TUESDAY AUGUST 14, 1928. *fi—'—_———-— FEATURES! DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX | \ i | Younger Generation Puts in a Word—Masculine Attributes—Man Who Would Marry Girl Nineteen Years His Junior. [DEAR MISS DIX: Why all this talk about the younger generation going to the dogs with fast living? How about us young folks who are trying to lead a decent life?> How do people think we feel being included in that sweeping state- | ment “the younger generation”> Don't they know that it makes us wonder at the | futility of trying to be good when some one is always lambasting us? 1 think that deep down in ‘the heart of every fast-living person is a hurt caused by & lot of criticizing, and deep down in the hearts of & lot of older folks is a jealousy that the younger people are progressing further than they were able to. 1t they would only give us a glad hand, they would find the younger generation more co-operative with their ideas. A lot of young folks are trving to get closer to their parents, but the parents won't listen to them for fear they will learn something and have to admit it. A DAILY READER. ! Answer—It is the murders and not the church sociables that get the front | page of the newspapers. As long as we go along living quiet. orderly, humdrum | lives. nobody even hears of us, but let us take to bootlegging or assassinate our children, and we get the spotlights turned on us. | H That is the reason why you hear about the exploits of the booze-drinking. necking, petting members of the younger generation, who throw wild parties and get arrested in roadhouse raids, while nothing is said about the younger genera- | tion who are leading clean. upright lives and doing their duty in that station of | | life to which it has pleased Heaven to call them, and who are as fine a set of | young people as have ever lived upon the earth. | “ So far as the talk about the younger generation’s going to the dogs is cnn-! | cerned, it is what every generation has said about the generation that succeeds | | it. It is exactly what vour grandfather's generation said about your father's generation and what you will say about your children’s generaton. | Not long ago I was looking over an old Godeys Lady’s Book that was pub-| lished in 1851. It was full of pictures of hoop-skirted ladles with sweeping skirts | 20 yards around the bottom and chignons on their heads, and of gentlemen in peg-bottom trousers and brass-button coats. Most of the stories were goody- goody, milk and water, Victorian effusions, but there was one up-to-date article | that might have been written yesterday. | | It was about the younger generation and 1t was a lament over its decadence. | It told all about how fast and pleasure-loving it was: how lacking in mofiesty in the way it dressed and the way it disported itself. It told how frivolous the girls were and dow {ll-fitted to be mothers: how purposeless the boys were, and how | lacking in ambition, and how the young folks generally had departed from the | high ideals of their forefathers. And it prophesied that the country was going to ing ways to protect him from some of | the dogs, and that nothing good could be expected of this week-kneed generation the dire calamities she is so sure Mlll befall him. She is deathly afraid that some day Bobby will get hold of her shining scissors, and her heart a little an eye with bright quails at the idea boy once who put out She knew | some sharp scissors. and make him So to protect Bobb; so afraid of the scis it with peroxide and ammonia or eise g0 near them, she makes a pnmlh of ow | dangerous they are to small boys and | telling him all about the scissors how they bite. Bobby gazes, full of awe, “Why?" her face. And mother clicks the scis- sors viciously and snaps them and tries to impress Bobby with the fact that they are pretty bad old seissors. A week later Bobby goes to the bar- ber shop. This has always been a treat The man has all sorts of funny toy for children to play with, and Bobby likes being set up in the high chair and watching his hair fall around his face in a cloud as the man snips and snips. But not today. As he hears the pre- monitory click and sees the awful scis- | sors approaching him he lets out a blood-curdling yell. “Mamma, mamma, he shrieks, “I don't want to, I don't want to!" “Darling, you have to have your hair cut; you know how the man always does it, and then mamma gets you a little bag of candy afterward and Bobby looke so nice." It's all no use. Bobby dances up and down. He refuses to stay quiet, he shrieks and sobs. Every one takes a hand at trying to comfort him, and curious heads are turned :n mother’s direction until she is frantic with em- barrassment. Mothers whose children are quietly being shorn look at her as if she had brought i a monster. Fi- nally she takes Bobby out of the chair, sobbing and wet with perspiration, the perspiration of sheer terror. “Want to g0 _home, want to go home.” “I'll have to try it another d: “1 can't imagine what is matter with him. You know he never acted this way before." When Bobby has quieted down some, and is home, mother tries to find out the cause of his terror. “What were you afraid of, Bobby— tell mother?™ “Bobby didn't want scissors to bite,” said Bobby. “Bad old scissors!” And there are mothers who never go to the trouble to find out the why of childish fears like the above. These mothers scoff if you suggest such tan- trums were inspired by their own meth- ods of discipline. says the has Raisin Ice Cream.

