Foster's Pre-Marital Advice Being Read In The Orient
Advice of Dr. Robert G. Foster, professor of home economics, to person about to get married has reached China. An account of Dr. Foster's contributions to a recent National Conference on Family Life in Washington D.C., and his picture appeared in the Shanghai Evening Post and Mercury newspaper on June 29, of this year.
The clipping was sent to Dr. Foster by W. A. Anderson, professor of sociology at Cornell university, who was in China the past year studying social problems of the Chinese. The article was written by Douglas Larsen and carried a Washington date line. International New service sent the article to the Shanghai newspaper.
In the article, Dr. Foster recommends that "a man should marry a girl at least six or eight years younger than himself. Women mature faster than men, he says. So at the start of a marriage a man must give himself a good lead in order that the couple can spend the crucial years between the ages of 40 and 60 more nearly equal as to sootillation and maturity."
The article also related that "It is Dr. Foster's belief that junior high school girls should date high school boys, that high school girls should date college boys and that college girls should go with the unmarried Junior Chamber of Commerce men. Marriages resulting from such courtships would end up happier than the ones between persons of the same age, he claims."
Tomorrow, Dr. Foster will speak on "Women's Contribution to the Mental Health of the Nation" at the ninth anniversary convocation of the Lake Erie college in Painesville, Ohio. The theme of the entire convocation, which is being held Thursday, today, and tomorrow, is "The College Woman in the Modern World."
On Thursday, Nov. 4, Dr. Foster will speak on "Meeting the Needs of Teen Age Girls" at the Kansas State Teachers association in Topeka.
On Friday afternoon, Nov. 5, he will speak to the Missouri State
Home Economic association in Kansas City, Mo., on "Family Life Education in Public Schools."

Randolph, Mass. — (UP) — When moderator William Condon found he lacked a quorum of 300 to start a town meeting, he called a recess so additional townspeople could be rounded up. The strategy failed, so a fire alarm was sounded. That also failed to produce a quorum and the meeting was postponed.
Lawrence firemen made a midnight trip to extinguish a grass fire at Prairie acre, historical landmark south of Blake hall.
