Dear Miss Grey: A neighbor
of mine says the national hymn
of the United States is "Ameri-
ica." l say it is the Star
gled Banner" Will You please
print this letter with your an
swer in the columns as soon as
you can as proof?
PATRIA.
1.-THE Star Spangled Banner" Is
regarded as the national hymn Ow-
ing to the fact that it has been
adopted by the army and navy and
various patriotic societies. "Amer-
ica," however, is taught in the
public schools just the same as the
other, and il is tho custom Of
American audiences to rise when
it is played or sung. As far as any
patriotic issue is concerned,
think one is just as symbolic Of
freedom and democracy as the
other.
Dear Miss Grey: Kindly state
what class VIC means in the
QUESTIONABLE? v.
Those classified thus are ITO
tally and permanently physically
or mentally unfit for military serv-
ice."
Dear Miss Grey: We are two
college girls who play tennis.
While we were playing together
recently, two boys, with whom
we are acquainted but not on in
innate terms, came to the
courts. All of the courts were
filled and they could not play.
Some of our friends say we
should have asked them to play
with us. Do you consider that
it was a breach OF etiquet upon
our part not to ask them?
TWO GIRLS.
IL was your privilege to do just
as you preferred. You had begun
your game alone and could not he
criticised IL you continued il. On
the other hand, IL you wished part
ners, you could have asked these
boys IL they would like to play.
Dear Miss Grey: I have nice
little family of five children.
The youngest is two months old.
My husband does not care for
this last child as he does for
the others. He did not want
1t, will not look at 1t and is not
willing to provide what 1t needs.
l worried and grieved before
the baby was born, but thot the
father would love 1t after 1t
came. But he Is more unkind
than ever. / love the poor lit
tie one dearly, yet because he
is not getting the treatment he
deserves, / must put him some
where where he will be brot up
right. Where can l find such q
place for him?
HEART-BROKEN MOTHER.
DO not give up your baby. Sure
ly as the little one grows older its
fathers heart will soften toward
him. The attitude Of your hus-
band Is that of foolish boy. He
should be brOt to realize that his
duty as q father extends to all OF
his children. Perhaps the judge
of the Juvenile court could bring
this realization more fully upon
him than anyone else.
Dear Miss Grey: Can a person
who has served a years time in

flee again. II he has been par
dOned before his sentence expires
