VIII You Be Generous?

There are two things our boys are

woman who is giving her country home
as recreation center for soldiers,
cigarettes and candy never go up

Both the soldiers on this side and in
France want sweets, but the boys here
would be the first to say. Send 1t TO
them II there isn't enough for both Of

selfishness out of a man.
How about yourself and your sugar
ration? oh, of course. you may be
sticking to your two-pound per month
allowance and all that--but wouldn't

thrill to know that you are going with

By

have no use for it himself You can
not possibly fall in love with these four
young ladies, so it would be fearfully
unfair to them to want to keep them
yourself Just reason 1t out and I am
sure you will not be childish enough to
want to keep all the girls for yourself
1t is all right for a boy and girl to
confide in each other. This discussing
everyday affairs makes a good firm
basis for the best kind of friendship
You would most undoubtedly make a
serious mistake, however, to follow out
the other plan contained in your letter.
| cannot advise too strongly against It,
1t is never correct for young lady
TO take young mans arm unless she

Gagged Wings

Dusk and silence sweet!
Then from within my heart long
Vain futter of Gagged wings,
Against its sides they beat,
Thus to set free song
OF the unuttered things.
You know my love SO well;
To give it speech I never sought
Until you went away.
Wings beat, but cannot tell
The things I only thought,
The words | did not say.
