LOVelOrn
AndNOWShe'S
Uncertain
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

DIV DEkA 4 NANG fAAIsE m
Written Exclusively for The Wash
ington Times
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1--WE met at a dance, and he told
me he fell in love with me at first
sight. Another girl told me he
was just a jOllier, that he told that
to everyone he met. But didn't
believe her.
1--WE had a grand time for about
six weeks, and then he went to
Florida to get a job. He sent me
two postcards, one from Tampa
and one from Miami, and didn't
say anything about getting a job.
The next / heard from him, he
was in Cuba, and told me he was
making $500 month, and that we
would get married right away.
"He said l could come down
there and marry him, but my par
entS didn't think he meant well by
me and wouldn't give me the
money to go. Then he gave up his
job in Cuba and went to work
in the oil fields, and didn't say
any more about getting married.
"The next 1 heard from him
was when my girl friend told me
he was back in Washington, and
had been back for three or four
weeks. But he never phOned or
let me know. When 1 called his
house, his mother answered the
phone and said she did not know
his whereabouts, but 1 knew all
the time he was right there in
the house, because he was seen.
do you think he is in earnest,
or would you suggest that / go out
with other young men?
ANNE"
The sooner you forget all about
that young man, the better for
you. He has proved himself to
be utterly irresponsible. and prob
ably he was not serious when he
wrote and asked you to marry
him. There are lot of drifters
like this who make love to every
girl as they drift along. But it
would be a great mistake for any
girl to take their love-making or
plans seriously.
This letter will also answer an
other girl, who has written about
the same type of young man, and
signed her letter r. c. S.

really new. You have enjoyed
them in washable versions, and
now you can have something as
good for your dark clothes. These
smart bags have cover that turns
right over and can be used on
either side. The bag sketched
shows an alligator grain outside,
and has calf trimming, and calf
on the other side, so that it makes
an all-calf bag when the cover is
turned. You can get them also
in calf and suede-a grand COM
binatlur because it makes the bag
do double duty for street and

SUSPECTS SPITE
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
my husband was engaged to a
girl before he married me, and
they broke up on a question Of
religion. She has always tried to
be very polite to me, but 1 suspect
her, and 1 can't endure the way
my husband keeps talking about
her fine qualities and her nobility
of character.
"She sent us a very handsome
wedding present, and 1 wish she
hadn't. It's an Old-faShiOned Co
lOnial sofa which belonged to her
grandmother, and my friends tell
me it's worth a lot Of money. I
have not thanked her for this.
I'd like to send it back. Would it
be all right if 1 ignored this gift,
which / never wanted anyhow?
bride"
It would place you in a most
unfortunate light, my dear, if you
failed to thank the young lady
for this very lavish wedding pres
ent. And why do you think she
sent it for spite? She was en-
gagged to your husband, and while
they parted on a question of re-
ligion they still regard each other
with kindness.
Please do not wreck your mar
ried life by a foolish attack of
jealousy. Write her the incest
letter you know how on your best
stationery.

it is, how soon after the an

guests to take or send engage

for granted. Very often close
relatives or close friends give en-
gagement presents to the bride

ENEATHERS on your picks, which
Il you use to spear an elusive
olive or cherry from your cocktail
glass, have more uses than would
seem at a casual glance. First off,
they're useful for that olive or
cherry. which is too good to leave.
Secondly, they dress up the
glasses beautifully, and a tray full
of glasses, each with a different
colored feather, is really some
thing to see. Thirdly, they help
you to identify your glass, if you
should sit it too close to many
others, as all the feathers are Of
enough difference in color so that
YOU can easily remember your
own. A package of about two
dozen feathers and picks, in all
the colors of the rainbow and
more, are but IS cents, so that
you can really afford this little
addition to gracious entertaining.
