Fears Girls Love

DEAR MISS LEE: 1 went with a girl
for about five months. I love her with all
my heart. She told me that she liked me.
I quit going with her about six weeks ago.
She sent me two letters asking what was the
matter. 1 answered one letter, but not the
other.
The reason I quit going with her is that I
cannot go with her and do by best for my
future. Can you tell me what to doy
A HAIR.
If all men felt the way you do. we
should have a most unbalanced world,
with the unmarried, successful men
on n side and the married, unsuc-
cessful ones on the other. Fortu-
nately. love usually is an inspira-
ton.
Can you not strike a balance? Don't
go to see the girl so often that it
interferes with your work. Explain
10 her why you can come only once
a week, or once every other week, as
the case may be. And do not send
her gifts you can not afford.

Refuses to Write

DEAR MISS LEE: I have known a
young man eight years and kept company
with him three years. He always seemed 10
think a lot of me. When he was called into
service we wrote to each other. All at
once his letters stopped.
Now he Is home again. l met him on the
street and he always seems glad TO see me.
So I sent him word l wanted TO talk with
him, as I would like to know why he
stopped writing to me. He has refused an
answer. Should 1 continue to speak to
him when 1 see him or pass on2

Heart of a Child

DEAR MARTHA LEE I am IL and I
like a boy who Is IA. He goes past our
house every night. He used to speak to me,
but now he won't even look at me. He
likes one OF my friends. but she does not
like him. Please tell me what I can do to
make up with him. BABE
Babe, if you were about six years
older, you might have reason TO worry.
But as It is. don't begin bothering
about winning boys affections until
you have TO. Speak to this boy, just
TO show you harbor no Ill feelings.

another. I wonder whether a bit of
vanity enters into the question;
whether, as you become friendly with
the new boy, the old one gives you
less attention and so becomes an OBJ
ject for your dislike. Think this over
and then do o be self-conscious
when one boy stops being quite so at
tentive.

STATE HONORS
KENTUCKY BARD
IN DEDICATION
Old Home Where Song Was
Written Is Rebuilt and,
Repaired.
BY DOROTHY STANHOPE
Times Staff Correspondent

CAMP KNOX, KY. July Tt is
estimated 10000 people went to Bards-
town on the fourth to attend the
dedication Of the beautiful old estate
Federal HIP as MY Old Kentucky
Home
It was there Stephen Foster re-
ceived the inspiration for the song of
that name, now translated into many
tongues, and sung the world over.
The inspiration for it came while
he was on a visit to Judge John
Rowan, whose home it was.
Foster was born in Pittsburgh. His
native city sent a Representative
delegation to join with Kentucky in
the celebration.
Each Of the prominent Pittsburgh.
ers made an interesting address, and
each bore witness to the fact the sun
shines bright on the old Kentucky
shore.

Joe" Uncle Ned" "Massa's in the
Cold, Cold Ground: Nelly Was a
Lady" "Camptown Races" "Old Dog
Tray'-one might go on with the list
until the had included all of the
plaIntive negro melodies that have
come down from pre-war days His
was a most prolific pen; his was a
meIodious mind. eMapy of those pres
ent could go into the old chests in
their attics and bring out musty vol
umes Of music, played and sung to
their mothers, in which the name of
Stephen Foster occurs repeatedly.
And on other old sheets "E. P. Chris
Old Kentucky Home" and many of
the other melodies.
Most Of the songs were introduced
through the Christy Minstrels. Fos-
ter thought the music would sell bet
ter If it had Christy's name as COM
poser, but when he saw the great
popularity acquired by My Old Ken
lucky Home" and other of his songs
he arranged to claim them as his own.
The estate was brought last year
from the heirs Of Judge John Rowan.
one Of the outstanding figures in
early Kentucky history.
The stately-old mansion is on a hill
in the midst of 300 acres and is
surrounded by massive oaks. 1t was
not hard for the dreamer to close his
eyes and, in place of the progressive
men and women gathered there, to
people the lawn with the figure of
days now long gone.
One OF the first things the commits
sion did was to pipe in city water.
n order that no visitor should run the
chance Of drinking from contaminated
sources. The plastering was all gone
over and the bricks reprinted. The
house was repapered throughout in
the patterns OF three-quarters of a
century ago. The furniture has been
in the house always; it has all been
done over. The net curtains and bed
spreads were made in Berea College,
by mountain girls.
After repairs and the furniture had
been looked after a terrific storm
came and carried off the roof. landing
1t in fragments in nearby trees. The
same storm tore down some Of the
fine old trees.
But that Is all over and on Foster S
birthday, the home was ready and the
Governor received it for the State.
