Dorothy Dix Says
A Girl Should Be Able to Judge a Mans
Affections by the Presents He Gives Her.

DEAR MISS DIX: I am a young
man Of %, engaged to a girl who
works in the same department of a
large business Office that do. She Is
secretary-stenographer to a man who
Is my department head. She is con-
stahtly browbeaten and driven by her
boss. and she comes to me with her
troubles and complains about him. I
want to sympathize with her, but I
do not want any personal feelings be-
tween the man and myself, for he is
also my boss. and it makes the situa-
ton very difficult for me. My fiancee
also thinks that my stenographer is
trying to put something over on me
and constantly talks against her. The
two girls do not get along, and that
causes me great deal of embarrass-
ment. I also asked my sweetheart not
to wear her engagement ring at the
Office, and she is putting of our mar
riage because of this. love her more
than all the jobs on earth, so what
shall I do? ANXIOUS.
Answer-Marry her and take her
out of the Office. She is evidentally
one Of the women who are tempera-
mentally unfit for business and whose
| proper sphere is a home, where they
can be monarchs of all they survey
and quarrel with the butcher and the
baker without endsngering their hus-
bands futures.
As the matter stands it is Just a
question of time until she will lose you
your job because your mutual boss will
find out that she is running to you with
her complaints about him and that you
| are taking her part, and he will dis
charge you. Even now she is hindering
your chanses of advancement, which
must come to you through your imme-
date superior, by distracting your at
tention from your work and causing
you TO dislike him.
7 TRUST your sweetheart will make
you a good wife in the way Of
being affectionate and kind and a
good cook. But she isn't going to be
the kind of wife who will help you get
on in the world because she Is selfish
and narrow-minded and jealous and
determined to do her own way. If she
were broad-minded enough to see the
picture as a whole. she would know
that your success depends on you get
ting along with your boss, and she
would not try TO stir up enmity be-
tween you.
If she were unselfish, she would not

If she were unselfsh, she would not
burden you with all her little hare-ups
with her employer. If she we're not
determined to have her own way, she
would not be insistent on wearing her
ring in the Office when you do not
wish her to do So And if she we're not
green-eyed she would know that your
relations with your stenographer are
Just as impersonal as hers with her
boss.

Take my advice and get the girl out
Of the office as soon as you can unless
you want to lose your job. And after
you are married, if you want any peace,
never have a woman stenographer-
