AND HE FELL" FOR THE orHrD - =
Dear Miss Flo:

Dear Miss Flo:
1 am very much in love with a boy
who has always lead me to believe
that ne loves me. too. 1t has always
been understood by our family and
friends that we would marry, although
we were not engaged. AT a party re-
ceAtiy l introduced one OF my girl
friends to him who is very gOOd look
ing and very popular. She made a
decided play for him, and he, much
to my disgust. made a tOol of himself
owe rher. l was neglected the rest of
the evening, and needless to say |
was furious about it. Perhaps l fool
lshly showed toe plainly how | felt
about 1t. for since that time he has
been very indifferent and disinterest-
ed, and l don't know what to do. NV
friends tell me he goes to see the 9th
er girl sometimes. love him so much
L hate to give him up. Please tell me
what to do.
C.L.
There are people in the world who
contend that if you make up your
mind to accomplish a certain thing
nothing can prevent you from earn
ing the rewards. Even regaining lost
love is included in the possibilities.
But somehow l have not much en-
thusiasm in capturing a man on this
principle. l have seen it too often
work out unsatisfactory for the
wife. She may succeed in inveigling
n inf
not win his love.
1t was rather unprincipled of your
girl friend to try to vamp your sweet
heart, but if she succeeded in such a
large measure it would be wiser for
you to step aside, for he will eventual
iy cease his attentions to you any
way. You cannot fan dead ashes into
a flame. Some other man you NAV
make love you, but not the old one
for whom you have lost the charm
you once held for him.
It's sad, of course-but that's life.
