ADVICE TO
LOVELORN
BY Beatrice Fairfax
Don't Cheaper Yourself

'sWhy is it considered wrong
to pick up an acquaintance"
asks Hopeful. Her question will
find an echo In the thoughts OF
many girls who respect only those
conventions that have good rea-
son to justify their existence.
"Of course" continues Hope.
full, IT would never get in a
machine with anyone did not
know. That would be taking too
big q chance.
Some men seem to think they
have the right to speak to just
any girl who comes along. ! am
not in the habit Of doing that,
but / met very nice young man
in that way. / have known him
almost a year. He calls on me
regularly every week. am be-
ginning to like him very much,
and would like to know whether
I should give up his friendship be-
cause of the way we met. thank
you very much.
Even in this unconventional
age, Hopeful, girls are particular
about making friends and ac-
ouaintannces. A girl does not
care to share her companionshlp
with a man of whom she knows
nothing. To do SO would be dan
gerous in many instances, for the
greatest bIackguards can make
themselves appear charming and
likeable and can gain girls
confidence in this way, leading,
in some instances. to swindling,
burgIaries, kidnapping and even
murder,
Then, too, 1t cheapens a girl
when it is known that any man
can meet her without an intro
duction. OF course there are ex-
ceptions to all rules. Those who
work together or travel together
year in and year out, or share
q long journey together day after
day, might exchange credentials
and become friends.
/ am glad the risky thing you
did in picking up an acquaintance
turned ont well, after all. And ]
agree with you that the habit of
speaking to people you do not
know is undesirable, while riding
with strangers is actually danger

BOqeu Man a Grim Reality to Child

year, when she became separated
from her six-year-old son. Find
ing himself alone. he made de
rectly for the traffic officer, told
him that he had lost his mother
and asked him to take him to the
police station to wait for her.
This was what she had always
told him to do il he ever got lost.
The big, friendly man readily
compiled with the child's request,
the men at the station played
with him, bought him ice cream
and showed him about the place,
marveling that he neither cried
nor showed the least signs of
nervousness at having become
separated from his mother.
It was not half an hour before
the mother appeared. inquired for
him. and without tears greeted
him with: THAT was a fine thing
to do. Sonny. You see how easily
mother found you, because you
did as you were told"
The only hard part of the adj.
venture was the getting him to
leave the station where he had
been so cordially welcomed.
The officers were warm In their
praise of the mothers wisdom and
expressed the wish that all moth
ers would instill this same conf.
dence in them. 1t would help
them UNNECESSARILY in their work,
and would lessen the chances of
your child asking directions or
help from strangers or going with
them, which, as we all know. has
resulted so sadly and tragically
in a number of cases recently.

BY Constance Cameron

A glaring headline met my eyes
recently, followed by story of a
little girl who was about to step
in front OF a rushing automobile
which she did not gee. But she
DID see a bIue-uniformed police
man hack on the walk. Terror
filled her small heart, for she had
been told that the cop would get
her. IL she did so or thus, and she
fled swiftly from the terrible fig
ure, fell before the car and was
killed.
The policeman, in a swift ges-
ture of protection, had run to her,
meaning TO snatch her out of
harms way, but this she did not
know. Only she remembered the
warnings of her mother, that IL she
didn't mind, the cop would get
her. There was no time to stop
and reason out the fact that she
had done nothing wrong and that
he couldn't possibly be after her to
punish her. So great fear had
been instilled in her small mind
and being that she paid for it with
her life, and the mother must go
on paying for her mistake in re-
grets and tears.
Cops only take people to the
police station who have done some
thing very wrong. and we knew
that our children will do nothing
which shall merit such punish
ment.
Tell them that you are sure they
will always believe in such a way
that the policemen will be glad to
help them. They will do nothing
that will cause these uniformed
men Ia he other than friendly to
them. Teach them to look %
these men for aid when they need
it. Frightening a child is a poor

A Vicious Habit
BY Lucy Lowell

Scolding. it seems to me, is n
habit. A demoralizing habit, of
course: one which stirs discord in
homes, disrupts families and de-
moralizes lives.
But a habit nevertheless: the
scold does not realize she is &C
curing 1t until, perhaps. she
finds her family and everybody
else seeing just as little of her as
they possibly can and acting as II
they wished that little were still
lass.
l say cher" you notice-and
mean it. For it IS women who
scold; something in the feminine
nature which, unless it Is under
stood and watched, lends itself to
the chronic irritation expressed
in constant fauIt-finding. cross
expression, disagreea0le manners.
Mind don't say there are no
male scolds. But those are the
exception. Ten 10 one il man
has something on his mind he
tells you about 1t and let's 1t go
at that.

CORRECT
MANNERS

EIOpement Etiquette

Dear Mrs. Beecknan:
Please answer this question. A
young lady eloped and was mar.
ried in q neighboring town. Her
mother sent out announcements
two weeks later. This young
lady has an aunt who says that
the bride should have written
first to tell her of her marriage.
The bride says that, after receiv-
ing the announcement, the aunt
should have sent best wishes to
her. The aunt could have gotten
the address from her mother, as
she Is really one Of the family.
M. X.
The last clause-'as she really
IL one OF the family''-justifies
the point of view of the aunt.
Since she Is such close mem
Der of the family, should think
that she would be hurt that the
bride did not write her a note
and tell her Of her wedding. For
one so closely connected with the
family to receive the news Of such
an important event in this formal
way does seem out Of order. When
the bride decided to tell Of her
unconventional marriage she
should have written notes telling
the news to her close relatives
and friends. Indeed, socially, It
was more important that she do
this than that she send out an
nouncements.

Passing The Salt"

T6SSAH& Inc SAIL
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am a bride, and, like most
brides, / am struggling with
questions OF a limited budget.
But I do want my table to look
nice. I am confronted with the
problem of buying salts and pep
pers for my table. It 1t neces-
sary that I have one set for
every person?
Thank you for answering this
problem. A BRIDE.
No. As a matter OF fact, it is
oftener arranged now that there
shall be one set for every two
people. That is, the set 10 placed
between alternate covers.
And one of the great advantages
Of this Is that it begins many a,
conversation among guests. Talk
ing OF the weather and passing
the salt are. the two greatest
conversation-compelling items of
social intercourse, I believe.

An Informal wedding

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Please tell me If it Is proper
for a maid of honor to wear q
dark blue suit at a small wed
ding? The bride is going to wear
a dark suit and a black hat.
UNDECIDED
Since the bride is going to wear
a suit, the maid of honor could
not choose anything more appro-
pirate than a suit. The maid OF
honor always adapts her attire
to the type worn by the bride.

NO UNDERTAKING

1t is announced from both politi-
cal camps at Washington that so
far as the leaders are concerned
this will not be a campaign of per-
sonal abuse. This is a state devout-
ly to be wished, and it is hoped that
the good intentions Of the heads of
the two great parties will be fol-
lowed out by the lesser lights on
down the line. After all political
campaigns are questions of princi-
pie rather than of personality. Per-
sons may die and eventually be for
gotten, but principles, if based on
truth, are imperishable.
1t is of course impossible to keep
the personalities of the national
candidates out of the picture. Each
of them may have qualities which
will attract to him voters who base
their suffrage on the personalities
of the candidate. There can be no
criticism of this and it is right and
proper that the qualifications of the
various candidates be weighed care
fully to see how they measure UP
for the positions to which they are

the kind of material to be used in its

that the road will go forward as at
