I WANT TO MARRY ....
"I am a middle-aged woman,"
writes a reader, "attractive, in
terested in people and church ac
tivities. My children are married
and have homes of their own. I
have been a widow for ten years.
But I would like to find compan
ionship or even marriage again.
Yet somehow I cannot seem to
meet any suitable men . . ."
"I am a school teacher in my
thirties," writes another corres
pondent. "I have a good educa
tion, can support myself, but I
am shy about making friends.
I'd really like to be married but
I haven't the slightest idea how
to solve the problem. What
should I do to meet nice men?"
Unfortunately, the chances of
marriage for a woman decrease
rapidly with her birthdays. Af
ter thirty, suitable men are in
creasingly scarce for a variety of
reasons, too numerous to list
here. A man usually marries a
woman younger than himself,
and his marriage year usually
falls in his twenties or early
thirties. A woman of thirty
would have to look for someone

Mrs. Everett Gillespie
Guest of Bridge Club
Mrs. Everett Gillespie. Med
ford, was a guest player for the
last meeting of Riverside Bridge
club Wednesday.
North-south winners were
Mrs. R. J. Conroy and Mrs. W.
W. Stevenson, first, 80i points;

older than she and there are
relatively few unattached thirty
year old men of both sound mind
and body waiting to be chosen.
This number decreases steadily,
as the woman becomes older, es
pecially in certain sections of
the country. A woman must be
unusually attractive, aggressive,
wealthy, lucky or a combina
tion of all if she manages to
find and net a mate after her
conventional marriage age.
However, the case is not hope
less. A woman who is sincerely
interested in marriage should
plan her campaign wisely and
systematically. She must make
herself as attractive as possible,
mentally and physically. She
must mingle with people and
show and feel a genuine interest
in them. She must not display
too much timidity nor too much
eagerness. If possible, she should
seek employment where she
meets men, and in her recreation
hours, she should join groups
which are "mixed." The Church,
the Y, dancing groups, commun
ity projects, hospital volunteer
agencies, hobbies these are all
focal points for getting together
with other people.
Loneliness besets all kinds of
people, says a recent magazine
article, but if a woman will keep
herself fresh and sweet looking,
and get busy doing something,
where people can see her, she
will not be lonely very long.

Petrillo Receives
Vote of Confidence
Atlantic City, N. J. (U.fO
James C Petrillo, international
president of the American Fed
eration of Musicians, returned
to Chicago today with a vote of
confidence from his union and a
clearcut victory over a dissident
Los Angeles local.
The 1200 delegates at the clos
ing session of the union's con
vention here Thursday voted to
change the bylaws to permit Pe
trillo to appoint a trustee to take
over the affairs of a rebellious
local.
The convention also passed an
amendment which prevents a lo
cal from voluntarily withdraw
ing from the federation without
the consent of the International
Executive board if 15 members
of the local object.
The legislation was another
blow at the "rebel" leaders of
Los Angeles Local 47 who were
expelled from the union for
various terms at an earlier ses
sion of the convention.

Some Plants Inhale
Better Than Others
Madison, Wis. U.PJ Some
plants are greener than others
because they "inhale" better,
University of Wisconsin scien
tists think.
The amount of chlorophyll In
a plant determines its greenness,
D. C. Cooper, G. H. Rieman and
W. K. Smith knew. That led
them to study the stomata or
breathing pores of pale and
green plants. . .
They found that leaf parts that
are pale have fewer or smaller
stomata than the green portions
of the same leaves or of all
green leaves. They also learned
that leaves which lose their
green color have undergone a
breakdown of the stomata. .
The stomata "allow the leaf
cells to breathe to exchange
oxygen produced during photo
synthesis for carbon dioxide in
the air," the researchers said.
When the stomata do not work
properly, the gases don't go
through the normal exchange,
the chlorophyll stops its work
and gradually disintegrates. That
makes the leaf paler.

Washington iU.P.) A United

proval of the application would

He said United will offer such
