Interesting Session Seen


 Indications are the special meet ing of the board to be held Friday night at 8 o'clock will be an inter- eSting one. Warden Sheridan re- ported that figures for work of re- pairing the steps leading up to the Gem theater and from the south side of the building near the police headquarters up to the main hall of the building had been submitted by several persons and were low.
 He indicated that as yet no de- cision has been arrived at as to how much the town and how much Ralph Pasho, Gem theater manager, will pay. The insurance company that holds liability insurance on the thea ter some months ago informed MT. Pasho of the stair defect and indi- cated his insurance could not con- tinue unless repairs were made. The stairs are out of line about one quarter of an inch.
 However, the question then arose as to whether MT. Pasho, under the lease, was responsible and found the members of the board divided in opinion. MT. Pasho told the board he would meet 1t halfway.

NJ. d. m.-fledSe answer d us
tressed wife in your column. Is
my husband just plain mean or is
he really jealous and what makes
him act so "uppedy" about his
money?
Ans.-He has his head set to
have his Town way" about every
thing and wants you to sit around
with a smile every time he comes
in sight. He is neither mean nor
jealous but is mighty SELFISH.
He will learn that he can't get his
own way all the time even though
it does take him a long time.
]. r. M.-What would be the
better thing for me to do this fall
as / don't desire to make a mis-
take?
Ans.-If you can possibly dig
up the money, return to college.
If you find this impossible then
take the job offered you a few
weeks ago and save every cent so
that you can complete your educa-
ton later on.
F. B.-My wife has left me and
/ want you to help me make up my
mind whether l should take her
back again or let things stand as
they are now?
Ans.-Haven't you already had
troubles enough without seeking
more? Your wife left you and it
is quite evident that she doesn't
love you any more and it would be
to your own advantage as well as
hers to leave her alone. In the
meantime-dOn't put too much
faith in the GIRL you are going
with.
E. M.-Will I get companion
and take it easy like other people
and if so, when?
Ans.-You will get a companion
before Xmas-but you won't get
to take it easy as you dream about
for you will have to go to work
and help provide for the living.
It's a waste of time to sit around
and dream of a life of luxury and
leisure.
]. HI have not been well for
the last few weeks. Is anything
seriously wrong with me?
Ans.--I hardly think so. II
seems to me that you are WORRY
ING entirely too much as well as
working too long hours. Rest for
a month and consult with your
doctor and you will regain your
health. Encourage your husband
to get out and find himself job.
J. L. G.-I am a reader of your
column and think it the best paper
so please give me little space in
it soon. Will l pay for my home
which I am buying?
Ans.-It will be all yours by the
end of next year. The mere HUN.
DRIED AND FIFTY DOLLARS
you owe is just drop in the
bucket compared to what the place
cost you. Keep up the payments
as you have done in the past and
it will be rightfully yours in &
short time.
F. L. Pr am an agent for thi:
paper and / have four girl friends
I am in love with. Which one do
really love and which loves me?
Ans.-WeIl, Fred, let's take thC
girls one by one. Ruth WOULDN'T

came north and wonder if it is
going to help me?
Ans.-The change of cities you
made will help you. Seek the adj
vice of a good doctor and stay un-
der his care for a while-he will
have you back in good health.
Within a very few months you will
go to work in Detroit.
