me. DISCOURAGED.
You may think of Jack simply
because no one else has come into
your life. After all, love is mat

up to now he comes first in your
life. Only the future will de-

other man may not appear for
whom you can care more. 1t is

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

Your question surprises me. If

not see any possible harm in such

Since ] came here my girl friend

In answering his next letter i
"kidded him along" not meaning

letter from him proposing marriage.
He is very wealthy man. 1 re-
spect him, but do not love him. and
tn writing to him I merely wanted
to see IL 1 could make him pro-

as possible as he is thinking Of

to take me home with him. l am

The answer to your question is
in the lives of women all around
you. Do you ever study faces in
the street cars, in the theaters, and
everywhere where people congre-
gate? Are the happiest faces the
ones that peer over sable and
ermine? Are the gayest voices
those that give orders to waiting
chaufeurs and deferential maids?
/ can tell by your letter that you
know the answer to your own
question as well as / do. There's
only one reason for marriage and
that is love, and any woman who
sells herself, even under the sane
ton of a marriage certificate,
pays in heartache, disappointment
and hopeless remorse. Not all the
riches Of the Indies can make a
man worth while if woman can
not give her heart and soul as well
as her body to him. Let this be
a lesson to you to quit playing at
love. Give this man the same
fair and square treatment you
would like from a man in whom
you yourself were interested. The
"false alarm" type Of person isn't
worth very much to themselves or
to others,

Your attitude toward the young
men OF your acquaintance merely
proves that you are not susceptible
as most girls are. Instead of
complaining you should rejoice in
that you are saving yourself a
great deal of emotional wear and
tear and nerve strain. which most
girls go through over little love
affairs that ultimately come to
nothing. When you do fall in
love- you will probably fall
hard and it will be all the more
worth while because you haven't
expended your sweetness until the
right time. Here's hoping the man
will be equally smitten when you
DO have your really, truly" love
affair.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAN:
L had been going with a young
man for about four or FIVE months
up until l went away for two weeks
this summer to Atlantic City. After
my return we continued to 60 to-
gether, but we invariably have
arguments which 1 know are un-
reasonable, but l continue to argue
with him. / know it is all my fault
but cannot break myself of this
habit / am sure this young man
cares for me. and 1 also care lot
Tor him. The last i saw him we
ieft with just saying good-by. VIII
you please advise me whether to
write to him and tell him that l
am sorry as I know that it is my
fault? / get no sympathy at home
aho l am awaiting your advice.
PERPLEXED Blonde.
1t seems to be a trait Of most
women to bedevil the men they
know by petty quarrels and futile
squabbles. Most women seem to
think it's all in the game Of love.
Actually, however, it is mighty
poor sport and altogether dis
astrous business. IL we don't
utter the hasty word, we don't
have it to regret and apologize for.
Tell this young man you realize
you've been exercising mean
disposition and when you start off
together again, don't tease him or
fuss him, just see how much
you can enjoy yourself with him.
J'he choice is yours either TO curb
your tongue or to lose him en-
tirely.

CLAIMS DRIVERS
HAVE NO LIGHTS
Truck and Delivery Chauffeurs
Charged With Negligence
on the Streets.

That old expression. where was Mo
ses when the light went OUT" has been
paraphrased a bit to apply to the auto
mobile drivers Of Great Falls who infest
the streets in the evening without their
lights turned on. But it has been changed
enough to modernlze it and has been an
sWercd by some who have seen the afore-
mentioned drivers with their lights
turned off The new query is. "Where
has the driver turned his lights off,
and the answer IS, "He wants to run like
hell and is afraid some one will get his
number
The expression may be somewhat more
forcefui than elegant, but expressiveness
is a strong point. and for that reason
poetic license in the use of the term OF
four letters describing the way the driver
was running j. within the rule.
Last evening one truck. which was Of
the type of car that is known from De-
troit to the pearly gates, was proceeding
along First avenue north near the post
office. 1t is said to have been going like
bat out of hades and the pedestrians
crossing the street heard a rushing wind,
but saw no lights. The truck may have
been going so fast the lights could not
be seen, but it is averred that had there
been lights they certainly would have
been seen. as it was so dark the street
lights were on and every lawabiding au-
tomobile driver along the avenue had a
light turned on. One autoist who had
his car, trailed The fellow for distance.
until he was outrun, and then he dropped
back and swore few swears because
thereswas no one along there to arrest
the fellow running without the lights.
Later the same autoist who trailed
the truck for block said that he saw
truck drivers on the avenues that are
paved clustering the pavement every
night, and not light to be seen, .eitber
front or rear He said that he had OBJ
served most of them are drivers of de-
livery cars and not few Of them are
grocers' cars. and while he could not
state positively, he thought there was
one firm that had drivers flagrantly
neglectful about lighting their trucks.
Probably il the numbers Of the trucks
were taken and the arrest Of the drivers
was brought about, it might stop them.
