Little Talks by

BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

It's a wonderful thing to look into
the heart of a sensitive young girl.
And sometimes it is very helpful to
other girls to tell what one has
found there.

whose anxieties are similar to those
of a young correspondent of mine
whose letter 1 am going to quote.
And as many of these as possible L
should like to reach through my
reply to her.
Her perplexity comes from the
contrast that exists between dream
youths. the knights OF her imagina-
tion, and the actual boys and young
men whom she encounters in this
prosaic. everyday world.
'T am eighteen years old" she
writes, "and what L am telling you
is my great secret. 1 have never
told it to anybody else. You see, 1
cannot bear to have people laugh at
me and think me queer. The truth
is, l don't like boys in the least. /

the things they want to talk about.

Advices coming to L. D. Wilson
of the grain control committee are
to the effect that through southern
Nebraska the wheat harvest is about
finished, that in some localities
threshjng is under way and that
during the early days of next week
the grain will commence moving/to

As heretofore. it is expected that
Omaha will be the market for prac-
tically all the wheat raised in south
ern Nebraska, as we'll as the market
for a goodly portion of that grown
in northern Kansas.
Reports from localities where the
wheat harvest has been finished in
dictate that the yield is heavy. and
that the grade is fully up to that OF
former years. Tn fact, it is believed
that the most of the Nebraska
wheat of this years crop will grade

ing No. /, hard. So far no estimate

ed on being seated the ushers found
the changed numbers.

Allowed to Keep Her

George burlington, real estate
man, was called into Juvenile court
yesterday on complaint that his H.
year-old daughter, Marion, is being
neglected. =
Neighbors. and welfare board
workersjtestihed that the little girl
stays in the home, 1908 North Tween

sometimes is alone during the night
when her father goes out of the city.

the insane asylum last December
and his 19-year-old daughter lives in
a boarding house.
Mr.. burlington insisted that his
little daughter is able to take care
of herself and that she is not neg
lected.
1T is just the work of lot of
busybodies," he declared. Marion
has plenty of food and good clothing
and she spends most of her time at
the home of neighbor and playing
with the other children. She has
become accustomed to look out for
herself and does it very we'll. l am
home nearly every night after 6
o'clock.
II am afraid when I go in the
house at night and go to bed all
alone in the dark" whispered
Marion.
Judge Troup, on Mr.. Turkingtons
statement that he is soon going to
take Marion to visit relatives in
Michigan, allowed the child to stay
at home for the present.
