THE BEE OMAHA,- THURSDAY, JANUARY 25, 1917.
Society Hun McCormack Sinf.
Lukewarm interest seemed the at
titude of society people toward the
McCormack concert when approached
on the subject yesterday morn.g.
You'd have guessed that everys'.ie of
them much preferred to stay in their
good warm homes or pursue some
other pleasures. But if you had seen
them last evening, listening and ap
plauding vigorously rs the great Irish
tenor sang his clear, seemingly sim
ple songs ;ou would have changed
your opinion completely.
They were everywhere, sprinkled
among the music lovers in the bal
cony, seated among the late comers
on the stage and in their usual seats
on the arena and in the boxes. Women
in opera coats and evening dress
emerged from every part of the house
when McCormack bowed his last bow
and finally refused to respond to any
further applause.
One of the most interesting sights
in the audience was the party of six
young girls from Brownell Hall whom
Miss Grace Smith entertained in the
Arthur Crittenden Smith box because
of the absence of her mother in New
York. In one of the front seats was
a little school girl in blue. She was
serious as could be and listened at
tentively through the entire concert.
The other girls in pink and white
frocks were more blushing and in
clined to notice the presence of other
ersons, but the little girl in blue sat
modestly and sedately through it all.
The arrangement of the boxes had
been completely changed so that they
were much more in evidence. The
front boxes were next to the stane
and the others sloped obliquely to
the sides of the Auditorium. This
brought the left exit just back pf the
second box: There, after the per
formance, the Kountzes and the Nich
olsons, the Burgesses and the Nashes,
tne Lieforrest Kicliards and others
were seen moving out to their motor
cars, ror the box-holders the
rangement had some decided disad
vantages.

Mainly About Women
The war his brought about a great
increase in the number of women
workers in Germany, Not only have
women acted as substitutes for men
who have gone to the trenches, but
many have been obliged to seek em
ployment in factories and workshops
so as to earn a livelihood.
Women teachers in the Philadel
phia schools, maintaining that they
are entitled to the same pay as men
teachers, have sent to the Board of
Education a determined request for
equalization of salaries.

in social service work, has been ap
pointed by the minister of labor to

At the present time something over
2,000,000 Canadian women are work
ing in aid of the war or the charities
resultant therefrom. There; are some
30,000 varied societies with members
numbering from half a dozen in tome

By DOROTHY DIX.
The most interesting and-unsolva-ble
riddle in the universe and the one
that every woman tpendt her life
trying to guess is this:
Why does love last to short a time
with man?
Why is a man, who it madly, fran
tically, romantically 'in love when he
gets married so very often indifferent
and neglectful of his wife by the time
lie has been married five years?
Why should a man who is breaking
his heart to get near a woman be
ready in so short a time to break his
neck to get away from her?
Why should so brief a time change
a lover from a seething volcano to a
clam on ice?
Of course, many guesses may be
made at this conundrum. One is that
a man's fancy is proverbially fickle,
and that he soon tires of any posses
sion once it is safely his. Another
guess is that the bird in the bush is
always more desirable than the bird
in the hand.
A third guess is that married life is
a stern reality and not a romantic
dream, and that it is more full of bills
than thrills. A fourth guess is that
men, at least American men, are not
lovers by temperament. Their supply
of sentiment is soon exhausted, and
the real interest in their lives is not
woman, but business.
Perhaps, however, the real answer
to the riddle is that only too often
as soon as a woman marries she
abandons all the arts and artifices by
which she beguiled a man to the altar,
and the man's waning affection is the
direct result of his disappointment in
finding out that he has not gotten
the kind of wife that he thought he
was getting.
Generally speaking, when a woman
starts out to capture husband, she
works along these lines:
(a) She makes herself as attractive
as she can to the masculine eye by
means of waving her hair, wearing
beautiful clothes, and using every
other aid to good looks.
(b) She adopts an ingratiating atti
tude toward the man. She listens with
rapt attention to him when he speaks.
She asks his opinion on every subject.
She goes into convulsions of laughter
at his stories.
(c) She affects similar tastes to his.
She pretends to adore music if he
runs the phonograph; to worship
poetry if he likes to read aloud; she
makes believe she is a fan if he likes
base ball; she fibs about having
cooked the dinner, if he is fond of
his stomach; she will walk miles in
shoes that hurt her if he has a passion
for golf.
(d) She exhibits continually before
him a living picture of perfect amiabil
ity. Nothing on earth could rile her
enough to make her lose her temper
in his presence, and she would bite her
tongue off before she would say the
things she is dying to say.
(e) She never grows weary in the
good work of praising. Day and night
she sings sagas in his honor and tells
him how handsome, how wise, and
witty, and noble, and brave, and
strong he is.
Whereupon the man marries her,
and it would seem that the most ele
mentary common 'sense would teach
that man's wife to go on fishing with
the same bait with which she landed
her catch, instead of which the fair
fisherwoman generally cuts her line,
with the result that husband frequent
ly flops back into the stream and
swims away.
Nor is this any marvel. A man with
a sweet tooth would be furious if he
bought a box of bonbons and found it
to be lemons when he got it home. So
in a similar manner a man who mar
ries a woman for one quality is cha
grined and disappointed when he finds
out that she has substituted an en
tirely different characteristic for it.
It comes to this a man nicks out 1
the particular charm that he wants in

a wife beauty, or amiability, or do
mesticity, or flattery and marries it,
and when the wife fails to deliver the
goods she does so at the risk of los
ing her customer.
Wives affect to believe there is some
great mystery about keeping their
husbands in love with them. It is
simplicity itself. They have only to
go on as they began.
Every woman knows how she at
tracted her husband. She remembers
her star play. To continue to win,
she has only to keep making the same
play.
If her husband fell in love with her
because of her good looks, let her
count the time well spent that she de
voted to dressmakers and complexion
specialists, and hair dressers, and let
her beware of breaking the spell she
has laid upon him by appearing before
him untidy and unkempt.
If she caught her husband by being
a gifted listener, let her lend him her
ears more willingly after marriage
than before it. No man ever wearied
of a wife who hung with bated breath
on his utterances, and never failed to
laugh at his jokes.
If she attracted her husband by her
similarity of taste, let her eat her
olives to the end of the meal without
making faces.
If she charmed him by her amiabil
ity, let her keep peace no matter what
the provocation.
If she ruled him into matrimony by
flattery, let her keep the incense
burner ever at wtrk, and the perfume
of her praise ever in his nostrils.
Thus, by being changeless herself,
shall she solve the problem of why
men change after marriage. For what
we call the fickleness of man is his
faithfulness to an ideal. When he goes
a-roaming he is often only still hunt
ing for the same bait with which his
wife caught him, and which she was
silly enough to throw away when she
tnougnt she hag him hooked.
