LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES.
COLT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT,
CARE OF THE SECRET
DRAWER

I wonder if every woman has
secrets in her Utmost heart that she
must keep z~ealously from her hus-
band. You never having been mar
ried, little Marquise, will probably
answer that when a mar and woman
are married they are one and have
no secrets from each other.
I think you are wrong, little Mar
quise. In the first place, by ne posi-
bility al two people ever be one.
Not even in the case of the Siamese
twins who lived all their lives bound
together with an inseparable bond OF
flesh was there one personality, one
individuality, one soul. Yet We poor
mortals, back somewhere in u SUBJ
consciousness, are always thinking
that when some man has said over
n nan and woman a few magic words
and performed certain in~cantations,
they will be ore.
(Which One?"
A smart woman friend asked the
other day, when I said something
like this to her, (Which one?"
Isn't it strange hat we get Snch
ideas into u heads? 1t leads to such
mixups. If at the present moment
Jack and I were one, 1 would have
no fear of telling him all about the
pearl beads and he would help me
unravel the puzzle. He would tell re
all about our baby and If it be really
true hat his friend sgd is the father
Of 1t I would perfectly understand
and love the baby all the more for,
being one, we would not only have a
single thought. but we would have
the same outlook on all things and
the same way Of solving our prob
lems.
II we were one, little Marduise, in
stead OF being frightened almost to
death when Jack caught me reading
tat perfectly innocent cable from
Karl. I would have handed It - him
for 1t would be just like having an
other pair OF my own eyes read it
and another half Of my own brain
trying TO solve the mystery. Instead
l know that 1 made myself look like
a guilty idiot in Jacks eyes. 1 could
see suspicion coming into them as I
partly tore hat cable up and now
that l cannot find It all I am almost
sure Jack found 1t, and has kept It.
mot One"
No, little Marquise, no matter how
much married a man and woman
may be they are not one. In fact,
they are not only two, but sometimes
they are as far apart in everything
except the material bonds of mar
riage as though they were at oppo-
site poles.
Jack does not dare tell me about
what he is concealing from me for
his friend Sydney and I am afraid
to tell him about the pearls, espe-

Homeless Bride

Ny Dear Martha Lee: I I'M a girl of I6
and have been married six months. MY
husband always wants to live with some
one. We are living with one of his old
swecthearts and her folks. l am not afraid
of her. She is a very nice girl. We three
go to dances. Wherever We go. she is with
us.
Ny husband is 30 and he thinks go much
of me I don't have to be worried about any
girl beating my time Can you please give
me some advice so we can live by .our-
selves? BROWN-EYED BLOND
While o have so much influence
over your husband is the time for you
to convince him you should have a
home of you own. You might use
a little truthful flattery, telling him
how proud you would be to furnish
the home he provided, and to enter
tain your friends and his in it. Re.
member, though, that you win have
to accept responsibilities far beyond
those a girl of 16 should have. You
brought that on yourself by marry
ing so young. You cannot shirk now.

Growing Up

My Dear Miss Lee: I'VE are a gang" of
girls who arc ardent sport lovers. We all
are considered attractive. although we care
nothing for fancy clothes and use no make
up. We are from Is 20 II years old. We
like boys as companions and pals. Please
advise us how to impress upon boys the fact
that we want them only as pals. not as
sweethearts. We think we are too young TO
have dates.
Do you think it is wrong for US TO Join
the boys games. such as baseball and
basketball? We think it will give us good
practice for our own team. Some of our
parents think 1t is unladylike TO care so
much for sports. How can we convince them
they sre wrong?
,. One girl has begun to use rouge and
lipstick and has a steady beau. She is only
10. She Will not listen TO reason. Shall
we let her have her own way, or renounce
her from our gangY She is very fond d
sports, but we think she ia beginning to like
boys better. The boy she goes with is not
good enough for her. How can we convince
her that If she must so with boys, she
ought to choose a better ono?
1. You sound like normal. unusu-
ally wholesome girls TO me. Your
parents should be glad you choose to
ioin the boys In sports, and so ac-
cept them as pals. instead of having
dates" with them.
2. You girls are getting to the
point when some Of the older ones

sports, and the fact hat you have
known the boys as pals, should keep
you from taking them too seriously
and letting them be your whole lives.

Miss Lee: I go with a girl my own age.

