Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am "a
years old and am keeping company
with two young men. One has ask
ed me to marry him and 1 have
asked for time to make up my
mind.
He is a fine fellow and we'll liked
by my family. He has a fine posi-
ton and owns an automobile. He
never attended college, Nbut seems
just as bright as a college man.
The other young man attended
medical school and graduated last
spring. He does not make as much
money as the first by any means,
but he will certainly do we'll later
because he has gone into an Office
with a physician Of very good
standing.
like the one who has asked me
to marry him and will feel badly if
l have to give up his friendship,
but love the young doctor.
The doctor has said nothing
about marriage, but l am sure he
cares for me and is only waiting
until he is in a position to marry.
My parents like the doctor, too, but
! they prefer the other because he
is ready now to marry.
What shall l do? ShalrI accept
the man who has asked me or shall
l wait for a man in hopes that he
will ask me? RUTH.
| II you are frequent reader OF
my column you have noticed many
times that women are in trouble
because they have married the
wrong man not knowing until toe
late that the right man loved them
| Wait for love. would advise
you to tell the man who has pro.
posed that you do not care enough
for him to marry. II he cares t
remain your friend and nothin,
more, accept him as such.
i The young doctor may neve1
propose. but at any rat. you ca,
know in your heart that you did NO
marry one man when you loved an
other.
