Dorothy Dix Says - - - Finish College Courses Before Rushing Off to the Altar Dear Dorothy Dix—I am & college boy of 17 and am the only freshman who is eligible for three national honorary fraternities in his fresh- man year, so you see I figure quite largely in college life. I am work- ing my way through college and have a small job right now washing dishes, which pays me from $350 to $5 a week. A year and a ‘half ago while I was in high school I met a very attractive girl and we fell in love with each other, but she has gone away to go into training as a nurse, and the trouble with me is that I cannot stand being parted from her. I love her so madly that I can think of nothing else but her and cannot put my mind upon my studies. One of my professors here at college has advised me to marry her at once, as he tells me that it would be a tonic to me and that I need to snap out of this lethargy I am in. I worry so much about her I am unable to do my, work properly. My question is: Shall ¥ marry her now, or shall I wait? Shall I con- tinue college and she continue her training, or shall we both quit ané find good jobs, if possible? A MATURE YOUNG MAN. Answer—You mature! What a joké! Why, you have the worst case of calf love I ever encountered. There isn't a thing about you that is adult, not even your romance. For grown-up men have some con- trol over -their emotions and don't sit around and moon over a girl until they go gqofy, as you seem to have done. 1t is only & boy who is still a child that is emotionally unstable who thinks he will die if he has to .be parted from Sweetums, and who wants to rush into marriage without considering the cost, or how he is going to take care of the girl he thinks he can’t live wjthout. Apparantly you have never con- sidered anything further than the wedding day. You haven't asked yourself what you are going to do for money, for certainly a $350 or even a $5 dish-washing job wouldn't support two people. ‘What would you give the girl to eat when she got hungry? How would you buy her new clothes when those she had wore out? What sort of roof could you put over her head? - If your professor advised you at 17 to marry without a dollar in your pocket, he must have thought you such a dope that you would never amount to anything, anyway, and it didn’t matter what you did. Certainly he must know, if he knows boys at all, that a lad of 17 doesn’t know his own mind nor have the remotest conception of what sort of wife he will want when he flows him takes the heart and spirit out of him and lands him in the scrap heap instead of on top of the ladder. A poor boy, weighted down with responsibilities he is unfit to bear, with a wife and children dependent upon him, with sickness and doctors’ bills and food bills and clothing bills crushing him down, never has a chance in the world. My advice to you is to quit think- ing about this girl and put your mind on your studies instead of matrimony. For her sake and your own try to make g man of yourself whom she will be proud to marry when you have something worth taking to offer her. DOROTHY DIX.
