RADIO CURFEW LAW APARTMENT {SSUE Summer Coming On and Open Win- dows Will Keep Many Awake. BITTER WAR IS PROMISED ‘Will Court Declare Loud Speakers @ Nuisance? By Conwolidated Press. NEW YORK, April 19.—A new bat- te for freedom of the ether hasburst on the radio world. But this time it is a battle of the apartment house courts, rather than the courts of law. At least it has started out that way. though there is cvery prospect that it will end up in the law courts. The issue in this new war, which the landlords of apartment houses face with fear and trembling, is whether or not the ether after, say, 11 o'clock at night shall be made free for dormancy. In other words, shall or shall not the traditional 11 o'clock “Doise curfew” be maintained? 11 0'Clock Waking Time. Radio, as everybody who owns a receiving set, or lives near one, knows, is just getting steamed up at 11 o'clock.” From then on until about 3 in the morning the wild ether waves are made to shimmy to the strains of jazz, sent forth from a dozen or more late sending stations here and throughout the country Radlo “bugs’ certalnly haven't an idea of passing up these concerts so that their more sedate neighbors may sleep. And the sedate neighbors have just as little idea of lying awake until 3 am. listening to re-broadcasts via the loud speaker route, if they can help it Fdward P.

At midnight the Bohemians (from station WHN. “invisible Bohemia") attacked with a volley by Jazza- rimbo's Brass Band. The Dormancists counter attacked with a salvo of caterwauls, hoots and hisses. Led by a powerful baritone, they had almost repelled the attack when a Bohemian Molly Pitcher hurl- ed her voice into the breach. “I know that voice,” she screamed. “You are the man that kept me Awake half of last night quarreling with vour wife.

Always find the cause of fright Or it will baunt you day and night. "Mother Bear. What happened after Littlest Bear disappeared in the Green Forest after her mother, of course Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown’s Boy couldn't sce. What did happen was this: Littlest Bear, still bawling, raced after Moth- er Bear as fast as she could go. That pail upside down on her head, held in place by the handle around her neck, rattled and banged against the bushes and trees. The noise not only added to Littlost Bear's fright, but it added to the fright of her mother, who was suro that some dreadful creature was chasing her. At last Littlest Bear ran under a low-growing, stout branch. It caught under the edge of the pail and it brought Littiest Bear up with a jerk that pulled her off her feet. For just & second she felt as if she were be- ing choked to death. That was be- cause that handle was pulled so tightly across her throat. Then, as &he scrambled to her feet, she found herself free. She didn't know it at first. You see, she was too frighten- ed to notice it But after she had run a little way she no longer felt that dreadful thing around her neck. ed and put her paw up. uldn't feel that dreadful thing that had held her A prisoner. She didn't know what had become of it. and she didn't care. She once more hurried to trv to eateh up with her mother. She still whim- pered, for she was still frightened By ‘this time Mother Bear was be- ginning to get over her fr some- what. She was still suspiciou her curiosity was beginming (o over tome her fear. She stopped and lis- tened. She heard Littlest Bear whim- pering and crying, but theres 8 no longer the sound of that pail againet the trees and bus So.

