The Diary of an Engaged Girl
By Phyllis Phillips

This morning | started off bright
and early to make several purchases
for my new studio. 1t was the most
thrilling hour in many months. |
went poking into all sort of antique
shops, and bought bits of copper and
several hangings, not to mention the
most artistic screen imaginable.
Finally l wound up in Vantine's,
/ was busy trying to decide just which
OF the many gorgeous materials before
me l wanted for curtains, when some
thing caused me to turn and face
mother!
You can imagine my horror. But
that ready tongue of mine came nobly
to my rescue, and l smiled serenely
at her, as l explained that l was buy
ing curtains for an artist friend OF
mine. She seemed satisfied, but cEiti-
cised both mine and the absent art
lists taste in the choice of colors for
curtains. Women nowadays. she as
sured me, were crazy. My orange silk
curtains seemed deaer to me than
ever at her words, and I explained
10 her that different people and their
environments had different tastes.
After reminding me that l had an
appointment at the tailor's at four
u. u.
few minutes later.
Such fun as 1t was fixing up that
room. Jean and Derry came over
and helped me, and we certainly did
wonders with things. Then we secured
round the neighborhood for an easel
and some canvases. Everything was
ship-shape before four o'clock - and
the everlasting tailor.
When l had been mauled and
fretted by that individual l went into
a duck of a shop and bought me two
of the most adorable smocks imagin-
able. Just the feel of them filled me
with new life and ambition.
To my way of thinking, nothing in
the way of clothes so perfectly ex-
presses ones individuality as a smock
1t can be such ravishing and bellig-
erent affair. as well as comfy

ting my latch key into my very own
studio door. And how wonderful to
shut said door on the various upsets
and depressions that make up the or
binary drab existence of Lindsey Tur
ner herself!
Here was my castle in Spain, this
spacious, remote corner of the world
fitted up by my own hand, and mold ed
by me into the thing that I desired
l actually shivered with delight as
slipped into the brighter of my two
smocks, and pushed my hair up into
gloriously becoming though untidy
knot on the top of my head.
This done, l sat down before my
easel

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am a girl
almost II years old, and have never
had a beau. Do you think it would
be all right for me to write to young
man first whom l have never seen,
even if my mother does object, and
do you think it any harm to keep the
letters hid from her. | have been
writing to this young man for almost
two months and he writes such low
ing letters. Don't you think it would
be a romance for me to propose, as
1t is leap year, or would you wait
awhile longer. Don't you think ! am
old enough to know my own business
and be my own boss. My mother
WON'T allow me on the street at night
unless she can be along. Don't you
think she is too strict on me?
Thanking you for your advice.
The Wisest Girl on S. Third Street
Instead of thinking you the wisest
girl on South Third street, I would
say that you were one of the most
foolish girls in the city. A girls moth
er is her best friend, and what &
mother says should be taken as law
in all cases. The young man you re
fer to is probably merely seeking di
version, and if he cared for you al

Unless the allowance is large enough
to cover clothes the cure will be OF
little benefit. If girl is free to buy
all the clothes she wants, she usually
cares little for other spending money.
Your sisters selfishness will lead to
great unhappiness for herself unless 1t
is curbed.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I love a GER
tain girl-maybe am too young to say
love. She has moved from this town
with her family. / was one of her
classmates for four years and | liked
to sit and look at her as l thought she
was the only girl in the world l really
cared for. l think about her at night.
Her parents were rather particular
and did not want her to associate
with boys and so l never went with
her except to see her at school. I
now see my mistake by not trying to
go with her when it would have made
me happy.
Since | have never been with her
do you think it improper to write her?
She might think | was not much by
writing to her after she leaves and not

my own lot. l feel fortunate to repay
father in some little way for all he is
doing for me and will do my child.
Sister is a constant worry to both
father and mother. They reason with
her but it does no good. She brings
guests home to dinner without saying
anything beforehand and does not even
do the dishes to help.
Father thinks that the way my
sister acts helps to keep mother poor
in health, but he doesn't know what
to do Sister also spends more money
than any of the rest of us. l think she
ought to go to work, but mother won't
listen to it.
Don't you think sister ought to go
to work? MARIAN.
Yes, it seems to be that it would be
good for your sister to hold position
where she will have to work. Since
your mother objects, however. it is
out of the question.
Another way which would probably
be even more effective than office
work would be for your father to give
her a conditional allowance. II she
does certain things she will receive
money from him. but not otherwise

all, he would meet you openly, and
not be content with what you term
loving" letters. I do not think a
girl of II is old enough to mind her
own business, and she is not her
own boss, either by right or law, or
morally My advice is forget it, and
try to interest yourself in better
things than trying to deceive your
mother.
Dear "Puzzled": Yes, l think you
could win back the woman you so
lily treated, but if were she it would
take mighty good deal of considera-
ton, kindness and general manliness
on your part to convince me that you,
a grown man, busy with the cares of
the world, would treat me better now,
after few months, than you did when
you were just starting your business
life.
You had better not be too sure that
she has been waiting for you all this
time, either, for such heartless neg
lect years ago may have entirely
buried her love for you. In other
words, would not go about recover
ing her friendship-and love-in any

thing but a docile and deprecatory
manner. Yours is a stony path of
explaining to an evidently sweet
woman a very unexplainable proceed
ing on your part.
However, if you are sure you can be
good and kind to this woman, and in
the future treat her with courtesy
and attention, obtain her permission
to call. Perhaps she will not consent
to this If you write or phone her, SO
call at her home at time she will
be likely to be in. Explain that you
have an important matter to discuss
with her and then proceed to beg
her forgiveness.

x. x < Liberal Response to Sunday School Appeal

10T1 HE thirty thousand dollar drive
 0 for the Birmingham Sunday School Association will be an over the-top success. The result of the campaign Wednesday and Thursday totaled seventeen thousand dollars, and as many generous supporters of Sunday school work could not be reached, it was decided to have two days canvass next week.
 The association is interdenomina- tional and special collections will be taken in the Protestant churches to- morrow for this. worthy cause. Sew eral thousand dollars will probably be raised by this means, and it need be no surprise if the campaign finish brings the total up to thirty-five or forty thousand dollars.
 If some drives fall below the mark, the Sunday School Associations ap- peal touches responsive chord that spells drive with big D.
