Deplores Pursuit of Pleasure
Dear Cynthia There comes te me
very often, as I rend this column, a
ridiculous nense of the semlpltlful,
semlludlcreus and scmldlsdalnful. nau
seatlnglv mixed, when I come acresH let
ters that lovelorn Infants have dared te
send In for publication.
It really is burlesque te attempt te
study them, and after that bad taste In
the mouth has passed away, we come te
the realization that all awful thlnp Is
taking place. The unfertunnte youth of
today lias tee much of the contagious
urban environment around him te Insure
normal growth and rtevclepmertt ; he Is
In the midst of a dance-crazy world,
marveling at the gayety around him and
envious of the gay ones. Inte whose
rnnkB he desires te be Initiated.
Th temntntlen and nllurlnK Immer-
nlltleH he Is subjected te are for the
most part Irresistible te the mind that
clowns dull care and peaceful occupa eccupa
.i .v.n the hellH are heard. They
drift slowly but surely Inte the corps of
"high-tuners, ana lane meir iniu.-i-.-i m
the march te ruin. It Is Inevitable.
And what a farce It Is te listen te and
-....i tv,e utnrieH of "rtunnv" love and
imnnttirnl Infatuation told by sallow-
.,i nhiMrmi In short skirts and kulck
erbeckers ! But beneath the laughter
comes te the conscientious, citizen a
realization that tragedy Is afoot; that
the verv cream ui me ir.. :.,:. :.,:.
atlen Is svastlng away Its youth
and pleasure In dance halls, at Innum
erable social functions, and places where
i..j.nrii. lead te Immorality nlKht

.nnrnlnir. And the remarkable thing
..i. it nil Is that the youngsters can
net even support themselves, let alone
legislation can etid must be effected

What you say Is unfortunately true In
muv eu'seH. but. mv dear yeunir man.
t lr.ws will net change tieeple. Leglsla-
2 'V,' r' ",. ,, objectionable hull, but
l1lrlsi.,tinn wm net take the tnBte for
dlstlnatlen from the j-eung. The rem
erty lies nearer home. Ixst the parents
have a little mere thought when the
children are little, teaching them Self
control und temperance In all things.
And let the home be it bright and cheer
ful nlce C If it Is only two rooms) where
the boys and girls can bring their
friends. There'll be less beau hunting
and street corner standing by 11 large
tier cent.
Bnactment of laws against pleasure
will net step evil ; it win ureaK out in
ether ways, hut proper training nnd di

help. What Is lacking Is proper foun

It Wouldn't Be Rude

Dear Mndnni Will veu nle.-ise selve
i rer me a small question concerning senv
Klfts for Christmas? I kile1 a you
wemnn te whom I Intend sending n gift.
I feel that the acquaintance between her
husband and me Is va bit mere formal,
rie you think that It would be rude or
peer taste te send her a gift 'and net
him? MISS P. H,
It would net be peer tnste or rude te
send 11 gift te your friend without send
ing It 1 te him also. Yeu could send
something for the house se that her hue
band could enjoy It. tee, or you could
send me gin te ner and inclese a ChrlHt-
mas cant rer both of them, ir you feel
uncomfortably about It. But It would
be perfectly proper te send her lust a
little personal Rift Just as you did before
she was married.

The writer wastes no time In flourish
Ing descriptions, or explanations; yet
the whole episode can cosily be
visualized.
She makes her "old lady" of sixty
very prompt nnd decisive; there Is no
girlish hesitation or coyness nbeiit- her
reply te the old man's proposal.
She doesn't like the women's home
nnd she Is glad te get nwny ; she makes
no secret of it.
She Is refreshing.
And nftcr nil, whnt could be mero
expressive than "all the luxuries alie
wanted"? Nobody could- ask for mere
than thnt, or describe It better.
Yes, I'm sure the author will hnve
some pleasant thoughts when she conies
upon this little romance about ten
