wont die out of itself, if we keep on at
work and let it alone. We hate to go
to a doctOr-and we can't really af-

know how it is.
The fire grows into a holocaust.
The physician, fire-chief, is called in
a hurry; he finds the building in great
danger Of destruction, if not a total

what you mean when you say she was

to be very nice, cultured girl.
The way to be popular is to be con-
siderate and pleasant whenever in
company: Develop your personality.
Become interested in literature, plays

in an intelligent way. Do not envy

ENSEMBLES forever" the
stylists seem to insist with
out word Of protest from
US since their expressions
on the mode are so charm
ing.
From early spring ensem-
bles of wool the vogue adj
vances to late spring and all
summer models that are eX-
tremely practical for all
their daintiness.
Among the most interest
ing combinations are those
using plain and printed faiIle
or polka-dotted fabrics re-
versed-the dark ground and
light dots being used for the
coat and the light ground
with dark spots for the ov-
erblouse.
The plain satin ensemble
is also extremely chic, as
Rosalie Claire of the "Sun-
ny Days" family shows US
in the accompanying photo
graph. Palest honey-beige
satin has been used for frock
and full length coat and no
tice particularly the new col
lar with its long sailor tie of
darker beige.
Simplicity can be very
dressy if one chooses satin
for the summer ensemble.

Dear Puzzled: AS a good friend OF

Try to reason with him and show him

were not grouchy.
You do not feel that "void'' wher
he leaves-in other words you say
you do not love him. In that case
your answer should be "No." But
am inclined to think perhaps you dc
love him. The tone of your letter in
dicates more than a friendly interest
in him.
Try to keep off the time for max
ing definite decision as long a pos
sible, meanwhile getting to know hin

time passes you will know whether o,
not you care to have him as a hus
band-then will be the time to sa,

Dear Seventeen: l think your
young boy friend is very strange in
his behavior. l see no reason why YOU

friends of both sexes as you wish.
Unless you are engaged to boy, it

young men. Even if you are engaged,
there is no reason why you should not
have all kind of friends.

tells me it is wrong to see more than
one boy. Dear Seventeen, you are still
young enough not to tie yourself up
definitely with one person. There
will be plenty of time in which to do
