GIRLS WANT TO MARRY

PITTsBURG, Dec. J.-Contrnry to
the accepted notion, tho majority OF
women seeking higher education in
our big universities are more anxious

recent bulletin by the University OF

in Pittsburg. and a census OF the co.

housewives than actresses and so on.

My own throat was so dry and con- stricted with fear that l found my self pressed for breath hy the time ! brought the car to a stop. I had had no word since we started, not wishing 10 delay our arrival be- cause ot stopping 10 telephone, and almost anything might have hNp- pcned during those hours.
 I suppose my face must have re. ferted my great fear for when Dicky ran down the steps almost before I had reached them, eyi- dently having been watching for us, he eXclaimod;
 Its all right, shes conscious and better. and she wants you to come up to aer right away. She's i been asking for you ever since she regsined consciousness. Says she doesn't want 10 see anybody else. Perhaps you can get out Of her what lt was that frightened her SO She won say word to any Of us. " Marion tugged at my sleeve, and l turned to see Juniors little face quiverlng with frightened grief.
 What's the matter with my Eranzie?" he demanded with a burst 0, sobs, and his father caught him up in his arms, while I took his tiny, nervously-tTistinE hands in mine. and held them firmly while talked 10 him,
 "Granzie's all right" I soothed him. and you shall see her just ss soon as Mother finds out what she wants. Granzie fell down just as you do sometimes, and hurt her self, but the doctor has made her better, and you must be a good, brave hoy, for if she knew you were crying this way 1t would make her worse"

 However my Bible has told me That one should forgive even unto seventy times seven and so I am writing to you, Leslie, to know if there Is any truth in this gossip which -- while 1t is not anything detrimental 10 your character - is but something of which my son would greatly disapproye.

 And. the Raggedys and the little ia. Captain ran 10 the cabin door and looked out to see why the boat had stopped.
 The little boat had stopped right 3. the entrance 10 a large cave and so the little Capsin said, Maybe it is cave with stone icicIes and things like that in it. Let us walk through the cave and see If 1t is a pretty sight"

 How soon can you lcayo'" she asked, wien she hal finished giving me the essential naws,
 "Wirhin tgn minutes" I prom isol and then for the first time, so urgent had soem,d the need for haste on my part, thought Of the person whose enlightenment should have been first in my thoughts.

 But 1t isn't" she said, quickly "and I won't keep you any longer oh, by the way. will you bring youl electric heating pad and one ot those tiny electric grills? We don't know what we may need here"
 Her request puzzled me bit, .ol I knew the Durkee household to bt extremely well appointed, bu' naturally the only comment l made was B promise to bring the things she had requested. Then we eX changed nasty good-bys, and a mo ment later I bade adieu to Dr Petit, noticeably restive now tha there was no more need Of his pro z fessional services.
