Would you rather dance with him, even if he steps all over your feet, than with a jazz hound, who dances like an angel? Would you rather look at his homely face than gaze upon the TO- mantle countenance of a sheik? Is go- ing to the movies and having an ice cream soda with him more of a party to you than the theatre and a restau- rant supper with another man?

It is easy to find charms in the ab- sent, but it takes real love to make the society of one who is always with us, interesting and full of pep.

Are you unselfish toward him? Would you rather do the things he wants to do, or the things you want to do? Do you feel that you could be happy with him if you had to wear shabby clothes and live in an humble house, and do your own cooking and sewing and washing and scrubbipg?

least, that your love IS the eternai passion, and that the man is the Only One in the world for you,
 But you act wisely in distrusting your emotions, and in trying to ascer- tain whether you have passing fancy for a man who appeals to you, or are in love for keeps. Most girls are so in love that they arc ready to fit the garment their romance has fashioned over any youth that happens along, only too often to find out in a little while that they have tired of him, and he isn't within a million miles of being the hero of their girlish dreams.
 There is, of course, no infallible test of love, but you might check yourself up on these points, and if : you rate a 100 per cent you can safely conclude that you are in love and name the wedding day.
 First, do you prefer him to all other men?
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-03-27

Are you worried about his getting his feet wet, and whether he gets the proper food, and do you call him up after he gets home of an evening to be sure he didn't get lost on the way?
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-03-27

A husband, who is good and kind and generous, who is tender and sentimental; who is so understanding and sympathetic that he gets the Sunday dinner to save you, why, woman; you don't know what luck you are playing in, or what blessing you have, or you wouldn't talk about leaving him, no matter what he does.
 Me, I'd stick to a man who would get the Sunday dinner if he were a Brigham Young!
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-03-27

Probably your husband tells you the truth about saying that the boys put the picture in his pocket for joke. At any rate, you may be very sure that as long as he gives you all of his money he ism doing much philandering. The gold diggers have small use for men

Dear Miss Dix-I have been mar ried eleven years, and have two chill dFen; q girl ten years old, and a darling baby boy, nine months old. I have been very happy in my, married life until just now. My husband is good to me in nearly every way. He gives me all of his money, he always gets Sunday dinners to give me a rest, as we do not employ servants, and he never forgets anniversaries and holidays. But I have found a wOman's picture in his coat pocket. He denied all knowledge of it. Said somebody at the office must have put it in there for a joke, but that sounds very fishy to me. Should I for get it. or leave him? I want to be sensible and do the right thing, especial ly for my children.

SLEMP MAY BE
CHOSEN TO HEAD
COOLIDGE RACE
He Will Probably Manage
Campaign After
Convention

WASHINGTON, April II. - In
looking about for some one to lead
his campaign after the nominating
convention, President Coolidge is
understood to have fixed his glance
approvingly on G. Bascom Slemp,
his secretary.
Accordingly, vigorous campaign
is under way to make Slemp chair
man of the Republican national com
mittee at the Cleveland convention
IL June.
But at the same time, the friends
of John T. Adams, present chair
man, are organizing q fight to keep
him in command. This is n direct
protest by close friends of Harry
Daugherty and others, who do not
want complete Coolidge domination
of the party.
It has always been understood
that Adams would retire at Cleve-
land. But since the Daugherty case
came up, Adams and George D..
Lockwood, secretary of the commit
tee, have headed group which diff
fered strongly with those who
thought Daugherty ought to be fore
ed out for the good of the party.
They have not hesitated to voice
their disagreement with Lodge, Pep
per, Borah and other senators, who
demanded that Daugherty be dis
missed.
Slemp, who today seemed the most
probable Coolidge candidate for the
chairmanship, which carries with it
the responsibility of conducting the
campaign, has, proved himself ex-
tremely useful to the President and
has impressed Mr.. Coolidge by his
manner of handling people and deal
ing with the problems of his office.
Slempehas been first of all a politi-
cal secretary and the routine of the
office has not been allowed to ham
per him to any great degree. Al
though he and the President were
strangers when Slemp was named,
they have come to be very close and
Slemp is advised with, more than
any man except Frank Stearns, the
President s friend of many years.
In addition to selecting a campaign,
manager, Coolidge leaders are con
sidering carefully now the choice
of keynote" for the convention.
Two have been tried out-Senators
Pepper and Borah-and both have
been found unavailable. Pepper
made a speech which drew fire from
many within the party and Borah s
speech was far too Independent and
"lebral" to suit party chiefs. The
next candidate to be tried out will
be Secretary Htghes who will ad-
dress Republicans next Tuesday.
