in life she is seeking. There isn't
a spell on her let her alone and
hope and trust that she sees fit
to establish herself in one place and
go to work.
M. M. S.: I am worried about
the property I bought with my
husband. I have written him sew
eral times without an answer. /
heard that he has married again.
What must I do about it?
Ans: Under the circumstances,
don't you think you should make
trip out to your home town and
have a definite understanding about
your property. You should have
come to an agreement and settle
ment with your husband about this
matter long ago. Attend to this
business right away.
B. P. c.: I had three years of
college but did not return this fall.
I am taking a thorough business
course and 1 wonder if I am in the
right field. I seem to be crazy
about it thus far.
Ans: Your liking it should be
convincing enough that you are 60
ing to make a fine business girl
and 1 recommend that you study
very hard in order to get through.
You have advanced quite rapidly
. Immediately after Xmas begin
writing letters to various business
houses in the large cities and see
if you can't find good paying work.

D. A.: Tell me if I should remain
here at home or should I go back
to the city to my job?
Ans: / can't see where it would
make any difference where you
worked as long as you found
work and could support yourself.
If you are more cOntented there
at home look around and see
if you can't find a good job. You
will be happier with the home folks
and your old friends.
J. L.: I am going with a lady
whom I admire very much and I
wish to know if you think I will
make a mistake to marry her.
Ans: Before marrying her, my
advice is to learn more about the
good lady. Do not rush into mar
riage for there is too much red
tape and inconvenience attached to
an unhappy marriage. After you
have known her for a few months,
you both appear very agreeable
and in love, there's nothing like
taking a chance!
H. E. j.: Is there anything can
be done about this girl of mine Z?
She has left home again. Has any
one put spell on her to cause her
to act the way she does?
Ans: She's a "gad-abOut" and
she doesn't feel cOntented unless
she's on the go constantly. There's
no use in the world to worry about
her because she isn't going to settle
down until she finds the happiness

Annual Supper
Literally PatrOnized

The annual supper served by the
ladies of the Methodist church here,
in the basement of the church on
Friday evening last, proved as popu-
lar as those that had gone before it.,
and was very literally patronized.
These suppers, in addition to win
ming favor through their cuisine ex-
cellance, have the unique feature of
having gradually developed into an
annual home coming" event for a
large number of our former resi-
dents, who make it point to attend
and renewed acquaintance about the
festive board. This social feature
adds greatly to the enjoyment of
these annual suppers.
The gross receipts from the sup
per were $160.50, indicating that
more than three hundred people
were served

However, 1t is still above the ma
tional average.
Commenting ON the 1941 Christ
mas Seal Sale William B. Matthews,
Managing Director of the Maryland
tuberculosis Association, said II
first want to thank the various
groups that have aided us in the
stupendous task of preparing for the
Seal Sale and who will carry on
throughout the State. Their enthu-
siasm indicates that Maryland's anti
tuberculosis program for next year
should be insured.
Great gains have been made
against our common enemy, he
said, but we must never relax. Tu-
berculosis is a killer and public
enemy, and If we advance ON all
fronts, we shall be able to bring the
disease under control"
Tuberculosis can be prevented
and cured, Mr.. Matthews contin
ued, 'but as it is contagious d.
sease, no home is safe until all
homes are safe. Place Christmas
Seal on every letter and package
from now until Christmas and let
the world know you are helping pro-
tect your community.
The Christmas Seal Sale will close
ON Christmas Day.
