Dear Mrs Thompson: I am a girl IT years old. I have been going with a young man for two years and I am engaged to be married a year from now. I will then be of age, will I not?
 My folks do not object to my going with him, but they will not consent to my marriage to him. They think I should never marry. But l love this man so dearly that I feel can not live without him. Should I mar ry without their consent?
 Please advise me as I am very un- happy without him. G. D. N-
 Yes. you will be of age when you are IS. Of couse I approve of mar riage when there is love and no real reason to prevent Give yourself time to be sure that you love will en- dure, and then if you still care for him, marry in spite of the disappro- val of your parents. If, however. they . have a good season. to object to that particular man, give heed to what they say. Do not take so important a step blindly, and if you have mis- sivings by all means hesitate until you can make up your mind with assurance.
 Dear Mrs Thompson: Will you please tell me what,a girl should have in her hope chest when she marries? Just the things she really needs.
 BROWN EYES.
 The requirements of a hope chest are flexible and should be adapted to ones particular needs and re- sources I would advise you to ac- cunulate table linen, towels, bed lin en, underwear, house dresses. aprons and anything else you consider suit able for yourself and the furnishing of your house.
 You will not regret the effort you have made to get ahead. But on the other hand I would not advise you to plan an elaborate chest if your in come is meager.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of IS. have been going with a young man five years my junior, but who really seems older. I enjoy his company as much if not more than some of my other boy friends

Peter B. kyne is mean old
thing for getting up such a movie.
He comes right out and shows the
men just what rummies they are
for being so easy with their wives.
The idea of the play is that
women have their way with their
husbands too much, whether they
are rich or poor. In the matter of
wives all men are brothers under
the skin.
Newt Craddock, a shipping
clerk, and Mile can't get along

is witness to the domestic revolt
of his boss. He goes home and

of the films, will live after the
camera has quit its focus on Mary.
The new Tess Of the Storm
Country" is the greatest work of
the worlds most popular figure.
Mary's getting too old to play lit
tie girl parts any more-you've
heard that said time and again.
Well, it isn't so, If you saw her
eight years ago as Tess and see
her today as the new Tess, you'll
know that it isn't so. Mary seems
to have found the fountain that
Ponce de Leon sought in vain.
Thousands doubted that Babe
Ruth would hit 20 homers last year
and that Exterminator would win

In eight years everything in the
movies has changed except Mary
Pickford. Her 1922 edition of Tess
Of the Storm Country" proves that.
The 1914 edition was made direct
from the novel, the cameraman act
ing as the director That picture
lifted Mary to the heights from
which she has ever since shone as
the one bright star to all the ma
tons Of the earth.
AS pictures went in those days,
that one was a masterpiece, but the
art of photoplay making has ad-
vanced in leaps and bounds until
the 1914 picture seemed technically
an insignificant thing.
The personal significance was
never lost. Mary Pickford loved
Tess. In her heart Mary and Tess
are much the same person. AS the
world went on it left Tess behind,
like some poor little cousin in rags.
Mary has gone back to present Tess

COST PLUS IS
RETURNING TO
BUILDING GAME

BIZ ]. C. ROYLE.
Copyright. 1922, by The Argus.)

Copyright. lSZZ, by the Afgue.J
New York, Nov. 1S.-The old war
time cost plus basis Of operation is
coming back into the building in
dustry OF the United States.
Such uncertainty exists as to
building costs and probable prices
for materials that contractors in
many sections are demanding that
big Jobs be constructed on a basis
Of actual cost with q guaranteed
profit to themselves instead Of max
ing firm bid on the work.
The uncertainty Of delivery Of
materials has been factor in pro-
ducing this situation but the big
gamble from the contractors view
point is in the cost of labor. Will
son Compton, secretary-manager Of
the National Lumber Manufactur-
ers' association. declared today
that labor costs in building trades
six months. Fifteen dollars a day for
six mnths. Fifteen dollars day for
masOns, bricklayers and plasterers
is quite common, he declared. In
this city as high as $50 day has
been paid to skilled artisans in the
building trades.
Contractors, however, would not
object to bidding on construction
work even at those figures II they
could be sure of a labor supply.
Samuel Donnelly, secretary of the
Building Trades Employers asso-
citation, stated today that COMPETE
ton had reached a point where
speculative builders were kidnap-
ing mechanics.
Mechanics Pay is Big.
Masons and plasterers are re-
ceiving $40 day in New York
under the union scale, Donnelly
said, and many established builders
will pay no more, but contractors
! who have rushed in on the boom
period are offering s12 a day and
overtime in order to rush contracts
to completion while 'the going is
good. Some of these mechanics are
making $50 to 500 week.
Mechanics sometimes change
their Jobs two or three times a
week, Donnelly added. "Contrac-
tors motor up to buildings, offer
the men they want a higher wage
and the mechanic rolls up to his
new job about noon in limousine D."
I, What these high priced mechan-
les are doing with their money is a
question but clothiers say they are
not buying silk shirts and gaudy
raiment. The call for high priced
clothing is coming from other
sources.
Turkeys are plentiful as Thanks
giving approaches and in general
prices for the holiday birds are far
under those Of last year. Reindeer
herds in Alaska have outgrown
local consumption and the surplus
! is being shipped to the eastern sea-
board where wider market is
forecast for this meat, especially
| for the holidays.
Steel Production Grows.
Steel production is today increas-
ing steadily. Buying by the rail-
roads is proceedings unchecked al
though there are fewer freight cars
needing repairs today than at any
time since March, 1921. The Bur
lfngton route is in the market for
70 new locomotives and the Amer
lean Locomotive company, the Lima
Locomotive company and the Bald
win company have orders on their
/. books aggregating well toward
500, 900. The St. Paul road is
expected to place orders for 100
engines shortly. Many roads are
buying 100 pound rails to accommo-
, date the heavier weight of the new

DRAMATIC GROUP Is

scented MIR. Bob" in the Washing

derived from the play will be used
