especially with your

hair"
you are very fckle. You don't
know what you want. You will
pick until you get the wrong one"
This worries me. and / don't
know why they say these things.
but I will say that / have had lots
of men friends and have also been
engaged to one, but later found out
i did not love him and broke the en-
gagement. Do you think | was
right and should ! wait for the time
to come when l find the one I love?
BLUE EYES.
Take what your friends say with
a grain of salt. You know most
of US can take care of our enemies,
but are stumped when it comes to
our friends. When real love comes
into your life, it will leave you no
choice in the matter. 1t will lead
you around by the nose, and you
will be like a helpless bit of this
tledown in its grasp. Blue Eyes"
are usually True Eyes"-there-
fore be true to yourself and wait
until you really know love. The
trouble with most people is that
lacking real love they feel it neces-
sary to play at some kind of SUBJ
stitute. Play around all you like,
but never lose your sense of values.
Realize that it is only play and
save the worth while things of
your nature for the worth while
love. Fortunately it is no longer
necessary for girl to marry.
Once marriage was a woman's only
respectable profession. Today she
can afford to marry for love or
failing love she has the privilege
Of remaining single and swapping
her fingers under the noses of the
world and his wife-especially his
wife.
Some time ego young girl who
signed herself Lonesome wrote
asking me to find her a girl chum.
l have an interesting letter from
another girl who would like to
meet Lonesome" Will she please
send her name and address?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am a young girl who at the age
OF sixteen thinks great ueal OF
boy a little older. We went to-
gcther for a while, but we often had
misunderstandings, so consequently
we discontinued going together.
find that | think great deal of him,
now that do not go with him and
| would like to have his friendship
again. I often see him with other
girls and go with other boys, but
we always speak. I realize that
good bit of our Misunderstanding
was on my part as well as his.
REGRETFUL.
Aren't you afraid that the same
misunderstanding would occur II
you we're to renew this friendship?
You tried it once and it failed. 1t
probably would again. The reason
you seem to want him now is be-
cause he isn't around where you
can see his faults or the traits
which caused the friction previ-
ously. | should think twice, IL /
were you, before / made any ef-
fort to be with him again.

MCURTAIN FOR BETTER ROADS
Road Bonds Carry In Oklahoma C0nn-
 ty by Large Majority.

Idabel, Okla, April 10.-Once more McCurtain county goes over the top. Unofficial returns from over the county show that the $350.000 road bonds have carried by more than six to one With four small boxes unreported the vote now stands 3,O44 for and 49S against the bonds. The four boxes not reported are Bethel, Ida, Smithville and Watson. Of the 21 boxes report ed, only four gave majority against the bonds.
 The success of these bonds is due entirely to the untiring efforts of the officers and members of Me Curtain county good roads association, to whom too much praise can not Dc given for the splendid service they have rendered the people of the county during the past few weeks.
 This is by far the most important step ever taken by the county ana will do more to convince the balance o fthe state that McCurtain county is really made up of an intelligent and citizenship than anything else We could have done.

Some of the towns over the country are being reported by the Census De- partment, and the rule is that most of them have shown substantial growth. The country has not been heard from. How is that going to be? We very much fear that the country is going 10 show a falling off, and that the towns and cities have grown at the expense of the farms. High wages and certain other advantages have caused many to leave the farm and move to town. Since the country and the farm is the backbone of the nation and our economic life, where are we going to land if We remove the back bone? There is going to have to come q time before long that will equahze or balance opportunities ana start a back to the farm movement or civiliza- tion is going to bump up against one of the laws of nature and get the worst of it. Better roads, better rural schools and churches may help to meet the situation, but not entirely An economic law is as fixed and un- changeable as any law of nature When we arbitrarily shorten our hours of work and raise our pay We are creat ing an artificial condition that is un- sound

The presidential primary is being tried out in many of the states very much to the discontinue of the old line politicians. It will be great day for the American people and sad one for machine politics when the presi- dential primary is the rule the country over. The convention method of mak- ing presidents leaves the naming of the man to the professional policician and we usually get a professional politi- clan for a candidate. It some time happens that convention is forced tt name a real man, but it has not been the rule. Expediency, rather, has been the rule and the public has been forced to take what it was handed.
