An Iply Valentine


Dear Miss Fairfax; | have writ
ten to you once before and thank
you so much, for your advice. Now
/ am writing you again. I'm a little
worried and don't know just how
to proceed in regard to valentine.
/ received one, an ugly one, the first
of its kind I have ever gotten. viii
admit it made me feel little badly,
having found out it was sent by a
former friend (?) and schooltmate,
and from all appearance it was in
tended not kindly.
This boy thinks don't know who
sent Vt and he is just as nice to me
as ever.
Shall / continue to treat him as
friend and never let on, or shall !
show him I'm offended?
Now, Miss Fairfax, isn't it un-
manly for boy. II, to send a IA
year-old girl an ugly valentine? /
can enjoy a joke as well as any
ore, but / have reasons to think
this wasn't meant for a joke.
This boy had no grounds what
ever for sending this. 1t wasn't
obscene. but insinuated that think
myself better than others and will
be taken down later on.
OFFENDED.
Least said, soonest mended, if l
remember correctly, is an old quo
tation which about answers your
question. Certainly ignore the ugly
valentine. You may not be abso-
lutely certain anyway who sent it.
Even though you arc, it may have
heen the boys idea of joke. eve
don't all have the same sense of
humor, YOU know And then the
third proposition: Even though you
may know who sent it, and know 1t
was meant unkindly. why not ignore
it and show the boy you really are
a little better than others because
YOU are not quarrelsome. Just ad-
nit to yourself that you have your
faults and that the point OF the val
2 entine may be one of them. Let ii
go at that. There's nothing to be
disturbed about. The boy was un-
Sentlemanly to send it and you can
teach him manners by being a lady
yourself.
Puzzled: II you are quite at home
with your hostess, it is proper to
refuse coffee. II the function Is
more or less formal. accept the cof.
fee without remark You need

TWO CLERKS

TWO CLERKS there were in the self
same store
Side by side or the busy floor
Each with ribbons and silks to sell,
But one Of them rose while the other
fell;
One moved up while all year long
The other was merely part Of the
throng.
Here's the story so oft retold
III the busy shops where life's wares
are sold
One sold silk from a crowded shelf,
And quite forgot he must sell him
self;
One was cheerful and liked his work,
The other gloomy and just clerk.
The cheerful one with his ready smile
Had people flock TO his crowded aisle: !:
They'd ask for him, and thus adver.
tise
That he was patient and also wise;
For this was his plan, to the long days
end,
To make a sale and to make a friend
1t wasn't long ere the chief found out
He had clerk being talked about:
He heard it from women but poorly
dressed,
He heard it, too, from the city's best;
And he learned it from somethnis

FAMOUS IN IRISH HISTORY

Rory OConnor bears q name IA

nameSake was king of Ireland. When
he became king of Conraught in llo6
one Of his first acts was TO put out
the eyes of one Of his brothers as a
sure means Of preventing him from
becoming rival. In 11G6 he went to
Dublin. gave the Danes. who were in
possassion. 1000 COWS. and was there
inaugurated king of all Ireland,
ceremony which was the first Irish
regal pageant Of which the city was
the scene. Rulers were placed over
various counties and provinces and
some of these were far from popular.
Tie people Of Meath deposea their
king. for which affront O'Connor re-
ceived compensation Of 240 COWS.
Henry II of England visited Ire
land in I'LL, and O'Connor'S terri
tory became disputed. but after
treaty concluded at Windsor he was
left 70 rule Connaught as before the
English invasion, and was to be head
under Henry of the kings and chiefs
