By LORETTO C LYNCH.
iJo you Mr. Jluevi(r, in your
liuny v-ork-a dsy world lake timt to
inrultai ntatnrts in your children?
it IS a hatat, alter all, this trick of
(ring nci. Were one kbit to live
lone in a liome alys. perhaps this
habit of tiraiitrf houIJ not be so
o.rntul to liajtpiness, but in the
world of today, where all mutt live
in some sort of homely everyday con
tat Kith the other, cultivating the
haliit of nratiifte and orderliness i
quite next to godliness.
A married woman wrote me a let
trr the other day, and in it the state
that the one handicap she had all
throuiih hrr butinets clays, wat a
lai k of training in neatness.
Her mother failed, the says, to
plant in hrr mind, a a child, the
reasons for carefully wininif out the
bathtub aftrr a bath. She had never
hern trained to replace in good order
ncn common toilet articles as soap,
the talcum, the bath mat.
. If mother did not find time to do
it. it was not done at all. To quote
her own word "our bathroom was
(next to our bedrooms) in constant
disorder, and the sad part of the
whole thing was the fact that we did
not imagine for a moment that this
was a shortcoming.
; Maying the role of a wife and
mother is a big tak. And it is un
fortunate that we still have among us
women who believe that they are
going on some sort of a vacation
nen tner give up trie "Business'
jth for the job of homemaker and
child trainer.
' Where one of the partners in mar
riage is a neat person with a seme
of orderliness, and the other lacks
this training, there is more or les
nnhappiness. ' An orderly woma
told me that she wished her husband
had some one big fault instead of
perpetual untidiness. Yet this man
was a fine fellow as men go. Dut his
mother had never taken the time to
tell him that one does not drag one's
clothing off at night and leave it on
i. - a i- . j
me noor 10 dc stepped imo next
morning.
Teach your children neatness.
Remember that you are passing on
to them one of the best bits of train
ing a mother can give.
Problems That Perplex
Answered by
BEATRICE FAIRFAX 1
BWicve the Girl.
" Dear Miss Fairfax: I have heard
much about your advice and. as I
am up a stump now. I want you to
enllphten me on my subject. I am
a high school boy of 18 and go with
a girl six months my senior. Does
thin matter about the age? Some
people think us queer for going to
gether. She is true as one can be
to m. but somehow I believe she is
In love with sftme other boy. She
tells me t know nothing about It and
says she don't love him. How can I
And out for sure whether it is him
Or me she loves? Hoping for a fa
vorable answer, I remain,
J ' LEMON.
i p. S. Her mother oblects to me
Solnsr with hr because I am not of
the aina nationality that she is.
Should I continue to go with her or
BOt? ,- -V- f
Six months is no difference at all
fi) ace. As for finding out if the
girl loves the other fellow, I would
take her word for it that she
doesn't, unless you have reason to
believe she is in the habit of lying.
It is such a pleasure to believe peo
ple. Try it a while. Some people
He, I know, but most of them do not.
A difference in nationality is not a
serious matter. Prejudices against
other nstiortalitles are evidences of
narrow-mindedness. We do find
ourselves less congenial with some
nationalities than with others, but if
we have sincere regard for some
person, the nationality itself should
not count.
J Jealousy and True Love.
Miss Fairfax: I noticed by the
fcaper that you gave some very good
AAvlce. so I thought I would write
for some. Will you please answer
tho following questions?
; Is there any true love where there
is Jealousy? '
i How old should a girl be Before
she is engaged to be married? Is it
proper for a couple to give presents
to one another before they are en
gaged? Thanking you for your ad
Vice In advance. PUZZLED.
; There can be true love, I think,
both with, or without, Jealousy,
jealousy is something which wise
people control. The age at which a
girl may be properly engaged de
pends upon her good sense, the age
t the young man, and other circum
stances. I would place 18 as a mini
mum, and SO a much more desirable
ge lor an ensasemeni. rrnwm
may Be properly exenang-ea unuer
some circumstances even muumi
here Is no engagement. Iavlsn girts
re in poor taste in such a case,
however.
i " The Suspicious Girl.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 18 and
In love with a young man two years
my senior. I have always been a
friend of the family and a good pal
jo hla sister, but in spite of that she
has influenced him not to give me a
gift. What, shall I do, break with
her? ' ANXIOUS.
TVhattNls a "rift"? Perhaps the
young niin needs to save his money
and start building toward your
future. Don't be so critical of his
aister. Believe in her friendship and
accept what you call her "Interfer
ence" as an expression of Interest,
.which it probably is, and you'll have
much more chance ot peace ' and
Jiapplness. .
r i Afraid of Gossip.
. near Miss Fairfax: I have been
isolng about with a girl for a year
,when we broke off because she
treated me so meanly; I have now re
sumed friendship.
' Will you tell me it It la best to go
with her aaain if I care Tor Iter ana
she cares for me, as I know my
friends will talk about me and cria
Xize me. N. .A.
How can anything your friends
sav matter as comnared with your
. feelings for the girl? If she means
anything to you. be man enough to
J snore gossip and criticism, and to
dive your own life honestly and ac.
fording to your ideas ot right and
,wrong.

dance numbers of the Ak-Sar-Ben
pageant, "Coronado in Quivera,"
whfch is to be put on next fall a1 the
Ak-Sar-Bcn field. The dancing is to
be one of the chief features of the

groups ot young people beside those

Maidens and Women of Quivera,
of 'Which Miss Cooper will be in
charge, are beautifully costumed and
will be historically true to the period
represented in the pageant. These
groups will each contain 40 girls and
are closely allied in character with
the dance of the Pueblo men. Miss
Cooper's drilling insures proper pre
sentation of the numbers.

C. K.: Many girls like yourself
when they are asked to attend a
bride at her wedding have only the
vaguest idea of their duties. Some
times they are not even sure if they
will have to provide their own
dresses for the great occasion, or
whether this is part of the bride's
expense.
Unless the parents of the girl wno
is to be married are very well to do
it is usual for the bridesmaids to
buy their own attire. So it is well
to think of the expense entailed be
fore glibly accepting the offer. .
The bride chooses her favorite
sister or a close friend to be her
chief bridesmaid and at least one sis
ter of the bridegroom is asked to
attend to the bride as a rule.
Usually, as soon as ner plans are
made the bride asks the "maids" to
meet at her house to talk about the
dresses. She will probably have a
scheme in mind, and of course it is
nice to fall in with her suggestions
if possible. . If, however, you are
convinced that the styles chosen will
not suit you it would be quite cor
rect to ask her to ' modify them.
Much better to thresh the matter out
at the beginning Instead of accepting
mildly and feeling discontented all
the time.
Hats present a rather difficult
problem. It is rarely that the same
type of hat suits two or three dif
ferent people. If there Is any diver
sity of opinion the bride could Bug-
srest net cans or some Kina 01 neaa-
gear for the occasion only which will
not be very expensive.
The bride chooses the flowers ner
maids shall carry, though it is the
bridegroom's privilege to provide the
bouquets. He also gives each brides
maid a small gift as a souvenir of
the happy occasion.
Curly: I can't publish your letter
about lost relatives without some
knowledge that your facts are au
thentic. If you will have some well
known citizen of your town vouch
for you, I will do what I can for you.
