How Shall You
Know Your
True Love-
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

Can we put into words the mean
ing of love? Or is il an indefnablc
and impaipable thing
Love is such mystery | cannot
find it out
For when | think I'm most re-
solved.
Then | am most in doubt.
How shall know my true love-"
i. the question which comes to me
most often IN the chain OF daily les
tcrs which binds me to my unseen
trends.
To decide which Of two sritors
girl really loves. - help a man to
some understanding of whether he
is some girls friend or lover, TO iE-
terpret the meaning of the action
of two young folks to each otler-
this is my daily task. Poets, phi =.
lcsophers and sages since the world
began have been struggling with
this mystery.
Yet ! often wonder-is it nys
tcry?
We all know how often youth
tries TO build houses OF love or pas
sion and its lure. Quickening tsart-
Lcats and desire may be part o.
love. But they are not its corner
stone and foundation.
Love must know tenderness and
devotion and loyalty. 1t must be
made and blended of them. With
out them it can't last or satisfy.
When a man thinks he loves d
girl, there are some keynote ques-
tious he might well ask himself. We
al know the old formula: mot cal.
I live with her, but can | live with
out her." A gool enough formula,
but not very clear, is it?
But how about questions like
these to be the touchstones for dis
covering real love?
when she suffers, will | suffer,
too? Will | try to comfort her?
Will l give her my strength on
which to lean? Will l be patient
and understanding when she comes
to bad hours?"
Tenderness. That's what a man
or woman must feel in order to
know the kindness of love.
More touchstone questions:
Am | so interested in myself
that what he wants to do won't in
terest me? Or do / care enough for
him to want to help his career2
Will l put myself in the background
and try to aid him? Will l support
him over the rough places and be-
lieve in him even when he falls?"
Unselish faith. The belief that
makes the rough road beautiful so
two lovers travel it together is
needed for the great misunderstand-
ing of love.
VIII sacrifice be easy? Will
hardships find me smiling and ready
to endure blows and fight my way
past them? Will l be uncomplain-
ing no matter what fortune brings
us?"
Devotion-tae loyalty which
makes two cling together to the
end of the path they haYe elected to-
travel together-is vital for the COM
panionship of love.
Love is useless unless it has ten
derness and devotion and loyalty

Say She Will.
Ev FRANCES L. GARSIDE.

The woman who was chosen from
all .he business women in Ameri "a
20 90 to France to put the records OF
the army, navy ard Red Cross on a
business basis, to index and file and
to put every bi. of data where It
would be the quickest available, was
midwest woman-a young girl who
a few wears ago took her courage by
the hand and left Omaha, where her
parents had pioneered from the east
to 60 east and become pioneer her
self.
! Her name is Annette L. Smiley;
she pioneered in New York CITY bv
ventrring into I rev business; she
was among the small group ol
women who, few years ago. wen.
MO banks and business offices ana
put the records and correspondence
of the firm in good housekeeping
rantry shape. Among this group o.
women was Miss Marion Glenn G:
Kansas City, who took Pile OF
pamphlets on the corner OF the floor
in the American Bankers assoc a.
ton, ard>witil them for foundation
built Up a library &. many thousand
volumes OF information records anG
clippings.
All OF this group produced re
markable results: Miss Smiley IS
one of the few who didn't finally get
bored with the work; she is still at
it. and growing more enthusiastic
with every institution she lifts from
more-or-less chaotic condition,
and puts in order.
Miss Smiley took her training as
4 librarian. and then went into the
business world to apply library prln-
c:ples to the filing of correspond.
ence. the handling Of documents and
general information clippings and
pamphlets. The found, it seemed,
that the work was waiting for ner
for she went from one big institu-
ton to another, applying library
principles to information that had
never before been catalogued.
She was with Kuhn, Loeb & Co,
ard from there went into the office
OF J. P. Morgan & Co., where she
;naugurated complete modern fl
ing system for correspondence, and
also established a sound working
library OH economics and hance:
When she left to answer the appeal
from France, she was at the head OF
the group of women who are max
ing names for themselves on Wall
street.
Il consider" said one man." that
in her position with J. P. Morgan
& Co., Miss Smiley has attained the
highest position open to any
woman in the United States to-
day."
A girl from the midwest; one
who had never had the means for a
college education: one who climbed
up by sheer will power, unaided!
There were never any checks f"om
home for me-" she said with a
laugh.
There is so much that is techni-
cal in a story of her work; SO much
that seems beyond the comprehen-
sion of lay-woman (for "laymen"
does not apply here) that this is
the simplest explanation. She col

on everything pertaining to the in
terest OF the house she is putting
in order; indexes and files it, and
the work doesn't end therefor it
is like a dictionary that must be
kept up to date, or is obsolete.
When in the office of ]. P. Morgan
& Co, she had % women working
under her direction, whose job it
was to go through magazines and
newspapers and read and cut out
and index and file any bit of in
formation that would be useful to
the house. This information covers
world trade and finance: For in
stance, if something's appear in a
paper or magazine about the con
dition OF the French railways today,
that information is available in the
files tomorrow.
Upon her return from France she
opened her own Office, and now free
ances all over the country, putting
house after house on library basis
She is equipped with knowledge
and experience to give service in
variety OF ways. If there is Wea"
spot in an otherwise satisfactory de-
partment. she strengthens and builds
it up. After she has corpe and gone
there is no time wasted by the firm
in looking up records or corre
spondence.
Miss Smiley is not domestic, so
she might deny this. But her work
(ante-dating the entrance of the
trained librarian) is an inherited
trait from good housekeeping an
cestors; it is putting business rec
ords in the order which caused old
time housekecpers to boast that they
could go into their kitchens and
cook a meal in the dark.
After Miss Smiley's departure
from a business Office the, members
of the firm could almost cook =

To business that we love we rise hstirns.
Ans 70 to I with delight
Shakespeare.

What's the use of a surging passion
of desire that covets the possession
of another being unless there's back
of that emotion the great sense OF
belonging?
Belonging. You don't treat your
most valuable jewel carelessly. do
you? If you have a fine diamond
you don't let it get loose in its set,
ting; you don't permit it to lie about
for any chance dishonest passer-bv
to appropriate. You don't fling it
into the mud. You don't scorn it
when its setting grows old-fashion-
ed. You don't love it merely for the
fire and brilliarcy other folks see.
Oh. no! You love it because it is
yours. You cherish it. You guard
it. And you knew you would love
and cherish and guard it before ever
you permitted yourself the extrava-
gance of buying it. didn't you?
Is love less valuable than the
most precious jewel in the world'
OF course not. The question is alb
surd. Love is vital to life. 1t is like
the life giving sunshine of our ex-
stence and the great enfoldins
motherhood of nature itself.
We all need great protecting, be
lieving. understanding kindness to
help us in our dark hours. We all
crave sympathy to cheer US along
life's steep path. We all long for
some one to believe in US. Life il
self requires these, or it is incom-
plete.
Love believes, 1t understands and
forgives. 1t is faithful and loyal.
1t enfolds 1t is ready to take the
blow meant for its beloved.
If you only desire to covet and
long, you don't love. IF you only
like and enjoy. you've failed OF the
great need of life.
But when to the emotion that is
beautiful when right, and the com
radeship needed for the foundation,
are added faith and loyalty and
great enfolding tenderness, then We
lave love.
Love isn't mystery at all II
just like sunshine and warm air
warming, caressing, kind and need
iul for life itself.
