COMMANDER OF THE UNITED
CONFEDERATE VETERANS,

The Gainesville Sun contains the
following tribute to the commander
Of the state division. y. c. W:
1.-THE Confederate Veterans, recent
Iy in session at Pensacola, could not
have made q wiser, happier or more
excellent selection for commander Of
the state division than Captain John
i. Inglis. He is genial, companion
able, lovable and popular, and is pop
uiar because he possesses in such an
eminent degree the graces and quail
ties of comradeskp. Few men in
Florida are better known, few have
better right to wear the Confederate
button, few men have worn 1t more
persistently and extensively, and few
have q warmer spot next the heart
for it's traditions. He has worn this
button in his travels through Europe
and under the shadows of the pyra-
mids Of Egypt-it, indeed has become
a part of his wearing apparel, and the
fact that he has right to wear it is
one Of the proudest incidents in his
life. Captain Inglis was a mere boy
when he came to Florida from the.
classic shores of old Scotland. He
was yet young man when the tocsin
or war sounded, but no native son of
the soil sprang to arms with more ar
dor, few bore it's hardships more I'M
murmuringly or few braved It's perils
finish he was in the thiekest of the
combat, and It's memories are among
his richest treasures. He is tolerant
and broad gauged, and is an ideal Sc
lection for the place for the times,
and we tip our hats to the new COM
anander because we know that he will
wear it's honors proudly"

Dear Mrs. Thompson am a girl of
seventeen and have been receiving the
attentions of a young man of twenty
five. He has called to see me several
times but 1 considered him only a
friend. The last time he called he
had the audacity to chuck me under
the chin. This resented. Did l do
right In doing It, and do you think
he acted the part of a gentleman?
From other girls I have learned that
this is one Of his traits. Please tell
me how I may quit going with him
and still hold his friendship: or do
you think he Is worthy of my friend

THE CIVIC LEAGUE
TO GIVE RECEPTION

Among other plans that the Civic
League has made for the winter is a
reception which will be held at an
early date. This viii be, in the par
lance of the day. "a get-together''
function, its primary object being to
bring the women of the city into
closer touch.
The recent meeting Of the Fedora
ton Of Women's Clubs, lust closed in
Orlando, was splendid gathering of
prominent women-prorninen in the
sense of that broader culture, that
wider outlook. that more comprehen-
sive realization of the work there is
in the world for women to do.
Pensacola is not behind in the ac-
tivities of it's women, who stand for
what is best in the community life,
and it is planned to make this recep-
ton of the Civic League a memorable
gathering OF the women of Pensacola.

not like 1t. How can prevent them?
I never meet them away from the
place Of business and never have any
conversations with them. In fact,
they are the first to speak. I've
spoken to my people about it and they
think I am silly to notice them, but
it is rather embarrassing before
strangers and 1 cannot explain to
everyone that I never gave them
chance to make so free. r. G.
Perhaps you are quite young. my
dear, and the men look upon you as
a little girl In that case, do not feel
offended. They do not mean any Of
fense. If you are really quite old
and dignifed, just ask each one pri-
vately. some time, to call you Miss

do when they hear the men address,

OFFENDED GIRL.
I'D Why should you wish to hold
his friendship, If you expect to stop
going with him? / should not go with
him at all if he could not treat me
with proper respect, and 1t should be
very easy for you to discourage his
attentions. Every girl knows how to
do this, if she wishes to. AS to his
being worthy of your friendship, per-
haPs if you think 1t over you may
find that you have encouraged him
in his attitude of familiarity.
CD Slit skirts are very much worn.
Miss Anne Rittenhouse, writing from
Paris, says that they are not worn
SO much there as in the United States
But it seems that they have come to
stay. The slit skirt, properly worn,
is nothing more after all than an
overskirt. For instance, if you have
a dark blue serge dress and wear one
of the modified slit skirts, wear it
over a blue skirt a shade lighter per-
haps, or of some contrasting or even
of a shade darker. A brown skirt
may be worn over a golden tan, or
dark green skirt over lighter green.
Personally, do not like the So called
slit skirt, but the manufacturers have
sent them out in great numbers and
they have the cachet Of some of the
best women. OF course you do not
need to be told that no nice woman
ever wears any kind of skirt without
the proper underskirts. One hears of
this being done, but when one sees ii
one can readily judge that the woman
who doe it Is not really nice.
