LOVE is A GAME FOR TWO ONLY

LOVE is A GAME FOR TWO ONLY
Love is a gem of purest ray,
But stormy waves are round it,
And dearly many woman rues
The hour when first she found it."
The friends Of a young unmarried
couple who try to help along their
love affairs usually make mess Of
; it. If the sweethearts have falling
out, they should be left alone to solve
the problem as how to make up. It's
dangerous, oftimes to NEEDLE with
other peoples romances. One may
suggest to the young man that he
should give the girl that he considers
all over befit of the sulks before at
tempting to see her again. Another,
quite as well meaning, will put him
up to write to the girl that he con-
siders all over between them. While
yet another earnest friend will sug
gest that he take out other girls to
pique his sweetheart's jealousy, cause
her to regret and arouse in her heart
a fear of losing him.
Between all Of these hints he Is at
a loss what to do. Usually attempt
ing to follow the course mapped out
by this one or that one, he may lose
the girl altogether. The girl is placed
in exactly the same predicament. Her
mother, of course, thinks that her
daughter must be in the right. That
it is his place to make overtures for
reconciliation. Aunt Susan advises her
to keep up her dignity, to pass him by
on the street unnoticed rather than to
be the first to bow.
Cousin Mary poisons her mind with
the notion that he has probably grown
weary of her and is cooling off-doing
his best to break the engagement.
Therefore she advises her to laugh and
fiirt with others while he is about, to
make him believe that she don't care.
Her bosom chum, who always yearned
for that particular young mans COM
pany and who secretly took his en-
gagement to heart, advises her strong
ly not to go to a house party she
knows she is sure to be invited to.
That they would meet there and a
reconciliation would sure to be eff
fected. This causes the unhappy girl
to send polite note Of regret.
The whole trouble of the pair is
there are too many friends meddling,
in their love affair. Each should have
kept his or her own counsel, and not
have worked on the theory Of this
one and that one to patch up their
differences. What proves satisfactory
with one pair of lovers proves quite
the contrary with others. All dispo-
sitions are not alike. Much depends
on what caused the falling out. Prob
ably some mere trifie each is ashamed

to own up. The young man has been
somewhat hasty in accepting pout
for dismissal, and seizing his hat he
rushed out.
1t doesn't take much to get up a
quarrel between pair of spirited low
ers, but it often does take great
deal to mend the rift in the lutte.
Loves chain may be mended SO that
it does not show the break, out the
break is still there. 1t is apt to give
way from the least strain, just as it
did before.
When q difference does arise be-
tween lovers, they should realize that
they know more about the affair than
anybody else could or does. It is for
them only to repair the mischief If
they can. Love is game which only
two can play at. When others are
called into it it generally endls in a
fiasco. Kind friends should refuse to
interfere, or to attempt to mediate.
True lovers will be sure to make up
all in their own way and In good
time.

evidences of their hand work came
forth this morning on the street cars
Nearly every man and woman who
came to work early this morning car
ried package under his or her arm.
There surely must have been
something doing in Topeka yesterday,
remarked one man to another on the
car this morning. Take a look up
the aisle. Every person in the car
has a package"
Maybe they are taking 'em back

in explanation. There was a good
deal of hurried buying Saturday on
approval"
But a glance at the packages was
had been great wrapping day in To-
peka- Some of the packages were
wrapped in heavy paper and tied with
stout string. These were to be sent
away. Women carried dainty little
boxes all wrapped up in tissue paper
and tied with red ribbon. Some car
ried bulging envelopes-evidently COR
tanning handkerchief for Charlie
and all seemed to be in a hurry to get
to the postoffice with their bundles.
Along with the wrapping yesterday
there was lot OF sewing in Topeka
homes. In the business offices this
morning the conversation ran some
thing like this:
My wife crocheted all day yestsr-
day. She just had to get the cap
ready for the kid"
THE women folks at our house were
certainly busy with the needle yester-
day. We almost failed to get anything
to eat they were so interested in put

their destination on Christmas day"

DECISION HELD Up
Court WithhOlds Opinion in
the HI. s. Sorority Case.
]. b. Larimer Apologies for
Remarks Made Saturday.

Decision on the demurrer in the
high scnool Sorority case, which
was argued Saturday in the first di-
vision of the Shawnee county district
court, was postponed for further con-
sideration by Judge Dana this morn
ing.
The demurrer is to the petition
filed by Ed McKeever to enjoin the
suspension of the girls who were
turned out for the term by H. r. Will

board on grounds that they were con-
nected with q sorority. Both district

Whitcomb, were on the bench when
the demurrer was argued
Judge Dana told the attorneys that
the ruling on the demurrer woald
probably b. handed down in two or
three days. McKecver, for the girls,
has filed two amendments to his orig
inal petition for injunction.
Saturday afternoon, late. J. B. Lari-
mer, attorney for the school board,
came near starting an indignation riot
in the case among mothers of the girls
and the girls themselves when he
made remarks ir his argument that
were interpreted by several IN the
court room to cast reflections against
the character of the suspended girls.
This morning Larimer, in q personal
address to the court, stated that he
did not mean ii that way, and stated
that the school board attorneys had
no intention Of giving the impression
that there was anything against the

COOL RECEPTION IN NORWAY
Lack of Warmth Among Neu-

Attempt to Gust Newspaper

BY CHARLES p. STEWART.

Christiania,i Dec. 20.-For the first
time since the Oscar II ssriled from
New York, leaders of the Ford peace
party today began to doubt the sue
cess of plans for a peace congress OF
neutraIs.
The expedition has reached it's first
neutral country and its reception has
lacked warmth, if it has not been hos
tile.
The unfriendly attitude of the Nor
wegian press has convinced the peace
voya gers that their plans to bring the
boys out of the trenches will encoun-
ter rough shedding among European
neutrals.
Lindsey Sees Hopeless Task.
Judge Ben Lindsey, of Denver, one
ship, today advised Ford to abandon
the peace mission altogether. Lind
sey is convinced that peace efforts will
be hopeless and he begged Ford to
change his plans and turn the enter
prise into one for finding homes for
war orphans

gestion. He is not at all downcast by

Lansing announced today that the
second American note to Austria on
the sinking 81 the Italian steamship
Ancona went forward yesterday, and
should reach Vierna tomorrow night
The note is understood to be a virtual
reiteration of the ginal American n
demands, with the Implication that it
is the United States last word on the
subject. The text of the note will be

Wednesday afternoon, Mr.. Lansing
said:
The note is about 500 words long
and although characterized by those
acquainted with it's wording as firm
in tone, is said to be less sharp than
the first note.
1t is based squarely, according to
these officials, on the Austrian ad-
miralty's own version of the AncOna
sinking, and while reference is made
to American victims and survivors the
reference is said to be more Incl
dental than direct.
The names of twelve Americans
said to have been on the Ancona
when she was torpedoed were re-
ceived today by the state department
from Ambassador Page at Rome
The cablegrarn reads as follows:
Twelve Americans known to have
been aboard Ancona. They were:
Mrs. Cecile L. Greil, first cabin; Jo-
seph Torrisi and daughter Carmela,
second cabin, bearing American pass
ports 1850 and 2SS7; and third cabin,
Alexander Potalivo, wife, Maria Mic

19; Irlando ased IT, and two daugh-
