OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec. 27—(P)
—County Judge O. J. Blinn today

er you think a woman of my age
and inexperience should undertake
bringing up a child. Mother Com-
plex." •
I see no reason why you should
not undertake such a responsibility
since you seem to have the urge.
I should not, however, think you
would want to assume the respon-
sibility of an infant, but would pre-
fer to adopt one who is nearer the
companionable age. While 40 is no
great age, you should bear in mind
the important fact that an infant
adopted by you now would run the
risk of being orphaned about the
time your guardianship and his
companionship would be most pre-
clous to youboth.
EVEN BEST SOMETIMES HAVE
DESIRE TO PLAY HOOKEY
Grown-ups are not immune from
the urge to play hookey. Come days
when one just naturally procrasti-
nates to a point which approxi- ’
mates playing hookey from the [
daily chores. It may be for one:
reason or none at all. Usually, in
fact, such backstepping results from
no better reason than “just be-
cause”—good enough reason for any
woman.
There is nothing much more sat-
isfying than giving way to the
temptation to put off doing what
one is expected to, or supposed to
do.
"I have a million things to do,"
a woman will say with considerable
exaggeration, as she settles herself
comfortably to do none of them.
It's bound to lead her into a tangle,
but who says that as a momentary
relief measure it is not worth all

Not to be capable of being swerv-
ed from the course is to be strong-
minded to a point beyond endur-
ance. You weaklings who allow
yourselves to be pulled off the
course always like to pay for the
privilege. Usually the price is con-
siderably out of proportion to the
value received. Naturally, methodi-
cal souls who work on schedule
must keep up with it or they will
be out of step all day. To be late

Ethical Standard
A woman I know who has led a
full and busy life tells me that now
when she has leisure it is Impossi-
ble for her to sit and read a book
without feeling, she Is breaking all
the rules. I can understand how
she feels, and also how the woman
who really can not give her day-
light hours to reading could be
tempted to round up a criminal or
get the lovers to the altar before
she orders the dinner or even gets
the dishes done. Making a habit of
such things is demoralizing; suc-
cumbing to such a temptation at in-
tervals is human. Personally, I am
afraid I could never be very severe
with the child who was lured up-
stream in the dappling sunlight. In-
stead of following his prescribed
course through the school room
door. With so many distractions dis-
guised as dragons to slay each day
enroute to school I can well see
how the child gets diverted from
his course.
