LOVelOrn
Two SUifOrS,
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX


Dear Miss Fairfax: I am con-
slant reader of your Love
lorn Column" and really it
seems as If you and I are great
friends although we have never met
Miss Fairfax, / have two serious
questions to lay before your eyes
and two questions which in my mind
are out of the ordinary, and which
I fear will take much space, but if
you can't print my letter, please
print the answer. Now for business.
The first question is: Two years ago
/ became acquainted with a young
farmer, 23 years of age now, and
our correspondence turned to what
is more supreme.
One year ago he entered the serv-
ice and now he is in France. | hear
from him often. / admire him i'm
mensely.
Well, that part is O. K, but here
is the other: My brother. who is
still in the service and who two
years ago became a great pal of a
wireless operator "a man, too) from
New York, while being stationed at
Manila, P. l., gave this said New
York chap permission to write to me,
after he had spied my photo in my
brothers rooms. For one year we
have correspondent and in that time
have become the best of friends.
He is a well-educated and re-
fined gentleman, while the other is
a toiling, poor, care-free and
motherless boy l admire them both
and don't care for one any more
than the other, but l expect them
both real soon and please, Beatrice,
what shall I do?
/ am trusting my confidence in
you, my dear adviser, so please don't
disappoint me.
Hoping to see my little missive In
print soon, as 7 am anxious as can
be and very restless, indeed.
Thanking you, Miss Fairfax, In
advance, a thousand times.
LITTLE DIMPLES."
Wait until you have seen them
both. The overseas trip may have
changed the first man. The sec
ond may be so different from his
letters that you wouldn't care for
him at all. Love and marriage are
too serious to be trfled with and
therefore I can only suggest that
you wait until you have seen them
both again. One will stand way
ahead of the other in personality.
S. d. and v. T.-Both-I don't
think that your friends would tell
you you were good looking If you
were not, but l also think that they
tell many others the same thing.
AS long as you believe that
there are others beside you
who have claim to Venus 1
don't see that you should object. Let
your mother judge about the car
riding. If you wish to dance with
some boy more than twice, see
no reason why you should not do
him. If this boy wants to take you
home from a dance, certainly he
should take you. You'll not be
sorry if you insist on this. I don't
see why one should not wear geor-
gette waists on the street. l like
them.
Worried Miss Twenty-You would
be doing yourself ard your re-
turned soldier man far great
err wrong in not marrying him
than in asking him to make his
home separate from his mother,
Surely it is one Of the rights of
everyone to have their home, and |
should not hesitate in asking this.
If you understand this before you
are married, it will save more than
one heartache.
Elizabeth and Virginia-Let the
boy write you first. 1t is his place.
If you wish to continue writing to
the boy. / do not see why at II, an
other friend should object. You will
be much happier by not giving up
all your friends for one in high
school.
