No. If you girls took your posi-
tions with the understanding that
you were to work at night, there
is nothing you can do.
suspicIo1s.
Dear Miss Lee: i am engaged TO be married.
but one thing troubles me. My hancee was In
love with another man . few years ago. She
says she no longer cares for him and that she
loves me- But ] never was in love until
met this nrl and know ! never could love any
one elsa, ] doubt II she really has forEotten her
love for this man, and II she cares for me as
she did for him DO you think ] would be
happy II ] married HEIR.
You should not question the sincerity
OF your fiancee's affection for you.
Doubtless she has lost all interest in
this other man and may care for you
much more than she cared for him.
II you are willing to put aside your
doubts, this former love affair should
offer no obstacle to your happiness
II you marry this girl.
UnderstandinG.
Dear Miss Lee: have been going with a man
steadily for two years. He has called to see me
several times a week and has given me q num-
her Of valuable presents but he has never asked
me to marry him. The situation is growing en-
harrassing for me. as my friends think ! am en-
goSed TO the man and expect US TO marry soon
] care for the man very much. but feel that
things should not go this way without some
understanding. Would il be night for me to ash
the man what his intentions ,re!-L
No. To ask the man his inten-
tions would be equivalent to asking
him to marry you. It was not right
for him to monopolize your time for
two years IL he had no intention of
asking you to marry him, but you
are equally to blame for permitting
him to do this. Do now what you
should have been doing all this time
Interest = yourself in your other
friends and do not permit this man
to monopolize your evenings. 1t may
be difficult for you to do this at first.
as your friends think you are
engaged: but gradually. and at first
through your women trends. you
should be able to regain your for
mer footing in your circle Of friends.
You should not have accepted ex-
pensive gifts from a man to whom
you are not engaged. and should re-
turn to this man the presents he
has given you. II he has any wish
to marry you, such a change on your
part may move him to declare his
intentions.
Sympathy.
Dear Miss Lee: ! am . girl. 10 One Of the
incr IN the otfics wherc work has q wife who
Is indiierept to him and does not APPRECIATE his
kindness and generosity. He has conhdcd this
to me. and because he seemed lonely and felt
sorry for him, have accepted several invitations
from him He now seems to take II for granted
that viii continue doing this I fear to hurt
bis feelings BY refusing. but know that II this
goes on I will learn to care too much for him.
What shall I dof-ANXlOUS.
You needn't be so considerate OF
this mans feelings. OnlySan unprin-
cipled man would try to prevail upon
a young girl to accept his attentions
by arousing her sympathy in this way.
In all probability this mans criticisms
OF his wife are untrue. In any case.
you should not accept invitations from
him or from any married man. Un-
less you have enough strength OF
mind to put your relations with this
man on a strictly business basis. con-
cerned only with the affairs of the Of
fec, you should secure another po-
sition.

1t Is not necessary. IL the son is
NAMED as the beneficiary Of the in
surance.
