Yes, this is often done. But if the girl is wealthy and the man is nat, she should not give him a more expensive gift than she knows he is able to afford. Q.

It is a time to take stock of public an private affairs. > There is @ sign conductive to de- pression and a sense of futility un- der this rule of the stars. Activity of mind and body should overcome the unfavorable state of mind. Women may be especially sensitive to malefic aspects and for this rea- son they should exercise stern self- control. Domestic delinquencies on the part of members of the family {should be overlooked. Bishops and the orthodox clergy will deplore the rise of new cults/ and the introduction of ancient be- | \liefs contrary to established Chris tianity. ! Superstition will be widespread and dangerous leaders will gain fol- | lowers as prophecies concerning the end of civilization are broadcast. | An English astrologer, who has |foretold a war reaching to all parts, of the world to destroy the white man’s civilization, now forsees the, possibility of overcoming the Eur- |ope::m trend through American di- plomacy, but his view is not sup-! ported by other seers. | Civil strife in France, Germany .end other European countries is ipresaged for the early autumn when ;lhere should be expansion of trade Ifor the United States. Gambling and stock market spec- ulation will reach a high mark in the next few weeks when there \will be sudden fluctuations in stocks. Crop failures will stimulate specu- lation in wheat and cotton. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of fairly good fortune if they attend strictly to business. Love affairs may dis- tract the young. Children born on this day prob- ably will be talented in the arts and interested in science. Many of these subjects of Cancer gain dis- tinction. Helen Adams Keller, blind and deaf author and lecturer, was born on this day 1880. Others who have celebrated it as a birthday include Louis Chase, author, 1873; Paul Laurence Dunbar, Negro poet, 18 Charles Stewart Parnell, 1 | | Irish _ statesman, 1846. MONDAY, JUNE 28, 1937 Benefic aspects rule today, ac- cording to astrology. It is a time in which to push important business or personal matters. In the early’ morning hours let- ters should be most fortunate and good news should stimulate profes- sional and commercial acticities. ‘The date is a lucky one for sign- ing contracts or agreements. The wise will seek conservative methods and avoid what promises speedy wealth. Warning is given against speculation. There is a sign presaging the growth of wildcat schemes and wo- men are cautioned to avoid hasty . investments and other stock market _ ventures. Saturn is inclined to smile upon workers while this planetary gov- iernment prevails and many will en- Jjoy gains in wages through emer- gency production in mills and fac- itories, the seers forecast. | 1Ireland will be the center of un- rest and riots are presaged as po- litical conflicts grow more bitter. Amazing crimes are presistently prognosticated for this yeaf as it ‘advances. The seers declare that a campaign against the underworld will rouse more interest than any| other movement against possible perils to the nation. { Through the coming months, the, |youth of the nation just released| from educational institutions should | choose vocations with special care.| Trained minds and trained hands/ will be in great demand. | Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of success and happiness.
