Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am
stranger in town. Recently I met by
accident an ex-soldier whom l
thought ! had seen somewhere be-
fore. l inquired about him Of my EN-
ployer and found / had seen him a
few. times in another little town, bur
had never learned his name. He and
I are employed at the same place.
He seems very much interested 10
me and my work, and, will admit, !
am beginning to become very much
interested in him. He Is very jolly
and often talks, but l am at loss of
how to talk to him.
1t seems to me / have made an
error, as l constantly recall how
made his acquaintance. Please tell
me what l should do to overcome this.
THANKING YOU.
Of course it is impossible for me to
plan your conversations with the
young man. Talk about anything that
seems to fit the occasion and will in
terest him. The fact that he talks
to you should make it easy for you
to follow his lead.
You have not mentioned in what
way you made your acquaintance. II
matters little, however, since the
mistake is already made. Try to for
get about it and act in such a way
that from now on he will have respect
and admira ton for you. Never bring
up the subject of your unconventional
meeting.

The Diary of an Engaged Girl
BY Phyllis Phillips

At breakfast this morning mother
told me that dad had offered TO let
us have three months in Europe -
that is if my wedding day was not
scheduled until some time in the fall.
You see Jack and I have postponed
the great day because he has been
ordered west on three months tour
Of inspection for his firm
almost tainted with delight at the
news, for have begged dad for years
to let me see Paris, London, and all
those wonderful cities that ! have
read about But he never seemed in
the least bit enthusiastic about my
idea And nowi

happy at my good luck and we can

should die if had to give up this
trip.
Aunt Cecilia is also to go, but some
how or other she didn't seem a bit
enthusiastic about the proposition,
much to my amazement. She sort Of
looked far-awayish and the expression
that was in her eyes when she told
me her story last night came into
them again. She has lovely starry
eyes, the dear.
When l asked her if she wasn't
wild to go she said that it would be a
great treat for me, but she wasn't
sure that she had the right to let
daddy undertake her expenses too
and all that sort of thing. / believe
that she is thinking of plans of her
own. She never says very much,
Aunt Cecilia.
l shall tell Jack at tea today and
then l can go ahead and plan for the
conquest of Paris to my hearts con-
tent. Mother insisted that I allow
Jack to decide about the whole mat
ter and that made me feel queer.
Mother is such a stickler for the rights
of frances. Too much so. She'd never
allow me an inch Of liberty if she had
y her way, I'm sure. Mothers are most
peculiar people. l think. They seem
to forget. sometimes, that they were
ever young and filled with longings-
just those longings that mean so little
and yet so much!
She was peeved when ! tossed my
head and told her that Jack had just
told me Of his proposed trip and that
] did not see that the decision lay
with Jack any more than with my
self She said that to her way of
thinking the girls of today were far
too independent for their own good.
That struck me funny OF course
we had an argument right then and
there. We've had lots of them lately.
1t must be that we are both more
nervous than usual and I'm sure | am
more touchy since l became engaged
to Jack
She was very angry when dad look
ed over at her and reminded her that,
after all. l was only half grown-up
as yet and he couldn't see why girls

no wonder she's forgotten the little
longings of her girlhood days. Why,
she's been married forever.
When she left the table she told
me hat ''one fool in the family was
enough" and / saw poor, dear Aunt
Cecilia go scarlet, for the hit was
meant for her as we'll as me-

the most important problem con

The correspondent quotes him as
saying:
For that purpose the Soviet drew
up a special understanding which
was made public in America some
time ago. Some Of the Powers mis-

nothing extraordinary in that. Old

but 1t takes a long period TO erect a

period involved, the surer will be the
basis OF reconstruction.

In regard to the economic pros
