Too Cold for Park Bench
COurting

BY Beatrice Fairfax
Too Cold for Park Bench D.
Courting G
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
"The way of the transgressor
is hard" AS I'm beginning to-
find out. Last summer s
made the acquaintance of my
first boy friend-met him in
the business house where We
both work. We like each 1
other very much and while
not really engaged, talk about
marrying some day. Now
here's my problem. My home. .
is an utter mess. It looks like
a junk shop, maybe some Of
the old stuff isn't bad, buts
the way things are piled on
top of each other is terrible. J
Every time I talk about fixing
up the place my mother
throws a fit. They are her
old things and she likes them
that way. The boy friend and
have gone on excursions, to
the movies and sat in parks
now it's too cold for the park {
bench. I've told him some
pretty thick lies about never
having him to the house, but !.
he's getting suspicious and
thinks there is something,
queer as goodness knows
there is. My married sister
who had the same trouble
with ma asks us to her house
sometimes. She suggests T.
write to you.
PUZZLED PREVARICATOR.
Let's be thankful for the
married sister, who has faced
your problem and is sympa-
thetic. Why not have her take
your mother in hand and tell
her that the way she is living
is depriving you Of your chance
Of marrying and having -
home. If your mother win not.
consent to change the junk !
shop look Of things, couldn't
you make your home with your !
sister for a little while. Or IL
neither of these suggestions is
practical, why not tell the boy
friend just how things are and
brave it out. If he really cares
he will not hold you reSpon-,s
sible for conditions which you
find impossible to change. And
many old people have the pos
session complex. Let me add o
note of warning: do not get rid
of Mas old stuff without find
ing if any of it is of value. A
girl in a similar situation dis.
posed of some old furniture
which proved to be worth q
great deal.
Father Calls Him 1.-THE BOarder''
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
There's a young man who
works in the same business house
as do. He was always very nice
and polite and one holiday I in
vited him to dinner. He ac-
cepted and made himself very
agreeable tC every one. Since
then he has hinted broadly to
come again and I've always
fallen and invited him. He
seems to enjoy himself fine but
he has never suggested any
thing in the way of return hos
pitality. I know the amount of !
his salary and as it's over $4,000 !
a year, don't you think he could.

mother-who does all the cook I

father calls him "tlle steady
boarder"- hear he treats other
girls the same way. What do
you think? =.
LULA A. B.
You ask what I think, my
dear Lula? My opinion Of the
young mans good taste is not
high. Anyone who constantly
accepts hospitality and never
makes return gesture lays him.

SurmiseS, and I can hardly
blame your father for the name
he's found for the young man
who takes and never returns.
Why not drop him2
