sarcasm.
Brixy seems to think that matri-

young. He says that no two people
can VOW to love each other Indefinite

count for such a rash promise at fifty.
That is, not very many. It's against
all natural needs, instinct and deli

The Diary of an Engaged Girl
BY Phyllis Phillips

AT sight of Jack dancing with an
other girl l felt quite upset. for a
moment. My next thought was that
my escapade with Brixy was nothing
out of the ordinary after all. This
sort of thing was being done" by the
descendants of our very best families.
A most comforting discovery, l can
assure you.
AS I began to think back on all OF
JACKS mandates to me, and of his
constant command that I remember
the fact that ! am engaged to him
now, and therefore mustn't be seen
with Tom. Dick and Harry. for his
sake as well as mine, l grew rather
resentful. How could he have the
errontery to dictate to me. when he
himself was doing the very thing
that he had asked me not to do. in
Vulnerable times? Men are funny
creatures. They have lots to learn,
and feel somehow that Jack is going

spite my nineteen years and inexperi-
ence! l must say that l kept my
presence Of mind beautifully for one

self curious to catch a glimpse of
Jacks charmer. Occasionally l re-
vert to type.)
or course I controlled this unlady-
like desire promptly, and with my
most enchanting smile continued my
conversation with Brixy. We were
soon deep in the evolutions Of the
modern woman, her changed position
IN the world. and just what it's effect
would be on the family life of the
future. etc.
Brixy Is so Interesting when he gets
started on this subject. Jack will
