/ it. l asked her sister where she is
at and she won't tell me. I feel as
though 1 should write her, or get
in touch with her because she was
my best girl friend, and at this
time l feel as though 1 should cor
respond with her.
Ans: If you want to do some
thing nice for your girl friend, then
drop your search for her. It's the
desire of your friend and her fam
lily that her present whereabouts be
kept a secret. For her sake .
keep the matter as quiet as pos
sible. You will hear from her in
due time. In the meantime prove
your friendship by keeping mum.
M. B. NJ: Which one of these
lines of business would I be more
successful in? Beauty Work,
Rooming House, or open up a
Spanish Cafe and Bar in my
house? Thanking you very kindly
in advance for your advice.
Ans: The beauty work would be
too costly for you to get into
right now. It would take consider
able training to prepare yourself
for this work and another thing
you just haven't the capital to put
it over. The Spanish cafe and bar
would cause you more trouble than
it would be worth. My advice
therefore is to concentrate on the
job you know and understand .
which is operating a rOOming
house.
Lonesome: I am a firm reader
of your column and you tell some
good things to girls. Once was
in love with a boy and he was go
ing to marry me but it was my
fault the reason he did not marry
me. Will ever get him back? He
loves me and I love him. He has
come back around me so I just
pass off the time with him. I would
like to have him all to myself one
more time.
Ans: That's impossible, so stop
fOOling yourself. He offered to
marry you once and you refused
now he is married to another
girl and you have no business COM
ing between them. There are plen-
ty of young men who would well
come your friendship if you
gave them half a chance. The sue
cess of your future is wrapped in
new friendships not in this old
flame of yours.

Hello, Folks:

Hello, Folks:
Well, the Christmas parties have
just about wound up now. Quite
a nice group turned out to the
Cameo party on Christmas night at
the Sterling Club. Heard a num-
Der of the young matrons at the
party saying that they'd always
held a soft feeling in their hearts
for the Sterling Club, bein' that a
lot of them met their love-lights
there a number of years back. . &.
That cute couple, DONALD and
GENEVIEVE JAMES, were there.
Genevieve was looking pretty in a
green outfit. Believe it or not,
"Park- Your-Carcass" almost came
to the party, but changed his mind
at the last minute. JIMMIE
GRIFFIN was round and about in
Producing his attractive wife to the
dancers. Saw GEORGE and
RUTH BROOKS looking as devoted
as ever. And speaking of de-
voted couples, the BILL SMALLS
were really that. You know Bill is
on army furlough and was looking
quite handsome in his cavalry uni
form. Some more uniformed
army men on leave were EDDIE
LEE and CLEAT OLIVER. They
were the center of attraction, tell
ing their army life tales. :. BILL
CARROLL was dashing about
creating a number of "heart at
tacks." j.. DERALYN DOTY was
looking quite attractive in red,
wasn't she? ERNEST POTTS
and ELIZABETH MOORE were
among the dancers. VIVIAN
ARMISTEAD was cute in a black
outfit and NORMA BUFORD was
striking in a gold dress. Saw
THELMA BERRY, GERALDINE
DAVIS, ANNE THOMAS, LOUISE
BRADSHAW, NINA SALTERS
and DOROTHEA MASON around
greeting various friends. That
new song, chattanooga Cho- Cho"
was really the song of the evening.
All in all, the party was quite a
gala event.
Thisa and Thata:
BOB HARRIS and HAROLD
HOLLAND, both attending Lang
ston University in Oklahoma, are
home in St. Paul, for the holiday
season. "TINY" BELLAMY is
also home from Lincoln University
in Missouri for the holidays. q.
JIMMY SMITH and LOUISE ES-
QUE are quite a familiar two
some these days. CHARLES
MILSAP of St. Paul is another
army boy on short holiday fur
Tough. PAT and PEARL SCHO-
FIELD were really enjoying them
selves the other night at one of
st. Paul's night spots. FULLY
(CAGNEY) HICKMAN was also
one of the soloers at the night spot.
.. JEWELL MANN is sporting a
very pretty watch Con necklace),
a gift from her lovelight, BEN
ALEXANDER of Evanston, Ill.
-. Saw the newly-weds, WILL
BERT and ANITA JONES, at one
of the holiday parties. :. Also saw
LOUIS COMMODORE at one of
Minneapolis night spots, bemoan-
ing about how much he had eaten
during the week. Just heard

When the bombs started COM

shrapnel and started carving and
in doing so forgot to be scared.

But Blai fought on, with nerves
