Mir Holmes was a native of Glas- tonbury and came to Manchester when a young man. Here he learned the carpenter trade. After time he moved from Manchester to New Britain where he made his home for a period of about 25 years. He con- tinued in the contracting and build ing business in the Hardware City up to almost seven years ago when he returned to Manchester to live. He built several houses in the Pine hurst tract and sold them and had just completed the house in which he died last spring. Although advanced in years, he was up to the last few months, able to do some work and felt it his duty to keep building as long as he lived.

She seems TO Have ChanEeds
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
l am a young man of eighteen
and / have been going with a girl
of my own age for the past three
years, with the exception of thir-
teen months / spent in the army
We have always gotten along fine
and seemed to be very much in
love with each other. In the past
two months, however. she seems to
act strangely toward me. Up to
this time she would always ask me
when l was coming over to see her
and was always glad and ready to
go out with me whenever / invited
her to go. Lately, however, she
does not care to go out very much
and seems indifferent as to how
soon l am coming to see her again.
Now, Miss Fairfax, l am deeply in
love with this girl and would ap-
preciate any advice as to our case.
/ have always treated her the best
/ know and / cannot account for
her strange and sudden attitude
toward me. A READER.
1t always seems a waste of time
and emotion in a case like this, to
beat about the bush, when one
might come directly to the point
and ask the question What is the
matter?" AS you and this girl
have been friends practically since
you were children, you are GER
tainly entitled to know the cause
of the sudden change in her de-
meanor. Ask her this as tactfully
as you know how. Then, my dear
boy, | am afraid you will have to
abide by her decision.

why Did She Do ThIsS
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Eight years ago Gin July. 1sII),
at small watering place met a girl
about six years my senior. At that
time l was sixteen. This girl i'm
pressed me very much. and in a
short time l learned to care for
her.
Unlike the majority Of summer
romances this one did not terminate
upon our parting for our homes in
different cities. For eight years
we have correspondent, seeing one
another now and then during that
time.
Two weeks ago I had occasion to
be in her city. l called her up
about $3.50 in the afternoon at her
place of business. Her employer
told me she had just left. and If
would call in the morning she
would probably be there. then
went to my hotel and about
called her up at her home. Imagine
my surprise when the ladys moth
er informed me that her daughter
had been in bed all day sick.
said nothing further than that J
would call up again. The follow
ing day I returned home without
calling up.
Now, about a week before going
to her city 1 wrote her a letter in
answer to one from her She has
not yet answered II, so yesterday 1
wrote her again, coaxing her to
write.
We never have been engaged. but
are fond OF one another. have
tried to think the matter out, but
can only say that she must have had
an engagement about which she did
not want me to know Another
thing which has worried me-has
she found out that ! called up at
her work? If she has, she cannot
help but know that l have caught
her in a NIB. Would you write her
a long letter telling her il was all
right and that she need not feel en-
barrassed owing to our long friend
ship? She has heretofore appeared
to be a girl worthy OF this sort Of
forgiveness. Do you think she
would disappoint me again, thinking
that 1t would again be all right?
Understand that I had no engage
ment with her. but just wanted to
ask her II might call. as I happen
ed to be in town.
A READER.
The simplest course in such a
case, it would seem, would be to
ask the young lady to explain.
There might be some simple solu-
ton Of this case and again she
NAV have acted the way you de-
scribe because in the meantime she
has become seriously interested in
some one else. In any case you
are entitled TO an explanation and
/ should ask for one courteously
without preferring any charges.
In Showdown" it is better to let
the party of the second part show
his or her hand ARst
