difficulty of controlling human ac-

individual could "Force himself to
want to do that which he ought to

This fact has been demonstratsd

tent by Christian Scientists today"

/ have read with q great deal Of

reason why this event should not

Will be an epoch In all future affairs

II It were Denver or Cleveland. or,
indeed, any number Of similar places

them in the face that now eonfronts

will be wholesome to put your
own distress in the background for
a moment and give a passing con-
sideration to the other woman.
She may not have been a success
in married life; indeed, this man
to whom she is married may have
had many causes for complaint be-
fore he found his refuge and hap
piness in your society which SEEMS
to him so ideally adapted foG his
comfort and needs. But you must
not forget that when you entered
his affection you effectually. if
innocently, cut off any chance she
might have had Of making up her
mistakes or reforming her tenn
per, perhaps. Your very sweet
ness and appeal barred her from
ever winning back her husbands
love. You were not deliberately
wicked, but that was the injustice
you have done the other woman.

that your conscience is too sensi-
tive TO allow you to reap happi-
ness from the blasting Of another
woman's hope, even a futile hope.
And as for your present suffering

selves n a temporary seclusion,
the aw<ul sense of guilt and the
knowledge that you are outcasts
from the rest of the world is cal
culated to destroy completely any

this secret companionship. My

By T. E. Powers.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
1 am young girl from a small
Southern town, and unused to the
ways Of the city. and 1 am very I'M
happy here. have met some few
men. but somehow 1 can't seem TO
make them like me. They seend
attracted to me at first, but when
they say things that 1 think they
should not say in my presence and
1 reproach them, they look at me
pityingly, and that is the last I see
OF them. 1 was taught in my home
to respect other people and in that
way respect myself. Shall I allow
these remarks to be made in my
presence without resenting them,
or shall I remain true to my ideals,
even IL IL means the loss of my So
called friends? DOUBTFULLY.
There is unfortunately among
young people today a tendency to
mistake the display of a sort of
daredevil carelessness in CONVEX
sation for the attractiveness of
mere frankness. But the girl who
tolerates this spirit Of saying fool
ishiy improper things for the sake
Of smartness, and joins in it her
self is generally one who has few
other qualities to hold attention.
You need not be afraid but that
quiet speech and gentle manners
are still basis for friendship and
admiration with young men, when
these characteristics are backed
by an interesting personality. This
habit OF too easy expression had
its start, however, in a reaction
against the artificial and stiff ex-
change of comment in the casual
social intercourse of the "young
ladies' and gentlemen" of some
years ago, and l believe that un-
der this newer freedom young men
can be guided to a standard of be-
ing frank and natural without be-
ing embarrassing and with that
splendid element of comradeship
added. 1 think you may have been
a little at fault in making your re-
proof so outspokenly apparent.
No young man likes to feel that
his companions attitude is that of
a public regulator. with her prim
energies all directed for the mo-
ment at his luckless head. I am
sure. though. that happiness and
popularity will find you as the
general inconsistencies for the
Southern home disappears AMI
you sink roots OF real friendships
in the soil Of informal Northern
comradeship with the young peo-
pie here
The Washington times., 1918-12-27

In the, arrangements for such an
affair sufficient time should be had
to give one day to the army, one
day to the navy and marines. and at
least as much time distributed
among the various industrfals asso-
eiated with the war outside Of Wash
ington, and then q day for those IN
the last line Of trenches. being the
war workers in the departments at
Washington.
Spch q plan would provide for
practically q week Of festivities and
an eternity of history, particularly
50 as America has set the standard
for unselfshness by right Of location
had its heart in the District Of Co
luubia, and the President being the
instrument through which this pol
icy was established upon q world
basis, II should, IN my opinion, be
around him that this affair should
revolve.

you have indeed boosted. and with
the support Of that old War Horse,

come to successful conclusion

his bright phrases. But take this
