Dear Miss White, l have been
reading your very helpful column
and am only one of the many who
would like your advice.
have been going with young
man for over year and we have
just returned from a months west
ern trip. Had very wonderful
time, but now since returning we
seem to be drifting apart. We have
never been engaged, just had an
understanding.
A week ago ] was to have a date
at a p. M, meeting him in his city,
which is 80 miles from here. nv
home. He had been on party and
was still somewhat under the in
fluence of liquor, which is an un-
common occurrence. Understand,
do not object to drink now and
then, but he was just plain "plas-
tered" to use the slang, and there
fore not at home. | called again at
8 and he was not there. so his room
mate, who is very nice young man,
was there and / invited him to es-
cort me to the dance, which he did,
breaking date in order to do so.
In the meantime, and before leav-
ing, he met my friend and explained
that he was taking me as he was not
at home. My friend Immediately
got date with his roommate's girl
friend and came to the dance. Az
ter the first dance we met and a very
disturbing scene took place. By the
way, my friend was still intoxicated.
tried to enjoy the evening as
best could, then stayed in the city
with my girl friend. The next after
noon | was to have date (previous-
ly planned), so kept my part, meet
ing him at his rooming house. His
boy friend was there wanting him to
go swimming, and / chose show,
not wishing to leave my girl friend
and her friend. So he told me to
go on. which did.
I have not seen him since and am
wondering vwhat to do. | believe he
is angry because | went with the
other fellow. I'll watch for your
advice and will sign,
JUST BLUE.
If / understand the situation II
seems to me that you made a mistake
when you let the young man think
that you were willing to have any.
, thing more to do with him after he
had failed to keep date with you
because he was drunk. 1t seems to
me that you lowered yourself by
showing that you would go with such
a boy. I should think that the only
self-respecting way to treat him was
to have absolutely nothing more e
do with him unless he came to you
and begged your pardon in such 8
way that you were convinced that
he was really sorry and ashamed Of
himself and would do all he coulC
! to square himself with you in the
future. Do you think it was quit,
fair to make his friend break dat,
in order to get you to the party
Don't you think that was rather sci
| fish? There's one more thing tina
seems queer to me. How does j
happen that you called for the youni
man at his rooming place? Tha
certainly must cheaper you in hi
opinion. If you thought AS much O.
yourself as you ought to, and if h,
thought as much of you as any cir

things.
Undecided, 1t seems to me there's
no question at all about which one
you should take. II the first boy is
occasionally indifferent now you can
be sure he will be much more so
when you are married and he is sure
of you and doesn't have to exert
himself to get you. Never marry an
indifferent man. Take somebody who
loves you enough and wants you
enough to hustle around to try to
win you and who is also such a good
pal that you feel sure you and he
will keep right on being good pals
after you are married. If Number
One is already tired of going places
with you it's pretty certain that you
and he could never be real chums.
Mary: II is very important that
you should see your sweetheart and
have an understanding. Do you
know anyone in his town to whom
you could write and enclose letter
to him, asking your acquaintance to
deliver the letter personally and
secretly? You would have to be alb
solutely sure that the letter would
be delivered to him privately and
personally. If you cannot manage
in this way, l suggest that you go to
his town and stay at the hotel. Keep
your presence there secret. Call
the young man up and ask him to
come down to the hotel and see you,
but not to let anyone know that you
are there. If he has already gone
back to college, you can write him
there, putting your return address ON
the envelope so that you will get the
letter in case it isn't delivered. AL
ways put your return address on a
letter. Try some or all of these
plans and then write me. Thank you
for your good wishes for me. I'm
awfully sorry about your unhappi-
ness. l do want you to be happy.
| When you see your sweetheart tell
him the whole story and don't forget
to tell him how much he means to
you.

c. r. T.; Brushing the hair faith
fully for five minutes every morning
am night is the surest way to give
it luster. If the hair and scalp
arc dry put little olive oil or vase
line on the scalp before brushing.
Every two weeks is not too often.
In no event let it go beyond three
weeks without washing.
d. NJ. T.: No, the regular cold
bath in the morning isn't sufficient
to keep you clean and healthy. At
least twice week hot bath should
be taken. Three times a week is
preferable. Lather the body with
soap and rub with coarse wash
cloth or scrub with a flesh brush.
After the hot bath, apply cold water,
and follow with a vigorous rubbing.
Mrs. H. T. D.: For Strengthen
ing the abdominal muscles, the
following exercises are valuable /:
Lie on the floor, on your back, with
hands on hips. Stiffen the knees,
and raise the legs to right angles
with the body. Next, bend the body
forward, until the finger tips touch
the floor. Stair climbing will de-
velop abdominal muscles-and all
trunk bending exercises.

