and avoid anything that tends that
way.
Personally, I don't like either
prade or an iceberg, but | Go like
delicacy, and I feel that any physical
familiarity with men tends to rub
it off a girl. Y. E. X.
Answer:
Our ideas Of propriety have
changed so much that it would be
virtually impossible for the girl Of
today to follow her mothers code. Ii
a girl thirty years ago had appeared
in public in skirts up to her knees
and a bodice that was cut in front
and 9 in the back the police would
have taken charge of her, but such
a costume is sartorially correct now
adays. Also young men and women
discuss with perfect freedom and
without a blush, topics that in for
mer times were never mentioned In
mixed society, even by the most dar-
ing old men and women.
Other times! other manners, other
standards of propriety. But we have
the same old bodies, the same old
human nature, and it seems to me
that familiarities between the sexes
have the same dangers now that they
have always had. So close an OBJ
server, however, as the novelist VIII
liam Locke believes that familiarity
has bred contempt, and that just be-
cause kisses beween the sexes are
as common as handshakes used to
be, that they mean no more ana
raise no more thrill.
Personally l cannot accept this
theory, because if caresses and kisses
were not forbidden fruit, and did not
carry their own danger, no girl
would need a chaperon. Brothers
and sisters never have to be re-
strained from kissing each other. 1t
is only the kiss with a punch that
has takers.
Furthermore, | have observed that
no mans advocacy of famlllarlt1es
between the sexes extends to his
own womenkind. He feels that girls
should be just as affectionate as he
likes with him, but he doesn't want
his sisters paved over by other men,
nor does he relish the thought that
the woman he is going to marry mas
made her lips free to every man VINO
came along.
You cannot handle a rosebud with
out bruising it and brushing OH the

Financial Relief Measures for Farmer

1.-The economic situation in certain
wheat-growing sections of the North
west" the President said. 'is reaching
an acute stage that requires organized
cooperation on the part of the fed
eral government and local institutions
of that territory for solution. He also
said, among other things:
1T appears to me that it is essen
tial that the large business concerns
such as transportation, the more stable
banks, not only in this territory but
in adjoining states who necessarily
benefit from the prosperity of these
areas should in their own interest ex-
tend a very large measure of aid in
remedy of this situation, and that
creditors even further afield, such as
our insurance companies and others,
should cooperate fully.
at may be found to be advisable to
create new financing institutions, such
as have been organized with great sue
cess in the. livestock territory, to CO.
operate with the War Finance Cor
poration. The government cannot sup
ply banking capital nor can it organ
ize loan companies. but it can proper
Iy call upon these large business con-
Germs, the railroads, the mercantile
establishments, the agricultural supply
houses and all those large business
establishments whose welfare is i'm
mediately connected with the welfare
of the farmer"

X for the relief of the agricul-
Wv tural situation in the North
west, some TO be taken by
congress, some by the executive
branch of the government and some
by private interests, We're outlined by
President Coolidge in special mes
sage to congress. The steps include:
The refunding of the pressing past
due indebtedness of the farmers in
the territory most seriously affected.
Financing assistance through a fed
eral agency to enable wheat farmers
to make the change from single crop
system to diversified farming.
The restoration, wherever it would
be helpful, of the impaired capital of
banking institutions in the distressed
sections.
The creation by private capital of a
substantial financing corporation to as
sist in the plan of reorganization.
The extension of the time during
which the War Finance Corporation
can make loans.
Mr.. Coolidge told congress that these
were measures "by which without un-
due alarm or agitation, but neverthe-
less promptly and effectively we can
bring to bear on a serious though hap
PLY localized emergency every re-
source of the federal government and
all the assistance which the business
and farming community can. render"

Bill to Create Public Shooting Grounds

, each state for all who are willing to
cooperate. These tracts are to be
bought by the government with funds
provided by 81 federal license, to be
paid annually by those who wish to
hunt on the public shooting grounds
thus created.
These tracts will include certain por-
tons set aside which will be game
breeding grounds and refugees for all
time. There game will increase, and
thrive and so migrate all over the
country, and spill out in the surround
ing territories, its sponsors claim. On
the other portions shooting by license
paying sportsmen will be permitted at
such seasons as the state and local
game laws provide.
Such action will stop the growing
practice of draining vast tracts now
valuable as food and sport-producing
areas, because the government will
buy such land and where advisable
actually restore some drained lakes
and marshes, scores of which have
proved worthless for agriculture be-
cause of their poor SOIL
