Isaiah So: ~.

Cry aloud. spare not, lift up thy
voice like a trumpet, and shew my
people their transgression, and the
house of Jacob their sins.
Yet they seek me daily, and delight
to know my ways. as a nation that did
righteousness. and forsook not the Or
the ordinances of justice: they take
delight in approaching TO God.
Wherefore have we tasted. they say,
and thou seest not? wherefore have
we afflicted our soul. and thou takest
no knowledge? Behold. in the day OF
your fast We find pleasure. and exact
all your labors.
Behold ye fast for strife and debate.
and to smite with the fist of wicked
ness: We shall not fast as We do this
day. to make your voice to be heard
on high.
Is il such a fast that have chosen?
a day for a man to afiict his soul? is
IL to bow down his head as a bulrush,
and TO spread sackcloth and ashes I'M

and an acceptable day TO the Lord?
Is not this the fast that | have chos-

to undo the heavy burdens. and TO let
the oppressed go free. and that ye
break every yoke?

Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am a girl
of 20 and have been keeping company
with a young man about my own age
We went together for about year
We we're not engaged, but there was
an understanding between us. A short
time ago he told me that he thought
he was too young to keep steady COM
pany, and he also told me that he
didn't care anything for me-
think so much of him. 1t seems
sometimes as though couldn't stand
it. Sometimes think that don't care
what becomes of me. I didn't in any
way show him how l felt. ! thought
if l did he would think l was silly.
Did | do right in not telling him?
have had lots of chances to go
with other fellows, but L don't care
anything about them. 1 can't have
good time if / go with any other fell
low-I am always thinking about him.
Please tell me what to do, because
it seems as though l can't live ike
this much longer.
BROKEN HEART.
Ny dear, be thankful that the man
was honest with you. l think that he
is right about his being too young to
marry. He does not want you to con-
tinue a false hope, and he knows that
you are still young and will have
chances to marry, and-yes, really
fall in love with other men. So he has
done the manly thing. He probably
doesn't care for you in the way you
think you care for him.
Go out with the other boys. Make
an effort to make other people happy.
Remember that other girls have suf
fered just as much as you are suffer
ing, and got over 1t. Some day you
will meet a man who will fill your life
so wonderfully that you will wonder
how you ever loved anybody else.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: "a Please
suggest a name for a club of young
girls between the ages of Is and Is.

may make some money.
