Q.-About five years ago l
had a serious love fair with
a young man of my own age.
was then 18. l loved him
dearly and gave myself to
him body and soul-never
cared about the future, l just
loved and wanted to be loved.
He was rich and his par
ents objected to our mar
riage, so we parted after a
few months of real happiness.
When he said goodbye he
gave me a wonderful diamond
ring. | have worn 1t ever
since, never took 1t off for a
minute. Later when my friend
came to town, he used to call
me up over the phone and
took me to dinner now and
then, but we were just good
friends. never even kissed
him since he gave me the
ring.
Two years ago I met an
other man and became very
fond of him. l really think
love him, but not the same
way loved the first man.
He never asked any question
about the ring, was very good
to me, never lost his temper
even under the most trying
conditions, and treated me
like a sister.
A few days ago he came to
say goodbye forever. He
then told me that he would
have asked me to marry him
IL he had seen me only once
without the ring. A gossipy
woman had told him all about
my romance and remarked
that l had prostituted myself
for a piece of jewelry. l ad-
mitted frankly that l had
once belonged to a man not
for material gains, but for
real love. The ring was CIV
en- to me to remember a dear
friend, not for services as this
woman put 1t.
My friend is not Jealous,
he does not care what hap
pened years ago, his only OBJ
lection is: why should you
advertise the mistake you
once made by wearing this
ring?"
He proposed then that I
should sell the ring and hand
the money over to the Red
Cross fund, and notify him
and he would then come back
to me.
would like to please him,
since he Is gone I know I
love him; but | am so fond OF
diamonds, I hate to lose this
beautiful ring. He may never
give me one like this one.
Don't you think my friend
is too narrow-minded to make
a good husband? You have
helped SO many girls by your
advice. can't you help me?

pose than to bring social life to the
members, the charter had better be
turned to the wall and the meetings
discontinued, as well as the social
functions.
As brought out by the Rev. Mr. Mil
Ter, the object of the order is four
fold.
First, it is to preserve liberty and
see that il is preserved by others.
The speaker divided liberty into three
subdivisions: first, civic; second,
moral and third, religious The first
was given little consideration as 1t is
a liberty which is given the people
by law The second, moral liberty,
was discussed by the speaker at
length. Moral liberty according to
the Rev. Mr.. Miller, is not the privi-
lege of doing what we want to do,
but what we ought to do. Under NOR
al liberty, the speaker brought in the
three eras of man. the era of law
| which God brought with it, the era OF
liberty in which law is retained, and
finally the era of the reign of univer-
sal love through which we are now
passing. However, during this era OF
universal love, law and liberty remain
as two pillars which uphold the pres
ent era.
| Religious liberty was discussed and
| illustrated by the speaker by the case
of Spain during the inquisition. Spain
then ranked first among the nations
of the world, but has now fallen to
the eighth or ninth place through the
governments not allowing the people
to worship as they were inclined.
Another cornerstone of the Order
of Eagles is truth, as stated by the
sneaker Some little consideration
was given this. The main point
brought out was that one should de-
termine just what his purpose is in
life and live up to it in the best
manner possible.
The Rev. Mr. Miller soon passed on
to the third purpose of the Fraternal
Order Of Eagles-that of seeing to 1t
that justice reigns throughout the
world. The speaker told of the right
| of men who have failed In business to
declare a state of bankruptcy and
take other peoples money for theii
own use and then pay 20 cents on the
dollar in return. The speaker de
clared that this was justice in the
eyes of the statutory law, but an out
rage in the eyes of God and humanity
Several incidents illustrative of the
point we're related by the Rev Mr.
Miller. He called all of these nothinf
but rascality in the sight of God anC
humanity"
The fourth and last purpose of th'
order is to see that equality is main
tanned in as great a degree as pos
sible. The speaker said that all mel
are not equal now and it is the worl
of the lodge to bring about the equal
ity of all men. lie said "The worl,
owes no man living, but owes ever!
man an equal opportunity TO make al
honest living"
Following the address by the Rev
Mr. Miller, a vocal solo was sung b!
George Spearman, after which the OF
chestra and the male chorus respect
lively rendered selections. The bene
diction was pronounced by the Rev
Mr.. Miller and the services for the dc
ceased members of the lodge wa
