DEAR MISS FAIRFAN:
am nineteen and married and

happy as others are. Since the
day married life has gone
wrong with me. My husband
never takes me out. and he hard
ly ever works. and / am tired Of
him. What made me marry
young was that my parents in
sisted. Everybody says I'm nice

life yet. Please advise me what

A CONSTANT READER.

You are very young, my poor child,
to be facing these problems and re-
sponsibilities. There should certain
ly be a limit OF endurance in a wife's
dealings with her husband, but ! urge
you not to be hasty In assuming that
yours cannot mend his ways. Since
you cannot at present depend on him
for companionship. why not try to
build up a life Of your own? Reach
out for as many friends and as many
interests AZ possible. Perhaps this
will make your husband more eager
to gain your respect and he will
therefore change his course.

ssHonOr's Cross" Has
Stirring Gang Fight.

Gang fights in motion picture
productions are not uncommon,
but for foreclosures and dam
age wrought, it is doubtful ii
there ever was one comparable
with that in "Honor's Cross"
a Selexart production, to be seen
Friday, Dec. 6, at the Nogales
Theatre.
The combat takes places in a
saloon dance hall used as head
quarters by a gang of gunner.
While a carbaret show is at its
height, the leader of an oppos-
ing band appears, followed by a
number of his cronies, their ar
rival confirming the headquar-
tiers gangs suspicion that the
rival leader had come to do bat
tie. ''''.'+ '''''. 3
Gentleman jim" Cabot, a
former pugilist and head of the
home gang, approaches the OPP
posing leader to demand an ex-
PLANTATION. He gets it in the
form Of a blow to the jaw that
fells him. That punch starts
a fight that is not concluded un-
til every one of the gangsters
is stretched out on the floor.
Every chair, table, mirror and
drinking glass is shattered in
the fight, the proprietor and
employees having left everything
st the mercy of the gangsters
in their flight to safety. A
score or more of police reserves
are seen scrambling into the
battle pit. One of them spies
Cabot, the leader, and rushes to
capture him. Then follows a
The daily morning oasis., 1918-12-05

fight almost as furious as the
one the police came to quell.
Wearied by his previous work
against the opposing gunner,
Cabot is about to surrender
when he spies a whiskey bottle
on the floor and rushes to grab
it.
Before the policeman can get
away, Cabot lifts the bottle over
his head and brings it down on
the bluecoat's head with all the
strength at his command. The
blow kills the policeman, and
Cabot escapes to his home, but
is later captured after another
stirring fight with four police
men.

MASTER BUILDERS ID TAKE ACTION ON HOUSING PLAN Will Hold Meeting Tuesday to Protest Against
 Continuance. DECLARE NEED
 HAS PASSED Also Take Ground That Sites For Some of Houses
 is Unsanitary.

Action against the completion of this city upon projects not actually in progress is to be taken by the Mas ter Builders association of the city at a meeting to be held next Tuesday evening, and a protest against the continuation of the program on the ground that it is now unnecessary has already been made. This action is upon the ground that the sites of some of the housing projects are not sanitary that the type of building be- ing erected is one not suited to the best interests of the city, and that the building code which other build CTS are obliged to obey has been sus- pended for the benefit of these pro- jects.
 Charles B. Marsh is head of a com mittee which has already sent in a protest to the department in charge, two senators from the state, Bran degee and Mclean, and to Congress man Schuyler Merritt, representing this district No interference with work actually in progress is contem- plated, but projects planned, but not actually commenced are protested against on the ground that the emer- gency for which they were planned no, longer exists.

MURDERED MANS
 SON TESTIFIES

Salvatore Scrofani, 10 year old son of George Scrofani of 62 Lexington avenue told Coroner J. J. Phelan this morning that he was present when Charles Piazzo and his father quar- reled in the store, and saw Pfazso seize the knife. and plunge it into his fathers body. This followed quarrel about payment for the store which Scrofani and Carmine lorio bought about three weeks ago from Piazzo.
 The boy told the coroner that after the quarrel, in which his father had offered to give Piazzo $100 on the price of the store, they wrestled for a few moments, and then Piazzo grabbed a large knife which was ly- ing on a counter and stabbed his father.
 After the stabbing scrofani, the boy said, broke the handle from the knife in trying to withdraw it from the wound, then seized the blade and managed to pull it out. and threw ii one side. He then started after Piazzo who had run from the store. Iorfo told the coroner there had been a dispute about the payment for the store and the day preceding the quarrel Piazzo and Scrofani went tc the United Illuminating Co. to trans fer the electric account to the new firm. He was not present at the final quarrel.

TWO INJURED IN FIGHT AT CHINESE
 EATING PLACE

Long Tow, a waiter in the Chinese restaurant conducted at 65 State street, and John Gonsalves of S4 High land avenue are both in St. Vincent's hospital suffering from severe bruises and lacerations as the result of free for-all fight in the restaurant at noon today.
 According to Gonsalves the fracas started shortly after Long had placed before him, what was supposed to be a delicious meal, but which Gonsalves did not seem to appreciate
 In fact the customer told the waiter that there was a roach on the plate and he refused to pay for it. Long demanded the money and when Con salves started to leave the restaurant he rushed at him with club and struck him over the head.
 Rgiht then and there a real fight started Gonsalves reciprocated by smashing the Chinaman over the head with dish, and before the police ar rived on the scene, chairs were broken and tables overturned and the place put in disorder.
 Both men will probably be arrested after they recover from their wounds.

RELEASE LARGE
 PERCENTAGE OF NAVY PERSONNEL
Discharge of About 100000 Men Has Been
 Authorized.

Washington, Dec. 5-Discharge of 20 per cent. of the navy's wartime personnel about 100000 men, has been authorized. Secretary Daniels said the men would be released as quickly as possible with due regard to the convenience of the service.
 Private yachts, motor boats and ether craft taken over by the navy for the war, already are being turned back to their owners. Mir. Daniels said by February, 700 craft will have been stricken from the navy list.
 The release of enlisted men is au- thorized not because the navy is over-manned, but to permit the return to civil pursuits of youths who joined for the war and do not intend to fol- low the sea.
 Members of naval units in schools and colleges will complete their training and then stand discharged. In the case of special student bodies, such as the paymasters school at Princeton and the ensigns school at Annapolis. students In the present / classes upon graduation will be com missioned in the reserve.
