Advice for
The Love|orn
Doesn't Want Him To make a
Show of Himself"
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I'm a salesman and naturally
talking is business asset.
Friends call it "the gift of
gab." Recently at a house
party I met a very quiet girl
whom I've learned to love. I'd
like to become engaged, but
she says I embarrass her.
When I go out my friends ex-
pect me to sing, and keep me
busy singing, but she says she
doesn't want me to make "a
show of myself" as she puts it.
If I give up singing and do
as she wants me, it means that
I must give up almost every
friend I have. I really love
the girl, but at the same time
I hate to give up my friends.
OLLIE.
A girl must be pretty precise
and inflexible if she objects to
a friends singing, particularly
when he must give pleasure
by it or he wouldn't be asked
to sing repeatedly. Can you
teach her to be a bit more
liberal-minded? If not, go
slowly. It's risky to take for
better or worse a partner who
puts a crimp on ones self
expression. Sometimes you can
liberalize narrow-minded peo-
pie, and sometimes it can't be
done,

CHAPTER VII

CHAPTER VII
Jim looked past Eddie.
do you want to go to the
movies with me, Sharlie?" he
asked, his eyes fixed on hers.
They were full of anger. "Or
do you want to go with this
3ellow?"
It did not take Sharlie long
to make a decision.
A trip to the movies with
Jim Barnum was simply trip
to the movies and nothing mora.
An evening with Eddie
well, she never knew what an
evening with Eddie would bring
forth. Trust Eddie to provide
excitement of some kind al
ways! Besides, she was in love
with him. Just one look at
him tonight had made her see
that more clearly than ever.
Even after what he had done
last night, she was in love with
him. He took hold of her wrist
and the touch of his fingers
thrilled her. The smell of his
cigarette stirred her.
This is Eddie Wallis, Jim.
IL had a date with him to-
night and forgot all about it,"
she said, flushing.
It was a silly lie. And she
could tell by the look in Jim's
eyes that he did not believe it.
He stood there above her on
the landing without speaking,
for a full minute.
well, I wouldn't want you to
break an engagement on ac-
count of me-" he said then.
"Good-night."
Sharlie knew that she had
hurt his pride by turning him
down for Eddie, and she was
sorry. But only for a moment.
Reckless Urge
Then the reckless, happy-go-
lucky feeling that she always
had when she was with Eddie
Wallis came breaking over her
like a sunny wave.
Lets go, boy!" she said to
him as soon as Jim had said
goodnight and had vanished
into the Barnum'S flat.
"Yea, boil" said Eddie, and
downstairs they went, their
arms linked and their cheeks
almost touching.
The vestibule door at the bot
tom of the flight was the Gate

street stood Eddie'S ramshackle
car, it's battered sides cleaning

through the vestibule door.

The moon rode along above
them as they left the city and
swung into the River Road.

turned a bend in the road and

The Beauty
Box

What goes on in the mind
comes out on the face; faces
are ever in the making. Women
who meet the difficulties and
disappointments Of life with
spirit and courage have a way
of hanging onto the bounce
and ecstasy of youth, while the
winners, the bawlers, and the
naggers collect wrinkles and
tissue gullieS, get dark rings
under their eyes, push along
with tagging step. No woman
can afford to indulge in emo
tional sprees which interfere
with the assimilation of food,
knock the central nervous Sys-
tenn for a flop, make circula-
ton sluggish and have a de-
vastating effect upon youthful
appearance.

PERSISTENCE WINS

Persistence wins. A twelve-year-
fight by organized labor, with the
United Mine Workers in the lead,
has resulted in the enactment of
an old age pension law in Indiana.
The law is not regarded as all it
might be, but it's advocates say that
it is step in the right direction.
Passing of the Indiana pension
measure shows that social and labor
laws can be enacted at this time,
despite the assertions that the de-
preston has made the adoption of
such Legislation very difficult, if not
impossible. Labor and other progress
sive legislation can be passed even
now, but it takes hard work. Here's
hoping, with the bill before them, our
representatives will see the need of
providing for our aged persons, and
that Ohio follow in the progressive
step taken by our neighboring state.

