P SEGRETARY I ALSOPRIZE WINNER Garence H. Baroes Guesses on “What Do Women Want?” Clasence M. Barnes general secre- tary of the Y. M. C. A, has been notified that he has won second prize in a mational $00 word literary con. test conducted by Association Men, the ¥. 3. C. A. national magazine. Mr Barnes’ article was written on the subject, “What Do Women Wanf and was semi-humorous, as follows: “What do women want? That is 2 poser. What woman is gifted with an economy of words that would enable her to encompass a pat an- swer in half & thousand words? And a8 for & man, what can he hope to do in that space even if he has & §uess or twe on the subject? CLARENCE W. BARNES “The question is the superlative eross.word puzzie.

He 18 sbout as ignorant regarding the problem as he was the day he started on his honeymoos. Close association with a wo for two score years leaves him still groping in the dark. “He compares his own expericnce with that of his friends. He finds they are no more capable than he to spesk with wisdom about the aims ond desires of the feminine heart. It the aversge length of marricd lige i insufficient time to find out what one woman wants, who has the audacity to be dogmatic about what & warld full of women want? “A man reflects that his own con- sort wanted love, & home, children, and & car. When she got these, she celled for more love, a better house and s bigger car. Her wants eup- plisd, her needs increased. Many of them were not clear-cut wants, but ‘vague, shadowy desires. “Well, it is the same way with the man. He finds that the acquisition of pomsessions he thought he wanted does not leave him satisfied. ‘The processes of business, social and religious life are unsatisfactory. In that respect husband and wife share a ecommon experience. The differ- ence in sex does not cxclude either | from dissatistaction at what life has brought nor are they free from those wants beyond words. “After all perhaps women want | abost the seme things men do.

Those things writers al- ways are trying to capture with words. “Blologically women znd men gre littte different. Perhaps in the spiritual sense there is still less dif- forence between tho sexes. “MayBap a desire for social equal- ity. economic independence, creative liberty, freedom from artificial re-| strictions and recognition of individ- usl achievement bulk large in fem- inine consciousness, just as they do 18 the masculine mind. “Putting it another way, perhaps women are tired of a man-ruled world and desire to share life on 50- 50 basis. Perhaps as individuals they desire to make their own choices and not be chosen for be- cause they gre women. “f will pin my guess on that ' 90 People Already Hurt by Celebration 8t.
