Annie suddenly felt as if she were
standing on sand that waves were
washing out from under her feet. She
was coming down, down, down, and
could not stop herself. Down into
drabness and loneliness again. Moth

her.

And in a flash she had run up the

Young Carol stood a moment where

indignant boy. Then he damned his

at last. That's the solution. If they

everything that mother had-in order
to have a little independence and an
orderly, quiet life of her own, and
escape the wretched poverty and the
struggle my mother had.
I'm not going to ask her now to

HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS


Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a young
man of twenty years and am in love
with a beautiful girl. She says she
loves me, but somehow she does not
seem to care if she hurts my feel
times.
She is eighteen years old. Is she
too young to be engaged? She has
promised to be my wife in a few
months. She is a good little girl and
very attractive. l am afraid that If
we do not get married she will go
. with some one else, and that would
break my heart.
Do you think she Is too young to
get married? I have a good position
and am making good money. Please
tell me what to do. Jake.
Yes. the girl Is too young to be en-
gagged or to marry, and so are you.
Both Of you should have more oppor-
tunity to see life before you settle
down to the obligations of an en-
gagement or the responsibilities of
marriage.
It is said that the tastes of young
people in their teens are very unre-
liable. Young people are earnest and
think they know what they want, but
in later years they smile upon the
loves and ideas which they had in
their teens.
If the girl loves you, she will wait
for you. 1t would be foolish to hold
her by an immediate marriage. You
may be sure that her love you'd die
is she were married. Then you and
she would have to separate or go
through life in loveless marriage.
If she hurts your feelings now,

DRY ANYWAY, SAY
LEAGUE FIGURES

WESTERVILLE, O., July 16-Just
how much Of the United States was az
fected by war prohibition and how
much will be affected by constitution.
al prohibition?
The average man, it seems, thinks
of prohibition Is something that has
suddenly enveloped an entire nation.
But statement of the Antt-Saloon
League points out that before war
prohibition went into effect there was
| only little portion OF the United
| States wet.
For instance thirty-three states and
the District Of Columbia were dry.
either by popular vote or legislation.
They were dry as to light wines and
beers, just the same as to spirituous
liquors. War prohibition did not az
| feet them at all, neither will consti-
tutional prohibition affect their status
1t was Illegal to ship liquor into them
from wet states.
All Dry In Spots
Those thirty-three states represent
the largest area in the United States.
or the fifteen wet states only two or
three are of any size, as, for instance,
New York, Pennsylvania, Minnesota,
California and Louisiana. The re-
naming wet sta ties, such as Delaware,
y
are among the smaller of the states
in the area.
But even the fifteen states are not
wholly wet. In fact, there is not a
state in the Union that has not dry
spots in 1t. For example, almost half
of New York state was dry. In more
than half Of California the sale of all
liquors was illegal. In Kentucky 107
of 100 counties were dry. More thar
half of Louisiana was dry. There have
been very few saloons in Vermont, and
Wilmington was the only wet spot ir
Delaware.
So. according to the drys, there was
mighty little of the country that was
not under prohibition. anyhow, anC
about 80 per cent Of the people lived
in arid territory.
Minnesota, it is pointed out. would
have been wholly dry except for the
state law which requires the drys tt
get majority Of all votes cast at any
election. When Minnesota voted or
, the wet and dry issue prohibition hac
a larger vote than the vets polled, but
not a majority of all votes, by abou
500, cast in the election for governor
That means that many voters ignored
the wet and dry issue entirely.
Backbone Of Traffic Gone.
Even If war prohibition lasts only a
few months and not until constitu
} tional prohibition comes in, the drys
do not anticipate any great gain tc
the vets. They point out that only q
very few saloons and other liquor es
tablishmets would find it profitable tc
open up for such short time. If, fol
instance, war prohibition should end
October l, there would be but three
months in which to sell liquor, and
the drys say most of the men engaged
in the traffic, knowing that constitu
tional prohibition is to come January
16, will look about for permanent en-
gagements rather than resume liquor
selling for a short period.
The backbone of the liquor traffic is
gone, they say, even if there is hia
tus between war prohibition and the
constitutional variety.
At the office of the Anti-Saloor
League it was said that the league will
engage actively in law enforcement
campaign and in preparations for The
world dry fight

there Is great possibility that she
will continue to do so after marriage.
1t may be, however, that you are too
sensitive and are hurt when you real
ly should not be.
Don't get married now. Give
yourself and the girl at least two
more years in which to test your
love.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am th1r-
teen years old There is a boy my
age who Is very popular among the
girls. l am the only girl that has
known him over a year. / have
known him all my life. We both
came from the same city to the same
city.
He doesn't like me as well as he
does other girls, although I have
known him so long.
1) How can l get him to like me
as well a she does other girls?
(2) Should l go to visit at his
home?
(1) The harder you try to make
the boy like you, the less he will
Seek, love and it will fee from
thee; fee love and 1t will follow
thee" A little girl of your age
should enjoy girls and not give
thought to boys. Work hard at
school, and play with your girl
friends when there is no school, sc
that your mind will be occupied. and
you will not have time to worry about
boy.
(2) Go to his home If his mother
invites you, but not to see him.

