SWEETHEART OR JOB:

WHICH WOULD YOU TAKE?
This Problem is Now Up to Brook
Young Man.


New York, August ETHAN Allen
Weinberg, nineteen years old. OF
Brooklyn is in a quandary today. va
clllating between ecstacy and DESPAIR
AS the situation stands young Vein
berg is undecided whether it is duty
to serve hs country as a patriotic
and self-respecting young man should,
or whether he ought to chuck the
who'e business and resign himself t9
the fate of CLpid's irresstble arrow at
tacks. Here are the facts:
Weinberg, formerly a page in the
house of representatives has been
offered an appointment as consular
agent, with a salary of $1,S0O a year,
at Port de Aubres, Morocco. Being
a minor, he cannot accept the ap-
pointment without the consent of his
parents in writing, and his mother
balks.
Furthermore, bachelor entering the
consular service must not marry, un-
der the law, within four years, and
alas, Weinberg is engaged to Miss
Minerva Schreter.
Now Weinberg is cogitating. There's
a lot of glory in being United States
consular agent. But whether it is
enough to justify deserting his live
is a question Or, indeed, is it a
question? That's what he'd like to
know
Bhiefly, young Weinberg is a bit
more miserable than happy.

superior court yesterday afternoon, as
defendant in divorce suit brought by

MED the charge made by her that he
had written the grafton entitled THE

Mr.. Fenimore characterized the

be known as the author of it. He al
so denied having received half the
