JANUARY 8, POUGHKEEPSIE NEW YORKER PAGE SEVEN Dorothy Dix Letter Box. Perhaps the girl will grow tired of waiting and fall in love with some other man while you are gone. Perhaps when you are away from the girl you thought you loved and the physical attraction that, drew you to her fades out, you will thank God you didn't marry her. WISER TO WAIT DEAR MISS DIX: We are 20 and 21 years of age. Both have jobs payIng small salaries, but together we could be self-supporting by both working for a while.

There are two major dimculties. The first is that he may be drafted. Also, he is attending night school in order to fit himself for advancement. Would our being martled hamper him In his studies? And also should we wait whether until he is more certain about he will be drafted? We are tired of walting. but we don't want to rush into A marriage that may be spoiled by our going into It before we are ready for It.

Are we mistaken 'in our desire to take our happiness, while we are still young. especially since in view of the world's situation the future and its possibilities are so uncertain? UNDECIDED ANSWER: I wish I knew how to answer that question, because every mail now brings me letters from other troubled young lovers who ask whether it is better to marry or not to marry when the bridegroom must go from the altar to the army. But it is beyond my poor abilities to solve that problem. It needs one with the wisdom of Solomon and the gift of prophecy and who 15, besides, a dispenser of good luck to know whether to tell these youngsters to listen to the voice of prudence or to -the cry of their own hearts. A Heavy Responsibility Prudence says: Walt, Don't load yourselves down with more and heavy responsibilities when you are entering upon a new phase of life in which you cannot foretell what is going to happen to you from day to day.

Prudence also says that the test of love is absence. Perhaps yours will not be strong enough to stand it. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am woman of 25; been making my own living for several years. I have been going with a man who is 28. He is attractive and I suppose I am in love with him, but he is not ambitious, has never made more than a mere living for himself.

Considering my ambition and surplus energy, do you think that I can risk depending on him for my living and happiness? He tells me continually that he could get somewhere in the world with me for an inspiration, but I ANT inclined to be doubtful: HAZEL ANSWER: You are well to be doubtful, Hazel, for if' a man hasn't enough initiative to do things for himself, he will never do them for Any woman. Every drunkard tells the woman he is in love with that if she will marry him he will never thirst for a highball again. Every gambler assures his -sweetheart that if he had her little white hand in his it would never itch for cards again. Every ne'er-do-well persuades the girl he wants marry that he only needs her to galvanize him into action. And the trouble is that because girls can belleve anything that they want to believe, they fall for this line and marry their sots and gamblers and lazybones, only find out that marriage isn't a curative agent and that the man who drank before marriage drinks afterward; that the gambler still gambles and the lazy man still sits down on the do-nothing stool.

think no marriage is more un fortunate than that between An energetic, ambitious woman and that of an unambitious man because the wife -is always trying to. prod the husband into action and the husband always balks and always regards his wife as a slave-driver and comes to hate her for It. DEAR MISS DIX: My mother makes us so. unhappy because she will take no part in the life about us, yet' she expects us to stay with her all the time. father tries so hard to get her interested in the moving pictures, but she won't do it, so goes alone.

Isn't there. anything we can do about it? R. E. ANSWER: Not unless you can make her see what an injustice she is doing to both you and your father. She has let herself get into a rut and she finds it easier to stay in it than to make the exertion of climbing out and mixing with other people.

If your mother won't go out anywhere, that's her business, but don't let her sacrifice you to her whim. Go and leave her and have a good time. Perhaps when she finds out that she is left by herself she will brace up and step out some. DOROTHY DIX cannot reply personally to readers, but will an- The Bell Syndicate, Germania Singing' Society To Meet Tomorrow swer problems of general interest through her column.

The- opera, Feb, 10, at the Opera House, is for the benefit of the New York Vassar Club Scholarship. It some of these self-elected critics, who are always sounding off on what is wrong with American women would take a long, close look at American men they could really bang-up piece. The number one fault, they'd have to admit, is that American men are so critical of American women.

A woman may get annoyed or disgusted on critical of one man in particular -but in general American women really like men and find few faults with them as a group. But American men rarely have anything but criticism for women as A group. Number two fault of American men is their insatiable appetite for flattery. It's gotten so bad that their keep telling 1S: "Tell us we're wonderful all the time or we'll find some other woman who will." MARRIAGE 1 IS ONE- WAY STREET Number three fault is their refusal to accept a fifty-fifty responsibility for making a marriage happy and successful, They rush a girl off her feet, marry her and then stt back and dare her to, try and hold them. Whether the marriage flourishes or flounders is entirely her responsibility.

Then there is that little matter of dullness. All too often the American husband is a good fellow away from home, a genial host if there are guests, but a mighty dull companion there is no one around but the little woman. Alone with his loving spouse he can't even be bothered to make conversation, and his home manners are A sorry sight compared with his office and social manners. Any man who doesn't believe these are fairly typical faults of the American husband ought to see the letters that come to me from wives.
