GREY'S
LETTERS

$50 often | have been
amused at the letters and
answers to lovesick boys and
girls. Yet, here / am in a
little quandary myself. When
quite young, | met and mar
ried a man who proved
worthless. worked and
supported him for Is years,
and when all my efforts to
make a man of him failed /
divorced him. Several years
ago l met q young man ten
years my junior and out of a
pleasant acquaintance a deep
friendship has grown. Now
this young man would like
to marry me; but the differ
ence in our ages is constant
ly before me, and / throw
'.cold water" on his honest
approach on the marriage
question.
Dame Nature has been
kind to me-and years of
grief and sorrow have not
entirely robbed me Of my
youthful looks and sunny
smile. Consequently, ] look
much younger than I really
am. Is the difference in our
ages too great for q happy
marriage2 In spirit and ac-
lions appear younger than
he. He Is 80 years old. /
may add that we are not
crazy IN love with one ancth-
Or, but we certainly have q
deep regard for each other.
don't see why q matter Of
years should count; yet, l
feel that perhaps / would be
doing him an injustice By
marrying him and keeping
him from mating with some
one of his own age
I would value your un-
prejudic0d opinion very
much. UNDECIDED.

About four O'Clock this morn
ing Dick was called to the tele-
phone and Harry told him that
Eliene was in very precarious
condition. Dick did not want to
tell this to me as he thought 1t
would brighten me but l suspect
ed his massage was something
about Eliene and made him tell
me.
When Harry telephoned they
had just called in another of the
best surgeons for a consultation
and were waiting for him.
Harry is nearly distracted"
said Dick. He seems to think
Eliene is going to die and says L.
she does it will be Judgment upon
him for his sins against her and
the mother of his boys"
Call him up, Dick, immediate
lily, and tell him not to hold any
such thought about his wife. OF
course she will go through with
1t and he must not for a minute
think anything else"
Dick called up Harry and
went to the phone. The famous
surgeon had just been there and
said that everything was all right
and as yet there was no occasion
for an operation.
'Margie l will not live IL any
thing happens to Eliene," he said.

same way at such a time as this
but most men have not the real

while my heart is saying "Eliene

me word as soon as he got there.

TAKING CARE
OF GROSSCUP

1t developed yesterday that State
Treasurer Edward B. Grosscup, of
Wenonah, is reasonably certain to be
appointed banking and insurance com
missioner, to succeed George LaMonte.
The term of Grosscup as state treas
urer will expire in March and La
Monte's term as banking and insur
ance commissioner will expirte late
in February. The Democratic leaders
feel that Grosscup, as chairman of the
Democratic state committee, should
be taken care of by Governor Fielder
this winter, and it IS understood that
the governor has no objection to na1a
ing him as commissioner of banking
and insurance, job which is for three
years, with a salary of $4,000 a year.
the same as that of the state treas
urer.

GREAT RIVALRY
AT ACADEMY

School Freshmen IN the third gama
of a series at the Academy gymnas-

was to 0, the Eighth Grade leading,
they appeared, and although the
Freshmen braced, they could not oy-
ercome the lead.
