you? w. F. L. L. S. M.
Answer can't. Only you can
help yourself. Give up. Let go. Fill
your life with other things. It's an
absolutely senseless waste of time to
go on courting a girl who has decid-
ed against you. Everything you do
only serves to harden her in her de-
cision. Call it a day and quit.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am nine
teen and my girl friend is seven
teen. We ere going steady. Is
necking a girl dangerous? Some
people say it is the beginning with
intimacies and I know this from
experience. 1 have come to the
conclusion that more depends on
the fellow than the girl.
The girl I am going with at
present says she is in love with
me, but she is only infatuated At
our age, what do we know about
real love? I don't believe ! would
be too serious with this girl
F. S.
AnSwer-You are about 100 per
cent correct in your conclusion that
constantly repeated stimulus leads
to it's logical conclusion. If you

Manners and
Morals
BY JANE JORDAN

Jane Jordan sIwayssiS interested in your
opinions well as your problems. n you
have a question on which YOU need more
light, put it in a letter to the column.
Dear Jane Jordan-Your answer
to my recent letter was very help
full and has changed my whole life
for the better. The answer to the
problem was summed up in one
sentence of your reply. I believe
that people who object to your
answers would appreciate them
more if they would study them
thoroughly from a psychological
viewpoint.
You have published a letter
from a girl who asks. What do
men prefer in a wife?" From the
viewpoint of tradition they prefer
one who is untouched. The first
requisite of a successful marriage
is physical compatibility. If COM
patlbillty is one Of the most i'm
portant factors, wouldn't marriage
be more successful if the parties
knew whether they are compat-
ible before marriage?
OF course this is extremely radi-
cal and against moral laws and
public opinion, but from a psyche
logical viewpoint
I ASK YOU.
Answer-What you suggest sounds
perfectly logical on paper, but il
doesn't always work out so we'll in
fact. The most perfect logic often

it is wise for you to avoid constant
strain on your self-control. One
way to avoid trouble is keep out of
the way Of temptation.
You would do we'll not to attach
too much Importance to your way
ward thoughts. They are harmful
only when INDUCED to such an ex-

You are exceptionally smart not
to confuse your present emotional

too close a union with a girl who
will expect you to become a per-

Many radical young people agree
with you and have insisted on their
right to experiment without waiting
for social approval. Some of them
have worked through to well-or-
dered and successful lives, although
we do not like to admit it, But
enough of them get into hot water
to prove that no one solution ever
works for all people.
Where such a departure from con-
vention violates convictions held
from childhood, even intellectual
approval is powerless against the
emotion kick-back. Some men never
get over the marital consent
and their ugly suspicious poison the
marriage from the start.
Some girls are pursued by an UNI
pleasant sense of guilt are compelled
to punish themselves by self-abase-
ment and silly martyrdom. Others
eXpatiate their secret guilt feelings
by the weird device of Furnishing
others. Except in we'll balanced
people, the aim inhibited relation
ship before marriage seems to be
safest. I don't see any way to re-
move the element of chance from
mating. 1t remains a gamble under
any conditions.

Dear Jane Jordan-Three years
ago I met a girl with whom I fell
in love For two years and six
months we went steady. 1t was
all settled that we were going to
be married. Then she went away
to visit her relatives. When she
'came back she said she wanted to
have a good time and didn't want
to go steady any more. How that
hurt me no one knows.
For the last eleven months I
have tried to get her back but it
seems no use. I've proposed to
her at least ten times. I've bought
her things, I've taken her places,
I've told her a thousand times I
love her, but still I can't get her.
I've even tried to make her jeal-
GUS Now she tells me that I killed
what love she had for me. Other
girls just don't interest me. l

The weak links in the chain are
Belgium and Switzerland. France
cannot carry her associates in the
bloc in spite of her enormous accu-
mutation of gold and the political
unity of the RENTER and civil classes
who would suffer most from devalua-
ton. 1t is obvious that a collapse of
the bloc would mean a period of de-
moralized currencies and of trade sus-
pension. 1t would also bring the
United States forward as the only
country in the world with a gold cur
rency; that is, one willing to buy or
sell gold at a fixed price.

lapse would be quick arrangement

trading nations could tie. Without it.
much of the benefit of the recovery in
England would be lost, and a further
shock to business sentiment here would
occur. For this reason it seems poor
policy to wait for what appears in
evltable and take its consequences.
The statesmanlike plan would be to
anticipate the event and obtain sta
billzation of the dollar and the pound
at a proper rate, and so ease of the
effect of a breakup of the gold bloc.
1t might be possible to arrive at a
point satisfactory to both parties to
the negotiations and effective for a
period of say, six months while other
problems were being worked out. The
important thing Is to anticipate the
pending trouble and not permit it to
get out of control before deciding to
do something to offset it.
The United States has the whip
hand in this situation. Its policy,
eventually, will determine what is to
be done. Il cannot escape loss to its
trade or avoid slap at recovery if
another phase of currency unsettle-
ment on the continent of Europe de-
velops. 1t is tied in with the rest of
the world so far as economic matters
are concerned. 1t is important that
it use its power and prestige at this
critical moment to lead its competitors
in the right direction.

SECONDARY BONDS
|NFURTHER GAINS
LoW.Priced Rails Again in
Demand in Short Sat-
urday Session.
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
ssociated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, November 24-Due to
a further recovery of secondary issues,
the bond market displayed a firm un-
dertone in today's brief session.
Low-priced rail loans were again in
demand. as were scattered utilities.
The industrials, while not so active,
were relatively steady. The majority
Of United States Government secur-
ities were a trifle higher, while the
foreign department was somewhat
irregular. The secondary groups ap-
parently were stimulated by another
upturn in stocks.
Total Transfers.
Transfers totaled S6280,000, par
value, against S7621 900 last Satur-
day. The Standard Statistics Co. av-
erage for 60 domestic corporate bonds
advanced another 2-l0 of point to
84.3, the level at which this composite
started at the beginning of the week.
Gains of 1872 to 1892 predominated
in the Federal list, although there
were few scattered small losses, and
several issues were unchanged. Home
Owners Loan As eased 1-32, although
at 10027 they we're still at premium
above their par call price.
Among rail gamers of 1 to around
points were some liens of Allegheny
Corp, Baltimore g. Ohio, Central Pa
cific, Erie, MKT, Lehigh Valley
CPennsylvania), New Haven, Frisco
and Southern.
Other Firm Issues.
The announcement that Socony-
Vacuum was calling S28000,000 of its
outstanding obligations did not hurt
the Standard of New York 4 IS of 1851,
which advanced q of point to 1034.
Other firm industrial and utility issues
included those of Portland General

Marion Steam Shovel, Interboro Rapid
Transit, General Public Service. Co
lumbia Gas, Consolidated Gas, Amer

Improvement was shown by obliga-
