TEAR MISS Fairfax:

nEAR MISS FAIRFAX,
~ I am a girl Of twenty
and am deeply in love with a
man one year my senior. We
have been going together for
about a year and a half.
"A break came between us on
account Of his mother. who dis.
likes me, for what reason I can,
not say. I have tried to 4Vln him
back in every possible way but
seemingly in vain.
I know you will say, "Try to
forget him." But that seems. al.
most impossible as there will be
no one else to take his place. He
claims he loves me. This I
really think is true, as he has
done much to prove 1t. Please
advise me what to. do.
WORRIED.
Have you tried to be very sweet
to his mother and win her aftec-
ton? Instead of showing tho
least resentment over her attitude,
go out Of your way to be thought
full and considerable. Keep the
young man on your list of good
friends. Be very sweet to him,
but give. yourself a chance aIsoy
to like other young men. En-
courage their friendship and c.
cept their invitations.
Time will show whether your
friends love for you is deep and
true enough to outwear opposi-
ton. If not you'll have 10 let
him go. You can't force his love.
You can only wait and meantime
think of him as a fri9nd.

than Of anger For. truth To tell,
your child's errors are mo more.
his fault than his Illness Is. They
are both due to some weakness
that has been handed down to.
him, or to his environment. or to
somebody's carelessness. But no
matter whose fault 1T ii, the
trouble should, Of course, be cor
rected.
Far be it from me to argue IN
favor Of allowing children to fol.
low their natural bent. They are
human, like the rest of rs, and
you know the sort Of bent most
humans have. Children need
training, but eternal scolding Is
not training. A continual out.
pour OF words becomes an, irri-
tating sound in their ears and
youngsters soon perfect them
selves In the art OF not hearing
what is being said.
Even a very young child will
listen to an occasional heart-to-
