O matter what sis punishments, | the child with a wanderlust | cannot resist the temptation of the open road, other children call of new pastures. There are some things a mother may do to curt his urge to run away. She may lure playmates into his own yard. Older ones are extremely helpful, not because they watch the child, but be- cause they say reprovingly, “Oh. you mustn’t run into the street, baby,” and | because they are children the child is respectful. | Children of the same age who have learned this lesson can be counted upon to act as deterrents. Invite them to play, for playmates are almost impera- tive 'if the child is to be satisfied at home. Gates and fences and playpens help, but the spitit to stay put must be fostered. | Promises, threats and punishments will not work with the runaway child. | Putting the burden for staying at home | on the child is too dangerous. It isn't| that he doesn't know. but he has a short memory. The temptations are | terrific, likewise the urge to see and do things by himself. The problem of the runaway child can be solved only if the mother is able to decipher the cause of his discontent- ment at home. \ODE JUNE 27, WOMEN’S FEATURES. D. C, TUESDAY, UNCLE RAY'S CORNER Chicago's Big Fair. | TI—The Enchanted Island EAR MISS DIX—T am 28 years old and in love with a widower of 42. He has three children—a daughter, 14; son, 12, and a little boy, 4. This man frankly tells me that while he is very fond of me he could never give me the same deep and tender love he did his wife; also that I would come second to his children in his life; that he would marry primacily to give them ideal home surround- ings. He feels it would be unfair to ask me to accept the role of almost platonic wife when I am young ¢nough to love deeply and to expect to be all-in-all to my husband. He says he has seen too many lives wrecked by second marriages where all memory of the first wife and mother was obliterated; her name never spoken; her pictures hidden away from her children, and that this attitude of the second wife resulted in hidden re- sentments which are not sane and rational. So he wants the memory of his children’s mother to be happily and lovingly fostered Now I love this man. He is fine and upright and could give me & good Lome, security and affection. Is it too much of a risk to marry him? UNDECIDED. Answer: Your decision should depend upon your knowledge of your- self and how much common sense you have and how little jealousy. IVE a set asi space chant only a part is located. JF_you are of a jealous temperament do not marry the man, for a wife can get even more green-eyed over a poor dead lady in the cemetery than she can over a flapper in her husband's office. And that's a-plenty, believe me. Nor can one blame her when one contemplates the idiocy of men who are forever throwing their first wife in their second wife's tecth, 50 to speak, and presenting invidious comparisons between them. Telling what a marvelous cook Mary was and how she could run a house on air and never thought of buying but one dress a year, and never belonged to clubs or wasted her time on bridge and so on and on. Blessings brighten as they fade, particularly in wives, and many a man conjures up a posthumous passion for his wife after she is gone that he never felt when she was with him in life. If every widower had been really as romaptically devoted to his wife as he thinks he was, consoling one wouldn't be the easlest job a woman ever tackles. SO consider that aspect of the problem, but also bear this in mind, that in reality your husband's first wife is the least dangerous rival you can possibly have, and that a cold, pale, shadowy ghost can easily be routed by a live, warm woman. Your husband may still think he is faith- ful to his wraith, but he will forget her in the love and cheer and happi- ness that you will bring into his life. Just bring your common sense to bear on the proposition—that it doesn’t really matter who was first in a man’s life, the important thing T is to be one who possesses him at the present moment. And remember that we are only afraid of our skeleton closet when we keep the door shut. When we fling it wide open We see that there is nothing in it but a few harmless old bones. So don't make your husband's first wife a taboo subject. Talk about her. Sing her praises. Tell the children what | a grand mother they had and you take all the kick out of secret heroine | worship. S for the children, they will soon be gone. Ten years at most and they will have flown the home nest. In the meantime, considering their father’s attitude, do mot assume the role of mother to them, but of a big sister. Leave all of the controlling and disciplining of them to their father and devote yourself to winning their friendship and making them feel that you understand and sympathize with them and are doing vour best to make life pleasanter for them. Use tact in handling the young- sters. Every man who marries a second time is so grateful to his wife for not quarreling with his children that he adores her. A widower is a mighty good bet as a husband, even if he does think | theater and his heart is permanently cracked. You can start the good work of mend- | ing it, and baby hands will finish it DOROTHY DIX. | (Copyright, EVERYDAY PSYCHOLOGY 1 A 1SLAND. feet in hel ‘greeter” to Here and which stories. | wheel ‘and scemed that obtaining | fairly high | cars” behind car. | car as well 1933.)

This point has by no means been thoroughly established by experimental methods.

Back of all this you must keep in mind that as you extend the range of your social stimulation, you narrow the range of vour individual attention. No one can effectively attend to more than | one thing at a time. It is absolutely impossible to indulge in alcohol and thereby expect to do efficient work of any kind. The laws of mental life are as rigorous as any of the laws of nature. No one can ignore them with- out paying the penalty. | The most you can say about the beneficent effects of alcohol is that it offers a temporary relief from the | pangs of introversion and to some ex- | tent from the foolishness of selfishness. In other words, it serves as some sort of escape from reality. Take it all in all, the escape is more costly than the confinement. Put it down that those who argue for alcohol are merely hunting up reasons for weaknesses which they know they cannot justify on the basis of living facts. (Copyright, 19:3.)
