ADVICE TO THE
LOVELORN
Not Real Friends.
BY Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am 9 years of age and have been
going to business since Il was 16.
When l first started out 1 was very
modest. 1 never f1irted. wore only
linen and lawn blouses, rather long
skirts, but l didn't have many friends,
either slale or female. About a year
ago took tumble to myself l didn't
look ''snappy" enough. that was it.
So now L wear my skirts shorter fix
my hair in a cute" style and wear
georgette waists. but 1 still consider
myself as good and modest as / was at
first. And now 1 have girl and men
friends galore. Does this not prove
that a girl who is alive to her pos
sibilities is the favored one. Viola.
My dear child, your daring clothes
aren't whining you any real friends.
They may bring you a little attention
but they don't build up the sort of
firm loyalty and devotion which would
stand by you if trouble or disfgure-
ment came upon you. 1 don't for one
moment discredit or discount the hui
man body, which is much part of
each of us the soul and mind
what 1 do decry is the fact that so
many young people today discredit
and ignore tn other two-thirds of the
human factor. Charm and sym pa thy
and interest in the people you're deal
ing with-the fact that you've matur-
ed a bit in three years-the fact that
you're learning to observe and think
have more to do with your present
popularity than the clothes, which
are only the external you and can
| nerelyattract-not hold.

A VILLAGE WITHOUT
AN OLD MAID

A village without an old maid
sounds somewhat like. a fairy tale,
but several such places exist down
below the Mason and Dixon line.
"All the women get married in the
mill villages Of South Carolina, and
al an early age" says Y. w. G. A.
industrial secretary stationed at
Greenvil1e, where she works among
the girls in thirteen mills.
Perhaps economic independence
has something to do with it, as mar
riage is not looked upon by the girls
as a meal ticket, but as f1fty-fifty
proposition. The wives do not give
up their jobs but keep right on
working,
That the textile industry In South
Carolina absorbs a large number OF
women as well as men workers IS not
surprising considering the fact, that
there are as many as 152 mills in 29
counties, With the population OF
the state estimated at 1,590,O15 peo-
pie. $4,000 are mill workers, and
19O,26s are dependent on mill pay
The valuation of the mills is IS mil
lion and the weekly pay roll is enc

CHAPTER XIV,

On Cne morning after Jim went to
Washington I woke to the loneliness
Of my room In the Walgrave with a
full consciousness Of how ugly a hotel
room can be. I began to wonder If
Jim's train was in. where he would
have breakfast, how early the war Of
fees opened.
And 50 it all came back, to me! My
husband had gone to Washington to
be examined by a special board con-
vened to pass on his fitness for active
service, his fitness to go back to
France.
1t wasn't patriotic or noble, but
I turned over on my face and sobbed
a little ziz-zag rivulet down the pill
low slip. Then I called myself a
goose, got up and took my bath and
faced the astounding fact that 1t was
only 8 o'clock and I had the long day
to get through somehow.
To order breakfast sent up to our
room seemed impossible. To break
fast in the cold formality of the Wal
grave dining room was more impossi-
BILE. Suddenly all my loneliness and
longing for my Jim right-about-faced
and concentrated itself upon one in
tense desire-to have my boy there to
smile at me over his coffee cup. But
he would not be there all day! Three
lonely meals. set UP like mi1estones
on the long days journey. I felt I
could not bear them. And tomorrow.
I dared not think of tomorrow. I
smiled Through my tears as I decided
to elude one of. those milestone monu-
ments to loneliness. I could not touch
a morsel of food now. plunged int a
seance with Jim's khaki-colored
socks. 1 don't like mending = few
business women do - but I darned
some of my love for my husband into
the kindergarten mats I put into toes
and heels.
At 10 the came a telegram:
arrived safe, fine trip; write later;
hope you are well. jim
Not a word of love-just a cold
'hope you are Well" I started to feel
very mournful about that. and then
I realized that it was from a soldier
not a husband. Still, the morning
didn't rush by on winged feet as a
result of that telegram! There was
nothing for me to- do in the room and
there was nothing to tempt me out of
the room. The cfnambermaid's visit
was golden moment. Toward noon
the phone rang.

in town for the day and would meet

I laughed:
did you cali me up to discuss the
advisability Of 1unching with your
pretty cousin?''
He laughed, too not a deep
throated, boyish chuckle. like my
Jims, but a staccato laugh that had
a queer note of suspense in it.

On the broad. whfte-pillared por-

a keen glance OF admiration in his
