BY Beatrice Fairfax.

There comes time in the life Of
every normal young man when the
one and only question that matters
is: Have / a chance to win heT?
The following letter from Jack
reveals absorbed interest in This
quest of the Golden Girl.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
II have been in love for year
but have made no progress. first
met her at a public dance and drove
her and her girl friends home.
During the autumn she didn't 60
to dances and / was unable TO meet
her for four months. During this
period / called her up quite a number
of times and tried to make a date,
but without success.
81 then started writing her letters
ardent letters. Each letter was more
ardent than the one before. And
with each letter l sent poetry / had
written about her.
THE first time I met her after
had written her these letters, she
blushed profusely. 1 again drove her
home.
Due to my previous unsuccessful
attempts, l didn't try TO make any
engagements, although I believe now
/ should have as / found she had
given up going round with the man
she had been going with steadily.
Since then she has fixed it up with
him.
when she goes about with one
young man she doesn't go with any
others--her mother doesn't allow it.
OF course, she agrees with her mother
Her outstanding trait is loyalty--very
clannish.
During this same period ] sent her
roses, for which she thanked me. On
the phone once / told her l wasn't
going to bother her any more and
asked if that wouldn't please her. She
replied, That's for you to find out
She knows / am wild about her and
seems to be doing all in her power
to break my heart.
Il would have given up all hope
long ago save for a few minor incl
dents which make me think there may
be some small chance for me. She
bushes profusely and is not herself
when we are together-along with
others. never get a chance to be
alone with her.
whenever / look ut her she has
been looking at me. She told girl
friend of hers, who is also a friend of
mine, that the affair with the fellow
she's going with won't lead to any
thing.
my income in n week is ms much
as his in month and have an expen-
sive car. But she is girl to whom
money means nothing. although she is
quite poor. She is beautiful, although
some of her friends don't think so.
And she has a glorious spirit.
II told her once when we were sit
ting out n dance that l loved her and
l know she liked it.
''Shc has snubbed me several times
for no apparent reasOn. It's impos-
sible to express the state of things ac-
curately in letter. But from what |
have written, do you think | have a
chanceT JACK"
Judging from your letter. Jack,
and, of course, it's all | have to judge
by, you have a splendid fighting
chance to win the girl you love. And
judging again by your letter, she's
well worth winning. She's not going
to make your quest too easy to be in
teresting nor hold herself so cheaply
that you'll tire of her.
wouldn't take the Snubs too seri-
ouSly unless they were pointed and
rude. BY that / mean give her the
benefit of the doubt. Perhaps she
didn't intend TO snub you.
Is there any real reason why you
and she should not marry?
If not, 20 into the race to win, and
the best of success to you. i suggest
that YOU request in a manful and
straightforward letter that she can
show her mother whether you may call
at her home occasionally and meet her
parents. If she refuses ask her to give
you permission at any future time
when she may change her mind.
Advice from man who is most
successful in winning the friendship of
women is. First OF all win the chap
eron." When you receive permission
to call be especially charming to her
parents, Try to win their liking and
approval.
Make yourself all you should be to
win and hold the love of fine girl.
