Twists, Chelsea, Butterfly and Cinnamon Buns, Parker House and Dinner Rolls, Coeoanut Ring Rolls, Sugar Rolls and Individual pecan Rolls they'll win you TELEPHONE DOROTHY DfX VWV now and then I meet up with a man who discourses long and bitterly about the tri-flingness of the modern woman. "The matter with he declares, "is that they haven't enough to do, and that is why they are restless and dissatisfied. They have too much idle time on their hands and that la why they get into mischief.

What's housework nowadays, with all these new-fangled electrical devices for doing work? Nothing but child's play. Now if women had to pack in their own coal or wood for the stove, draw their own water, bend ever a washtub and scrub out the clothes with their own hands, as our grandmothers did, and if they had to make all of their husband's and children's clothes, they would be a lot healthier and happier, and ao would the remainder ef the world. Women have it too easy nowadays that's what is the matter with them." Whereat I wondered: Has the modern woman mere cakes and ale than the Victorian lady had? Is Ufa easier for women todau than it was in their grandmothers' time? Life is pleasanter for them. They have more fun, more interests, more excitement, but don't they have heavier burdens to bear, more responsibility, more things to worry over than the women of the past had? In great-grandmamma's time Pt woman worked outside of her own home. When a man married he brought home the bacon and thought his wife did her part by frying it No matter how many daughters a man had, he expected to support them until they acquired meal tickets by marrying them.

But nowadays the daughters in a family are expected to get jobs as soon as they get out of school, and often father knocks off work and lets the girls take care of him. Nor does the modern girl cease from labor when she marries. Mostly she only adds on cooking and sweeping end dishwashing and heusecleaning to the typing or clerking or book, keeping she was already doing. 'Of course, marriage has always taken a bit of doing, as the English say, in every age, but it a far more difficult proposition for the women of. today than it was for the women of yesterday.

Husbands are harder to get, harder to keep and harder to please. Parents no longer arrange marriages for their daughters. They throw the poor souls on their wn. and if a' girl wants a husband she has to go out and get him herself. Nor did Grandma have to worry about holding Grandpa, for when a man married in those days he married for keeps and he never dreamed of chucking out a perfectly good wife because fhe had got fat and lost her oomph.

Nor did Grandpa expect Grandma to be a combined cook and a child-rearer and a penny-pincher and They'll Win You Too naturally, it's Walker's Tea Breads we're making all the fuss about! They're so good. Housewives all over this city are turning to WALKER'S Tea Breads for their certain-to-be successful menus. 7-0700 a siren and a press agent, a fashion mode) and an entertainer who would always keep him in terested and amused. Nor were children such a problem in Grandma's time as they are now. Grandma took them in her stride, so to speak.

She loved them and fed them and washed them and rocked them to sleep -and taught them their pray' ers anq trusted the remainder to the Lord. She had never heard of vitamin, nor child psychology, nor the danger of developing an inferiority complex in a little brat by making him behtve. And if they sickened and died, she never dreamed that she had any responsibility in the matter, She laid that en Providence. Thus she escaped the fears that hag-ride the modern mother and that take most ef the joy out of her motherhood, and that makes the raising of one small measly infant more trouble and more anxiety than bringing up a dozen lusty kids used be. And in spite of all the new-fangled gadgets thai have turned the kitchen into laboratory instead of a place te concoct toothsome dishes, cool( ing is harder on the modern woman than it was on her grandmother, because she has been taught to believe that everything that tastes goad is bad for our stomachs.

Lucky grandma didn't know about balanced rations: She had never heard of H-2 and Q-T, and so she Just went along and laid heavy hand on the seasoning, and if people didn't live as long then as they do now, they had a better time while they were doing It. She didn't have to acquire gray hairs and crow's feet counting her calories and trying to balanee her proteins and car. bohydrates. These things being true, we can only pay that the men who think that the modern woman has nothing to do, do not speak from experience. They have nevei been women.

How to Cure a. lonchy Man. DEAR DOROTHY DIX My husband is a college graduate, comes, from good peopfe and in manners and morals is above reproach, but I feel that he handicaps himself by being unforgivably sleuchy about his appearance. He does bathe, but that is about ill- He would as soon wear a dirty collar as a clean one, and his clothes always look as if he had slept in them. I have argued, begged and pleaded with him about his carelessness, but it does no good.

He still goes his own sloppy way. He is energetic and anxious to succeed, but his ambitions are certainly not helped by his appearance. A DISCOURAGED wire.

Inasmuch as he is not willing to make the effort himself to be well dressed, you will have to dress him. I knew a woman who had a husband like yours who did this: Every night when he went to bed she took away all the clothes he had worn that day and replaced them with clean linen and a fresh suit and polished shoes. It wasn't any more trouble to put en the clean clothes than it was the soiled ones, so he did it, and went forth a well-groomed man.
