Don’t Miss “Margie” Caroline Crawford’s New Love Serial. The Story of a New York Department Store Girl This Page Next Monday @ “it's a Great Life if the Bankroll Doesn't Weaken” By Fay Stevenson. ft, 1992 (New York Evening World) i CODYTEDY Breas’ Publishing Co. OW is the AVERAGE young man, earning a fair salary and quite willing to spend a reasonabte portion of it upon his girl chums, going to live up to the present demands of the AVERAGE New York girl? This is a ques- tion which is both- ering more than one young man's perfectly good young head. He may be an Adonis, a Lewis Carroll at repartee and a combined, but if he doesn’t fling his 4ollars to right of him and to left of him the flapper unsquirrels h&r ‘‘mad Money" and goes honte alone, “‘off of + him for tife."* Many letters from cligible young men have come to The Evening World asking just what a worih-whil young man should do. But perhaps the most comprehensive letter, and one which represents scores of other men in the very same boat. is expressed by the following young man, who writes “While everybody is discussing the ‘flapper’ and her ‘1922 model’ vocabulary, I wonder if you real- ize that a really serious ‘gir! problem’ confronts the young man in New York to-day? Per- haps my own experience will help you to understand it. I know that my own case is not an ex- ception, because every unmar- ried young man that I know is up against the same problem. “I am twenty-four years old and I have been living in New York City only a year. I did my bit in the war and am now trying, like thousands of other young men, to get a toe-hold on the business ladder, “I came from a small city in New England because New York presented bigger opportunities for me in the line I had studied, J got my job and am making good have already earned two although a stranger I have never been lonesome, be- cause I am a good mixer.

She had run away to the large ctty to get way from the narrow rules of her miserable home—a home ruled by, the doctrine of don't. ‘This girl is sweet and beautiful and good, and had heard the call of the bluebird, Somewhere in the univers there must be happiness, she rea- soned. Somewhere there must be a niche that she can fill, Yes, she wanted to work, but she longed for some of the niceties of life. She wanted some fun. The youth cried out for something to break down the monotony of young life. “I hate my home!" she cried; would rather die than go back to it, she told the kindly people who wanted, to help her. “My mother and father are always against everything that is pleasant, my life is just one rule and regulation, from the time I get up in of her her the morning until I go to bed at night. Theatres are wicked, 1 am told. I must not go with this rirl or that one for fear she will get me into bad company, I dare not curl my hair or think about dress for fear I might try to put on Bright ribbons are taboo. “In fact, my mother and father want me to look at life with their old eyes, and I must do nothing that the narrow people in the town in which I live might find something to talk about. “And it all grew intolerable, and 1 longed to get away,"’ she bemoaned, “and now I've got to go back to it, with nothing to look forward to."’ There is much to be sald on he side. It is natural for young peop! to long for the bluebird. And many a one will break the bonds that bind when the call of that harbinger of happiness becomes too strong for them to withstand. I wish parents and guardians would wake up and look the matter squarely in the face, and realize that this world has much joy in it it they will only find it. One of the biggest things that stops them is their willingness to listen to the blue-lawmongers, the self-ap- pointed and self-anointed, as against their human right to get something airs. out of this world besides woe and misery.

HERE is one point, now that the sleeveless gowns are in vogue, that I do not wish any of my readers to neglect.

Now to get rid of that rough, grimy look that the skin so often has around the elbow. First apply a good warm soap lather and rub well over the entire surface; in fact, give it a real good scrubbing, and then rinse in cold water and wipe dry. After that, if you take a piece of absorbent ‘eotton dipped in a strong solution of perox- ide of hydrogen or strong lemon juice and thoroughly swab the elbow with It the skin will become whiter.
