A glimpse of the crude early jazz was given in the opening number, La Rocea’s “Dixieland,” presented by a small group from among the 25 mu- sicians, aided with such equipment as small skillets and a large gal- vanized pail, given before the gold curtain with caricature silhouettes of the entire orchestra painted upon ir.

EAR MISS DIX: I have a woman friend of whom I am very fond, but she is getting on my nerves, because she tags me and the young man to whom T am engaged continually. She drops In and spends the evening with us, and wherever we go we have to take her along with us. Naturally we do not desire her company continually. I do not like to speak to her about it. as she was the means of my getting acquainted with the young man, but when people are engaged two's company and three is a crowd, no matter how much you like the third party. What can I do? E. A. Answer: She will never forgive you for telling her that you could do with a little less of her society, but that is the only way you can ever get rid of your buttinsky friend. You will have to speak plainly, for there is no use in wasting hints on any one who is as thick-skinned as a rhinoceros, and who has so little sensitiveness that she cannot feel the difference in atmosphere between being warmly welcomed and barely tolerated. Certainly, one of the greatest problems in the world is how to deal with the too-friendly friend; the friend who wishes herself on you In season and out of season, and who seems to think that because you like her you can never get an overdose of her society She forgets that you have other dutles, other interests in life, and that no matter how much you care for her there are times when her presence is a bore, and when it is highly inconvenicnt to have her about. Nobody wants any outsider to be continually underfoot. Nobody wants an outslder popping in at the back door, seeing and knowing everything that is going on in a household. No one wants an outsider who feels privileged to know and advise you about all of your private affairs. Yet there are plenty of women who construe friendship just that way. Because you are fond of them, and they are fond of you, they feel that v have a right to dictate to you about whom you shall employ for your doctor; how vou shall rear your children, and to pick out your hats and your furniture for you. They are hurt if you go to parties that they are not 4#nvited to, and insulted if you don’t have them to every entertainment you &i There is never an hour of the day or night when you can feel that you are secure from having them.come to see you. The reasons why so few friendships last is because women wear them out by their exactions. Too much friend is worse than no friend at all, and S0 the only thing to do with a monopolistic friend is to get rid of the pest as soon as you can. DOROTHY DIX. th When I was 18 T was very much in love with a girl She insisted upon our getting married then, but I did not wish to tie myself up in matrimony at such an early aj Shortly afterward the girl got married, and is now the mother of two young children Lately we have met again, and she tells me that she is very unhappy and doesn’t care for her husband, and that she still loves me, and asks m to take her out Now, this is the point. Should T or should T not go out with her? 21 years of age now, and I figure that I am old enough to have a common sense. GEORGE EAR MISS DI of 17 I am little L. Answer You might be as old as Methuselah, eorge, but you still wouldn't be old enough to have any common sense if you mixed yourself up in an affair with a married woman. The man who does that is always headed for trouble, no matter what his age. Consider the subject calmly, George, and see where you get off. The woman tells you that she has always loved vou. Do you think she loved you very much when she solaced herself as soon as you left by marrying another man? No woman who really loved would have done that. She would have waited for you for 10 years. Being in love with a married woman is bound to involve you in a scandal or a divorce case, both pretty messy things and not calculated to further a young man’s fortune or enhance his reputation in the community. Of course, men who have illicit love affairs don’t have to pay the piper quite as high a price as women do, but they don't get off scot-free. They have their little bill to settle also, and very often it bankrupts them in heart and purse. Then what do_vou think is to be the end of vour love affalr with a rried woman? Do you expect to just go on loving her, hopelessly and atmlessly, having clandestine meetings with her, always living in fear of her husband finding it out? That's a sordid Sort of a romance that you won't find much pleasure in, belleve me. It isn't the fun that having a nice girl sweetheart would be. And take it from me, George, no other woman in the world is so fiendishly jealous and keeps a man in such abject slavery to her jealousy as does the married woman who has to meet her lover on the sly and who has fits every time she héars of his going out with a girl. And if the husband divorces her, don't you think that marrying a woman with two children is rather a large order for a boy of 21?7 Starting out with a ready-made family i1s a heavy burden for any youth to assume in these times, and if you have the common sense you pride yourself on having you won't do it. Sympathize with your friend at a safe distance is my advice, and let her work out her own matrimonial problem. DOROTHY DIX. ]DEAR DOROTHY DIX ould not a son do as much for his mother as he does for his mother-in-law, especially as his own mother is poor and in bad health, ‘while his mother-in-law is well off and has good health? M. C. F. An Of course, a son's duty Is far greater to his own mother than it is to his wife's mother, and if the man had the say-so in such matters he would rather take care of his mother than his mother-{-law. But always the man’'s wife decides these matters. A mother nearly always goes to live with her daughter instead of her son, and thus we have the curious mix-up that many a man is supporting his wife's mother, and some other man is supporting his mother. This may even matters up, by and large, but it is small comfort to the woman who has no daughters. = Certainly in such cases the woman's son should look after his own mother first, DOROTHY DIX.
