not ask this question, but I would
like to know when I will be mar
ried?
Ans: It is easily seen that
despite the question of age you are
not yet ready for marriage. When
you have acquired a few more
years of age, and learned to con-
slider the matter seriously, you
will have no difficulty in securing
an ideal mate. 1t will be at least
FOUR YEARS.
M. T. H.: I am dissatisfied with
| my married life. Will my husband
ever change? Is there any rea-
son why we should remain to-
gether?
Ans: You have just cause to be
dissatisfied. In your years of
pleading you have failed to iniu-
ence your husband. 1t would
probably do more good to "read
the riot act" to him. Take a firm
stand and insist that he show more
consideration for your welfare.
M. E. EVIL you please tell
me where my son is and why he
doesn't write to me?
Ans: Probably the chief reason
he doesn't write is thOughtlessness.
He is very much interested in his
work and also has been bitten re-

daughter that makes her run after
| CnlS boy SO mucn
Ans: The child has been denied
the usual privilege enjoyed by other
girls her age, hence she feels that
she must seek her own pleasure in
her own way. Allow her more
privileges and invite the young
people to your home and she will
overcome this attraction for the
boy without harm being done.
w. R. S.-My father wants me
to come and live with him for the
summer and I can't make up my
mind. Will there be any misunder-
standings if I go?
Ans: It's your duty to go re-
CARELESS of what you may think
about him now. His new wife will
show you a swell time. AS long as
you accept money from him you
should certainly spend couple of
weeks with him each summer. He
isn't half as bad as he has been
pictured.

as I am nearly crazy with worry.
have wronged my husband and if
tell him it will hurt him terribly
and he loves me dearly.
Ans: If you are fully aware of
the wrong done him by yourself
and wish to be forgiven then I
would suggest that you withhold
this knowledge from him and seek
forgiveness through being a bet
ter and more faithful wife. A con-
fessiOn on your part would only
cause him to suffer.
E. V. 81 have a boy friend
who says he loves me and wishes
to marry me. Is this true or is he
only kidding me?
Ans: This boy is rather fond
of you as a friend and companion,
but his interest does not constitute
love. You will have many pleasant
times with him and see him often,
as he lives NEXT DOOR, but mar
riage is not likely to follow.
M. L. W.-Why did the letters
that 1 mailed come back to me?
Will I ever see the party to whom
the letters were addressed?
Ans: The party to whom you
sent the letters has moved to an
other city so it was impossible for
him to receive them. 1t is doubt
full that you will ever see him again
as his interest is now centered
elsewhere.
C. l. K.-I am worried about
my health and sometimes worry
too much. When will the event
that I have been worrying about
so much come to pass?

After a long while Chang men
toned another thing as an example,
He said: you always have In your
head such men as 70 Fei. Wen Tien-
hsiang and Sze Ko-fa Gall three are
well-known characters in Chinese
history who sacrificed their lives for
the nation) and are therefore behind
the times In your mentality. Why
DO you insist upon sacrificing your
self for the sake Of principles and
not think Of the possibility of achieve
ments? I think you are the only
great man Of this age, and why won't
you yield q little, comply with our
requests and lead Us on in this rev.
olution 10 that we may achieve
something instead Of merely sacrific-
Ing your life? In our opinion. to
sacrifice ones life is certainly not a
good plan nor the real object Of q
revolutionary"
I was surprised at his wrong rea-
soning and told him that considered
his words very strange. He should
know that revolution meant sacrifice
and not speculation for benefit. Sac
rif1ce and achievement are one and
the same thing. Our leader CDR.
Sun Yat-sen said that one should
undergo the supreme sacrifice if one
could not attain ones aim, which
shows that he, too, did not consider
the two things as different.

Chang said I was too despotic, and
that even a. q simple citizen he

told him that am bearing now
the responsibility OF the life or death
Of the nation. and all loyal citizens
should obey the orders Of the central
authorities as well as those OF their
leader. If they captured their leader,
and tried to compel him to do this
or that, could they be still considered
as citizens?
Besides" said I, "you are a mill
tary officer and cannot enjoy the
same privileges Of common citizen.
All those who try to endanger the
fate OF the nation are my enemies, as
well as the enemies of the people

try to cover up your own tracks by
making these so-cslled proposals. All
this Is entirely wrong In short, be-
fore 60 back to Nanking there can
be no discussion about your terms or
proposals"
Then Chang asked it. after my re-
turn, their proposals might be brought
up before the central authorities.
I replied that would allow them
to bring the matter up, but at the
same time I must say that I could
not agree with their proposals.
If you do not approve OF them,"
said Chang. what, then, would be
the use OF bringing them up?"

said the party has its rules and
its discipline, and I could not decide
alone, but decisions must be made by

Chang remained silent for a long
while and then said, you, the gen.

character, but there Is one defect,
namely. that the generalissimo's
thinking is too old and too much in
clined to the right"
I asked him what he meant by "old."

open-letter telegram including eight
proposals and I must agree to some
Of them 50 that the coup might not
become meaningless. II, said he, no
results whatever were achieved, the
crowd would not agree to sending me
back.
The so-called eight proposals were:

parties and cliques might come In and
help save the nation.

Rebukes Chang Strongly.
strongly rebuked him for going
back on his own promise, which he
made before my change Of residence,
and did not allow him to 60 on with
his speech. I also said that what
ever proposals they might have and
however good the proposals might
sound, their conduct in effecting the
coup was absolutely wrong and nobody
could believe in their sincerity or sup
port their proposals.
Chang further explained the reasons
for their eight proposals and wanted
me to consider them. I said I had
determined to sacrifice my life rather
than sign any document while under
duress and had thought over the stu
alton very carefully. At the former
place Of confinement I had already
told him about it; why should he still
be unable to understand my position? +?

he could never break my will power.

these statements and, while he could
easily understand why the country
would perish II our leader had tried
to save his own life, he could not

sighed, and said: "You really
have not learned the great principles
OF revolution; hence you commit such
serious blunders If I should try to
save my life today and forget the well
fare Of the nation and the question Of
life and death Of the race, or If I be-
come afraid in the face Of danger, my
character as q military man will be
destroyed, and the nation will be in Q
precartous position. This means that
the nation will perish when I live.
"On the other hand, II stand firm

Chang saw that he could not COM
pei me to do anything, and retired In
silence
After Chang left, Donald told me
what the central authorities had de-
cided upon and done after the coup,
and that they were determined upon

1t has been pointed out that indi-
vidual refining plant production
volume is necessary to insure maxi
mum operating economy and eff
cheney and to permit OF the dis
tribution Of refined products over
a wide area in competition with
other crude oil producing districts.
It is indicated that, within certain
limits, the cost of refinery operation
is dependent upon volume of pro-
duction and that sufficiently large
project, combining the crude oil pro-
duction from these fields, would en-
able the manufacture Of refined
products on a competitive basis with
other sources of supply, and allow
for the marketing of Montana pro-
duced gasoline not only within this
state but in the greater part Of
North Dakota, Eastern Washington,
and Idaho as well; and at the same
time assure local producers a maxi
mum price for their crude oil.
It is believed that If the support
Of the Northern Montana producers
is given to this project, and a suf-
ficient supply of crude assured,
these producers will, within the near
future, be given the opportunity of
contracting their crude production.
Surveys that have heretofore been
made of the potential daily pro-
duction in the Cut Bank, Kelvin
Sunburst, and Pondera fields reflect
a total developed production in these
fields as of today of 100000 bar
rels per month whereas the total
refinery consumption, including pro-
jected refineries heretofore announc-
ed. total approximately 800 900 bar
