Heart Problens

Dear Mrs Thompson: We are two
girls. sixteen and seventeen years old.
We have gone with boys quite bit,
but they were decent boys.
I, the younger one, have gone with
one boy since April. The other even
ing as was walking down the street
with my girl friend our friends follow
cd us-that is, they came and walked
with us. We had been with different
boys Saturday and Sunday and We had
a date with these fellows. OF course
we "ditched" our old friends 20 go
with the new ones. We met our friends
and then to our surprise tile old friends
came along and caught US.
We let our new friends take us home.
gave the ring my old friend gave me
to the new one to give back to the
old friend. Did do right?
The old friend never took me any
PLACE and yet he said he thought a
great deal of me. My girl friends old
friend asked her to go every place,
but mine never did. The first time
we were with our new friends they
offered to treat US and so did the next
night
Please advise us. We arc Juniors at
high school,
DEAREST FRIENDS.
You should not have given your new
friend the ring to return to your old
friend. Since you were returning it
you should have done so yourself.
To have a date" with a boy oc-
casionally will not hurt you any if you
choose your friends wisely, remember
your self-respect at all times and go
only to the right kind of places. Al
your age you should be satisfied with
callers at your home, school and
reighborhood parties.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: | am Is years
old and want to go to school, but my
father says he will not buy books
| will be in the first year of high school
| have several boy friends and one
wants to go with me. l have known
him for two years and he saws if | &C
to school he will wait, for I am the
only one he wants to go with. Ny
mother is dead and have taken care
of the house for two years. Pleas
give me some advise.
Heartbroken Daughter.
You are entirely too young to pay
any attention to boys. Perhaps there
are conditions which make it neces
sary for your father TO deny you the
chance of going to school, although
this is hard to understand Most par
ents want their children to have az
education, and if your father see:
conditions in the right light he ough
10 encourage you in gong to school
As to the boys, there is no reason il
the world why you, at your age of Is
should think about then.

Late spring passed into summer

the sheen come back into my hair ana
a richer gold creep into it, as result
of the sun and air and my improved
health My skin took on again, the
pearly whiteness il normally pos

of the winter.

Aunt Harriet said one afternoon.
You're quite beautiful now. You can

After that, you'll grow old rapidly
Your fragile sort always does. That S

Harriet had come out, after much per

the guest room as nice as possible by
dressing it up with the things brought
from the city apartment, and | hired
a woman from the village to do most
of the work But she was a worse
cook than l. and Aunt Harriet, after
a Saturday and Sunday of polite bore

and impolite by Monday morning.

We spent great many lovely lazy
days together. Yet even Media was
not above gossiping
We were talking of Shirley's elope-
ment, and Media said:
"Of course they won't be happy.
They will for while. l believe she
was fond of him. Shirley's a sweet
little thing at heart. But after all he
is from one world and she another"
He's from better world than she, "
l protested.
Maybe. But she was brought up
to take for granted a lot OF little un-
| important things that money and GER
tain kinds of people can give. He
can't give her that, though her father
may supply the money and her fam
| ily's position make them accepted
everywhere. She'll be dropped little
| by little. Then she'll be unhappy and
divorce him. 1t always happens that
way"

BIRDS KILL MANY INSECTS

Mobilization of the wild birds, an
army Of the air that allies itself with
man to fight crop pests, nearly al
ways follows the presence of large
numbers of insects that prey upon
growing plants. Their aid instamping
out the menace is almostincalculable
says the Biological Survey, United
States Department of Agriculture, in
Yearbook Separate, Farm Help
From the Birds" Some illustrations
of what the birds have done are cited
BY the department, as follows:
On one Utah farm infested by the
alfalfa weevil, English sparrows alone
in one season fed to their young, it
lis estimated, 100000 Of the pests,
makingthe m about onethird of the
diet of the growing birds. Sixty-six
kinds of birds feed on the cotton
boil weevil, the greatest feathered
enemy of this pest being the orchid
oriole. A single stomach of this kind
of bird contained, upon examination,
Al boil weevils. The green bug or
wheat aphis also-but let the depart
ment tell the story:
"On a 200-acre farm in North Car
olina, where wheat, rye and oats
were severely attacked by green bugs
it was found that the birds were very
effective in destroying the pests. The
outbreak was at is height during the
migration season of such birds as the
goldfnch and the vesper and chip
ping sparows, which with other spe-
cies on the farm numbered more
than 5000 individuals. It was found
that these birds were destroying
green bugs at the rate of nearly J.
100000 a day, aadon days when ad-
ditional flocks of migrants were pres
ent this destruction was doubled.
During the season such numbers of
