Dear Mrs. Thompson: Last week
my best girl friend had me over one
evening to meet her boy friend and a
friend Of his. Her boy friend took
quite a fancy to me and he has called
me up and asked me for a date. I
told him that did not know when
he could come to see me, that I was
very busy. He said that he would
phone me again in few days and I
should try TO keep one night for him.

THIS is splendid recognition of the CON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: % Many
Of the girls who live near me (some
who are not as old as Ii am nearly
14l go with the boys and keep steady
company Don't you think 1 viii be
more respected and better liked by the
boys because I do not indulge in this2
70 The older girls all seem to like
me. but those my own age or just a
little older act queerIy. Sometimes
they are all right and seem to be the
best of friends with me, but at times
they will scarcely speak. One or two
seem all right at all times, but can
not understand why the others act SO
queer. I always try to act right at all
times. All but one of my teachers liked
me, bat this one seemed to try TO get
me into trouble. Do you think she
had any influence over them?
80 All of the other. girls seem to
have plenty Of boy friends, How do
you suppose I could gain their friend
ship-that is as school mates?
SHY.
ID Don't congratulate yourself FOR
courageously staying away from boys
when the truth is that they do not
seek YOU. Just because you do not go
with them IS no sign they Will like
you better.
~ Something is evidently wrong
with you since You do not make more
friends and keep them. ASK one of
your teachers, who knows you better
than T. TO tell you frankly what the
matter is. A teacher could not hurt
you any unless something were really
wrong,
80 Don't feel badly dear, if you
find that there is something wrong
with your personality. Set about to
conquer your fault or faults. Until
you are pleasing to people you can
not have boy friends You are
very little girl, not quite "A. and you
have almost a whole life ahead Of you
in which You can make yourself liked. /
Besides, people who are least attrac- /
tive in their early years often develop /
charming personalities.

IRISH PATRIOT
DIES IN GOTHAM
O'Donovan Rosa Passes
Away After Illness Of
Several Months.
fRy Associated Press.l

IL
NEW YORK. June 30.-Jerem!ah
ODonovan, better known as O'Dono-
van Rosa, Irish patriot and Y
ZIONIST. died in ST. Vincent's Hospital,
Staten Island. late yesterday. He had
been Ill for many months.
He spent the last half Of his life in
the United States, 90 years OF which
were passed under an edict OF Danish
ment from Great Britain and her pos
sessions. Though granted a full par
don by Queen Victoria for his reyolu-
tionary activities in freeing Ireland"
a quarter Of a century after the Fenian
uprising, he remained to the end an
Incorporating foe to British rule.
England has proclaimed war
against me-" he vowed, and so help
me God, l will wage war against her
until she is stricken to her knees or
till l am stricken to my grave.
Born In County Cork in 1881 as
Jeremiah O'DoCovan, he later took the
name Of Rosa, and while still a boy
became interested in the Young Ire
land Movement. He was particularly
an admirer Of John Mitchell. grand
father OF the present Mayor Mitchell OF
New York, a leader in the movement.
Parliamentary agitation. as carried on
by Daniel o'Connell, did not appeal
to the young Cork mar who took as
his standard John Mitchel's statement,
IF / could grasp the fires OF hell I'd
hurl them into the face OF my u
try's enemy" and up to his death he
did not change this theory.
When he was q years old Rosa,
and several other members Of the
Phoenix Literary Society, were arrest
ed on a charge OF conspiracy and af-
ter nine months Imprisonment were
released on a suspended sentence IN
1859. Then he became associated with
James Stephens and Colonel John
O'Mahony in the Fenian movement,
and worked ardently as an organizer
of the Irish Revolutionary Brother
hood. until his arrest in Dublin Sep
TENDER Is, 1865, when the Office or
the Fenian newspaper, Irish People,
was raided. He was sentenced TO
penal servitude for life, but six years
later he was released and banished
to America.
