Dear Mrs. Thompson: Cd Is it right
for a girl to fill a hope chest before
she gets married?
CD When L have an argument with
the young man to whom 1 am en-
gagged, 1 cry. Please tell me how to
act instead of crying? He tells me
after arguing that he is testing my
temper
(5) He is very jealous of me and
does not want me to talk to any
young men or to go out with girls.
Should l do as he says? I have al
ways done what he told me to. for 1
love him.
10 How many times is it right for
him to call on me a week?
MISS WORRY.
10 1t IS all right for girl to start
hope chest at any time, After she
becomes engaged she calls it her
dowry chest.
CD You must try not to argue. 1t
is unkind of the man to test your
temper. His love for you should
make him try to keep you happy in
stead of in teas. If he continues to
disturb your peace of mind, do not
marry him, because he will never
make you happy.
Aot LIZ "tIdI NOu lIiiilh - 10 H.
He is very selfish in asking you TO
give up your former friends. You
need the friendship of girls just as
much as you ever did, and you should
be trusted enough to carry on con-
Versations with boys and men,
(4) He should not call oftener than
every other night. I am not trying
to make you dissatisfied. 1 want you
to marry with open eyes so that you
will be happy afterward.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: % To settle

can Red Cross stamps be purchased

salute a non-commissioned officer the
same as a commissioned officer?
DOUBTFUL.
% At Christmas time the Red
Cross sells stamps which can be used
as seals. The cost is one cent apiece
All Red Cross headquarters and
