IRMA
1rma Is one of the many feminine
names derived from Teutonic myth
ology. Its evolution is somewhat in
volved, and it cannot be definitely
determined when or how it's final form
which comes to us as Irma, was
reached. 1t is evidently the Angliciza-
ton of a patiently Teutonic FORM
Curiously enough it signifies public
peace
Tracing Irma back to it's Hydrologic
al origin. it Is revealed that the third
son of Mannus was said to be Err, a
deity worshipped as Irman or Ermin
The evolution of this word through
German nomenclature, is irrelevant
here, but the curious fact remains that
its feminine form appears in the Teu.

The Diary of an Engaged Girl
BY Phyllis Phillips

he, do you think that you are doing
the right thing in allowing yourself
to become engaged when you feel this
way and when you realize that you
are being cheated of your birthrlght
to see the world and meet and be
friendly with other men? 1t is some
thing for you to weigh carefully for
your own sake as we'll as Jacks May
be II you had lived a little longer and
had a chance to try your wings these
problems would never have cropped
up at all. An engaged girl should and
usually has the feeling that she has
at last found the one man in the world
for her and all that sort of thing; she
has no doubts, no regrets, hence my
question:
Thereupon I explained to him that
| knew that l loved Jack and would be
intensely miserable if he were. to go
out of my life. but I also felt like
experiencing great many events and
emotions before settling down to
regulated suburban life as a wife.
THAT proves my point to T, said
Cecil. "You love Jack, but you do
not want to be tied just yet. There
fore, I say that you are making a
false move if you marry before you
really feel that your one desire is to
to settle with him, for him, and to
be happy in your choice"
We argued backwards and forwards.
which was just what I needed, and
came to no conclusion after all. But
l do know now that my cold-blooded
cousin is very human and has suffered,
still suffers, and is not critical of me
at all, only sympathetic. He says that
he is going west and hopes to marry
some big, breezy, honest and open
minded girl who will understand him
perfectly and not try to force her
opinions upon HIM, nor curtail his lib
erty in any way. And there are wo-
men like that, little cousin of NINE"
he said softly; ''lots of them. It's up
to me to find them and then pick out
the one who is waiting to share my
love and life with no reservations or
misunderstanding. There can be no
true happiness without love and I'M
derstanding. The one is as important
to lasting happiness as the other.
Be sure that you and Jack understand
each other, as we'll as being attracted
by love for each other before you take
the leap or you will both have cause
to regret the day you were married.
Sounds queer, all this coming from
me. but l have been through my bad
hour-and I've won. Do you like
wise" Dear old Cecil

Dear Mrs. Thompson: There is a girl
in this town who prides herself on
taking other girls fellows. go with
this girl, but would like to drop her
without making her angry, as she is
my pastors daughter
She is very pretty and has way
that the boys can't resist. She told me
herself that she had promised to marry
three boys this summer, but she is
just fooling them and they don't
know it,
I introduced her to my friend and
she just talked until couldn't get in
a word. 1t was annoying and my
friend liked her very much. Yesterday
my friend and 1 went to see this girl
and she pointed out another girl and
told how she was fooling young man
and said that she would not do such a
thing. My friend did not know any
better and he liker her just that much
more. He asked her about having a
cate with her. He is only in town once
month and want him myself.
l try not to be jealous, but l can't
help it. I don't see why she can't
let my friend alone when she has so
many more. She laughs and makes
fun of him after he leaves. Should l
tell my friend how she does? She is
very deceitful. BROWN EYES.
You will lose the young man if you
warn him against the other girl. Let
him find out her faults himself. She
cannot deceive people Indefinitely.
Perhaps you will lose his friendship,
but there will be less danger if you
keep your silence.
1t looks as if jealousy has made you
Judge the girl too harshly. Above all
things be honest with yourself and do
not deceive yourself into thinking she
is unworthy in ways which she really
is not. A popular girl is often mis-
judged.
If you want to drop her. be friend
ly when you meet, but do not seek
her company. You will be accused of
jealousy if you do drop her.

Misery certainly loves company, as
the old saying goes, and Cecil's con-
fession cheered me up lot. We sat
and talked for long, long time after
that and I felt so light-hearted in the
end-you've no idea how much so.
At about five O'Clock we found our
selves laughing heartily at everything.
Once Cecil stopped over and kissed
away a half-dried tear from my LETT
eyelash, and liked it. 1t was so sort
of human. Then 1 told him right
there was a point of puzzlement to me,
the fact that liked him to kiss me.
not only that but to be truthful, l
liked to be kissed by Brixy and Georgy
Porgey-and there was no doubt about
my being a sinner.
How he laughed at this. Shouted

way at all, but it was merely youth.

Efforts will be made by the various

the Ohio State fair, which has become
one al the most important institutions
of the kind in the country West Viz
Einia as state, has never done any
thing to encourage agricultural exhibit
tons or fairs. 1t is the belief Of tho
promoters of this plan that the state
can very we'll afford to appropriate a
reasonable sum each year for the en-
couraGemcnt of agriculture. and tho
plan Contemplates the state offering to
give TO any agricultural fair in the
state. a sum of money equal to the
amount of premiums for agricultural
exhibits. In other words. tho state Will
be asked to double the appropriation for
agricultural exhibits. The bill. aS pre-
pared by II well-known attorney. is IN
tended To cover the state and to give
to any recognized and established fair
in The state. an opportunity to share In
the appropriations. The appropriation
for any one fair in any one year not to
exceed $4,000. 1t Is estimated that
there are some six or seven fairs In the
state which might qualify themselves
for the support Of tho state In this way.
and that a sum Of thirty or forty thou

themselves as premiums for AGRICULTURAL
