ALittle HarmlessLoveM Making
Beatrice Fairfax Writes About Some Of Its Dangers
By BEATRIGE FAIRFAX


, for whom he has q passing fancy and
may fairly fight for his desire, but
once he has had IL the desire is salts
fled nd automatically it destroys it
self This is, Of course, the case OF
passing fancy which my correspondent
True lows is a different thing. It
declares itself honestly for. what it is,
and it doesn't have to talk about "a
little harmless lOve-making." because
it is above makilc cheap love. Since
il feels true love. il is big and fine
and stanch and sturdy.
"a little harmless love-making" gen
orally conducts business under such
cheap and undi gnified names as spoon
ing" "mushing" and other equally re-
pellent terms md there is no way OF
getting away from the fact that it is
harmful to dignity and self-respect
and all the dictates Of decency.
Decency to the Winds.
That is not too strong term 10 use,
for y, hoover cheapcns what ought to
be splendid and pure and fine is aetu-
ally throwing aside all and with deep
reverent emotion. On the other hand
there is cheap feeling, expanding it.
self standards of decency.
There is no such thing as "a little
harmless love-making." On the one
one hand, there is tr-e love, big and
unafl aid, expressing itself sacredly
where it chooses and expressing itself
lavishly. IT fixes up like sl1y-rOcl5et.
and there is nothing else Passing
fancy" is a delicate way OF describing
it. It is a thing Of the air and it dis
aDpears into thin air. Real love has
root and substance.
The girl who accepts the cheap trib-
ute OF a mans passing fancy lowers
her standard and his. She grasps at
air and has nothing.

truths by the multitude Of letters that
I get from fretful and disconnected
wives who, having everything to make
happiness in their lives. deliberately
turn their backs upon their blessings
and start out on a quest for wretched-
ness.
The trouble with these women. and
all the rest of US. is that we never
strike a ; alance when we audit our
accounts with life. We religiously put
down all our Losses on the debit side OF
the column. but we don't bother to
enter up our blessings on the credit
side
If women would only put a hundreth
part Of the energy into hunting for
for trouble we would have very few
miserable and dissruntled wives. The
woman who has got a good home, and
good clothes, and somebody to stand
between her and the buffet of life is

a LII LIE Whlle ago a letter came
~ to me which both amused and
hurt me. 1t read something like
this:
/ All in love with a young man whose
feeling for me is I fear, nothing more
than a passing fancy But ! care for
him so much that ] will be willing to
take almost any chance to win him.
And yet, when he wants to kiss me
and says that there is no harm in
little lOYe-IIaking, something stops me
phase tell me what to do; Don't
say what you think you ought to say
because ii sounds well, hut what you
honestly would do il you were a girl
like me-"
Now, it happens that what I would
do if l were that girl and had the
background Of sane judgment her let
ter indicates. and"what ] think I
ought to say" are one and the same
thing
When a man tells a girl that there

The Penalty.
The girl who let's a man kiss her
lightly in response to the emotion of
the moment, because he is man and
she is a girl and the fact that this
kindles a flare OF feeling" cheapens
herself in that mans eyes and makes
herself seem to him unworthy OF n
fine and serious love. And so it will
be as long as the vorld lasts and hui

THERE'S one search that never
goes unrewarded. and that is the
search for trouble. Those who
start out TO hunt for trouble always
find plenty OF #, and then some. The
ability, in especial, that women have
to locate a sore spot is more than tall
ent. II is genius. And il there's no
sore spots there. depend upon them to
manufacture it.
Now it is a platitude to say that
nobody in the world is so fortunate
as not to ave some sorrow or griev-
ance in life, and 1t is equally bromide
to say that very few are so miserable
and so wretchedly situated as not to
have something that is beautiful and
desirable in existence; and that the
secret of happiness is to find the one
and forget the other.

?. {. CHURCH MAY
|HAVENEGRO BISHOPS
Subject Being Discussed Today by

St Louis, Oct. 16.-Debate on a
Sproposal to esta a racial epis-
#copate was on the calendar today in
the mouse of deputies, the lower body
HoI the Protestant Episcopal conven-
tlon IN session here. It is proposed
TO amend the church constitution to
Hauthoflze the creation of dioceses of
negro churches presided over by
NEGRO bishops, and the removal of
NEGRO parishes from the supervision
3oI the present white diocesan heads.
The question has been discussed for
r. decade. Six years ago it resulted in
gIhe passage Of an amendment per-
emitting the election Of negro suf-
aragan bishops in the various dioceses.
fChurch leaders admit a wide differ
eence Of opinion. 1t is argued that
fhe creation of negro dioceses would
sharpen the line of cleavage between
Sthe races. while on the other hand it
rs asserted that such action would
enable the negro to keep more easily
knfs racial identity. That the present
6aw is not effectiaI is evinced. it is
asserted, by the fact that in the
six years since the last amendment
8no negro suffra gan bishops have been
chosen.
Announcement was made that the
mouse of bishops will meet with the
house of deputies late today to con-
$ider a pension plan for clergymen.
sAn effort is now being made in the
church to raise $5,0OO,0O0 as a pen
