Bring your love problems to Jane Jordan,
who will helm YOU solve them by her an
swers in this column.
Dear Jane Jordan-For the last
two years l have been going
steady with a girl and seing her
four nights a week. We are both
10. We had occasional spats and
this led her mother to cause us
to split up temporarily. She said
she didn't mean for us to quit al
together, but Just for a month to
see if we were suited to each
other. l think she is right. Do
you?
There is a certain fellow in our
neighborhood who goes with a
girl for q while and when he
quits, he tries 10 run down her
reputation. My girl always said
she had no use for him, but three
days after we quit going together
she had date with him.
She also is dated ahead with
him for the following two weeks.
1 believe that if this girl really
cared as she said she did, it sure
ly would have been more than
three days before she had another
date.
Every one says that I am a tool
for not going out myself, but I
know that 1 wouldn't enjoy my
self with other girls, because I
would be thinking Of her Her
friends and mine say that we soon
will be together again, happier
than ever If you can make neads
or tails Of this, please reply.
MORATORIUM.
Dear Moratorium - The young
lady's mother was quite right 20 call
a moratorium to test the strength
of her daughters affection. How
ever, 1 have no doubt that the
young lady herself was quite peeved
that you we're willing to make the
experiment. intellectually, she
probably agreed with her mother
that a vacation was advisable, but
emotionally it hurt her pride for
you to give her up, even for
month.
No matter how civilized a woman
becomes, she still Lherishes a
sneaking longing for a male strong
enough to seize her in the midst of
adverse circumstances and it goes
against the grain when he stands
supinely by while she slips through
his fingers.
1t may be that she made dates
with boy whom she knows you do
not like. in fit CT pique. She hoped
it would get under YOUR skin, and
it did Therefore she is avenged
partially.
Certainly you should go out with
other girls, whether you enjoy your
self or not. How do you know that
your affection for the young lady is
more than half habit? 1t is easier
to remain with her even though you
have spatS than to make the effort
to charm somebody else Now that
you've agreed to a months mora.
forum, be a good sport and give
it fair trial.
Dear Jane Jordan-My wife and
I love each oher, but we have
constant small quarrelS. She &C
cuses me of starting all of them.
but 1 tell her that it is as much
her fault as mine, as it takes two
to make a quarrel. Am I right?
HUSBAND.
Dear HuSband-No. It takes two
to made peace, but one can make a
quarrel.
Dear Jane Jordan-How can a
woman dress to please men? What
do they like, and do you approve
Of manniSh fashions?
ANXIOUS TO KNOW.
Dear Anxious to Know-Men take
little notice of changes in fashion.
The thing they notice is whether
the woman looks intensely feminine
in her clothes. The softer the fab
RIGS woman wears. the more allur-
ing she is. Fluffy lace collars and
cuffs which add to her femininity
always are admired by men.
ManniSh fashions are comfortable
and practical, but when they are
worn they should be relieved by
decided touch of femininity if they
are to please the man. Women sue
ceed as women and not as limitations
of men. Clothes should make men
aware Of van as woman: other
wise, their emotions will not be
stirred.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am a
young widower and have been a
constant reader of your column. /
Sometimes ! have wished it was
a whole page. Here is another
suggestion. Why not run little
corner in your paper entitled
The Column for Lonely Hearts,
whereby you could give the de-
