Perhaps my childish heart was stir
red by vanity in all this, for l remem-
Der that ladies in beautiful dresses
would crowd to the bronze screen that
separated us from the public and
whisper among themselves, (which

scarf with the big eyes!" God bless
her!"
But surely 1t was a good thing that
at length life had begun to have a
certain JOY for me, for as time went
on l became absorbed in the life Of
the convent, and particularly in the
services Of the church, so that home
itself began to fade away and when
the holidays came round and excuses
were received for not sending for
me, the pain of my disappointment

I reproached myself with not think

were the moments when letter
came from Father Dan, telling me
she was less well than before and
her spark Of life had to be coaXed
and trimmed or 1t would splutter out
altogether.
But the effect of such warnings
was wiped away when my mother

to me also-poor, helpless innocent

figure of the Virgin, singing Ave

the church, where one of the Cardt-
nails, in the presence of the fathers
and mothers of the other children,
was to put the Holy Water on our

our Lord.
But that was not to be for me.
On the morning Of Holy wednes-
day the blow fell. The luminous
gray Of the italian dawn was filter

mitory, like the light in a tomb, and
a multitude Of little birds on the
old tree in the garden were making
noise like water falling on small
stones in fountain when the Mother

Advice to the
Lovelorn
HE Is NOT SERIOUS.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Two years ago I made the ac-
quaintance of a young man and
my parents gave him permission
to call at the house. He called
about twice and then discontin-
ued calling.
During that time | sometimes
meet him at dances and he
treats me as though he cared for
me. He takes me out, but fails to
call and that's how he keeps on
doing for two years He always
acts so friendly and he always
tells me I am his best friend and
a few more sayings. I love this
man. AF
If his Intentions were what you
hope, he would take advantage of the
opportunity to call at your home that
he might know you better. I am
afraid his friendliness means nothing
more. You say yourself that he calls
you his best friend" That doesn't
mean he loves you.

Your sister is so unjust to you
you will be justified In leaving her

Don't take any girl to such a place
unless you can afford it. Morally
there is nothing wrong in an after

HIS YOUTH EXCUSES HIM.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Kindly give your opinion of a
boy who got exceedingly angry
because a girl who had been on a
picnic with him would not sing
for him at 1880 p. M, also be-
cause she had not walked with
him coming home, another girl be-
ing at his side. Could not he
have left the other girl and come
with her? NJ. P. Q.
The Miniature of boy is too trivia
matter to be taken to heart. He
is not thoughtful in expecting q cir
to sing at such an hour. and his anger
over the other matters is not more tc
his credit.

Howell H. Heck.

Howell H. Heck, candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Prosecut-
ing Attorney, was born and reared in
Rich Hill. His father, j. j. Heck,
came to Rich Hill in the early sos
and opened cigar factory which he
has since run continuously. At an
early age young Heck began working,
in his fathers factory, learning the
trade. By this means he was able in
a large measure to pay his own ex-
penses while attending the law school
of the State University. Since his
graduation he has been in the active
practice of law in Rich Hill.
Mr.. Heck was appointed City At
torney of Rich Hill in April, 1918.
which office he now holds. He has
collected more delinquent taxes than
has any city attorney in recent years.
Mr.. Heck says the reason that he
aspires to the office is because lit is
a stepping stone for young man,
giving him an acquaintanceship with
the people so that he can share in
their law business.
: Being city attorney it is his duty to
prosecute violators of city ordinances
and in the discharge of this duty the
cases are governed by the same
rules as are the cases that the prose-
cutting attorney handles in the circuit
court, so that he is experienced in
handling the work of Prosecuting
Attorneys office.
He is free from all influences, and
promises that if he is nominated and
elected he will prosecute all violators
of the law regardless Of their social,
political or financial standing.
