Pete Nordquist, one of North
forks most popular guides and
hunters, owes his life to the fact

the weather. Realizing that he

Advice to the
Loveiorll
By Beatrice Fairfax.
Will He Propose ?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAlRtAA:
l am nineteen. l met certain
young man over a ycGrago.
I liked him very much from the
start. We have been keeping steady
company for year, thought l never
allowed myself to think of it as keep
ing company" But really and truly
love him, and his actions and attcn-
tons give me cause to think that he
loves me, though / an loath to take
anything for granted.
My two former chumS have been
good enough to advertise the fact
that we are n lot together, hence !
am minus my men friends. Also, my
family are in huff" because ] am
dcvoting my time exclusively TO him.
especially rs he has not spoken OF
anything serious.
Please advise Inc what to do. Shall
| pluck up courage and ask him his
Intentions Or shall | let matters
take their course? l would hate TO
wait too long, then learn he doesn't
care and find myself void Of all
chances to make young men friends.
ANXIOUS.
Don't ask his intentions or you
may sacrifice his friendship, altogcth
or. Your parents are right in think
ing you should not give up all your
time to one man who has not asked
you to be his wife.
Try to interest the young men you
used to 20 about with. Ask them
to call. Assure them if they inquire.
that you and the young man are just
good friends. Invite young people
you know to your home for little in
formal parties. Try in every tactfuI
way to 20 about once more with
your old "crowd" of friends, both girls
and boys.
A little competition won't hurt the
friendship this Young man feels for
you and may spur him on to greater
interest.

FOXY CRANDPA'S STORIES
Why Don Surprised Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was going TO camp. You
know Elizabeth is a little friend OF
Bunny's, Bobby'S and mine, so natur'
ally the morning she left with the
counScllors and girls of her camp, we
went to the train to see her off.
Elizabeth with her cantccn Slung
over her shoulder went through the
gate at Grand Central Station IN
New York to get on the White Noun
tain Express, Gld the last thing she
said was:
Don't forget to come up to sec
me. Foxy Grandpa"
So few weeks after that Bunny,
Bobby and l thought we would 20
off in the car for the weekend. We
thought of Atlantic City and the
AdirOndacks and several places, when
suddenly Bobby cried:
Lets go up to see Elizabeth.
Fine" said ]. That's exactly
where we'll go. I'll look up the route
in the Blue Book tonight. That
will be a beautiful trip up through
the White Mountains"
So, that very next weekend We
started by motor and drove up into
New Hampshire TO a beautiful lake
where Elizabcth's camp was.
You can imagine the excitement
there was when she saw Us. She
came running down from her tent
10 greet us. Several other girls came
down with her and after they had all
been introduced, Bobby appeared very
nervous and asked if we had to be
introduced to all Of the girls Bunny
winkCd at me.
Well. at any rate, VIC had lunch
with Elizabeth and all the girls. Al.
though Bobby said that fifty girls
were an awful lot for fellow TO sit
down at table with, down in my
heart, ! really think he had good
time. And as for Bunny, he never
had better time. He didn't OBJ.
jcct TO being the center Of attraction
at all.
After lunch, Elizabeth suggested
that we so for horseback ride and
then come back for n swim.
So off VIC started TO the stables.
Elizabeth is a very good rider for 2
little girl, so the man in charge OF
the horses said:
I'm going to give you n new horse
today, Miss Elizabeth. He just came
from a riding school in New York,
and | think you will like him."
Elizabeth got up on her horse and
rode him around in front of the
