One Aim i'm
Court and

BY MARTHA LEE

When a young man pays constant
court to a young woman he is really
paving the way for his trip to the
altar even though he does not men
ton marriage. II young man is
not contemplating matrimony, he Is
wise to distribute his favors among
many fair girls instead of "just one"
There is a certain inward chivalry
in most men. This chivalry is diff
cult for a man to hurt the feelings
Of girl even though he does not
love her. When the chivalrous man
realizes a girl is in love with him,
he is reluctant to bring forth the
girls tears by telling her frankly
that he does not care for her.
OF course, the young man who
"goeS with" one girl must under
stand that he is running the girls
chances for a husband by monopo-
lizing her time If he continues to
do this, she has every right to ex-
pect a proposal.
Remember, young men readers,
that the best way to avoid diff
Guilty such as this is to demand
nothing Of girl. Call on her, but
never ask her to stop seeing her
other "beau" until you have def

desire for a wife.

Dear Worried Tim:
You were very detached young
man not to sense the growing af-
fecticn this girl had for you before
the affair had gone as far as it has
now. The best solution for you is to
tell her mother the exact situation
and then stop calling on this foolish
young woman. 1t is her mothers
place to train her daughter to have
the intelligence to be able to go on
with her life even thouQh she has
failed to get what she wants.
Since you do not love the girl and
would be unhappy married to her.
the present state of affairs is inst a
temporary opiate for the girls feel

1t is permissible for the girl to invite
