DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
/ am a young man, nineteen
years old.
l am awfully fond of a girl and
love her with al my heart. She
likes me, too. because some
friend of mine told me she asked
often about me. ! am too bash
full to talk TO her. She was wait
ing for me, in front of her home,
to talk to me when / passed
there on my way home from
school, but l didn't have the
spirit to talk to her. She is the
only one ! love.
/ called her up on the phone
to make a date, but she refused
to make a Ndate and said it is
impossible for her to go out with
boys.
How can l talk to her and
make her understand that l love
her? ANXIOUS READER.
You fail to mention in your let.
ter the age of the girl you like
so well. 1 judge, however, that
she is very young-doubtless, that
is why she is not allowed to go
about with boys.
Under the circumstances I
would. il / were you. postpone all
thoughts of love and try to win
her friendship. OF course you will
have to overcome your bashfulness
sufficiently To talk to her.
Chat with her when you have a
chance. now and then, If you only
talk about the weather. In this
way you and she should gradually
grow better acquainted and you
will not feel quite so bashfui.
Why Not Give Party?
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

Lightweight tweeds are used to
good advantage in this mode, as
are also crepes and satins.
Pictured on the left is a charm

soft silky mixture that lends itself
admirably to this type Of frock.
Worn with matching hat and ac'
cessories, a most charming cos

a charming and feminine touch.

FANCIES

The tailor turns his attention to
less sophisticated fabrics and pro.
duces a marvellous array of tail
ored gingham and chambray three,
piece suits. Dainty dimity or ha-
tiste blouses are worn with these
suits, whose skirts boast box
plaits and whose short little
jackets are unlined.
Far from the straight and mar
row type of evening wrap are
these roomyE careless affairs for
summer use. Designed to accom-
pany gowns with uneven hem
lines, they are short in front,
long in back and have wide,
voluminous sleeves. Scarf collars
of chiffon accentuate their soft
and pliable effect.
1t doesn't overlook a thing, a
pair of overall pajamas of red and
printed broadcloth. They are cut
even the regulation overall style,
even to a suspender back and the
jumper worn underneath is of
white broadcloth piped in red.

Semi.Engraved Cards

A Question of Good Form
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Please help me solve my
problem.
Is it fitting and proper for a
girl, after going with a certain
boy for a year. to accept an in

over to his house for the after
noon? Upon arriving there, we
find his family gone.
Please tell me whether it was

Please do not fail to join the crowd and be ON time. Pairing will

travel together to facilitate getting around the course. Come supplied
with all you need-some white balls that can be seen, a short pencil
and a score card. Careful scoring is very essential Cards may be
had at the Huxsol drug store.
Some Rules
The committee wishes to call players attention to a few rules
different from what are found on the back of the score cards. These
are: Balls hit over or through the fences on the left of numbers 3
and s are played as in the rough but do not take a stroke penalty
On number G, the dogsleg, a ball hit into the rough at the left of
the fairway takes a one stroke penalty each time it is so hit
Number Six
If your tee shot on No. 6 goes into the rough on the left yu. lie two
If you fail to get out of the rough on the next shot you lie four. Once
in the rough, on number s.. it is your privilege to get back to the fair
way the shortest way or shoot directly for the green, but you must
count two strokes for each one until in the fairway.
Otherwise all rules on the score card apply to this contest
Women players are kindly requested to wear as wide heels as they
can. Sharp heels make deep holes in the greens.
1t is an excellent plan to use initiated balls to improve your chance
of recovering any you may lose.
