CAMBRIDGE CITY, Nov. 2a-The
proposed sewer system, for which
declaratory resolutions have been
adopted and published by the Board
Of Town Trusts es. is meeting with
pronounced opposition on the part OF
citizens RemonsrTances are being cir
cuIated and are receiving a large num-
her of signatures. and the prospect is
that the project will be defeated.
While the need of d sewer system is
generally conceded. many citizens feel
that the present is an inopportune
time for installing the same Already
the tax rate of the city is 3.48 cents
on each dollar of valuation. The cost
Of the sewer system which would
probably exceed $50, 10000 would i'm
pose burden upon tax payers, which
under the pressure of the present war
demands, they are unwilling to bear.
Again, the demand for new school
building is imperative, and the school

One night / got very angry at him
over something that didn't amount to
much, but which caused him to quit
going with me. Some time afterward
I wrote him letter telling him was
sorry and asking him to forgive me-
Since then I have neither seen him
nor heard from him. He has class

f1) Should I ask him for the pin?

(3) If he wants to come back should
go with him?

Please answer these questions for
me as I am very anxious to know your
opinion. BONNIE C.
Dear Bonnie
OF course I do not know whose fault
| it was that you and your friend quit
going together. However, think it is
| evident that he does not care for you
or he would have answered your let
| ter.
ID Yes, if you want your pin, write
a short, formal note asking him to
mail it to you.
(2) He was not obligated to answer
the letter. and in not answering, has
shown that he does not care for your
! friendship.
81 That will depend on what rea-
SONS he has for his actions. If he
has misunderstood you in some way,
or did not receive your letter, then
you might go back with him and still
keep your independence. You will
have to use your own judgment.
/ (4) Yes, if you care for him.
