NEVER HAD TRUE LOVE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Being considered a pretty girl
by both sexes, still 7 am lonely.
I am popular in my neighborhood.
owing to my wonderful talent for
music and my extremely refined
disposition Yet I regret to say
that I do not have a man I can
call a real friend.
A Girl.
I wonder II the trouble might
not be that your life is a little
in-growing and -centered. Try
and forget about yourself and be-
come absorbed in some work out
side Of your present sphere OF living.
Understanding music. you ought TO
have no difficulty in allyiRg your
self TO some agreeable musical associ-
alton where there are ample oppor-
tunities for congeuial companionship.
Your letter suggests the life OF one
that has run too long IN the same
channel. Try for new friends. a new
point OF view. a new environm emit
for your vacation at least.

Dear Miss Fairfax.
am IS and have many friends.
There IS only one young man I
love. and he has been in the ssrv-
ice for some time. Shortly after
7 met him, he was called away for
duty in France. and ] promised
him I would 90 about with no
other young man in bis absence.
I received mail from him during
the war, and when he came back
got two letters saying he wanted
to see me. Before I answered he
had moved, and my letter was re-
turned. Do you think Il would be
wrong n I were 70 20 about with
other young men until ] hear
from him? There is no way I can
get his address Dotty.
It would seem that you have ful-
Tiled all the conditions Of your prom

HARD LINES
BY WALT MASON

The day is damp, the winds are bleak my heart is
sad, my hinges creak, rheumatic pains sharp;
alas find 1t pretty hard to be cheer-up sunshine
bard, and twang joyous harp. I'd like to sing in
waing tones of winding sheets and dead mems
bones, fain would chant drge; to tap a reservoir
of tears and sing in vain and aching years feel
mighty urge. But if wrote that kind of whine
day when am feeling fine, I'd the pome,
and then I'd cry, my aunt! My hat! Did produce
such sush that? What bugs in my dome?"
And would blush to beat the band; for healthy men
can't understand the drooling of the sick; and when
reads tearwet ode he feels like hopping up the
road with some fat rhyming hick. I'd hate to read
my deathless lines and find them full of maudlin
whnes and sobs and signs and means; and so, no
odds how tough feel I'll try to spring joyous spiel,
or break some collar bones The day is dark the
winds bleak, but therell be brighter days next
week. the world will smile again; the sun will push
the clouds away and put up forty kinds of hay, and
cheer the souls of men.

State Road Building.

7-HERE has been an inexplicable slow
ness on the part Of the states to avail
u themselves of government road
building aid. Federal appropriation al
ready available for use in cooperation
with state efforts amount TO nearly $780,
100000 and there will be $20O,000,C00 more
available during the next three years. The
government has given its approval to 7GO
bodybuilding projects i'll various parts of
the country, entailing an expenditure Of
$21 100000 of government money, and in
vovling 1910 miles of roads. And yet 45
miles of highway have been constructed
so far under the federal plan.
There ought to be scramble for this
$21 100000 and for whatever part of the
$2OOOO0,OO0 appropriation will become
available this year. Utmost of the states
good roads are needed more than any other
improvement 1t is desirable to build them
now, particularly, because their construc
ton will absorb labor at a critical time, and
because the paved highway completed
within the next few months would play a
big part in the expected business revival.
The states can get money to build roads
easily enough Prices are high; but they
may not come down; and anyway, to off
set the expense of materials and labor
there is the liberal contribution of the gov
eminent. Amy state not taking full advant
age of this opportunity is woefully short
sighted.

Unfair to Hawaii.

II II AWAIT is woefully misunderstood
In and previously wronged. A resident
u Il of those sunny islands breaks forth
in vehement protest against things now
associated with Hawaii in the public mind.
He Indignantly repudiates the notion that
Hawaii is "a sort of tropical Eden where
society and business are maintained by
bands Of grass-skirted hours armed with
ukuleles and where the only diversions are
hula dancing and poi-eating contests"
Hawaiian women, he insists do not
'dance jazz dances in abbreviated cos
tunes" Neither do they smoke in public.
Neither do they drink. Hawaii is dry.
Neither do they do any of the spectacularly
immodest things that Americans, taking
the name Of Hawaii i'll vain, do with such
fervor in our various centers of civiliza-
ton.
It is interesting to learn all this, and it
is only simple justice to give it wide publ
cation. 1t may be doubted, though, whe-
ther this sort of publicity will do Hawaii
any good, aside from cleaning her reputa
ton. If the Hawaiian Islands are really
SO respectable as this resident represents
them, we do not See any great press tour
list travel thither this year Judging from
present tendencies, the average American
vacationist will HE him with all the more
alacrity to the aforesaid centers of civili-
cation. He wants to jazz.

son known as Lent. Specifically a
u religious season, there is much about
the customs usual to it's observance which
people Of any creed or religion can follow
with benefit.
What Lent calls for from those who keep
it as sacred duty is a refreshing of the
mind and body by simple living and quiet
thinking.
Whether people be of a creed which be-
ieves in the observance of Lent or not. u
simphfied diet will be good for them. Any
system needs rest from the hearty foods
Of winter, and the replacing of meat diet

body good to turn from harassing and
perhaps bitter thoughts to quieter media
ton and to the company of good and rest
full literature. After winter with many
nights of late hours, and always period
OF nervous strain, early to bed will restore
rapidly the shattered nerves.
Take it all in all, though Lent as re-
igious fact may mean nothing, Lent as a
period of forty days devoted to setting
body and mind in order is well worth any
body's while.
