DEAR MISS FAIRFAX.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am q girl Of twenty. passable
looking. In fact, some people think
pretty. A year ago started to
keep company with = young man OF
different nationality. We love each
other dearly and after he returns
from France we expect to get mar
ried, but hero the difficulty lies.
Mother wishes to return to her old
home in Europe. ia be = sad
stranger here IL they went without
me. so without being sentimental
my heart Is torn in two. know
that the chief objection mother has
to Tom is his nationality. which IL
French, but think that has nothing
to do with love as long as we COM
monty agree that we are Americans.
MARIE.
Thousands Of women have felt
these opposing tugs at the heart,
Marie. And it's a matter in which
no outsider can be of any real help.
Do you care enough for your
French lover to leave your own
people and marry him? If you
love him enough, perhaps the
question will answer itself. If you
don't, marriage Is q risky thing,
whether with a Frenchman or an
Eskimo.

NY DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

NY DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
have been going with a young
man OF tWenty-one for two years
secretly, I being eighteen. One day
my mother, who is q widow, hap
pened to see US and diSapproved.
We did not heed her. he telling
me that before being dsmobilized
he would write his parents to ex-
plain. But this did not happen.
Before he went into the service he
asked me to wait for him. as he
loved no one else but me.
Now he has, without telling his
parents about me. come to my
home, which has caused me
much trouble, Ny mother has told
me to write for your advice. as she
does not think it proper for me to
give him an answer. F. r.
Surely your mother is entirely
right. There is no excuse for
secret love affairs, and they are
sure to result in unhappiness. /
am afraid you have had more lib
erty than is wise for a girl Of your
age. Since this young man plainly
prefers secrecy to openness, and
for no reason, the only thing for
you to do is to wait until he has
acknowledged his engagement to
his parents.
