As a woman who is soon to vote
| would like to know If our state
government is operating under the
governors code bill which l under
stand was passed by the last legis-
lature. If so, is it proving to be a
good measured
The legislature of 1919 passed the
code bill, permitting the governor to
appoint secretaries of finance, labor,
trade, commerce, agriculture, public
welfare and public works. The law
is now in operation. A referendum
petition was filed against the bill, but
was held invalid by the court. The
case was appealed and is now before
the supreme court.
The code bill is designed to bring
about more efficient business ad-
ministration of the states affairs,
through the consolidation of exist
ing bureaus and commissions. the
looping off of unnecessary agencies,
the prevention of duplication or
overlapping functions, and finally by
providing a budget system for the
apportionment of funds. 1t has not
yet been in operation in Nebraska
long enough to determine its full
value and usefulness, but the basic
idea is sound. . .

AS we are In earnest, please an.
swer as soon as possible. Sincerely,
INQUIsITIvES.
You are too young to go with boys,
with or without dates In advance.
Boys who escort young ladies homo
should take them to the door Of the
home. II boy puts his arm around
you and you don't object to that, he
will go farther, And the more libsr.
tets he takes without your protest
the more difficult it will be to stop
him when you wish to. There Ia no
particular wrong in exchanging rings
with boys except that probably your
mind is full of silly thoughts instead
of sensible ones. A lie Is wrong, asS
especially one which harms others.
Your entire letter shows that your
thoughts are on the boy question.
You are too young for that. Go to
school and try to learn something
which will help make you fine wo-
men instead Of empty-headed little
things with only a list of silly ex-
periences to fortify you for the great
ness of life.

International Teachers
Conference Held
This Month.

An international conference. of
teachers organizations of the allied
and associated nations will be held
at Cleveland, O., February 24-2e, un-
der the auspices of the National
Education Association Of the
United States. In its announcement
the association says:
1--WE believe that the public
schools of all the great democracies
of the world can, through co-opera-
tvie effort, do much to conserve and
promote the great ideals for which
the war was fought and won. We
hold indeed, that distinct respon--
sibility rests upon the teachers OF
the allied and associated nations to
fulfill on broader plane than ever
before their great function as trus-
tees of the human heritage-to see
to it that what has been gained at
so great and so terrible a cost is
sedulously safeguarded and transmit
ted without loss and without taint
to each new generation.
$50 important is this problem and
so great are the possibilities of in
ternational cooperation in effecting
it's solution, that the National Edu-
cation association has urged the
creation of an international bureau
of education in the league of ma
tons. AS step toward the estab-
lishment of such a bureau. and as
the nucleus of an. international as
sociation of teachers. it is desirable
that an international conference of
the teachers associations of the free
nations be held at all early date.
Representatives of the Teachers
Federation of France have re-
quested that the National Education
Association of the United States
take the initiative in calling this con-
ference"

Wobbly.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
am in need Of good advice. ] am
Is years old and l am going to have
birthday soon and my boy friend
will listen to nothing but getting me
a diamond. Should / take it?
He is away now for few days
There Is to be dance tonight. but
am not going, but would 1t be
proper to go with another boy Feb.
ruary 8, because there is going to
be one then and l promised him
7 would go then. but II you
don't think 1t is right | can break my
engagement?
VIII it be too much to ask you to
put this in The Sunday Bee?
PEGGIE PARIS.
1t seems to me you are pretty
wobbly in the matter Of your affec.
tions. To accept a diamond ring
from young man would imply an
engagement and unless you love
him sincerely and expect to marry
him (which your letter indicates you
do not), then do not obligate your
self>a deceive him by taking his
ring. The very fact that you want
to run off to a dance with some
other boy shows that you are not
capable of loving deeply and truly
at your age. Go with different boys
II you like, but don't, pretend to
pledge yourself to one unless you
mean to live UP to that pledge.