PERHAPS A LITTLE MORE
UNREST WOULD HELP

Wall Street Journal has let cat
out of the bag. It's a good-sized cat.
And the cat has yowled an important
yowl.
A report of Wall street, where the
emperors hold forth, deals with the
steel industry 1t sets forth that some
of the steel companies are consid-
ering another wage reduction.
There have been three. Another
would make four.
Others in the steel industry, how
ever, have been watching the drift
of the wind and they advise caution.
These others who are cautious ad-
wise the steel industry against cut
ting wages again. They say that the
unrest in the automobile industry
might easily be communicated to the
steel industry, and that the thing to
do is to concentrate upon stabiliZing
prices instead of again cutting
wages.
That is the direct effect of the
f1are-up in the automobile industry,
regardless of who, if anyone, organ
lied the strikes in that industry. Con-
idtions We're rotten and workers re-
sented them and struck. And their
strike has thrown a great fear into
the emperors who run the steel in
dustry and they think they'd better
not cut wages again right now, for
fear-FOR FEAR-and for no other
reason.

MORE OF WARS DOINGS

Evils arising from war plague man
kind long after the actual fighting is
over. Germany is finding that priva-
tions suffered during the World War
have stunted and weakened the bod
les of its young people. A dearth of
girls with physiques suited to be
dress models has just drawn this to
the German public's attention. The
demand for pretty girls to act as
models exceeds the supply.

mannequins' jobs than ever" the
Berlin Vorwa erts explains, "but their

blades protrude too far, or their car.

EAGLES
Urge Action on Initiated
Old Age Pension Bill

At the regular meeting of Butler
Aerie No. 4O7, Fraternal Order Of
Eagles, members of the lodge adopt
ed resolution addressed to the rep
resentatives and state senator of this
district, urging support of an initiated
old age pension bill now pending in
the lower house of the Ohio legisla-
ture at Columbus.
The resolution was drafted by Judge
A. j. Pater, chairman of the old age
pension committee of Butler Aerie,
which assisted the old age pension
conference last summer in circulat-
ing petitions for the bill in Hamilton
and vicinity. 1t sets forth that the
initiated bill has been recommended
for passage by the insurance COM
mittee of the lower house of the leg
islature following extended hearing,
the vote in committee being IL to 2,
and urges the local representative
and senator to vote for it.

and must have more than enough to
cover the bare necessities of life if
improvement is to be felt in host
of lines"
Mr.. Wrigley pointed out further
that it is the workers who put money
into circulation, and that they are the
first to feel it when "price-cutting
panic" hits an industry. He added
that he believed there are number
of concerns, even in times like these,
which might be able to increase their
workers wages and still do profitable
business.

WHAT WILL AMERICA DO
ABOUT IT?

Is America helpless in the face of
the kidnapping racket?
On the basis of facts as they stand
one would be compelled to say "yesi"
Hardly day and never week passes
without some story of actual or
threatening kidnapping for ransom.
Children are the usual victims, but
husky man of thirty-one was seiz-
ed in his wife's presence in Denver
recently and taken away. AS evidence
of the terror which this crime has
caused, his family Immediately broad
cast word that the ransom would be
paid.
The Lindbergh case is perhaps the
most distressing of all. The first
child of this couple, who doubtless
have more active well-wishers than
any other two persons of their years,
was kidnapped and murdered, and the
miscreants have never been brought
to trial. Now the second child is
threatened and word has gone round
that, for the safety of their boy, the
Lindberghs will make their home in
France.
But why France? If France can
prevent this dastardly crime-and
apparently she can and does-why
not the United States? Britain,
which does not deal in kidnapping,
either, has the advantage of being
an island, but France has not. Can
ada has a continental expanse like
ours, but the kidnapers appear to
stay on our side of the line.

not solve this problem. SHE CAN

WISE MR.. WRIGLEY

by announcing an increase in pay for

The dismissal wage" is good as
far as it goes, but it does not solve
the problem of the man displaced by
the machine. He is still out of job
and very fortunate if he can find
another one. The only real remedy
for the displacement of men by ma
chimes is shorter hours and higher
wages, to take up the unemployment
slack and increase purchasing power.
Unless this remedy advocated by or
ganized labor is adopted, men will
continue to be thrown out of work
and prosperity will be thing of the
past, never to return.

Such leadership led to wreckage in
depression, millions of wealth con-
centrated in few hands, much of it
loaned abroad; millions of American
workers left idle, no source of in
come, no source of life.
Congress thus far has merely made
gestures, twiddling with partisan
politics, playing for petty advantage,
stranger to craftsmanship.
Shorter hours or the dole puts it
mildly. The alternative will be much
worse than that unless there is NIGH

But even if there is quick action,
, shorter hours doesn't solve the prob

WAGES-let that never be forgotten.
Congressman may be interested
only in seeing men at work. Labor
is interested in seeing them at work
under JUST TERMS, and with con-
slant extension of democratic prac-
tice in industry. Labor is interested
in ending this depression in such a
manner as to prevent another.
