Tragic.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: /
am a boy q years old, Just dis
charged from the navy, and I feel
that l need some of your good ad-
vice. When I enlisted at the early
part of the war / left a, girl, two
years my Junior, whom. l dearly
loved, in my home town. I have
been stationed at various camps in
the states and consequently have
met a large variety of girls, more
fashionable, better educated and
more entertaining than the girl
left behind me. Miss Fairfax, these
quick acquaintances haven't meant
much to me, but they have changed
my opinion of the girl at home. l
know she has been true blue and
cares for me- great deal. How
can / keep her. from taking poison,
which I know she will do when [
tell her how my feelings toward her
have changed? If this does happen,
the blame will naturally fall on me.
How can / live down the disgrace?
NOW, please, Miss Fairfax, this is
getting worse every day. / need
the answer right away. A COB.
That is the dangerous element,
always to be reckoned with, in long
engagements. Can you not talk
quite. plainly to her-even say that
you have concluded that you would
not be the right man for her or she
the right woman for you. Tell her
that there are better men in the
world whom she will be far happier
with and that your marriage would
mean ruin for you both.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Rec.
You certainly have my most heart
telt sympathy for all the questions
you have to answer. They aren't lust
ditf1eult; they're absolutely impossi-
ole. But you answer them. You
can accomplish the impossible
Here's to q genius; here's to you!
MY question may be just -as silly
70 you as some others are to me. but
L am sincere in wanting the opinion
of some of the readers. I'm NOT
overly popular with the boys. al
| though I am fortunate enough TO
have several friends who take me to
shows, concerts and parties oeca-
sionally-and best of all a soldier
man in France who is really
sweetheart" So you see "lovelorn"
isn't exactly the word in my case.
Wen, here is my quandary. Years
ago had a boy friend who married
another girl. We weren't sweet
hearts, but just the kind of friends
that stuck through thick and thin.
Our families had been friends for
two generations, and it was UNDER
stood that ''the name of friendship is
sacred; what you demand in that
name l have not the power to deny
you. NOW lie mas asked me TO help
him. His wife Ga lovely girl whom
I loved) has died, leaving tiny little
baby, and he has written for me to
come and take care of it. I have
been doing work that pays $45 to $50
month, and the wages he could
pay wouldn't be nearly that much.
But since I don't have to get any
certain salary feel as If I ought to
help him, for he has always seemed
like a younger brother to me. DO
you think there would be criticism
of me going into his home in such a
case? I am confident that the baby's
mother would feel satisfied with her
little one in my care, and / know if
my mother were living she would
want me to do my bit" .
I would be glad to have both men
and women express themselves in
this matter
Don't think am some green
Your letter is incomplete. Evil
IDENTIFY you enclosed only part of it.
I can see where it would be splendid

MAlAMUIE KID
ARRIVED TODAY
With The MAIL

Shortly after o'clock this morn
ing the Malamute Kid arrived in
town with the mail and some ex-
press, after a particularly hard and
. trying trip from the upper town.
The Kid" left Fairbanks last
Friday morning and when within
about a mile of Cinema happened to
get off the trail and break through
the ice, fortunately at a shallow
place He had two passengers on
board for Nenana and they, to-
gether with the mail and express,
got thoroughly soaked. As the ice
did not look good to the passengers.
they decided TO quit the dog stage.
which they did at Cinema.
The kid" continued his journey
on the river ice, striking the first
open water at the l2-mile bar The
river was open from bank TO bank
there and he had to make a detour
of about five miles TO get across
From this point he followed the ice
on the river for a distance of about
five miles. when he again encounter
ed open water and had to take to
the land, following the old mail
trail down TO Dietz's. about five
miles above "Eat-em-up" Franks
place The mail trail, of course
was innocent Of any snow and the
going, in consequence, was of thu
hardest kind imaginable With three
sacks of sodden mail and several
packages of express. also wet, the
sled pulled hard over the bare
ground. sometimes Strewn with
stumpS and other impediments and
progress was necessarily slow.
! After a short stay at Dietz' and
travelling partly on Ice and partly
on land, "Eat-em-up" Franks place
was reached, where the night was
spent
Leaving Franks next day. the
journey to Nenana was begun on
the ice, and by taking advantage
of every shallow slough and with
the aid of a birch bark canoe to
negotiate the open water encount-
cred, the journey was successfully
accomplished. The journey from
Fairbanks to Nenana consumed a
trifle over eight days, which consid-
ering the difficulties encountered
may be considered pretty good.

Women since the world began
Have fumed and fused to please mere man.
For him they've cooked good things to eat
In all these summers whitening heat.
When Sunday comes they should have rest;
But that's the day they do their best.
They cook the biggest hardest meals
So home and comfort man may feel.
But why should all this work be done
On Sunday? Let women have some fun
Eat a chicken dinner at the Creamerie Cafe
Or in the Cafeteria on the same day.
