We Usually Find What We Look For | Dear Miss Grey: No doubt to every reader of your column, there | comes the occasional desire to ex: | press an opinion on subjects being discussed by other readers. The im-/ pulse has come to me frequently, but usually, before I could find time, the subject had been more or less) thoroughly settled, and laid away. The contribution to which I par-| ticularly take exception now, is inet touching litte lament in Monday's Star, signed (in big capital letters)! “A HATER OF WOMEN.” gin with, the poor man says he has read your column “consistently and conscientously” for a number of years, all this despite the fact that same is edited (supposedly at least) by a woman, one of those wicked, | treacherous creatures, quite the lowest form of human life. And as he later reveals, they are ALL alike. Dear, dear, how dreadful Recently I have been associated almost exclusively with a class of | men, I refer to service men, who had very little money either for their ‘own use, or to spend on their friends. | There were some two of three hun-| dred other young women in exactly my circumstances. We had fairly g00d jobs and unlimited opportunity to work our wiles on other men who did have money, who were not in the service. These girls (all striving to gain all they could, according to our friend) used to go home from a strenuous day at the office, @#pend| their hard-earned money to prepare elaborate little feeds for these serv-| ice men, invite anywhere from one to| half a dozen out, just to give them a/ change from service “chow.” And when we went to shows or enter-/ tainments that were not free, as/ ‘often as not we went “dutch” on all) expenses. There was no thought of “getting something” in return. Later a lot of us married service men, most of them without pros. pects, and many of them now mak- dng a bare living. 1 know at least a dozen, and there must be hundreds more, who, like myself, went back to| work almost immediately. We keep house outside of office hours, make | our pwn clothes, do our own market f | ing to keep expenses down as much as possible, and then when pay day comes, deposit each check, un- touched, in the little bank account which wil some day grow big enough to buy @ little home or perhaps start up & businejs that will insure pro- per care ald an education for the kiddies that will come day 1 do not doubt."Ha ‘omen’s” | sincerity, but I do criticize his 4aste in choosing his women friends from the class, and w 1 know there is a class, whose profession it | fs to systematically “do” men, all| men, quite promiscously, He didn’t fhave to do it, there were heaps of the other kind who are glad to know and be chums with nice men, We hope he isn’t the sort that the other kind would not associate with.
