She's STAGE Struck

Dear Miss Lee: I am % years old and
have been going with a girl about twelve
months. love her and che processes
to love me. Another young man has come
between US. He is working at the same
place 7 am. She thinks she loves him be
cause some day he ia going on the stage and
she thinks that by going with him, perhaps
she will get on the stage. Please tell me
how to win her affections again. Should
take up stage work or kill this other man:
RUNNING WILD.
Your methods are n bit stringent, I
believe. A murder would hardly help
the cause. Neither would trying to
make an actor of yourself, If you have
70 histrionic ability.
No, don't believe that is necessary.
I think the girl will get over this
idea. Most girls ale stage-struck
some time before they are 20. She's
still young, isn't she? Apparently she
still likes you. Make yourself very
attractive to her, but don't act as II
she is breaking your heart.

It's Easy to Pitch
Tent; Follow Rules

frame work are solidly made; or, lack
ing a framework, that pegs are at
hand. Examine poles and make sure
they are the right length for the tent.
If wall tent is to be pitched, lay
it on the top floor, inside down, the
fly on top of it. Run the ridge pole
under the center Of the tent from end
to end, curved side next to the canvas;
at each end of the tent, at right angles
to the ridge pole and parallel to each
other, place a tent pole which is the
right length for the height of the tent.
Put the spindle in the end Of each pole
through the holes in the ridge pole,
and the eyelets in the tent and tent-fy
ridge.
Two people, one at each pole, on
signal raise the tent in position by
lifting the poles and carrying them
into place. They should stand
opposite each other, at the center of
each end of the tent floor. While the
poles are held in place, two other
people should fasten temporarily the
corner ropes of the tent and fly. Tie
the flaps into position, fasten the cor
ner rope loops in the bottom edge of
the floor, and proceed to adjust the
guy ropes.
Do not pull the tent cut Of line or
have one rope tighter than another.
Use Glove hitch for tying the ropes
to the strips. The ropes of the tent
should go under the strip for the first
turn, the fly ropes over it. By so
doing, the roof of the tent and the fly
will be kept apart, a most important
point; in fact, they should never
touch except at the ridge.
Fasten the tent to the floor by
putting the rope loops in the bottom
of the tent over long nails driven into
the edge of the tent floor at the proper
places. When all ropes are fastened
and the tent looks as it should, loosen
the bottom at each end, unite the flaps
and hold them back by fastening one
of the ropes in the bottom Of the flap
into the loop at the top corner Of the
tent wall.
