Lonely One: admire the way you
did and I'm very thankful that you
had the character and good sense
not to let him take advantage of you.
You are doing the best thing in not
seeing him. No, don't write to him.
He isn't good enough for you. Can't
you see why it is that he doesn't go
with you? 1t is simply because you
are really nice girl. He wants to
go with the other kind of girl and
that is what he is doing. He wants to
run around with girls who aren't
decent and then when he gets ready
to mary he thinks he will pick out
girl like you. He admires you and
he likes you and he doesn't intend TO
marry the kind of girl he is going
with-that is, the kind of girl who is
Just like himself. Do you think you
could trust a man like that if he
married you? Don't you see that If
he doesn't love you now more than
he loves his dissipation, he doesn't
love you enough to make a faithful
husband? He has proved to you
twice what kind of man he is. Pm
sorry, but ] fear you could never
trust him. He wants a decent girl
for wife, not because he loves her
enough to be true to her, but be-
cause he wants to be sure that he
isn't dividing his wife with some
other man. You have shown strength
and good sense in giving him up en-
tirely. wish you would try to make
more friends. If you give some
thought to it and plan how you can
meet and make friends I'm sure you
can do it.

Here's to the Women!

Women do about all the reading
and play-going that is done in Ame-
RIGA; at least they are responsible for
most of the play-going, since men
mostly go along under their influ-
ence. They keep up most of our mu-
sic, they maintain most of our paint
ing and sculpture, they are the MAIN
stay of our churches, our education
al, cultural, and social institutions,
they are the arbiters of taste and
style for both sexes and in all par
ticulars. There is not department
of spiritual activity in America that
is not substantially effeminized.

GOTERNOR HUNT AGAIN

Judging from the results OF the Arizona primary,
our neighboring state is to present Governor Hunt
with his seventh term in office
The present executive successful in obtaining
the Democratic nomination for governor which is
tamount to election This means that of the chief
obstacles in the progress of the SwngJ Johnson bill is
to be retained in office.
Regardless of the inability of Arizona and Cafor-
MIA to come to an agreement the method of Colo
rado river development, is compelled to express
surprise that the people of any political division in
America should be satisfied to elect office
seven times.
This action is contrary to the fundamental prin-
cples of American government, which seek prevent
the executive power being monopozed by any ndivid
ua An executive may be all that could be desired,
yet being human he is bound to be influenced by the
fact that he all opposition. 1t tends
give him distorted view of his Importance and
dangerous to the best interests of good government
OF course, if the people of Arizona content to
accept Governor Hunt term after term, it is not the
business of any outsiders to criticize 1t may be that
he is the best the state put forth for its highest
office. That, however, is something that is open to
discussion, only in California but in the governors
state.

WHY IS TT?

1t is sad, if not disgusting commentary upon our
ooasted respect for law and order to read of armed
guards accompanying outlaw such "Scarface Al
Capone, when he paid visit Chicago funeral par
lor to pay last tribute of his henchmen strick
en- down IN Of the gunpays that characterizes life
as 1t IS lived IN the second city of the nation.
Laymen unable to understand why those sworn
10 uphold the law should permit an armed body of
men to appear in public in direct opposition 10 the law
OF the land Newspaper reports of Capone's visit to
the funeral parlors that his carried auto
matte pistols and machine guns, badly concealed if
them IN newspapers.
There were police officers present at the funeral
parlors They not blind, and must have known
that Capones guardsmen and Others were armed such
as the retaners Of feudal lord would have been
IN the days of yore
Why stand idly by and permit such performances
as TINS to happen? The sympathy Of the country is
cult Job with all the odds against them.
Why do their superiors permit such conditions as
Capones public appearance to occur? If it is possible
to pick up some poor unfortunate whose sole crime
may be that he is out of funds why take into Gus
tody those who violating the law by the mere fact
that they appear armed in public?
The answer is that the higher ups do not wish
It, just why they do not wish it is something that any
intelligent citizen may answer for himself.
This condition does not exist solely in CHICAGO
ANY metropolitan city produce a similar occur
renee. While citizens idly wonder why there is so
much crime and few punished for their crimes the
higher ups actually encourage increase in crime
by their negligence
If newspapermen know of conditions such as those
surrounding the Capone demonstration the officers of
the law know of them also Law-abidng citizens of
Chicago and other large cities will wake up some day.
Just what IS necessary to wake them up is question
