to be so absolutely disgusting as to
bring up what she did before you
two were married. You may as
well make up your mind right now
to the fact that if you don't
stop it and give her the benefit of
the doubt <. you are going to be
without a mighty nice little wife.
She is perfectly innocent of what
you think. Stop it now.
M. L. B.: Is my husband truly
trying to obtain work and how soon
will he succeed at finding it?
Ans: He is, yes, but he really
doesn't know how to hunt job. II
he would work half as hard search
ing for work as he does when ht
gets a job he would be EN-
plOyed right now. You do every
thing you can to make ends meet
for a while keep encouraging
him and he will do something.

T. T.: I have a girl friend love
very much and 1 want to know
where I stand with her?
Ans: At ''TOp Notch" right now.
You had better let her know your
feelings for she isn't going to wait
always for you to make up your
mind to confess your love.
L. L. H.: Should I go to Pitts
burgh or should I go down in
Georgia? Any suggestion would
be appreciated?
Ans: Run over to Pittsburgh
while you are waiting for your
plant to open up again for it is
likely that your brother could help
you get situated. If you don't find
anything by the first of April, al
though am confident you will >. p.
you can always return to your farm
in Georgia.
M. G. R.: l like your column
very much. Should I do as intend
to by letting my husband alone or
do you think 1 will ever be able to
get any good out of him?
Ans: Right at this time he just
isn't going to straighten up and do
the right thing although do
not think that you should put too
much confidence in your boy friend
either for you have the Chill
DREN TO CONSIDER.
R. R. Y: Will you please tell me
why that man won't pay me for
my timber? Is there any way that
can get my money?
Ans: If you make him pay you,
it will be necessary for you to con-
suit a lawyer and do so legally. The
sooner you get the matter into a
lawyers hands the better off
you will be. He doesn't want to
pay or he would answer your let
tiers.
v. H. H.: am a married woman
but have gone with man for two
years. 1 was doing o. K. until I
left my husband. Now tell me if
this man intends to still love me
and will he make me his wife?
Ans: He has had his fun you
are just left holding the bag"
The best thing for you to do is
wash your hands of the whole af-
fair and make some other nice
friends. An association of this
kind will never work out you
made your mistake by leaving your
good husband.
M. S.: Ny troubles are financial
ones . 1 stay in the same rut all
of the time and I wonder why !
can't get ahead. What would you
suggest?
Ans: You just haven't tackled
the right kind of work as yet. Make
the CHANGE OF LOCATIONS
that you are contemplating and es-
tablish yourself in a different field.
The coming months are going to
be prosperous ones for you.
E. R. P: Why does fate play on
me? Is there any way for me to
get the job back again that I lost?
Ans: 1t just so happened that
your breaks have been tough, but
you must not let it get you down.
Make a diligent search for en-
plOyment and you will find some
thing shortly. No you will not
return to the same job.
c. M: I have been married for
three months and for some reason
1 am awful jealous of her for moth
ing. I often tell her of her past
life and wonder what will be the
outcome?
Ans: Can't you be bigger than
that? What good is it doing you
