Two months was TO be the limit
to thesc Letters t. Lovers"
surely" thought |, fifty letters
will exhaust the subject"
After concluding three times fifty
letters. it is pla.i- that lovers prob
lens have ne end. Each new case
is luGiviCua, anu cannot be solved by
II other.
I,ut are there no deductions to be
made from reading hundreds of let
tiers from lovers?
Gre there IL which is conspicuous.
One which nj, women have read
about. but which each m re-
fuses to apply to herself.
Il is this: Woman is o~ver-devel-
oped on her emotional side.
Whoever has followed the letters
from yemen IN this series doubtless
will agree with ma that women will
be far happier wheu they will admit
that while love may be the %splendor
of life, II is only a part of life, and
no, all of it.
Love and marriage are the normal
experiences for a woman, and as
such they provide her greatest hap
piness.
But : protest that the strain. ten
sion. nervous diseases and hysteria
which develop from love in many
a l,fe are artificial and exaggerated
ana that when w0men get back to
nature and cease TIC regard life a
misfortune when love fails their
status as human being will be raised
considerably.
Some women waste all their days
in slavery which Is unworthy. Some
waste their nights weeping for a
love which never was. Between the
two are hundreds of excitable wives
and swetthearts who whenever they
have n difference OF opinion with
their beloved. want ito end it ALL
a lot of this exaggerated emotion
which they attribute TO their w

DO YOU EVER ATTEND TRIALS,

Federal Prohibition Commissioner
Haynes, in a recent speech, said:
1T has been suggested to me that
the attitude of our public officials
might be greatly changed if more OF
the better class Of citizens were to
attend court at the time of the trials
Of bootleggers. The friends of the
law violators throng the court. The
friends of the law stay away" Do
the representative clrizens Of your
town ever attend the trials of men
arrested for violating prohibition
laws? Do YOU ever attend the
trials and thus show an interest in
good government and proper law en-
forcement? A Chicago white rib
boner recalls her visit to Federal
court when crowd of notorious boot
leggers were on trial. The court
room was packed, the front seats
largely filled with ex-saloonkeepers,
their families and friends. She
hesitated on the threshold, when the
threshold, when the judge seeing her
(and she imagines noting her white
ribbon badge) beckoned to the bailif
to make room for her in the front
row by asking one of the pro-liquor
visitors to leave. The moral in
fiuence of the presence of good men
and women cannot fail to oil the
wheels of the machinery of justice.

SOME NOTES BY THE
COUNTY NURSE

1t was LongfellOw. who said:
30 what would this old world be like,
If the children were no more?
We would dread the desert behind us,
More than the darkness before"
They surely keep the County
Nurses days from getting monoton-
Gus. In one school where she was
inspecting children, she told them
one afternoon that the next day she
would weigh and measure them, and
would they please be prepared to
take off their shoes, at which one
little chap about 6 years of age ran
up to the teacher and said, Miss
Blank, l amt 'fraid to take off my
shoes. / amt got no holes in my
stockings" 1t was in the same
school that some of the children held
meeting in the basement to COM
pare notes after the inspection was
over and the ones who had enlarged
tonsils were quite elated, while those
who had not, were not ''in it" at all
Reports from several schools are
to the effect that the Health Club
work is being enthusiastically carried
out by the children. One letter from
very interesting teacher to Miss
Thompson's Office, reads as follows:
II have received the Health Club
material and have started the chill
dren on their Health Chores.
They enjoy doing them very much
so it is a real pleasure to me-"
1t has been said, 'If you want to
do something that will last hundred
years, go plant tree. If you want
to do something that will last a
thousand years, go plant habit ir
a child, for that child will teach il
to his child who in turn will teach

let us all work together for the es-
tablishment of good health habits
in the children of today.

the floor like real artists. Ike says

Safety Record Celebrated
by Dup ont Co. Saturday

the safety record of the Barksdale
Plant was something of which the
company was very proud, and that it
was beng watched with great inter-
est, not. only at the Wilmington Office
and on the company's plants, but also
throughout the country. This was
the first time many of the men had
ever come into contact with one of
the higher officials of the company,
and it did much TO cement further
the good feeling and spirit of COOP
GRAFTON on both sides.
After Mr.. McCoys talk, the or
chestra struck up the music for the
first dance, and the floor was soon
crowded. Conspicuous among the
crowd, and adding a further note
of color to the scene, were the bright
red arm-bands designating the men
Of the Powder line crew. Carlson's
orchestra, reinforced by Gus. Pear
SON and his cornet, fairly out-did
themselves, and it was the unanimous
sentiment that no peppier music had
ever been heard in the hall.
About halfway through the pro-
gram, it was announced that r. HI.
Ross would render a solo on his
favorite instrument, the dynamite
box. sHughie, entered, clad in a
brand-new white powder uniform, and
pushing table on which were two
boxes labeled "Red Cross Extra, 40eo,
1AxS." Curiosity ran high, and as
Hughie started opening the boxes
with the regulation mallet and hard
wood spud, there was just a slight
tendency for some of the ladies to
take to the woods. When the lid
came off and disclosed what seemed
to be SO lbs. of dynamite, packed in
the orthodox manner, the uneasiness
was not relieved much; and when he
began to throw the sticks promiscu-
1usly into the crowd, things began
TO look a little fidgety. 1t was soon
discovered, however, that that ex-
plosive consisted entirely of salted
peanuts, and then any reticence in
The matter disappeared completely.
During the evening, refreshments
were served upstairs, the walters
and. kitchen operators being clad in
fresh white powder uniforms. After
the enthusiasm with which everybody
entered into the dancing, the cookies,
irop-cakes, ice cream and coffee
went right to the spot. Then there
was more dancing, with novel electric
lighting effects controlled from the
movie projection booth, and with a
most natural looking moon beaming
down on the scene.
Altogether, the party was unan-
imously admitted to be the best one
pulled off SO far, and already the Re
pairs Department boys are looking
ahead to April 80, when they expect
to wind up their two years, and
scheming as to how they car pull. off
a still better one. It is estimated
that close to 20C people, plant en-
ployes and their wives, attended the
party, and practically everyone stayed
till it was all over, which is one way
Of telling whether they had good
time or not.