Lately she has been going with other boys.
She romise to go with me steady. but it
does not look as If she is. What would you
do If you were IN my shoes? Remember, l
love her very much.
What would you do to see how much she
loved your TENDERFOOT 3AKNY.
Sensible girl! Shes not going to
give any mar an option of her heart,
without the binding ring. OF course,
she should not have made the promise.
Are you ready to ask this girl to
be your wife? Are you in a position
to marry? If you are not, you have
no right to question her love. You
must just take your chance with her
other men friends.

Promoters Of professional base
ball cannot be criticized so severely.
The players as a whole are OF a
type slightly more advanced than
prize fighters. Perhaps they don't
get the chances that the prize fight
ers do.
When the major league club own
ers talk about doing things for the
good Of baseball and the grand old
national pastime. they should not
be censured. They are deserving
only Of sympathy.
Professional boxing can be shown
in its true light by figures from
Madison Square Garden. In the
first twelve days of 1928. the total
receipts for prize fights at the Gar
den were in excess OF S15l.OOO.
Charles Stoneham. owner OF the
Giants, spoke for baseball when he
said four extra Sunday dates at the
Polo Grounds next season would
mean 100000 for him.
Eddie Collins, veteran second
baseman OF the Chicago White Sox.
probably will perform in a New
York uniform next summer in the
New Yankee Stadium.
Having put over the deal last
night with the Boston Red sox for
Herb Pennook. 3O-year- south
paw pitcher. the Yank bosses are
now hot after Collins.
Demand OF KID Gleason for young
Waite Hoyt along with Ward and
Meusel for Collins held up the COM
pletion OF the deal for a time but
now that Pennock has been acquired
TO work regularly. Hoyt no doubt
will be sent along TO Chicago.
For Pennock the Yanks gave
Frank Chance. Norman Mcmillan.
an inflelder; George Murray. a most
promising young pitcher and Camp
Skinner a fair outfielder.
New York thinks II the worst deal !
ever made In baseball and considers !
that It gives Harry Frazee perpetual |

HIGHLETS Win
FROM FRIENDS
Schools Back to Sports
Friendship, Jump in Cage
Game
JUNIORS ALSO
COME THROUGH
BY POLLY HY.

Renewal OF athletic relations be-
tween the Wilmington Friends
School and the Wilmington High
School were ausplciously celebrated
when the sterling court representa-
tives Of the institutions olashed in
he Quakers' gym yesterday after
noon. The Highlets won by the ap-
parently one-sided count OF - 20 20.
but the game was far from what the
score would indicate. II was only
a haring squirt after the middle Of
the second half that the Cherry and
White wac able 20 hang up such
large advantage. The Friends
were on the heels OF the Highlets
at all times and Il looked az most
stages as II anything could happen
but the final half furry put the
game on ioe for the public school
representatives.
The crowd which niled the bal
cony OF the gym composed OF the
students from both schools were
given thrills galore. In the early
minutes OF the game one school
forged ahead and then the other.
Quite large number OF High School
students gathered at the gym last
evening thinking the game was
scheduled 20 he played at night.
When the Blue and White team
trotted out on the floor II was seen
that jess" Moore. the Anky CEN
ter and star point setter. was alb
sent from the lineup. This some
what put a little more encourage
msnt into the Cherry and White
five. for they too were without the
services OF two OF their best men,
Green and stirlith.
In the first minute Of play ICY"
Pyle. Friends pilot. Gagged neat
double-decker from the side. A per-
sonal foul was converted into point
er by Liohtsnstein. Another score
by the Cherry and White flash sent
them ahead.
The Friends School quintet used
short snappy passes which Travelled
with speed. These were executed
from end OF the floor TO the other.
Even when one OF the players was
on top OF the basket the incoming
player was offered the chance to
shoot.
The Quaker playing was center
ed on Pyle Who missed his mate,
Moore. The sturdy leader was al
most all-in at the last OF the game.
He had to play the whole game
alone. for all OF the scoring really
depended on him.
When hostillties ceased al the
end Of the first stsnza the score
board read 20 to l6. Only four
points gave the Wilmington repre-
sentatives the margin. II was some
hard fghting that in fact gave the
Delaware avenue lads the lead. The
shooting Of their pilot in both the
ield and foul goals was responsible. I
