est respect for him and admire him
more than any other boy have ever
goen with. He is a good Christian
boy and fills three offices In his Sun
day school and church. He has no
bad habits. How can 1 tell whether
my love is the true lasting love or
not?
(2) He has 16 miles to come to see
me and either comes in the car or
interurban every Sunday that the
weather is fit and hardly misses a
week writing letter. We are both
high school graduates; he works on

he too young?
90 Would it be wrong to accept in
vitations from his. mother to Sunday
evening lunch SO we could attend his
church?
"a We are not engaged but many
of our friends think we are. Should I
encourage his attentions or not?
(5) For about three months he has
kissed me goodnight. Is it wrong or
not? DOUBTFUL SMILES.
% You cannot tell now, but time
will tell.
(2) You may be very fond of each
other, but too young to be in love.
or to think of marriage.
60 No, since his mother is the one
who invites you.l
"a 1t would not be proper to en-
courage his attentions, but since you
seem to get along together, it is all
right for you to keep company. 1t is
very unwise to give out the impress
sion that you are engaged when you
are not.
90 1t is wrong, since you are not
engaged.

NO UPPISHNESS ABOUT SIMS
American Admiral Acts as Guide to
Naval Wireless Operator
in London.

London-There's nothing uppish
about Admiral Sims. Anybody who
has Joined the navy for the purpose
of helping lick the child killers looks
good to Sims.
Bill Swinger, former telegraph OPP
orator, now a frst-class wireless OPP
orator, was plodding YEARLY about the
GrOsvenor Garden district trying to
find some one who could talk United
States and direct him to navy head
quarters, when a big man with a red
dish beard stopped him.
He talked United States and soon
found that Bill was hopelessly lost. 1t
isn't everybody who is directed about
London by an admiral, commander in
chief of Uncle Sans warning navy,
and Bin is rather pleased to have the
honor.
Sims got Swinger's naval history in
a few questions, then directed him to
his 'home port" which happened to
be % Grosvenor Gardens.
