Strongest Emotions Do Not
Show On Surface.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAN:
You have helped so many people
that / am writing with the hopes
that you can tell me what is wrong
with me.
/ am a young girl OF eighteen.
have travelled extensively in this
country and the majority OF the for
eign countries, and, therefore. have
seen life in most of its different
spheres.
But everyone speaks Of me as hav-
ing heart of stone. Now I don't
really know why they say all this
except for the fact that / have never
been one to give in to ones feel
ings or do like some folks do when
a little something goes wrong; in
other words, sit down and cry. 7
know that for the most part crying
never does 1t any good. and when
I get blue l shut myself up with n
book until / feel like mixing with
people again.
Now, l go to the theaters and
movies quite often. and sometimes
the picture VIII be very sad-sad until
1t will bring tears to your eyes, and
the tears will come but never fall.
Then music makes me sad, but
can't relax and let the tears come.
I believe that II has been two years
since / really cried. And Just be-
cause of this, because they never see
me give way TO emotion that may
be inwardly breaking my heart,
they say that i am cold.hearted and
have no feelings.
Dear Miss Fairfax, do you have
to show your feelings openly to
everyone to make them realize that
you are what you don't seem?
Please give me your opinion on this
misunderstood GRILLE.
Don't ever feel disturbed at diff
feripg from the mob. Surely there
are enough weeping, shifting
women in the world without your
needing to show regret because
you don't belong TO that aggrega-
ton. Some Of the women who feel
the least are capable Of making
the greatest show of emotion,
grief, and so forth. And many
people, men notably, who feel much
more strongly about things, make
no outward expression. BE CRATE
full you are so constituted and
don't waste any time caring what
other people think

National Party Platforms DO

Apropes Repeated Promises Of National Ceaventi

For many years the two big political parties, in their
patona conventions have solemny pledged themselves In
behalf OF equitable retirement" law for superannuated
civil service employees

soictude.
President Wilson has endeavored to have his party
fulfill each platform promise. He has strongly favored
retirement legislation His Cabinet officers record
for the same thing
The Houso has passed retirement legislation and
Senate majority favors such legislation. The trouble in
that body Details differences too small to
stand in the way of that will immensely benefit
the Government and do ardy justice to hundreds OF super
annuated clerks who given the best of their lives to
the Government and must not be thrown out upon the
world without means OF livelihood
Party promises ought to be sacred Platforms are
made to attract voters, it is true, but the great potlca

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Am a constant reader OF your let
ters in The Times. and enjoy them
very much. You have given such
good suggestions in every case, j
will ask your opinion now.
l am a young lady t~enty-onc
years of age. / have been living In
Washington for the past two years.
In that time I have met quite q
number Of fellows, but none OF
whom / consider worth while and
real gentlemen. as they think too
much about making love-" and
that doesn't suit me. 1 am just the
contrary. do not attend public
dances nor care particularly for the
theater, but like long walks and
outdoor sports. i have never been
able to meet a fellow that enjoys
these sports. Do you really believe
there is a fellow in Washington
that would give up "spooning" 70;
a long hike? II so. / would greatly
appreciate an Introduction. Have
you any places to mention where
person would most likely meet one
of these fellows? One other thing:
Can you suggest why n girl appeals
more to married men than to single
ons when she encourages neither:
ZllLlAH.
Human beings are neither made
to order nor served up on a platter.
I should think you might meet
some such man at the community
service affairs and although / do
not know OF the organization per-
sonally, there is Wanderlust club
which takes long walks regularly.
Their doings are regularly an
nounced in the column In the
Times known as whats Doing,
When and Where" In your last
question you have raised a peculiar
problem, which think many girls
out in business life know from sad
personal experience. 1t seems to me
that married men can AFFORD to
make advances to single girls more
than single men can, because they
know they cannot become involved.
There is always a wife's petticoats
behind which they can hide IL their
amorous advances are taken seri-
ously by the young women they
meet in business. The single man,
on the other hand, has no such
easy place Of refuge and must
necessarily watch his step. other
wise he might find himself engaged
and later married.

There's a great deal in HOW one

that It is not aversion to him but a

Mr.. Johnston has asked question that might puzzle
the eders" An entertaining sermon might be preached
on it.
It is fair to assume that Jesus sought teach the law
yer and all the others with whom He talked during His min
stry live the sort of life He Himself lived and He did
not conne His love those who friendly either in
attitude deed Ke taught His followers to love their
enemies and those who despitefully used them.
The directions for conduct which Jesus outlined were
not The Jews had taught from the time of Moses
that neighbory consideration should be rule of all rela
tons with others.
In Leviticus Moses rectes that Of the commands
which he received from the Lord Thou shalt love thy
neghbor thyseH He devotes the thirteenth to the
nineteenth of the nineteenth chapter in considerable
detail what should and what should characterize rel
tonshps between neghbors To follow them the letter
would insure pretty good citizenship.
Confucius four hundred years before the Christian era
denomnated what should be the attitude Of
another by his explanation Tuchang of the five gaces
and the four vices.
Tzu-chang had asked "What are the five graces?''
Confucius replied "A gentleman is kind, but not
wasefu he burdens but does not ember he is covetous
not sordd minded not proud; he inspires ave. and
not fear
To further what furthers the people, is not that kind
without waste? burdens be sorted strength who
will grumble? To covet love and love, is that sord?
Few many, small great, all is to gentleman he
dare slight any Is not this to be minded and
proud? gentleman sraightens his robe and settles
his face He is stern, and look up him with dread
Is not this to inspire awe and not fear?"
Of the four vices he said "To leave untaught and
then kill is cruelty to ask full tale without warning tyr
rny give careless orders and be strict when the day
is robbery; to be stngy in rewarding little
ness"
No religion could be long sustained which did not have
Of its principles the maintenance of right relations

And if each loved his neghbor as himself and did unto
others he would have them do to him. the ideam of re
gon would become reality and there would an end of

Whatever Jesus may have specifically meant in his talk
with the lawyer this much is certain: To maintain toward

stow upon ourselves and to refrain from actions or motives
which have their basis envy and greed would add immeas
uby to the happiness of this world whatever effect NAV

Algeria. representatives
of the local Jewish community
have presented a memorandum to
the French Government, in which
they ask that the disability laws
now existing in Algeria be re-
moved. They claim that the
Jews fought bravely for France
in the war against Germany and
1000 of their sons died for it's de-
fense In recognition of their 10y
atty and patriotism to France
they believe that the French gov
eminent ought to put them on the
same basis as the other inhabi-
tants of Algeria, and grant them
the same rights. Among the
various laws which infringe upon
the liberties of Algerian Jewry,
perhaps the most outstanding are
those which prohibit them from
buying real estate and which
deny them the right to vote until
they become IS years of age.

ENCES.

London.-The young Jewish vlo-
linist, Jascha Heifetz, who came
here from America with a great
reputation, made his London debut
at Queens Hall. He had to face
a critical audience, which included
a number of well-known musicians.
Heifetz held them spellbound with
his performance, and the critics
showered much praise upon him.
Among the terms applied to him
by The Chronicle are wonderful
artist, artist, great violinist, amaz-
ing virtuoso, magnificent player of
classics" It was one of the most
memorable first appearances ever
made by any artist in this country.
During the recital Melba handed
to Heifetz a large wreath and at
the end of the prearranged pro-
gram the enthusiasm of the audi
ence was remarkable. Every one
crowded up to the platform and
Heifetz was compelled to play four
encores.
