Fairgrounds Close

The second season of the
Red Cross Fairgrounds closed
last Saturday. A continuation
Of the grounds next season will
require much larger Red
Cross membership or much
work in raising funds. It
would seem that if parents de-
sire a continuation that the
Fairgrounds be taken over by
the town. It is a work that is
generally conducted by the vii
lac or town under the Trustees
or Selectmen. The present
playground equipment com
prises $3.50 worth of apparatus
which would be turned over to
the town. A central location
away from private residences
should be obtained where the
children can romp and play 20

A WORD ABOUT SHOES.

We are all grateful for the warm
weather which allows US to go about
with low shoes and free ankles. The
feet and the ankles are much health
Ter in summer simply because. of this
greater freedom. But there is one
danger to the foot that comes from
wearing summer shoes and that is the
danger of not giving it proper support.
Pumps are so becoming and so good
looking that their popularity will
probably always continue. but they are
not the healthiest sort of shoe. They
do allow almost perfect ventilation Of
the foot because they are loose and
light, but they do not give the foot
and ankle the support it should have.
This is particularly true of the high
heeled pump which is the favorite
choice of almost every woman because
it makes the foot look smaller. A
low heeled pump is not so bad since
it allows the weight of the body to rest
on the heel and the ball of the foot.
Probably the ideal shoe is the Oxford
with a low or military heel This gives
support around the heel and over
the ball of the foot and over the in
step as well. The new types of pump
that have straps coming over the in
step are, however, almost as good and,
of course, much dressier in appear
ance.
To be healthy as we'll as good look.

Who is it," she asked. You
should have a name" She was famil-

ice of the well-run hotels.
mo name given" the boy answered,
'Ill go ask it."
Gentleman won't give his name"
Then I'm not here" Ruth answered,
and went on with her dinner. Some
thing in her warned her to keep her
self from visitors she did not know.
There had been enough unpleasant
scenes.
The boy started off, calling through
the room the names of other people
for whom he had messages, Ruth
poured herself some coffee - and
looked up to find Tim standing by her
table.
DO you mind if sit down a mo.
ment?" he asked, his voice casual
enough as he took the empty chair
Il do mind" Ruth answered, Il
think you might have known it."
Il phoned up TO your apartment and
got no answer" Tim went on as
though Ruth had not spoken. so
] had you PACED, on the chance that
YOU were still in the hotel. When the
boy came back and asked my name |
knew you were her. So l followed
him and watched to see which table
he went to first
Ruth's waiter came up asking
whether the gentleman would dine.
The girl shock her head impauently,
called for her check and signed 1t.
Her hand shook as she picked up the
pencil. and shook still more when she
picked I'D her coffee cup.
And Just why did you come at all?''
she asked colby.
Because l want to see. I've got to
see you!"

pretty bad sometimes, but l didn''

Which doesn't excuse the fact thai
YOU are too weak to tell her the whole

in the hi; lobby. If Tim was going 4
make a Nene. at least she preferred
TO deal with him alone. There wa
something in his eyes, certain reck

she felt quite equal to any situation
only she did not want to have al

In the living room she turned an

Still he hangs around. Please tell me
what to do about it.
The other boy tells me he loves me,
but l have caught him in two lies and
don't like to hurt him by telling him
I know he has lied to me. What shall
I do about it?
KEWPIE IS.
Keep saying NO" to the young man
for whom you do not care. Eventually
he will wake up TO the fact that you
really do not want him.
1t seems to me a very serious matter
TO be in love with a young man who
does not respect the truth. 1t may
make you feel badly to have him mis-
represent now, but imagine how much
worse you would feel if you were lied
to by your husband. Do not pry into
YOUR friends affairs and make him tell
YOU whether or not he is going with
other girls. but VIXEN he deliberately
tells an untruth and you know 1t, tell
him that YOU would like him better if
he respected you enough TO tell you
the truth and nothing but the truth.
You are rather young to be seriously
in love.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Is ii possible
TO meet a young man that the girls
nowadays would call slow? have tried
time after time, but there either ism t
any or else they have not happened
IN be anv place that | have been.
! would just love TO have some one
that is gentle and of a quiet DISPOSE
ton to talk to. but young men all seem
so tickle. DISCOURAGED.
You have not met the right man
yet 7 think if you keep your ideals
and guard yourself so that you will be
ready for the right man when he does
come, you will not be disappointed
OF course young men are tickle, but il
is only right that they should be until
they want to marry. A man should not
be tickle, however and at the same
time make love.
