Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two
16 year old school girls in quest Of in
formation. Is it proper for a girl to
let a boy put his arm around her while
riding in an automobile? Is it abso-
iutely incorrect for a girl to let her
lover kiss her before they are en-
gagged. Betty and Peggy.
I don't believe there is any reason
for a boy to put his arm around you
while driving, and it is reckless
if the boy is driving. 1t is not proper
and would advise you not to
allow it. 1t is unconventional and not
considered proper to allow your lover
to kiss you until you are engaged, or

I have a steady fellow and he stays
some nights until 1880 o'clock and
my aunt scolds and says II o'clock is
late enough. Mary D.
I agree with your aunt and think II
o'clock is plenty late enough to have
caller. If you have been to the
theatre or dance then of course it will
be later. But when coming home very
late at night it is not considered neces-
sary to invite an escort in unless it is
very cold and they wish to get warm
before leaving, and then they should
stay only few minutes.

hips which are the vogue. Here is a

The model which gives such extreme

favored by the younger women. The
quaint little bodice is effective with
the novel skirt and the tiny punches
of satin fruit are just the right
trimming touch.

EXPECT THRONG
AT WILDWOOD
Reservations at Resort for
Labor Day Exceed All
Records.

wildwood, n. j., Sept. 4.-The res
ervations for over Labor Day exceed
all previous records. Many are plan
ming to stay for a fortnight or more.
They are wise in this. for September
is one of the most delightful months
at the seashore. The hotels are look
ing forward to a month Of heavy
patronage, because the incessant
rains of August caused thousands of
persons to cancel their vacation
plans with the idea of coming here
in September. Accommodations
await them.
The sun has at last found its
sphere and its rays are soothing and
health yielding. In the language OF
natatorians. The water is fine
Fishing and cunning are also good
during this month. And the nights
are cool and comfortable, assuring 6
pie asant repose.
The railroads, in anticipation of
heavy travel, have arranged for eX-
ira trains, so as to give the patrons
of this resort satisfactory service.
The Dayton, which has been well
patronized all season, is planning eN-
tensive alterations this fall. The
building will be entirely renovated
on the interior and faced with a
brick on the exterior.
The realty men report many rem
tails for next summer and big de-
mand for heated apartments and cot
taEes for all-year occupancy.
The Municipal Orchestra concerts
in the Casino auditorium will termi-
nate September u. The last concert
will be free, and if the plans of the
music committee of the Board OF
Trade materialize the climax of the
musical orchestra season will be a
big surprise to the patrons of the
concert. \ noted soloist probably
will appear.
A number of other special events
are planned by Conductor Walter
Pfeiffer for the nights preceding the
closing of the season.

this is in the divine arrangement
and plan of the ALL Wise, and He
has told us all about it in His
Word. long ago, but We have
been very slow to learn and TN
derstand. I feel sure that you are
called in a special way to set
forth the Truth to those who are
to dwell on the earth in all etern-

as the Garden of Eden, the sam
pie He gave US in the beginning.

POWER AND SPEED.

l dunno whether you folks pay
much attention to such things
or not, but | am a powerful crank
about noticing things of this
sort. Within the past three
months / have noticed three very
remarkable announcements in
the papers, all having to do with
the question Of power and
speed.
The first announcement was
about a young teller up north
who claimed to have invented a
new method of vaporizing gaso-
line-the electric spark vaporiz-
err he calls it-and he claims that
it will do away with the carbure-
tor entirely and give greatly in
creased mileage per gallon. He
promises that the average four
cylinder car will run ninety miles
on a gallon of gas.
The second announcement
comes from Kansas City, and it
says that some genius out there
has invented a new and very SUI
perior motor. It is said to be
built on entirely new principles
and gives promise of un-heard-of
mileage per gallon. It operates
on a fuel saving Of sixty per cent
compared with motors now, in
use. 1t will make possible the
manufacture of a car selling fol
$3.50.
Now just suppose the New
York man and the Kansas City
man get together and combine
their inventions. That is, equip
the Kansas City motor with the
Yankee electric spark vaporizer
Since when used separately they
can go ninety miles on a gallon
if put together they would evi
IDENTIFY go 100 miles on a gallon
That would only be ninety miles
apiece, as the Irishman said.
But here comes the third an
nouncement. A fellow by tn
name of Smith claims to hav'
refused one million dollars TO,
a new MAGNETIC MOTOE
which he has invented. He say;
his new device will operate au
tomobiles, trucks, street cars
!, railroad trains, lighting an
, heating plants, and in fact any
thing else that motive power
needed for. This machine i
said to be driven by magnets, an
, is so simple that anyone can pre-
duce his own power, withou
coal, gasoline or any other kin