 Asked his recipe for How to Keep Young.' he answered sharp ly.
 Tt would require two hours to answer this question: but he add cd later:
 "The kind of person you are depends upon your forebears for generations back, just like a plant"
 To an inquiry whether he thought modern Americans were drifting away from religion, he said:

 The money was sent by Fred erick and Nelson. leading Seattle merchandise firm. and the Cana dian Pacific Railway Company. With the money from the Seattle firm came a letter of encourage ment and of appreciation for the trade which the company carries on with Alaskans.
 These contributions boost the total raised by the Membership and Finance Committee consider ably nearer the quota set by the group at the beginning of the drive for funds for 1928. l.. Kean. committee member. said requests for donations had been sent Sears Roebuck and Company and Mont Romery-Ward. but nothing has been heard from them yet.
 Motor to Juneau
 One of the highlights of the meeting today was a communica- ton from E. F. Peroulik of Wag- ner. South Dakota. MT Peroulik asserted his intentions of coming 10 Alaska this summer. and of motoring through.
 He desired to know how the roads were north of Seattle. whether he would be able to motor through 10 Juneau. making good time, if he conld catch a boat from Juneau to Seward dur ing the month of June. if the roads were well marked. and if one could make boat connections from here to Skagway.

 Morris to Build
 L. F. Morris agreed. MT Wander Leest declared, to construct the bath house free of charge if the Chamber would furnish material. Mr. Wander Leest asserted this offer saved the Chamber one.half the amount of construction 1t would otherwise have had to pay had il decided 10 build and pay all costs.
 Among the communication re. eeived was a letter from Dan Sutherland, Delegate to Congress, saying:
 MT Flory of the Forest Sery- ice. and MT. Bowers and MT. Vim of the Fisheries Bureau submitted convincing data to the Board of Engineers. It will. of course. be impossible, as you say, to secure the appropriation for the work this year. The project will have to take its regular course and no action could be obtained in Con eress until a favorable report and recommendations has been re ceived from the Army Engineers. .
 Yacht Race Progress
 Harry Watson and Dr. H. C. DeVighne were named by M. 5. Whittier chairman of the capi- tai 10 Capital Yacht Race com mittee of the Chamber, as judges, the third judge to be selected by the Olympia Chamber of Com meree.
 Capt l.. w. Perkins, w. & Pull len, Brice Howard. W. l.. Coates, ]. E. Pegues and E. c. Guerin were named as timers. Prizes from the Juneau Chamber were announced by Mr Whittier. The first prize in the boats ranging from 25 to 45 feet in length will be one hundred dollars worth of Alaska gold nuggets, while first prize in the boats from 45 to @ feet. will be a marine view paint ing, by Sidney Lawrence, valued at $50.
 Firms wishing to donate fur ther prizes for the yacht race should get in touch with this com mittee, Mir. Whittier said. Local dry dock men do not seem to be enthusiastic about the construction, by them, of ma rine ways" G. E. Rice of the Lo- cal Industries Committee, report ed. "They do not care to put up the money for such construction, as they estimate the construction of the ways alone will cost S20,- GOO while the entire buildings and

 Petersburg Man Speaks l.. ] lsraelson of Petersburg, guest of the Chamber today, who is here Investigating eondi- tions for the construction of ma rine ways. declared construction of the entire ways would cost l considerably less than s50,000. He added the location was good here for such construction but he had reached no definite decision on the matter yet.
 Remarking on the prospects of regular small boat service this summer to the Chatham Straits and Seymour Canal districts, c. T. Garner said such service would be not only a fine help to can neries and camps located in those sections, but would be an aid to merchants and other business men of Juneau. E. B. Dudden, owner of the Virginia ". expects to be able to give the above named districts service beginning this spring, MT. Gardner said The Executive Committee re- port recommended the Chamber ldonate S20 to the Firemen's Ball i fund, and the motion was made and carrled The committee will meet in the future on Thursdays , instead of Tuesdays. The report also said several requests had been received for picture cards of the Territory.

He asked a committee from the Chamber be appointed to get in touch with the Forestry Serv- ice to discuss the features of the question. The matter was re- ferred to the Civic Improvements Committee.
 Irving Nick. Reed, of the Alas ka Game Commission suggested the Commercial Chambers of the various towns in Alaska organize so that more influence may be exerted by the Territory in secur- ing Congressional Legislation or in accomplishing other ends.
 People in Alaska usually have the idea of making money here and then going outside and To- cate; the interior is that way D said MT. Reed 'I am impressed by the spermanence of Juneau, and the people down here, with diff ferent altitude, have a fine chance for leadership"
