want to ask is this: He sent me a

old. Don't you think he should be
able to decide for himself at that
age and not hang on to his mother?
The trouble is. they don't want him
to get married, not that they would

Would you wait in silence or try
to forget? LONESOME.
The choice between mother and

tainly it is asking a great deal to
expect you to wait longer for him,
especially as it might happen that
by the time death or some other
circumstance had set him free, he
would find you old and unattrac-
tive. Self-preservation is said to
be the first law of nature and
surely you have a right to look
out for your own interests in this
matter. If the two families are
- -irreconcilable, he ought to make
his choice-whether he wants to
give you up entirely or whether
he is willing to face his family's
displeasure by marrying you. II
you were to be married and both
families found that opposition
would no longer do any good, it
might easily happen that they
would make the best Of an accom-
plished fact. Why don't you sug-
gest that plan to him? They
might not forgive in six months,
but by the end of the wear, they
might find their attitudes quite

No Kisses Before
The Wedding Bells.
DEAN MISS FAlRFL


have been going with a girl
for almost three years and we are
going to be married soon. Can you
explain to me why she doesn't want
me to kiss her? l don't seem to
have much trouble with other girls,
though everybody knows I'm not
good looking. ] don't know what
you may think of this admission.
but ! have offered to give up going
with other girls altogether. which
she says Is not necessary. 1 in
regard to other girls after we are
married: at least, as a rule.
OBSERVANT.
You don't seem to have engaged
yourself to the girls you found easy
to kiss and perhaps the fact this
particular girl is harder to kiss
than the others is one of the rea-
sons you selected her for a wife.
None of the things we really want
in life come easy. If they do, we
seldom want them for long. This
young woman seems to have
learned what l wish many other
girls who read my columns would
find out-that kisses arc really
sacred things and ought not to be
given lightly. She is probably
wise enough to save them until
after marriage.

Afraid She Will Lose Fiance
By Keeping Him Waiting.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:


have read your most interesting
letters and would like to get your
advice on a certain problem that I
have been trying to solve for some
time.
Two years ago I was introduced
to very nice young man: We be-
came very much attached to one
another. About six months after
our meeting he brought me a beau
tiful diamond ring, he claimed then
as present. and / accepted 1t. In
October we became engaged and
are to be married in the early part
OF the spring. At first I set the
date in 1921. but changed 1t to the
early part of 1920. He is always
asking me to get married, and when
j tell him i cannot do so until the
time ! set, he tells me that / do not
care for him, and that he is going
to go away IL do not marry right
away. / love this man dearly and
would never forgive myself IL he
should ever really go. What would
you do If you were in my place.
PUZZLED.
If you really want to be sure Of
him, the best thing to do is to set
a marriage date early enough to
satisfy him. A bird in the pie, you
know, is worth two on the bush.
AS you don't say why you cannot
be married right away, it makes
it difficult to advise you fully.
Why not make a concession to his
cage ness, and say you will marry
a month or two earlier than he
expects. Surely that will satisfy
this impatient young man.
