Discovered He's Married

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Not long ago I met a young
man at party. He made a date
with me, and I've been going with
him ever Since-then discovered
he was married. Still, I don't
want to stop going with him, be-
cause I've learned to care a good
deal, and he says he loves me.
But I'm afraid his wife will
find this out and there will be
trouble. Should I stop seeing
him? "E. M"
If I tell you the sensible thing
to do is to drop the young mar
ried man before his wife makes
trouble, will you have enough
backbone to take my advice?
Suppose you think of the
prudent side of this affair-pub-
lie opinion. A young girl who
runs around with a married man
is apt to find herself on the shelf
as far as single men are con-
cerned.

Etiquette
Should Return
His Gifts
ByMRs.CORNELIUs BEECKMAN

ByMRS.CORNEL1 bEEChMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman
will you be so kind as to give
me the following information on
broken engagements?
"A friend of mine has just
broken his engagement and Is
puzzled as to how to get his ring
back, also hope chest.
do girls usually keep expen-
sive engagement rings and other
gifts? If not, do you think IT
would be the proper thing for
him to send back small gift that
she gave him during the time
they were engaged, with a note
asking that she return his gifts?
3D."
A girl who is well-bred, who has
a decent feeling about such
things, will as soon as her en-
gagement is broken, return to her
ex-fiance the engagement ring,
any other gifts that he has given
her, and his letters.
/ 1t is taken for granted that she
will do this, and any girl who
doesn't do it, makes a sorry pre-
! sentation Of herself and Of her
lack of sensitiveness. The ring, the
gifts, the letters, were symbols Of
an engagement that no longer
exists, and so the gifts should not
exist to her.
In cases where his ex-fiancee
has such atrocious taste as not to
return her engagement ring and
other gifts, a man can either de-
eide to 'let it CO." or if he wishes
to make an issue of it, can write
to ask her for the return Of the
ring and other gifts. 1t is unpleas-
ant when a girl forces a man to
ask her to show proper manners,
but she has only her own crude
ness to blame.
The man about whom you are
writing could return her gift, and
at the same time, request the re-
turn of his gifts. This note needn't
be an ungracious or unfriendly
one, but simply a fortnight re-
quest.

She's always calling me an old
maid, and says I'm old enough to
have baby in my arms, and yet
I'm only 20.
Il go to public dances now and
then, and of course, if the right
man came along, I'd be delighted
to marry. But in the meantime,
everything is made difficult and
unpleasant for me at home.
II may add that I've been work

I've not published all of your
letter, which makes pretty un-
happy reading. See what is open
to you in your church in the way
of clubs or activities for young
people. Most churches have
rooms where young people can
meet and have simple parties.
Why not get up a dramatic club
and act? That's lots of fun.
Learn tap-dancing, or organize a
cooking class, and invite the boys
in to sample some of your
products.
If your house has a big old
fashioned kitchen, why not do it
over as sort of clubroom? Ger.
tainly a girl who has been earn
ing her living for three years
should be able to entertain her
friends at home once in while.

Usually the salad is served as a
separate course after the main
course, and is accompanied by
toasted crackers and cheese. Or
it may be served as part Of the
main course. Sometimes, espe-

where many kinds of fruits are
grown (as is true where you live)
a fruit salad is served as the first
course.

Chief Explains
Big Game License
Is Part Of States New Bounty
Law, McCauley
Tells

General approval of sportsmen
of Washington has been shoWered
upon the statute providing payment
of bounties for the destroying OF
cougar, coyote, bobcat and lynx, but
there appears to be a misunder-
standing in some quarters regard
ing the section Of the bounty act
requiring big game seals for hunting
of elk, deer and bear, Bernard t.
McCauley, acting state director OF
game, says.
Numerous individuals who have
praised the bounty act do not know
that the big game seal requirement
is portion of the same bounty
measure passed at the last session
of the state legislature at the re-
quest of sportsmen of the state, and
thew have requested an explanation
of the 5O-cent fee assessed this year
for each big game SEAL" ne ex-
planned.
some sportsmen have the false
impression that the big game seal
requirement is the result OF a sta0e
game commission regulation instead
of a legislative statute. This I'M
doubtedly is due to the fact that
the bounty act authorizes the d1-
rector of game to make all neces-
sary rules and regulations Tor the
enforcement and operation OF TINS
act"
The bounty act in another section
requires the Keeping of an accurate
account of all money received from
sale of big game seals, stating: "The
purpose of this provision being tc
insure that moneys received by OF
through the issuance or sale of such
metal tags shall as nearly as prac'
ticable be devoted to end used fol
the payment of bounties in this ac1
provided for"

thought of flying through the air
So, why should we disbelieve what