Masked Ball.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are two sisters, 16 and II years
old. Now, there will be a mask ball
here and we would like to mask
for something nice. We would like
you to give us some advice, as we
want to mask together.
Thanking you in advance, / would
like to see my letter in print as soon
as possible. We remain.
SUNSHINE AND ROSES.
Living in a small town as you do,
it is not as easy to get costume
for a masked ball as it would be in
a city where you could rent an out
fit for an evening. So you will have
to depend on something which can
be devised. Ghost costumes made
up of sheets and conical-shaped
pasteboard hats make one look. very
tall and are in that respect good
disguise. If you could get hold of
a college cap and gown, you could
wear a black mask with it and repre-
sent night. Gold and silver moon
and stars cut from paper would be
pasted or stitched on the black
gown, and if you don't have a cap,
wear crown made Of gold or sill
very, carrying also wand. A
Priscilla makeup is easy and at
tractive. Wear pretty light dress,
simply made, with fichu such as
the colonial danes wore. A wig
would help out. A colonial costume
is very picturesque. Wear an old.
fashioned dress and powder your
hair, or wear a wig. If your mother
has an old-fashioned dress, you could
devise a beautiful masked costume
from this. A country girl is usually
found at masked balls. For this you
would wear a big apron entirely COW
ering you, with sunbonnet on head
and mask over eyes. You can easily
conceal your identity with this
character. If it is just a girls party,
clown suit, like the Yama Yama girls
wore, would be a pleasing choice.
Inquisitive.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are two girls of IA and Is years
Of age. Should we expect dates for
dances with boys? Many of the
girls go without. Is it proper?
When boys escort you home
should they leave you at the end of
the sidewalk leading from the house
or, take you to the steps?
If a boy puts his arm around you
and you don't let him go any farther
why is it wrong?
Is it proper to change rings with
boys?
What is your opinion of a girl
who lies in order to break up a

SANTA f FIRM
ON RATE BOOST
To HAUL LOGS
rs Per Cent Increase Put in
Effect Without Sanction
of Corporation Commits
sion; Fight Is Expected.

Santa Fe, oct. 1O.-The Santa
Zee railroad shows every indication
of standing firm ON its % per cent
raise in the rate for hauling logs
from ThOroau to Albuquerque. The
state corporation commission has
received a wire from f. 3. Hough-
ton, freight traffic manager for
the Santa I'e system. in which he
declares that tho raise on the log
rate is in keeping with other raises
made elsewhere
According to Mr.. Houghton the
raise is only % per cent, while the
rates in California. Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho hove been ad-
vanced i'm the same degree and
those in Texas and west Louisiana
have been tilted 80 per cent. The
raise in the eastern states is 40 per
cent.
Col George f. Breeze, president
OF the Mckinley Land and Lumber
company, has filed with the state
commission an affidavit in which
he declares that the Santa Fe
agreed to a rate of $3.50 per thou
sand and that upon this promise
the company spent 100000 in inn
proving its mills in Albuquerque.
Had the agreement not been made
the mills would have been moved
to the timber lands, he said w
c. Oestreich. president of the
Chamber of Commerce in Albu-
querque at the time the agreement
is reported to have been reached
also filed an affidavit sustaining
the claims Of Colonel Breeze
1t is expected that the lumber
company will ask hearing in the
near future if the old rate of $3.50
is not restored. The state corpo-
ration commission refused to
sanction the % per cent increase.

feet after giving the customary
thirty days notice.

sights he had been compelled 70 witness.
While he was convalescinr in Berlin, bis
parents married him to a very pretty girl Of
seventeen, Princess Marie Augustine of An

OF his eccentrcities. <s they were called;
a decidedly questionable thing to do, con-
sidering the extreme youth Of the bride. The
honeymoon of Prince Joachim did not last
long, and though it is not true that be was
divorced from his wife, yet il is fact
that she left him for reasons which us@
never made public.
Joachim remained in Potsdsm, and IL
seems felt more than any Of his brothers ever
did the degradation involved in the fight
of his father into Holland. He was heard TO
ksiser's place he would have blown his
brains out 10000 times rather than Iesv.

he had reprcached his father for not
