Doris Blake's ANSWERS
To Problems of Love

my senior. This fellow once asked
my girl friend to go out with him.
but she refused. Since then he
doesn't talk to her. He meets me
occasionally and takes me home. l
went out with him once and to my
opinion l think he is simply Won
derful. He has asked me to go
with him again, and i refused be-
cause l thought IL wasn't proper
for me. being that he first. asked
my friend. When I tell him about
ii he gets sore and tells me not to
talk about her. He says that he
doesn't like her. The only reason
| see for her refusing him Is be-
cause she is educated and he Is not.
He is a plain, ordinary working
boy. My mother met him and she
approves of him. He asked me to
go with him few times and see

I'd let him know some other time.

person with whom she is a friend
by the color of the stone? II II is
true. will you tell me what the

REVISED ELECTRIC
 LIGHTING CHARGES
Allow for Possible Slight Decrease for Many Business iirms-Rcsi-
 dence Charges Unchanged.

Feeling that the method of figuring minimum rate, on the number of lights In house that were hooked up for nse, regardless as to whether or not they were being used, was not equitable. the Connecticut Light and Power company has revised its method of determining the charge to he customer.
 Under the new rate the company will figure only s5 per cent Of the total equipment in lighting fixtures, counting each unused but nnsealed socket as o5 watts, In the list Of appliances such as coffee grinders, meat choppers. etc, only 5o per cent Of the connected load will be figured, Based on the company's present records this may result in a reduc- ton of something like 1 5 per cent to the majority Of business electric light users.
 No reductions are offered 10 resi- dences as the minimum rate there is figured on the floor space and not on the equipment. This means that householder with five rooms and using only one or two lights will have to pay for the light used, in addition to the minimum rate figured on a floor space of the entire five rooms.

Columbus, O. Feb. 1o.-The "apa- thetic citizen' and the lethargic public official' are two of the outstanding difficulties standing in the way of bet ter enforcement of prohibition laws Major Roy A.

PLUS Al. ELECTED
 AFTER l4 BALLOTS
ConclaYe Was really Divided Into
 Three Chief Periods

Rome, Feb. 1o.-(Ry the Associated Press) revelations con corning the conclave which elected Pope Plus NJ are coming 10 light. | The concave might be considered to have been divided into three per liods. During the first, Cardinals Gas parri and Merry del Val received the most votes, although far from the two thirds required. and the rest were dis tributed among Cardinals Ratti Maffi, Tacci and Luald.
 The Second Period Tn the second period Cardinal La Fountaine replaced Merry del Val while the votes given first to Gasparri were divided among Ratti. Maffi and Lualdi all, however. being still far from the necessary two thirds. During the third period both Cardinals Maff1 and Lualdi recommended the candi- dature of Ratti, most of the votes that had previously gone to La Fontaine were turned to him.
 Chosen on 14th Ballot
 Finally on the fourteenth ballot, which followed the four daily ballots, Cardinal Ratti was chosen almost unanimously. Cardinals Mercier, Vico, Kakowsky Scapinelli di Leguigno, Lualdi and Gasquet being among his |more noted electors. Merry del Val also voted for the new Pope who although reluctant to accept the responsibility was won over by Cardinal Lualdi.
 Cardinal Lualdi is from Lombardy and, like the present Pope, his ap pointment as archbishop of Palermo by Plus X created a great sensation; he is the first northerner to be sen to such an important post.
 False Report
 The false report circulated at the time of the election that Cardinal Tacci had been chosen arose from the fact that he was i'll. His paleness was construed by attendants as due to emotion at his election and they spread the false report.
 Pope XI has been urged to give de cisions on several pending matters. but has decided to postpone the settle ment of all important questions until after his coronation. It is believed however that he will make no change concerning the next consistory, which probably will meet in April or May. It is expected the new Cardinals will be created according to the decisions all ready reached by the late Pope Bene- dict XV, including Monsignor Bon zano, apostolic delegate to Washing ton and two from France, besides others whom the present Pontiff may a d5
