me in every way. and

you, VIOLA.
Any dear girl, you are walk
ing i'm a nightmare. You are al
lowing your feelings to rule you
instead of your mind. You posi-
lively know what Is right and
what is wrong TO do. No matter
HOW you FEEL, IL you will DO
what is RIGHT you will never
regret IL.
know there are men lying i'm
wait for girls who are not as
strong as they will be some day,
and l know they are responsible
for much; but you are unjust to
your own sense of right when you
throw the blame entirely on the
man. believe from what you
write that the man did not love
you. He would not have spoken
to others of You as he has II he
did.
Every day, every moment Is an
opportunity for you to do what
Is beautiful and right. All around
you is love, and beauty, life ana
brightness, but you are allowing
yourself to remain blind to them.
You may seem to stumble, but he

Dear Miss Grey: Last
summer | kept company
with a young man who SEEM
to think a great deal of me.
| moved away, and We wrote
for awhile; but finally he
discontinued the correspond
ence.
When | came back on a
visit | met him, and he SEEM
ed very pleased to see me,
asked to call, and | named a
time. On the day he was to
call | waited nearly all the
afternoon, but he did not
come. | received no explain
alton or apology from him.
One day | met him. He
spoke, but l simply ignored
him. Did | do right? T. V.
Alt was rather a childish
thing to do. The young man was
very rude in not explaining why
he did not keep his appointment,
but you need not have been rude
i'm return. always think IL
cannot possibly harm one to speak
to anyone. because one speaks
does not imply that the offense
need be repeated. The young man
might again have asked to call;
then, would have been your OPP
portunity to refuse politely and
but firmly. In such case
you would have acted the lady
rather than the spoiled child, and
have retained your dignity, also.
Dear Miss Grey: Some
thing like six weeks ago l
was riding along road with
an old lady. She saw a leath-
er-covered notebook. We
picked it up and it had many
telephone orders in 1t.
Pretty soon a man passed
us. and she called to him,
asking IL he had lost some
thing. He said, Yes and
described the book. She hand
ed 1t to him, and he said he
would reward her; but he
never has. In the meantime
she has been in poor circum-
stances, and has broken her
right arm. That is why i am
interested in the matter.
Could not the telephone COM
pany do something for her?
JUSTICE.
Al am inserting this so that
the man who promised a reward
can make good his word II he sees
IL. do not believe in expecting
pay for every little Kindness, but
under the circumstances a little
appreciation would not come
amiss. :,
You really cannot expect the
company to do any
thing for they have no proof In
the case.

IMPORTANT DRIGasIoNs
City Can Hold Out Money Due j
For Taxes. : sig 4.

s Richmond, June City Attorney
Pollard has sent ane opinion to 1.-the
committee on claims, stating that the
City may hold out money due it fol
taxes in settling accounts with per.
spns the city may owe. The opinion
Is in regard to the claim of A. c,
Bedford against the city for $3.50
Bedford says that the money IS due
him on account of work done in erect
ing the memorial gates at Joseph
Bryan park. The work was done by
the. Richmond Structural Steel Corpo-
ration, although Bedford was award
ed the contract. The price was $4,250,
paid in installments.
I When the time came for the final
payment, $3.50, the city auditor held
up the amount, declaring that Bedford
owed the city s341.57 for taxes. Bed
ford filed claim against the city for
the $3.50, in which he stated that he
had been improperly taxed and that
he did not owe the amount named by
the city auditor.
The matter was sent to the city at
torney for an opinion, and he wrote
that if Bedford was improperly taxed,
it would be an easy matter for him
to establish that fact and that the
city treasurer had a perfect right
to hold out the amount due for taxes
in settling with Bedford.
