Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am a high

sc much only girls who Just went to
grammar school, and some who didn't
even graduate, are getting just as
much or more than | am.

for four weeks and l have almost de-
eided to leave,
Don't you think that as long as /
am better educated than most other
girls that I ought to get better pay?
was always told while l was in
school that the more education you got
the higher pay you would get.
UNDECIDED.
Business concerns pay their en-
ployes for the amount of work they
can turn out and not for the exent OF
their education. When you prove by
the quality Of what you do that you
fare worth more to your employer than
the other girls. YOU will be raised ac-
cordingly.
Don't be gutter. Take an inter
est in everything you do, and study
further. The most hopeless person in
the world is the one who thinks he
knows it ALL

1t often happens that two young
people will. go on like this for years
caring for each other more than even
they themselves know, having their
little quarrels. and breaking up occas-
ionaIiy, but at the same time quite IN
love with each other. In case like
that there is only one thing to do and
that is to wait. At the present time
you and she are quarrelling probably
because YOU have different points of
view, but as you both get older your
views will probably become more
nearly the same, and some day YOU
may realize that more is to be gained
by giving In to each other more and
avoiding quarrels.
This girl probably knows that the
easiest way to bother you is to GO.

that means to make you come hack to

at all. perhaps she would not do it.
/ 1t would he worth while to try that

/ In most cases it is best for the man
10 be at least two years older, but per-
! haps in your case it is all right You
