WHAT SHALL POOR GIRL DO?
By DOROTHY DIX.
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer

! tance served only to make them dearer
to each other, if no other woman had
power to charm the man, and no other
man could make the girls heart beat
quicker then they might go ahead with
the wedding without fear for the fu-
ture.
But IL absence weakens the tie be-
tween a couple, and their affection is
so fragile IL cannot endure the test of
association with other people, then
surely it is a good thing to find it out
on the safe side of the altar, for di-
vcrce is a messy thing and unpleasant
to have about the premises.
Personally / should not think that
it would be very difficult for a girl
to remain true to her Sammy, when
she compared him with the slackers
who remain at home. Between the
stalwart, clear eyed youth who rose
up and answered Here" to his
country's call for men to defend it,
and the fellow who lets some other
man fight his battle while he es-
corts girls to the movies, or hands
around tea, or fox trots with them,
there isn't much choice for a wom-
an who wants a real man for a hus-
band.
So don't be afraid. girls, that It
will shake your allegiance to Sammy
for you to receive a few attentions
from other men. If you really love
Sammy, and are a worth while wom-
an, fit to be a brave mans wife,
you will be faithful to him. And
If you are of the type that prefers
lounge lizards, why. you will be
doing Sammy an inestimable favor
by marrying somebody else.

HOROSCOPE.
Monday, October 1, 1917.

This is an unusually fortunate day,
according to the reading of the stars,
for Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus
are all in benefic aspect.
1t is per-eminently a rule under
which to make large plans, financial
political and military.
The. rule presages the need OF great
constructive ability and indicates the
rise to fame of two men now un-
known through a national exigency
that appears to be a supreme calam-
ity.
Mars foreshadows recognition, praise
and benefits for our soldiers, who will
affect Europe "by ways of peace"
more than by deeds of conflict In
the next two months, the seers de-
clare. This is interpreted to mean
that American ideals and customs
will make a lasting impression
abroad.
There Is a sign believed to fore
shadow success through new inven-
tions that are to be exploited at the
beginning of the new year.
Uranus again gives promise of sue
cess for those who study occult sub
jects and investigate psychic laws and
will be particularly strong in in
fluence at Washington, D. c.. where
men high in the government will hear
prophecies concerning themselves.
This should be a favorable sway
under which to buy and sell. 1t !:
supposed to be most beneficial for
commerce and manufactures.
This month will show gains in the
public revenue, It is prophesied. but
expenditures will continue to increase
in unexpected channels, the seers dec,
clare.
Theaters should find the next few
weeks a time of harvest and man
ayers should prepare in days of fat
ness for the lean period that is in
dicated late in the season.
Many sensations have been prognos
ticated for this week when the star!

country and those who may die for
it."
Now. isn't that a lovely letter
from a neighbor across the border?
How many American girls, busy
getting an education. take the time
this sweet Mexican girl is taking
to make life happier and more
comfortable for our brave fighting
men?
Mother says that Natalie must
not imagine that her people are
misunderstood by Americans. All
intelligent Americans know how
good and how fine the majority of
Mexicans are. The reason we see
the bandits and lower classes in
moving pictures is because they are
picturesque. People like the pic
turesque and thrilling in moving
pictures and, of course, a bandit is
thousand times more exciting
than a banker or a planter. And
then. too, Mexican young girls are
kept SO secluded that they never
do anything sensational. so that
picture makers are obliged to use
the kinds of people who work up
exciting scenes in the movies.
For ever so many years West
ern desperadoes were depicted in
our art and literature to such an
extent that people might well i'm
agine the whole Western part of
peradoes. Judging from what we
saw and read we might fancy that
the only good people who ever
straycd Westward were tenderfeet
and missionaries.
We hope Natalie will see this
point of view and be able to laugh
at pictures of Mexican bandits as
we Americans have laughed-and
still laugh-at our Western des-
peradoes, since the days of our
great tgrandmothers.

and they unconsciously and ineyita-
bly, drift apart. Neither one is to
blame.
They were the playthings of ma
ture. War has caused her to pull an
other string on which she made them
dance. They are separated. and find
other partners. and thank Heaven
that they found out in time that the
impulse which they mistook for love
was not real love. Other engage
ments will be broken because the men
who came back from war will come
back changed. They will not be the
same Sammies who went away. Some
of them will come back broken in
body and spirit. and 1t will take big,
strong. great-hearted women to take
these wrecks into their arms and nurse
them back to manhood again.
Other Sammies who went into the
war gay and laughing boys will come
out sober, serious-minded men. older
than their years, and they may not
want for wives the silly, frivolous
little girls who were the ideals of
their callow youth.
So for these, and hundred other
good reasons. advise the girls who
are engaged to soldier boys not to
retire to a nunnery while their sweet
hearts are away. And above all I
entreat them not to commit the folly
of becoming war brides on the theory
that a marriage certificate is a GER
tificate of faithfulness. 1t is wis
est and best to keep the door of
freedom open for both parties

"Why are Mexicans in moving pic
lures always represented as bandits
and cutthroats?" asks one of my cor
respondents. She requests me to pub
lish a letter in which she protests
against this portrayal of Mexican
characters. I really believe you will

and was countered by the British Ad-
miralty long in advance, according to
several men high in the confidence Of
the home Offices of the British and

Germany will fall said British