My friend savs that All men are alike. None can be trusted, no matter | whether they are married men or single. I do not agree with her. What do vou | think? MABEL. | Answer—Your friend’s assertion is absurd. Men are no more altke in char- | acter than all women are. Some are good, others are bad. Some are trust- | worthy. others are not to be depended upon. It is a matter of the individual. Possibly your friend has been unfortunate in the men she has met, but, after all, her experience is limited, and it is as unfair to condemn the whole sex because one or two have failed her as it would be to say there are no good apples because she has happened to strike a rotten one. There are men who kiss and ride away, but there are also men who drag out the long lengths of an engagemnet vear after year and go back to the vil- lage and marry the first sweetheart. There are faithless husbands who desert their old wives for younger and fairer faces, but they are few compared to the | number of husbands who never look at another girl after they are married, and ‘whn still think their wives more beautiful than any flapper after they have ’been married 40 years. | e | ‘Their are married men who take advantage of their positions as employers to make love and show familiarities to the girls who are dependent upon tnem for their living, but where there is one of these men, there are a hundred men | who treat their girl employes with as much kindness and respect as they would show their own daughters. | Oh, no, it is foolish to say that no man can be trusted or that all men are | to be measured by the same yardstick. Bad men there are, of course, but the average man, God bless him. is a mighty safe proposition to tie to. { DOROTHY DIX. | EAR MISS DIX: I am 40 years old and I am in love with a girl of 21.

I have a good business and un\ | take good care of her, and although she is much younger than I, we are most congenial. Do you think I ought to permit her to break her engagement to this }nther man in order to marry me? INRY. | Answer—Certainly, because if she marries the man she does not love, she will find no hl?plheu in it.

There is first the common tendency o | select some one incident as the cause or occasion for a breakdown. That !s the last straw that breaks the camel's back. You forget about all the other load piling upon weary limbs, and you forget that it probably wasn't a very sturdy specimen of a camel to begin with Here we have the last straw in the form of a questionable joke, a very light straw indeed. More commonly it is some loss or accident or disappoint- ment or grief, but always a shock of Then the particular inci- dent that gave the last push that sent the victim over the precipice is brooded over and magnified. and you have what the patient calls the “real start of my trouble " 1 It is very far from the real start, | which usuaily goes way back to child- | hood. Here it is: “I am beginning to realize that I can trace back my con- | dition since I was a child of 8 years. | | was weak.” and so on. This is the | second point. Candidates for mental breakdown are recruited largely from | nervous children. Hence the great im- portance now placed on recognizing the signs of nervous susceptibility early and | giving such children special care. | Prevention is the largest factor in ail treatment. We shall never know as| we do in the case of smallpox how much any form of treatment reduced the prevalence of the disease: but we have strong reasong to believe that we can save meny a child from mental trouble 10, 20, 30 years later by dealing with patience and understanding with nervous symptoms in children. You | can't do at what should have been done at 7. The third common factor of these common cases is the consequent habit of trying one kind of cure after an- | other. and each with disappointment: nothing does any good. That's the ! same mistake over again. Just as the thought that that joke was responsible for the breakdown fixed that idea, so the first failure in treatment fixed the that all treatment would fail. Hence the importance of doing the right thing first. “My imagination is | Famous | Beauties and Society Leaders the | World over | secure that bewitching, attractive touch to their complexion thru Made {n White - Flesh - Rachel In use over 85 years Send 1%, for Trial Size Ford.

But they can be driven away, though after four years of fix- ation they sit pretty tight. You can't undo the work of years Yet a man who reaches the age of 4% and marries at the age of 36, has twn children and makes a living is normal enough to be brought back to the nor- mal life when he falls out of the race for a time. Doubtless he and his wife, like many other couples, quarreled now and then: there was a harsh word and a break, and often the violent dispute was about a very small matter, again a last straw. The break came because one or the other was in an irritable mood. He or she was below par in stability and any le jolt threw the nervous system off the track. That same offensive joke | that is held responsible for the break- dowin might on another occasion have | been passed by with just a word of reproof. Since these “last-straw” cases nceur typically in the nervously disposed, since they get worse by unwise treat- ment, and every siep of failure digs them deeper down into mental unfit- ness, the task of treatment in a mature man is far from simple. It's a ques- tion of re-education, of correcting the mistakes of the past from childhood on yet more than all else building a right, hopeful attitude toward the present difficu'ty. You can't change a man's disposi- tion, certainly not at 47, but you can redispose him enough to bring him back to the same state of capacity that he enjoyed for years. That art is long and personal; it can't be indicated in a letter or a page. It begins by root- ing out that st-straw” idea and starting with a careful plan of re-edu- cation. Weed the garden first; plant |new seed: remember that the soil isn't lany too good; expect modest results; but favorable ones. A normal crop iz possible. but you must find the right gardener.
