her brothers laugh az her for being
finicky, and her sisters call her a
born old maid. And poor Catherine
doesn't know what on earth TO do.
III tell you what 10 do, Catherine.
You find work IN some other city,
and go live in a college settlement or
some such place as that. You will
find people there who are fond Of
books and pictures and music, and
they Will have manners that please
YOU, and you will not be ashamed OF
them.
Perhaps. however they might be
ashamed Of you. Have you ever
thought OF that2
But why should you try to live
with people who do not understand
you, just because you were born
among them and brought up in the
midst of them? You belong in an
other world. II may not be any
better than this world you're IN now.
But it's different and you are differ
ent. and you VIII never be happy IN
til you get into your own circle
where you belong
II isn't all in what YOU have al
ways been used TO. I know a girl
who was born of rich parents. went
20 a fashionable boarding school
and knew only people in a certain
exclusive social set She met the
steward on steamer. married him
and went 10 live with him in his
own country-and I never saw a
happier woman in my life than she
is. No, II isn't because she's In
love with her husband that she's so
happy That isn't the only reason.
She belongs 20 her husband. She
has the same ideas. the same out
look on life as he has. She knows
Just exactly what he thinks and feels
the sa me way. I think she would
have made a great mistake is she
had insisted upon marrying some
BODY who happened 20 be born a
neighbOr 10 her, and who hadn't a
single thought or feeling in common
with her.
Make Your Own Friends.
Catherine. you're out Of place
Every word of your letter shows
that, and if you are SO anxious 70
get away from the people with
whom YOU are ASSOCIATE d-whisper
there isn't much doubt that they
will be just as delighted 10 get rid
OF you.
Find your own place in the world
Make your own friends. Live up
% your own standards-and II you
marry. marry a man OF whom you
are not ashamed and who would not
dream OF being ashamed OF you.

Winifred CLack Writes About:
An Out-Of-Place Girl

Poor Catherine. She's a dove
among a lot OF ravera She's
pheasant in a barnyard with a lot OF
hens. She's an eagle In cage with
people looking through the bars and
saying things about her feathers.
She's a zebra trying 20 pretend she's
a cart horse and never snuffed a
desert wind or listened TO the hush
ing lullaby Of the jungle in all her
life.
Poor Catherine! And yet IL you
should ask the people tina. she
knows about her. they would just
say. Hates queer" or Kitty is
nut" and that would be the end of
y as far as they are concerned. For
the sort of people Catherine knows
are the sort who think anyone who
is different from them must be fee
BILE minded or something.
Catherine is unusually intelligent
and rather fastidiOus. She isn't vain
and she doesn't care much for fine
clothes. but she does like the feel
Of fresh. cool linen. She likes plain
little hats and neat little frocks, and
she simply can't bear 10 do her hair
in dips" just because the rest of
the girls wear their hair that way.
Catherine likes 20 read and she
likes 10 walk through the crowded
streets and make up stories 10 her
self about the people she meets
there.
She likes poetry and she is very
fond of music. Oh yes. She likes
dancing well enough and she isn't
at all a bad dancer. but she isn't so
crazy about il that she's willing 20
80 anywhere with anyone, just TO
dance
And somehow she doesn't feel at
home with the men and the girls
that she knows. and she has more
than a suspicion that they don't feel
at home with her.
Work VIII Help.
But there's one man-he's must
cal. too-and he and Catherine have
been very friendly FOR while. The
other day he asked her 20 meet him
down town and go TO the theater
with him. When she met him he did
not look right 20 her. He was un-
shorn. and there was something
about his collar. and then he chewed
tobacco. and she couldn't lear that.
But when she spoke 20 him about il.
he said that IL she didn't like II, she
knew what she could do. He WASH
going 10 change his ways for any
woman And he talks loud in the
street and says things about other
women who pass. And Catherine
doesn't know what 10 do. She loves
him but she IS ashamed Of him. And

WOMEN KEEN FOR
POLITICS, SHOW
LIVELY INTEREST
Chairman of Elkhart District
Highly Pleased With
Reports.

ELKHART, Ind, Sept. THAT
the democratic wome1 OF the 18th
district are taking a keen interest in
politics. and that they have a warm
enthusiasm for Gov. Cox as their
standard bearer, is the assertion Of
Mrs. Grace Carpenter OF this city,
women's chairman OF the district
Mrs Carpenter is at home only
for brief intervals. between trips 10
all parts of the district. which she
is efficiently organizing for the
campaign. OF the seven counties in
the district. five are completely or
gained. and the other two organiza =
tons viii be completed within a
short time.
Interest Grows.
Before TennesSee's ratification
gave women the assurance OF voting
for president this fall. said Mrs.
Carpenter today, there really was
hut slight interest in the presidential
race. among the women. But since
Tennessee's action wonderful
change has come over the women
Of the district. a change that is
easily apparent TO one visiting the
different localities. and a change
that presages good for the success
OF the party in November
Il have heard of one woman who
says she isn't going 20 the polls and
hopes all women who do go Will
have tobacco juice spit on their
dresses and I have also heard OF
one man who said, IL the petticoats
are going % vote, he isn't but such
instances as these are few and rep
resent but a very small part OF the
sentiment Of the district
Women throughout the district
are taking an interest in the cam
paign, are following the events close
~. and dre studying the issues care
fully I have found the democratic
women especially pleased over Gov.
CoXs attitude upon the League Of
Nations and upon labor issues. He
seems 20 have struck responsive
chord among northern Indiana wo-
men upon these two issues partic-
ularly His address AZ South Bend
did a great deal 10 create enthusi-
asm for the ticket among the wo-
men Of the district. many OF whom
expressed the hope that Gov. Cox
will visit this vicinity again during
the campaign
Men Are Cooperating.
The cooperation that men Of the
district are extending the women in
their first adventure in politics = a
phase Of her work that has greatly
impressed Mrs Carpenter.
without the aid that the men
are giving Us in our advent into
political affairs. We should be very
much al sea" she declared.
Mrs Carpenters method OF or
canizinE q county Is 20 call a meet
ing at the county seat. at which rep
resentatives OF every precinct are in
attendance whenever possible. Pre-
clnct committee women for each
precinct in the county are chosen.
In addition 20 a women's county
chairman and vice chairman IN the
towns and cities.
IN her talks 20 gatherings OF wO-
