Life's Problems
' Are Discussed
By Sirs. Wilson Woodrow
"Tell me, dear Mrs. Woodrow, w ay
must or should station in life stand
between the happiness of two peo
ple? Why must two persons whose
thoughts, idea's and tastes are ident
hal be torn apart, because one was
born poor and the other rich? God
l:d not intend money and luxury to
lie a barrier; then why should man?"
When I had read this far, I sat
tip and began to take notice. What
tore these two loving hearts apart?
lly correspondent had started off,
according to all the laws of con
struction governing modern tictton.
with a situation to hold the read
er's interest in the first paragraph.
As for the question she put me,
why should man regard money and
luxury as a barrier, I simply mur
mured: 1 "This is news to me. I have
always Uelieved that man in the
mass regarded money and luxury
as a goal."
She goes on: "The writer of this
note (I have not yet reached my
twenty-first birthday) has been rear
ed in one of those distasteful parts
of New York, among poor but re
spectable people. But school and
live years in the business world
have polished off the rough edges
to such an extent that I can truth
fully say 1 am quite at home with
refined and cultivated people. Keen
observation and much thought have
worked wonders, and I have now
educated myself so that I feel cap
able of holding my own anywhere
and at any time.
I have ideas and ideals of which
1 am proud, and even though the
environment in which I have been
brought up does not generally fos
ter such ideals, nevertheless I have
lived up to them, always hoping
for something better, and always
happy and contented.
"About a year ago I met a man
who proved very congenial, and this
companionship has caused a deep
and noble love to grow between us.
However, he is one born and rear
ed in wealth and luxury, well edu
cated and refined. We are ideally
mated, but his people have come be
tween us and have politely but firm
ly told me, that I was a designing
girl who never had had anything
and wanted him solely for his
money.
"Of course he knows better, and
regardless of this wants me to
marry him. But I have decided to
sacrifice my happiness instead of
my self-respect, and have declined
to enter a family in which I should

be only an outsider. And so I have
resolved to put him out of my life
once and for all. This may re-es
tablish me in the minds of his fam
ily, but this is going to break one
little girl's heart.
"But I am not going to let this
disappointment wreck my life. And
so I ask you please to suggest to
me some way to chase the gray
clouds away which are hovering
over me, and bring comfort to my
weary heart. Artificial enjoyment
and frivolity do not appeal to me
now, but rather the more worth
while things, such as settlement or
church work, and if you can help
me just a little you will gain the
heartfelt thanks and remembrances
of, A DISAPPOINTED GIRL."
My dear girl, I take you by the
shoulders so, and I give you a very
good shaking, so! There now: I
am sure you feel better. So do I.
I suppose you' expect me to say:
You are a noble girl. Heaven will
reward you. •
On the contrary I give you an
other shake and cry: Wake up!
You are living in the year 1918,
not in some remote early Victorian
era.
I am afraid that you are judging
life from the standpoint of that
lovely but oppressed creature, the
motion-picture heroine.
Be lovely by all means, but why
be oppressed? The photo-play he
roine can afford to be, for she has
the comforting certainty of a happy
ending to sustain her through all
her trials and renunciations and
sacrifices.
But you haven't. You lack the
camera's power of looking into the
future; so you want to be frugal
with your self-sacrifices.
You are, if I can jjudge by your
letter, a clever, attractive girl, am
bitious and determined to succeed
in the world, but you look at things
from a rather painfully convention
al angle.
I am almost willing to wager
that when the haughty mother and
the two scornful sisters—there are
always two in the pictures—appear
ed on the scene, you wept and said:
"Oh, don't take him from me!
I love him so. He is all I have in
the world."
Quite out of date. You should
have received the mother with a
pleasant but aloof courtesy, and
when she had told you that you
were a designing girl and only want
ed to marry her son for his money,
you should have returned fire with
something like this:
"I am so glad that you have
brought up this subject, for now
I can frankly express my own views
and explain my attitude. I hesitated
some time before accepting your
son, for, although he has enjoyed
more advantages than have fallen
to my lot, that is, in my estimation,
of small moment compared to cer
tain more important considerations.
"I may be peculiar in this, but T
am very particular about the sort
of family I marry into. My own
family-tree is buried irt oblivion.
My grandparents cherished it so
greatly that they took it with them
to the grave. So you cannot fling
the peccadilloes of my forebears in
my face. But you, dear lady, are
in a different position.
"There is, for instance, the
rather notorious case of your great
uncle, Ebenezer, not to mention
that affair of your aunt Susan's.
You, yourself must admit that Susan
was—well, not exactly the sort of
a person I could hold up as an ex
ample to my children.
"Still, so great is my love for
your son that I am willing to over
look these facts, although I could
never consent to be on terms of
intimacy with you or your daugh
ters. Good-by.''
Seriously, I fail to see where
there is any real barrier between
you and your young man, or any
occasion to turn ,to those ultra
conventional refuges for the brok
en-hearted—church and settlement
work.
Why manufacture miseries? The
world is quite full enough of them
without you adding your mite.
And take one last word of advice.
Enjoy all the motion pictures you
please, but don't takr them too
seriously. Also remember that this
is 1918.

