DEAR MISS FAIRFAx:

l am a young married girl OF
twenty-five; was married at seven
teen, and still think a great deal
OF my husband. He works at In
dian Head, Maryland. and only
comes home once q week. I met q
fellow thirty-two- years old about
a year ago OF whom I think a great
deal. / have been going out quite
often with him and he seems to
care for me. Do you think this
will make people talk. as l know
just how far TO 60 with a man and
il is so lonesome home for me. I
have no children. ] have girl
friends but don't care for them to
come because they bring their
young men with them and am
afraid people will talk more by my
being here alone. MRS. NJ r. r.
| certainly do think people will
talk about you if you go out with
another man while your husband is
away working hard to earn a liv-
ing for you. Whether people talk
or not, you are treating your hus-
band very unfairly and aren't do
ing any particular good to the
gentleman who plays around with
you during your husbands alb
sence. I have my opinion of these
men who invade other mems
homes, rights and privileges. I
suppose, too, you would consider
yourself terribly wronged were
your husband to find solace for
his loneliness with some other
woman. Play the game squarely.
Either live near your husband or
be loyal to him while he is away.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRt Az:
am a young man twenty years
old and have only recently begun
to socialize. Within this period I
have found a young lady whom !
love more than anyone else in the
world I have noticed that she in
variably> closes her eyes when '
embrace her.
Being unable to discover the rea-
son for this, l brought II to the
attention. OF my boy friends. Their
experiences proved that the act
was not peculiar to my girl. We
believe there must be some psy-
Geological or physical explanation
for such an occurrence.
Will you from your INFINITE
knowledge of women kindly eI-
plain this? JACQUES.
Because women are much more
imaginative than men, they close
their eyes to shut out the world
and to shut in their own dreams
and visions and ideals. That is the
real reason a woman shuts her
eyes when she is kissed. A cynic
might argue that she does so be-
cause there are mighty few men
q girl could kiss with her eyes
open. You remember Msne Bash