Mother Bear, who was Dorothy Dix’s Letter Box Can the Quiet, Serene Second Love Be as Real and Lasting as the First>—What Shall a Mother Do With Her Gay Young Flapper Daughter? EAR DOROTHY DIX: Seven years ago I met and fell in love with a splendid man. who returned my love. Misunderstandings arose, and thinking that I did not love him, he married another woman. Within the last year I have become engaged to a fine, steady man, who has loved me unfalteringly for almost ten years. We have innumerable tastes in common and are {deally suited to each other, and the only thing that troubles me is the fact that my love for him is g0 quiet, 80 placid, and has not the thrills that the first love had. Yet I do love him. 1 have never told him about my former love affair. Should I? FIFTY-FIFTY. Answer: There is only one springtime in the year, vet the other seasons are not less enjovable. There is only one first love, with its romance and thrills and circling wings of glory, but first love perishes as easily as do all other airy, fairy, gossamer things. It is the serious, sober later Joves that are built on realities instead of dreams that last No mature woman can any more go back and recapturs her girlish emotions than she can regain her girlish figure. Something intangible has gone that can never he replaced. She does not look at men with the same eyes. She has not the same illusions about them. She does not expect the same things of them. _ The debutante can see a Prince Charming in any good-looking youth. She can believe that any glib talker never loved before, that she alone can £ave his soul, and that he will die of a broken heart unless she marries him. The very young girl will marry, really believing that she will be perfectly happy and never have another care or anxicty and that her husband wiil =pend the balance of his life holding her hand and telling her how much he loves her and how wonderful she is. The mature woman. who has seen much of life and men, is disillusione She knows men for what they are, a mixture of tenderness and cruel of goodness and badness: of faith and unfaith. When she loves she loves wisely, and her love, founded on respect and congeniality and a thousand things that do not enter into the young girl's scheme of things endures. The only love that can really be trusted to the last is this quiet, discerning second love. Of course, you should not tell this man you are going to marry about your former love affair. It is dishonorable to the first man. What happened then was something sacred between you and him, and a stranger has no right to know of it, nor would it add to the happiness of the second man to be told of a dead and past episode that mizht rankle in his mind and keep him always wondering if vou cared for him as you did for your first sweetheart. DOROTHY DIX. . EAR MISS DIX: My daughter is just seventeen—at the foolish age. She is a typical flapper, smokes, drinks, paints, powders and all the rest of it. T have talked and talked to her, but it is of no use. I am an old- fashioned mother. My daughter's chum is just sixteen, but her mother is “up-to-date.” They have parties at her house. on an average of three nights a week, where they can smoke, drink and dance. I have talked to the mother of my daughter's chum and asked her how she can tolerate such actions beneath her own roof. She says she does not “take it seriously. Girls will be girls; if they can't smoke at home they will do it on the sly, and she had much rather her daughter would smoke at home. Do you think it right to sanction wrongdoing just because it is unavoidable? Do you think I shounld say, “Mary, I know you will smok drink, etc., 6o have vour friends here. and I will furnish the refreshments, and thereby be the up-to-date mother? I am willing to do anything or try anything to save my girl from these “good times” that are sure to lead her to her downfall, but my conscience says “no.” My husband is dead and my only other child married. T have nobody to turn to. Please help me if you can. HARASSED MOTHER. Answer: T would gladly give my life, Harassed Mother, for the wisdom to tell you what to do with your silly little girl, who, as the Bible dramatically puts it, “has set her feet on hell” Because your problem is the biggest problem in the world today: How to save our girls from drink and the immorality that goes with it and the headstrong folly that is bound to be their destruction. Nobody knows the answer to this riddle of the modern age, for the voung have broken the bonds that hold them and they will not listen to the warning of the elders. Of course, many of the things that the flappers do that are shocking to an older generation are really harmless. We can sigh over their lack of artistic sense when they smear their pretty little child faces with cosmetics until they look like clowns. We can wish that they wore a few more clothes and that they tried to imitate ladies instead of hoodlums. However, l!losa are minor faults. So is,smoking, but when it comes to drinking and wild parties they are not only standing on the very edge of the pit them- gelves—they are threatening to drag civilization over iuto the abyss with And the pity of it is tha i o tha t no ono knows how to hold them back; how But one thing is sure. The mothers who sanction the drinking and carousing in their own homes aid and abet it. They encourage it. They are responsible not only for their own children's downfall, but they drag other women's children with them. They are a curse to society. So I urge you, Harassed Mother, to stick to your guns. Fight for your ideals. Keep your own home clean. It your daughter is bound to do the things she should not do, let them be done out of your house. In this way you will exgercise a restraining influence over her. Somewhere in that bobbed head of hers will be a respect for you that she would not have if you had yielded to her, and some time she will turn with reverence and longing to the home that you have kept pure and sweet as & home and not turned into a roadhouse. DOROTHY DIX. EAR MISS DIX: Is it proper for a wife to be continuaily telling her husband that she loves him? BILL. Answer: Depends on how he takes it. _If he enjoys®it—and most husbands do—she can't repeat it too often. Tf it bores him to be made love to, she is discreet to act coldly -toward him, and let him do the love-making. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1924.) BOOST FOREST CARE. Masons Take Over Hospital.