"Don't tell me we have to get our
selves up in evening togs."
"No, indeed, dear, it's going to
be an informal dinner. Mrs. Thurs
ton said she would invite no one
else, and that we should have just
a pleasant evening at cards or some
thing."
"That's fine, just the kind of an
evening I like," Warren responded
genially.
"I'm going to wear that little
georgette crepe dress of mine. You
remember, don't you, the evening
we had the Thurstons over here in
formally? Well, this is a return of
that."
"I see," said Warren, to whom
the paying of dinner debts and so
forth was all Greek.
"I like Mrs. Thurston so much
better of late than I ever did be
fore," Helen went on gaily as she
slipped into the dress mentioned.
"Somehow she seems so much more
intimate. I used to think there
was a strain of underhandedness in
her nature, and I'm so glad I was
wrong."
"Glad you were wrong about
something," mumbled Warren, who
had finished his dressing and was
ready to start. Come on; aren't
you ready?"
"All ready, dear. Just hold my
coal for me. will you?"
Helen slipped into her fur coat,
ran in for a last look at the sleep
ing Winifred, looked into the kitch
en to give Mary a few last orders
and met Warren at the elevator.
At the Thurstons' apartment,
which was further uptown. Warren
rang the bell and they were ad
mitted by a rather reserved looking
maid in a French cap and fluffy
apron. Sounds of merriment could
be heard from the front, and as
rlelen was ushered into Mrs. Thurs
ton's room, she saw several expen
sive looking women's wraps. Mrs.
Thurston came into the room almost
immediately and Helen gasped out:
"Why, you are all dressed up!
You said this was to be just an in
formal dinner!"
"Dressed up? My dear, nonsense;
why, this dress is as old as the hills.
I'm just wearing it out."
Helen knew better, for the style
was entirely new and the dress was
decidedly handsome. She felt that
Mrs. Thurston was laughing behind
her show of friendly enthusiasm.
Once again Helen felt that indefina
ble something about Mrs. Thurston
that she had felt in the past. But
there was no time now for reflec-

tions—it was the present situation
that worried Helen terribly.
'Have you other guests?"
"Just some people from Yonkers
—we have owed them a dinner for
so long and we thought it might be
nice to have you and Mr. Curtis
meet them."
"But I'm not dressed—you told
me. you know," began Helen.
"Of course you're dressed you
look as sweet as a peach! Come
on. dear. Are you ready? We'll go
in," and Mrs. Thurston led the way
down the hall to the combination
living and dining room in the front
of the apartment.
The room, to Helen's first startled
glance around, seemed filled with
people in evening dress. She knew
that she and Warren were the only
ones there in ordinary clothes, and
Fhe noticed that Warren looked ex
tremely uncomfortable. Warren hat
ed to be dressed, but he was a stick
ler for conventions and would never
depart from them if it were possi
ble to avoid doing so.
They were all and al
most instantly the party moved in
to the diningroom. The table was
lovely, with candlesticks and elab
orate decorations. A pink rose lay
at each plate, and the entire effect
was one of great care and expense.
Helen felt her cheeks burn as she
thought of the simple little home
meal, served by Mary, that she had
given to the Thurstons; and the
evening dragged interminably
through countless delicious courses,
as she miserably tried to eat and
avoid showing her feelings to the
stout, good-natured man who sat
at her right and talked to her
about raising dogs.
There was little chance to speak
to Warren until, at last, they were
on their way home. The cool outer
air blew into their faces as they
left the lobby of the Thurston apart
ment, and Helen turned to Warren
with a tragic—
"Wasn't it awful?"
"Some affair," from Warren.
"She did it deliberately," Helen
declared. "She wanted to make me
feel small. Why, the meal was
elaborate enough for a diplomat,
think of comparing it with my lit
tle home dinner. The fact that both
Mr. and Mrs. Thurston were dressed
and so were their other guests show
ed that it was planned. Oh. it was
an unspeakable thing to do."
"It certainly did look strange. I
spoke to Thurston when he arrived
and he said that he often got into
a dinner coat, it refreshed him af
ter a day at the office."
"She schooled him as to just what
to tell you," said Helen vindictively.
I told you that there was some
thing hypocritical* about that wo
man; now I know it. Whv, I couldn't
deliberately humiliate anyone as she
did us to-night for anything in the
world. I shall certainly never go
there again!"

Movie Admission Now
Costs Seventeen Cents
Managers of motion picture theat
ers in the central part of the city
to-day announced an increase in ad
mission prices to seventeen cents.
The admission for adults had been
fifteen cents. This latter price was
adopted when the war tax on theat
ers went into effect.
At a meeting of the managers it
was decided that soaring costs to se
cure film releases, and high operat
ing expenses, made the second in
crease in admission necessary. The
increase of salaries and production at
the studios has thrown a heavy bur
den on theater owners, the manag
ers said, and the cost of keeping
their theaters in operation, they
think, warranted their increase in
the admission prices.
