The Responsibility.

Rock Island has been sinned against more than
1t has snned thus far connection with the paroled
prisoner question And still it is patent that if there
were no local Influences in sympathy with their pres
ence these men would not be here in such large
numbers
From the standpoint of the prisoners themselves
the parole experiment without doubt is success
It hgs given many of them an earnestly desired
chance to make good and has put large number in
the way Of again becoming decent, law-abiding and
self-supporting citizens.
While war production demanded and even
for time afterward it fair question whether
the community did benefit more than it suffered
from abuses of privileges by minority of the new
corners. They are good workers class and the
places they took construction enterprises and in
filled in no other way.
Recent events, especially the Staying of Sheriff
Weers in which they may or may not have taken
part has altered the situation Public feeling has
been aroused and there is no ignoring the fact
that grave situation has been created Rock Island
has seen the mob work. 1t wants no further dem
onstratlon OF that kind.
This city cannot be justly accused of being
row headstrong intolerant in dealing with the
paroled men or with those responsible for keeping
such large numbers of them here We hope there
never may be grounds for such charge. However.
we believe it is not going far to point out that
employers OF these men who using their efforts
to keep them here share with the state parole
authorities responsibility for the situation that
exists and for whatever may grow out of it

| Your parents want to avoid this in
your case.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am a
young man of 20 and although con-
sidercd good looking have had no
girl friends since l came to town.
l know several by sight, but do not
know a mutual friend, and since
i they do not attend the same church
or other social gatherings that I do
/ | am at loss TO know how to be-
come acquainted with them. Will
sou not please suggest way to do
SO, as ! am very lonesome?
LONESOME YOUNG MAN.
There is no way Tor you to be
come acquainted with the girls
whose appearance you like except
through mutual acquaintance. Aft
er you have been here longer you
will know more people, naturally,
and without a doubt you will run
across a mutual acquaintance. Con-
tent yourself with that which you
have at present.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am sew
anteen years old and am a junior
in high school
% Would it be proper for me to
in rite my music teacher, who is
twenty years old, to the junior
senior reception? He has never
asked me for my company,
but has shown me marked atten-
ton III my music
(2) Would he be supposed to &C
company me to the reception?
90 Would a plum-colored wool
dress with a collar of white. satin
and white shoes be appropriate to
wear to the reception?
THANK YOU.
ID If other boys have invited you
to go places, 1 think you should
show one of them preference over
your music teacher. If you have
never gone with boys 1 think it
would be all right to invite your
music teacher.
90 II you invite him he would
probably understand that he should
take you. He will ask particulars
and you can make them clear when
he questions you.
CD l should imagine that your
dress would be all right. Consult
other girls and find out what they
expect to wear.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: L am a
young man twenty years old.
"a Would it be proper for me to
ask to call on a girl at her home
without an invitation from the girl?
10 When you try to make date
with a girl a week ahead of time
and she does not make a promise
that she will go, but when you call
up a day or so ahead of time and
she will go, is it that she does not
care for you? Or is it that she is
afraid something will happen so
that she cannot go? She has a boy
friend in France with whom she
has gone for several years. Does
she care for me or does she go
with me so that she can have some
one to take her out? Some say
that she is engaged to him, but, she
does not wear ring.
INTERESTED READER
ID Yes, a boy has the privilege
of asking to call.
ia / believe that the girl is go
ing with you merely to have some
thing to do while the other boy is in
france. When girl Is eager to
be with a man she does not hesi-
tate to accept an Invitation to go
somewhere. If something else
comes up later she is willing to let
it pass becauEs she is satisfied with
the sirst engagement
III were you would find an
other gin't an go with her, too.

| Dear MIS- thompson: L am very
much in love with a man eight
| years my senior. 1 am "a years
old. My family has always consid-
cred me tickle because l would go
with one boy after another, liking
each one in his turn but firing Of
him after a few weeks acquaint-
ance.
1 have gone with this one man
for eight months and in that time
we have been together great deal.
We live in the same neighborhoOd
and walk to and from work togeth-
er, although We do not work at the
same place. We have also been to-
gether from three to four evenings
a week. | love this man because
We enjoy so many things together.
Many things have come up to test
his character and he has always
stood the test.
Christmas eve he proposed to me
and accepted him. The next day
when he told my father, father and
mother disapproved of our marriage
so. much that he promised to wait a
year before even becoming engaged.
He told me that we would be just
as close friends as ever, but he
would let me have freedom to go
with anyone 1 pleased during that
time Then if I still loved him he
would marry me at the end of that
time
. 1t seems TO me he can't love me
very much or he would not be so
to 1FTn T1nn n ii
you think of the case?
TROUBLED.
The plan is good since up to this
time you have proved tickle. Con-
geniality is the big test of love and
SO probably you will care just as
much or more at the end of the
year. Marriage is such a serious
matter that your parents and your
iance all want you to be sure of
yourself before you are tied by an
engagement.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am IA
Years of age and haven't any moth
er. l like the boys awfully well
and would like to go with them all,
and when 1 go with one the others
/ get angry. What shall l do as l
! haven't anyone to advise me?
FOURTEEN.
You are too young to go with
boys, my dear. Wait until you are
10 at least before you go places
with boys or entertain them For
two Or three more years you need
| sleep, study and association with
| girls. In order to be interesting
and popular when you are older
you should court popularity at an
age when you are too young TO
know how to keep it.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am IA
year OF age 1 have been going
with girl who is very queer. At
one time she viii kiss me and an
other time she will act as if she
/ were angry at me.

world, clearly showing that THE time
for self-determination of oil races and

IRISH CAN AGREE.
He dwelt upon some of the obJec-
tons that were raised from some Eng
fish sources particularly that the Irish
could not agree among themselves and
secondly that it was a purely relig
ious question He showed clearly that
ever so per cent of the people have

How much more of a showing would
those critics have us make" he said.
Il daresay if 101 per cent Of the Irish
people voted unanimously they would
then discover other reasons.

more OF the critics raise the point that
90 many of the Irish going to foreign
shores from 1850 to 1880 were unedu-
Gated. Mr.. McCue admitted the truth
