Advice to the LoveIorn
Why Not Marry?


Dear Miss Fairfax:
l have been going about with a
young man for two years. Our sin
cere friendship turned to love. 90
Everything was running along fine
until now.
His firm wants him to go to Flor
ida, they offer him from $50 to sec
per week.
l am anxious to see him make his
way in this world, but 1 will be ter
ribly lonesome as l am an orphan,
We are too young to marry, as he
is only Fl years of age, and l am
10 years.
r. V. L.
Under the circumstances, l really
don't see why you are one bit too
young to marry. You have known
each other for two years. You were
friends first and are now lovers. If
he goes to Florida alone, he will
probably be lonely and homesick and
won't give his best to his work; and
the knowledge that you are up here
grieving for him won't help him a
bit. If YOU are sure Of your feeling
for each other, marry first and make
good together. OF course you don't
want to stand between your sweet
heart and his splendid opportunity.

BY Jane Mclean

Attel a day of careful shopping
Margaret decided not to get a new
Winter suit. There were a multitude
of reasons. All the new suits were
trimmed elaborately with fur and
were, therefore, expensive. Mar
garet had fairly good-looking suit
from the winter before. To be sure,
she had relied somewhat on her fur
scarf to make the suit presentable,
but the scarf had disappointed her.
1t had not worn well. Margaret had
purchased it in a moment of eXtrav-
agance, and it was of that beautiful
but perishable fur. blue fox The
way ii had gone had been lament
able. 1t was faded in great blotches.
AMI looked worse than shabby. Tho
muff was in good condition still, but
Margaret had worn that so seldom
that it was not to be wondered at.
She considered her assets as they
lay spread out on the bed. One win
:er suit of good material, soft gray
in color, but lacking the stylish touch
that fur always gave. One blue fox
collar, badly worn and badly faded,
and one beautiful blue fox muff of
the pillow variety, out of style, but
in perfect condition Margaret sighed.
self, II could have the muff made
over, but it would cost such a lot.
oh, that's out of the question. 1
simply could not afford it. Why, 1t
would cost half or three quarters
what fur collar would cost" And
then she suddenly had a brilliant
idea. 1t was a daring one, and one
that she quavered over a great deal,
but it was worth the experiment, al
any rate, and she would try.
The great idea was this. Why
wouldn't it be possible for her to cut
UP the beautiful muff and make it
into fur cuffs and gorgeous collar for
her gray velour suit? Why. it would
change the suit beyond recognition.
The idea was so perilously wonder
full, that is, if one could imagine ii
panning out all right. that Margaret
was in a fever to begin.
She locked the door of her room,
got out her sewing basket. and with
Il pair of sharp scissors began her
ticklish job. No one who has not
tackled fur can imagine what an ex-
pertinent it is. Margaret was the
vcriest of amateurs. but she was inn
bued with a spirit that was not to be
gainsaid. and her scissors cut
straight although her heart was
trembling. On her success depended
the entire effect of her winter out
lit.
The fur as stitched in little rows
on the wrong side. Each row was
about half an inch wide, but the fur
was long, and therefore not difficult
to match. Margaret had a steady
head and hand, and before she knew
it she had cut out a fairly straight
pair of cuffs and a big, voluminous
collar. Now If she could make them

thought. Among them may be
mentioned B. NJ. Watson, Secretary
of the Public Education Association
of Philadelphia, former superinteu-
dent of schools, Spokane, Washing

The Winston Company, which in

announced for January first are the
following:

cleVerly enough and line them eX-
pertly they would be perfect.
Imagine" she gasped right out
loud, Imagine what gray velour
suit would cost if one were to buy
it with cuffs and collars of blue fox.
| Why she continued to herself, that
green one with raccoon was eighty
dollars that priced today, and l do
hate the cheaper suits. I'd much
rather wear last years model than
buy new suit and have it look
cheap"
Margaret discovered over a yard
of gray silk that she had bought for
| a waist, in the bottom of her dresser
drawer. This would do beautifully
! for lining, and breathlessly she be-
gan to line the fur, to shape it into
/ collar and to finally sew it on the
gray velour suit. The result was as
founding. What had been before a
nice looking suit had become an eX-
pensive looking luxurious model.
Margaret thrilled to herself, and pa
tiently went on bruising her fingers
but gaining all kinds of satisfaction.
When at half past twelve she put
aside her work with a sigh of relief,
the suit was finished. 1t boasted
wide fur cuffs and beautiful col

upon her shoulders. The pockets
had fur flaps, and any one who had
not known Margaret closely and OBJ
served her still more closely would
never have known the suit. Mar
garet, her tired. brown head bur-
rowed deep in her pillow, slept the
sleep of the righteous that night, for
she had faithfully earned it.
The next morning the temptation
to wear the new creation to business
was too much for her, and so she put
on her softest crepe waist and the

belong to a social club unless you
have been invited to join it, and to
receive this invitation implies large
acquaintance.
Neither can you join unless you
have the money to do so-money
not only to pay your share of the
clubs expenses, but also to appear In
a manner commensurate to the
standing and pretensions of the or
ganization. Social clubs are both
select and selective. The great ma
jority of the boys and girls of whom
l am writing have to take their
pleasures free, or at a small cost,
for every expenditure in any direc-
ton means a sacrifice in another.
The matter really lies in the hands
of the state or, as one of my cores
pondentS has suggested, the Federal
Government More and more the
state looks after the welface of the
child. 1t educates it, supervises its
health, plans it's recreations. And
when the period of schooling is over,
the state considers that having done
its best to enable the young person
to sustain himself, it is now up to
him to do SO. and it removes it's
guiding hand.
But the first aim and first duty
of the state is to conserve the lives
and preserve the comfort and hap
piness of its citizens, male and
female. 1t is vital to the state to
preserve the health, the working
efficiency and the morale of it's great
army of youth.
Now. it is almost universally con-
ceded that there are four things
necessary to maintain a normally
happy and useful existence: we'll
paid work, play, love and prayer.
Every one instinctively loves con-
genial work; every one likes play
and plenty of it; we all have differ
ent gods; and each prays to his
special one, not always in the con-
Ventional sense, perhaps, but never
theless, whether we will admit it
or not, we all pray to something.
And love and appreciation are as
necessary to all of us as sunshine
and fresh air are to plants.

with a respect she had long given up

all day. and she was at u loss to ac-

that psychologists tell us that clothes
give us confidence, and that she,
Margaret, had proved to herself be-

Just how much the suit had to do
with what happened that day, Mar

that she was called into the inner

girls in the office told her they didn't
see how she did IL on her salary, and
Jimmy, the man, had told her she
looked like a million dollars. What
more was there to wish for in the

anything but energy?
