Billy was the captain of his track team, the schoo! football team, and he had the any fellow in his neighborhood. One time he took a 17-year-old bully down the alley and licked him because the bully had been picking on some of the smaller youngsters. As Billy was only 14 himself, he was always looked up tg as a sort of hero by the other boys of the school. Now it was a rule of the playground that Billy attended that no one should smoke cigarets in the grounds. One day Billy came into the oftice | * of the playground director with the longest cigaret sticking out of his mouth that the director had ever seen. | He paraded up and down in front of the director, trying to attract his/ Attention.

Sometimes as I read these letter crapaly book of life, I wonder. J Or is that seemingly wondrous something, the majority of us believe to be love, only an imitation? Today I received such a letter. It follow Dear Cynthia Gre: Will you advise me take—it seems that one of them is inevitab!

Is the world never “well lost for love” Anyway, I think it will happen, unle man marry me and take me away. I have no means to away by myself. I am 25 and up to this time ensible’ and true to all laws. But I have not known until now how strong love can be. Will you, can you, help me? A WOMA) . You did not know until now how strong love can be— My dear girl, we never know how strong or how weak we are until we are tempted. Sometimes those who are most virtuous are not the most moral. They are virtuous because they never had an opportunity to be otherwise. It is the one who meets strong temptation, who is nearly caught in its vicious whirl- pool, but who turns back to a safe distance, who is really moral. . Personally, I do not believe a love that will lead a man or woman out of the beaten paths of conventionality is the right sort, or that it can or will be lasting. Love must command a certain amount of respect. The conventions were written many years ago for the protection of women. When one woman, or several, seek to tear them down for selfish motives, it is in defiance of the best interests of their sex. I cannot advise you as fully as tho you had confided to me the real reason as to why you cannot ‘marry the man you love. Can it be that he is already married? If so, you will be a wise girl, and later a happy one, if you will put him entirely and forever out of your life. There is one other thing you should consider: A man who is truly honorable will not encourage a girl when he is not free to marry. I do not advise you to marry the man you do not love, simply to get away. ‘irst, it would not be fair to the man. Second, it would cause you untold unhappiness. We do not ditch our troubles by running away from them, you know. Stay where you are.

RUTH. eee More Comment on Smoking Discussion Dear Miss Grey: When flapper |ism threatened to become a menace jto our nation, American men, born Jand raised in this wonderful jeountry, began to fight it in a quiet, but effective manner. Flap. perism is dying out. The question, “Shall Women Smoke," is not a question of right or wrong. It is rather a question of which shall be the new typical American girl? Will it be the girl with bobbed hair, men’s trousers, painted face, | ereen shoes, blue cane in one hand, red cigaret holder in the other, pa- rading the highway of the city; or will it be the strong, healthy, whole- some girl, the girl wo men dream about when we start out in life? "Those of us who still believe In marriage and the home have a pers fect right to love and admire the womanly woman, the kind of gir) that can lead us to a cleaner and better life. The man-aping, cigaret-smoking, bobbette we have nothing but pity, and sometimes contempt for. Women are not as strong physics ally as men, Smoking will ruin thelr health, ‘This will in turn eause an inferior future generation Jand that 1s what wo are going to prevent, or die in the attempt, for wo are Americans, and never lost a battle yet. SUBURBANITH, eo . Etiquet Query Dear Miss Grey: We have had an argument as to which side an eacort should walk on, tho outside of the street or the inside. Will you advise us? . dead, unless } Men walk upon that side which will best separate a woman from the crowd. The former strict con vention of keeping to the outside of the walk is not now closely ob- served. Good and Bad Luck Dear Miss Grey: Has it ever been jProved that persons born in the | month of October are more unlucky |than those born at any other timé? ROBERT. It would not be possible to tablish any such proof. | Luck is more or less a habit of |the mind, The one who thinks himself un- icky is apt to be unfortunate. | To believe in luck, good or bad, is |merely to shirk one’s responsibility for one’s own conduct. Nevertheless, many persons who would hate to be considered superstitious talk of their luck, But it must be noted that they always regard their successes as the | Just reward of their own merit, while their failures they attribute to “hard luck.” | | Wise Old | Owl Dear Miss Grey—Why is the owl always referred to as being. wise, jand how did the saying originate? G. R. There is no special reason for this, jSave thé especially knowing look of | the bird and his blase air, seeming to |say that he has seen all of life and lis unmoved by anything that might | happen. Always {it is the apt phrase that lives, and this one is so suggestive to every one that looks at the owl that it has become proverbial. eee Take Care of Return Checks Dear Miss Grey:—Here {!s some: thing that might be of interest to Rose Jar readers: When checks come back from the bank, a good way to straighten out accounts for the month is to paste jthe checks on the stubs. The returned check is in itself a receipt and takes care of that part of the business. The large check books having three stubs on a page are a little easier to handle than the small books. A rub- ber snapped around the returned checks keeps them from the blank | |part of the book and causes no in jconventence. ‘This is really worth trying, for verifies the monthly statement an preserves the checks and does away with the necessity of keeping re ceipts, Not Exemp Dear Miss Grey son exempt from pe # sa single per ‘sonal taxes?
