But in the meantime, how about
the young folks They do not want
10 go on being engaged indefinitely.
They do not want to have the pre-
cious years of their youth pass sepa-
rated from one another. Nine times
out of ten they brave the battle
for bread and strike out together.
And nine times out Of ten they land
on the rocks, through debts, mis-
management, dissatisfaction, hard
luck, illness-there are a thousand
ways.
have heard young men say, III
never marry until I make certain
amount of money a week" In the
meantime they have fallen in love
with girls of manageable age. They
become engaged. And remain thus
for period of years. In the mean
time the girl is "toasting her toe"
waiting for her young gallant to
make good. He is having struggle
convincing his company that ne is a
high powered 500 week man. Now
the question is, us it right for
everyone concerned to have the long
engagement be cause of finances"
Surely poor persons have as much
right to a happy married life as
anyone else. And yet there can be
so much happiness caused by finan-
cial struggles.
The sane economical way would be
To wait. I believe each individual
must make his own choice as TO
whether he wants to take the
chance of being lean and hard from
poverty.
Dear Miss Lee-I am girl "a and nave
been engaged to young man one year
older than myself for the past three
years. We have been in love with each
other for about six years.
This young man was graduated from a
university and is now practiclng law. We
had decided to wait until he got start
before we married. And now three years
have gone by and finances haven't picked
up much. am anxious to be married. I
want a home Of my own, If it's only one
room. want children and most of all
my fiance.
The sensible thing, of course. is to walt.
But we have tried that and it hasn't
proved very profitable. We want to marry,
but both dread the idea of living closely.
spending everything we are able to earn,
on rent and food. with nothing left over
for the bank. We both love to travel.
We want to go over to Europe sometime
while we are still young. When We think
of the expenses of marriage. we decided
to think 1t over a while longer before
we set the date. What are We to do?
What is the best and wisest course?
JEANNE.
Isn't there just as much chance
that things will pick up if you are
married as they are if you are not?
You seem sensible and calculating.
And you certainly know most of the
things you want. In your case it
might be all right to take the
plunge. You realize so completely
that there are going to be lean days
and lean pocketbooks. However,
you are both young. If you want
these othe~ things worse than you
do each other, wait. Good luck my
dear. You are a sensible child.

Byrd looked obviously at the gro

OF frecklcs across her little pug nose
and her eyes were bright blue A
shining arrogance and undaunted
sense Of life gave her a challenging
air. She made Byrd think Of a prick
