b 15 THE BEE: OMAHA, SUNDAY. MARCH 13, 1921. V Problems That Perplex Answered by BEATRICE FAIRFAX Young Meu Ask Questions. In ono day's mall I've culled these Questions put to me by various IJioughtful young men who appear to, ba studying the girl of today through earnest as well as critical eyes. "Poos the girl of .today deserve the devoted and unswerving love of a man? Docs slio give him In devo tion and loyalty and stick-to-ltlve-riess what her grandmother gave when she took a man 'for better, for worse'?" asks J. J. Does tho girl of today do tho right thing w hen she follows all the fads In dressing and spends more than she cnn afford to be In the latest stylo?" writes The Club. "Do you believe that women to day cara for the simple home joys? Certainly home and love don't play much part In the life of women in the hlg cities. Aren't the women supposed to be the nobler sex de teriorating hopelessly?" writes li. T. S. 1 smile over these letters a bit sad ly. For the tine lads who wrote them are wnitlng for mo to get out ' a cat-o'-nlne tails and flourish it a bit about the over-exposed silk stockings and white chests of my sex. And 1 Ijavo to confess Just here and now that sometimes I feel as ex asperated (that's precisely the emo tion and sensation!) at my sex as they do. But, then, I do a little remember ing. Muft things in this world of ours tnovo along with due regard for the law of supply and demand. Apply the principle where we will in life it holds and its worJklngs seem to regulate human conduct and tho sowing of crops: Well, the law of supply and de mand has a lot to do with tho way girls act today. And it all works back to the men folks, so its them I'll have to speak harshly to, after all. Tou see, boys, it's like this: Tou w$nt to be amused. AVhen time comes to settle down,, you're planning to many a sweet, home-making girl one something like mother. But In the meantime yo.u want a good time. So you rush around in high-powered cars if you have thteni, frequent cabarets if you have the price and stroll in the park if you haven't. And who goes with you? The pretty little fluff who dances well, laughs and plays your way, and is a "nifty dresser." She's only jour playmate. But she shares your en joyments, and comes in for more than her share of presents and love making I And the nice girj sits at home. The sweet home-loving girl is human and doesn't enjoy being neglected until such time as you are ready to "settle down." Marriage ought not to be si "settling down," but as so many men don't, marry until they're tired and begin to feel weary of all the "bright lights," marriage is what it should not be the end of care-free gayety. The "nice" girl has a brain and plenty of unfilled evenings during which to exercise it. She sees all the little, fluffy, empty heads having the invitations to theaters and dances for which she yearns. She notices the obvious externals through which they capture the roving and easily pleased masculine eye. And she thinks som1 more. She decides men don't want loyalty and devotion and homes. Then next pay day, instead of bringing home 18 of her 25 to mother, she brings two. And for herself a pink georgette blouse and a pair of sleasy silk stockings with cheap gray pumps' to match. Also a box of sticky white powder and a little rouge. "If this Is what the boys want." says Miss Nice Girl to herself, "I Have I answered you, young men? might as well give it to them." Benson Society Benson Correspondenf Call Walnut 5370- A Fault Due to Ignorance. i Dear Miss Fairfax: A few even" ings ago, the young man I expect to marry, and whom J love dearly, and myself, were on our way to the theater. As I had a little errand to attend to, he waited outside the shop for me. When I came out, he let me walk down the street and wait 15 minutes as he was talking to a relative and paid no attention to me. Now, I know my friend and this lady have much business to talk over, and very little opportunity. He thinks, in view of this, he did per fectly right, while I am heart-broken, and I feel I cannot forgive him without a.Jiumble apology. If I am wrong, I wish to know it. i ROSEMARY. The young man acted very crudely. Ho should have greeted you when you came out of the shop, either taking you aside to ask you to go inside and wait until he had finished his' business discussion, or else in cluding you in the talk. He should have known better than to humiliate you, but his fault was undoubtedly one of ignorance and was not prompted by any desire to slight-or hurt you. 5 . A Wise Woman. Dear Miss Fairfax: What is your idea of a wise woman? A wise woman is one who knows exactly what a man means when she knows he is saying a lot he doesn't mean. - - FREE LECTURES ON ' Health, Happiness and Success By BIRCH A.

The strength of the arch depends on the strength of the supporting muscles and ligaments which hold these bones in their normal positions. Muscles should be strengthened by exercise, not propped up by rigid metal appliances. Most shoes bind the foot, impede the circula tion, sap the strength of the muscles. Cantilever Shoes have a flexible shank which not only af fords support, but permits the foot muscles to work in walking. That is what really strengthens the muscles and the arch, prevents and corrects flat foot. Cantilever Shoes have both .mili tary and Cuban heels, slightly high er on the inside than on, the out side. That feature makes it easy for you to assume a comfortable standing position, to walk grace fully and without fatigue. Finally, Cantilever Shoes are good looking. Their lines are graceful. The leather is softest kid, skin, in the shades that are best liked. Try on a pair at our shop and learn what real comfort can be found in new shoes. - Sizes, 2 to 11; Widths', A AAA to EE.
