 els this life at IT? I'm so tired of living, I do wish something would happen to change it all. It hurts me so to see my friends enjoy life and then tell me of all their adventures, while I-oh, Miss Fairfax. you ought to know how a. girl in my place feels. I'm considered good looking and have a pleasant disp position
 I'm sure that if I had a little lib- erty life would turn out to be worth living. Mother will not hear of it.. Many time I have cried myself sick for having had to refuse invitations which would have made me happy.
 "I do hope you will think of g. way which would make life more pleas ant for me, because now it's nothing but misery.
 ANXIOUS"
 My dear, you think you're being abused and deprived of your chance, and perhaps any arm-blooded, eager girl in your place would feel the same. But probably most of your trouble comes from the fact that your people love you and want to protect you from all the dangers of modern society. Possibly they do go a bit too far. Perhaps you have to miss some wi fine young folks who haven't any harm in their makeup.
 But put yourself for a moment in your parents place. Don't you think you'd take alarm at some of the things you see young folks doing to-

Although motion picture actresses are not furnishing us with much news in the matter of newer and better pie lures, they are keeping pretty busy furnishing reports and rumors and facts about such things as scandals. divorces and romantic marriages. June Caprice is responsible for the latest bit of news. She announces that she has been married for sixteen months to Harry Millarde.
 For months they have been living in their apartment in New York, but their marriage was only known to half a dozen intimate friends.
 News of a popular actress marriage is never the most agreeable news to picture enthusiasts. and for that req son the wedding of Mi1larde and June Caprice was not made public immed- lately. The bridegroom was directing pictures in the Fox studios and the bride had a contract with Pathe. A few months after the marriage Miss Caprice went to Spain with her company to produce a Castilian romance, but none of the other mem- bers of the cast knew she hads been married.

 Boys and girls nowadays are plung- ing into the things which only ma ture folks can handle and endure. Late hours. sophisticated talk. Lold and daring customs and habits are all part of youths way of doing things now. It takes mature judgment and experience to know what's dangerous and what only little absurd. Youth is so eager that it's easily to be swept along by the current. And when a group of vital, animated young peo- pie without standards and Judgment to fortiy them, begin having what they call a good time. it's for them to know where to stop.
 You can't imagine how many boys and girls hurt their health, ruin their prospects for growing and knowing, and undermine their standards as well as their prospects and constitu- tions by racing around with other boys and girls who haven't had time to find themselves"

They fear your getting entangled in crowd where the worst and widest influence may prevail What you call a little liberty might so easily grow to be license.

 I think youth ought to have pleas ure even as it craves experience. But even though it's hard to wait, can understand the careful, prudent and somewhat terrified parent who is afraid to let the nesstlings venture out where danger may turk.

Keep on trying to create beautiful poems and stories and probably when you are older you will be able to do something really good. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Please tell me if 1t is all right for me to call on my girl every night am very much in love with her and want to prove it to her, yet never having been in love before I am afraid I will overdo the thing. If 1t is not all right to call every night, how often should call?
 A. B. c.
 If you call on the girl every night you are very apt to "overdo the thing'' It is just as well not to make her too sure that you love her for a while. I would suggest that you go to see her about three times a. week. If she seems glad to have you come and apparently enjoys your company, you have everything to encourage you and can feel safe in proposing mar riage after you have gone together a few months or: a reasonable length of time.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: went with young man for seven months and he has not come back since Christmas. I am eighteen and he is nineteen. I have his ring and I would like to know if I should send it back. Please give me your advice.
 WORRIED.
 Yes, I would advise you to send back the ring. It is evident now that he does not intend to see you again. "Wonderine Widow: do not be lieve you will find happiness by mar rying the man. The situation would be dangerous for your girls and your own position would be hum1liating be- cause of the boys attitude toward you.