Informed that they can swap them off
for securities sure to pay very large in

enticing great many people.
Those who are not familiar with in

There is an organized effort of
dishonest promoters to issue securities
Of either worthless or very doubtful
value, and exchange them for Liberty
bonds.
"A great many visionary and un-
practical people, who may be honest
but have never made a success of any
thing yet, will try to get hold of some
of this money, to put into their wildcat
speculations.
A vast amount Of this Liberty bond
money is going to be lost in these
schemes and projects. This will be a
damage to the country, because every
dollar Of existing capital is needed for
the development Of legitimate enter

OF course it is not true that all new
enterprises are either fraudulent or
dangerous. A great many Of them are

No matter how neatly town may be
kept, it will always have a bare and
hard look unless it is we'll planted with
trees and shrubbery. Every street
should be lined with shade trees. A
new street should have it's young sap

Few people realize how much they
could add to their home places by a
small expenditure for trees and shrub
berry. 1t changes house, into home,

remain a cherished memory even
though future years take you far away
A house well surrounded by natural
beauty will always sell and rent for

When you set out trees and shrubs,

First Horses in the United
States in 1929 When Oxen Did
Great Service on the Farms

The first horses imported into the.
United States were brought to New,
England in 1929. One horse, and.
seven mares survived the voyage.
Horses were not highly esteemed:
nor much needed in America at that,
time nor for hundred years after:
ward. There were no race courses nor.
trotting parks and the roads generally
were so poor that speed was not de-
sjrable had 1t been possible with
safety. Oxen were found to be much,
better for all farm work.
Most of the land was rough, rocky,
and full Of stumps, so that oxen. being
strong, patient and slow, made much
the better team for agricultural pur-
poses and numbering than did horses.
and they were cheaper kept, needing
but little grain even when at hard
work. and none at all when in pasture.
They required no expensive harness
like horses, only cheap yoke and
chain, and were quickly yoked.
Under such circumstances it is not
surprising that horses in New Eng
land were not greatly admired or much
petted. A farmer was prouder of a
yoke Of large, fine red oxen, four years
old, well matched and well broken,
than Of q span of degenerate. horses
such as were common at that time III
the country. They were seldom stabbed
or groomed except when at work every
day. The colts until three years old
were wintered in the yard, in order, it
was supposed, to make them tough and
hardy. .

Tricks Found Necessary in
Getting the Ugly Crocodile
to Pose for His PHOTOGRAPH

1t is habit of crocodiles to conceal
themselves in burrows in the banks
Of rivers, which makes it real task
for the photographer whose problem
is to rout them out of their holes and
get them into view of the camera. In
the American Museum Journal A. w.
Dimock gives an amusing description
Of the methods he used when con
fronted with the task of taking pic
lures Of crocodiles in Florida.
1t was really exciting, says Mr..
Dimock, after locating the mouth of
a crocodile's cave, to hang the noosed
end of a rope in front of it and stand
on the bank above waiting for ''bite,"
while my boatman busted himself
thrusting harpoon pole into the
earth from ten to twenty feet behind
me. In a few moments out would
rush the crocodile; then there would
be excitement at my end of the line.
The big reptile always struggled and
fought; he clutched at the line and.
rolled over and over; he swan out
into the stream and he sulked in it's
depths, but the moose was tightly
drawn and never allowed to slip, and
the end found the creature facing the
camera on the bank. eufs
It was matter Of ethics that the
crocodile should be freed when he had
posed for his photograph, and remov.
ing the lasso called for much agility
on the part of the volunteer.

Next Sunday is Mothers Day. Let
everybody wear flower as tribute
OF love and respect to "Mother-the
hottest thing alive'-as Colridge puts
It. Let natures choicest flowers make
glad the dear mother heart, and let
words Of love and appreciation and
little acts Of kindness cheer her on her
pathway Of life. If far away, write
hera letter-the letter she has longed
Tor, perhaps many day. Be thankful
that your mother still lives and thinks
OF you. If she already has gone to
the spirit land, let the sweet memory
OF her enter your soul and make your
life purer and nobler. Blessed be the
good mothers of the land.
