---Duck!

Next time you hear q siren
blowing in Detroit better duck
for the nearest air raid shelter
unless II y Friday noon
II might be- a false alarm, but
the chances OF that are not very
likely. For, except for the occa-
sional use Of sirens by police cars
during a genuine emergency, and
the possibility of some siren owner
inadvertently cutting loose with
his peace-diSturber, no siren may
now legally blow in Detroit except
in case of an air raid.

ANTI-SIREN ORDINANCE

The citN'S now anti-Siren ordi-
nance designed to eliminate the
possibility Of confusing ordinary
factory or police sirens with air
raid sirens by banning the former.
\ went into effect last night at 6
Doclock.
Henceforth any one who blows a
siren without good and sufficient
reason within the city limits can
be fined up 10 $500 or sent to Jail
for 90 days
All the cityS new air raid sirens
will be tested henceforth on Fri
day moons. IL was announced 10
prevent false alarms The police
technically have the right to con-
tinue using their sirens also. but
actually. Police Commissioner John
II. WitherSpoon indicated. their
use will be limited only 10 dam
gerouS emergencies.
Witherspoon has also conferred
with Police Superintendent Louis
L. Berg and Assistant Corporation
Counsel Nathaniel II. Goldstick on
a code of situations during which
officers will be allowed TO use
their sirens.
USE OF FLASHERS
One plan under consideration
calls for the use of red flasherS
on police cars TO be used in most
situations in which the siren has
been employed in the past.
Fire department officials said
they did not believe the abolition
Of sirens would make any great
difference to fire trucks since
they still may use their loud
gongS.
During the next few days pri-
vate ambulance companies and
other users of sirens will receive
only warnings in event they mis-
takingly break the siren-Silence
After that. they will be taken
TO court for fines or Jail terms, il
was said.
City officials are reasonably con.
fident that the lack of sirens will
not increase traffic hazards here
In Chicago, where a siren bar
|. has been in effect since the first
4 of the year, the number of &C.
cidents has decreased.

D. H.: Please tell me whether
my husband and myself should
move into my brothers home. My
husband makes a very good salary
and is very good to me.
Ans: The time has come to
make change =. but not to your
brothers home. At present you
are living with your father and
this life is not satisfactory to
either you or your husband. Your
trouble is too much KINFOLKS.
The answer to your problem is for
you and your husband to move into
little place you can call your own
and where there will be no inter-
ference whatever from brothers or
sisters, fathers or mothers.
F. T.: I met a boy last year and
have been going with him ever
since. He says that he loves me
and I know that I love him. But
until recently l had a date with a
soldier and he resented it. We are
now on the rocks. Is he pretend
ing?
Ans: He's taking entirely too
much for granted. He's jealous. A
year and half is plenty of time
for him to decide whether he wants
to get serious with. you or not.
You did the right thing to date the
soldier keep right on dating
boys and don't tie yourself down
to any man who has no intention
of asking you to be his wife.
J. A. B.: My husband and I are
planning on going to California or
Arizona. Would we be successful,
or should we 60?
Ans: This is a mighty poor
time to be making drastic changes
or taking long journeys. Unless
you and your husband have sure
prospects for employment, it would
be best that you stay where you
are and invest your "nest egg" in
Defense Bonds.
E. M. F.: 1 have been going with
a fine young man for four and one
half years. love him very much
and he says he loves me. He wants
me to do something that think
any girl who isn't married would
not do if she is decent. think he
lost his temper over it about two
weeks ago, but he still says I am
the incest girl he has ever known.
He says he is never tired of me
being in his presence, and we are

always glad to see each other. Does
he love me?
Ans: I'm sure he does. I am
also sure that it wouldn't take
much encouragement on your part
to win him for a husband. I think
that's the answer to your problem.
When a boy and girl have gone
together as long as you two have,
and attract one another as you two
do . think decision to marry,
is most appropriate. Let him know
that he can have you BODY AND
SOUL but that your terms are
STRICTLY MATRIMONY.
F. E. T.: have been married
six years and five months and I
am the mother of six children,
five boys and one girl, including
one set of twins. My husband has
been a "stepper-Outer." 1 would
like to know if he is still fooling
around with women, and is he Civ
ing his money out? I can't ac-
count for it, but he says his bills
are pretty high on payday. Are
they?
Ans: And how! One bill in par
ticular is whopper, and that is
his WHISKEY BILL. Your mate
is spending entirely too much
money for liquor. Money that
should go to. you and the children
-. goes towards his "stepper-out-
ing" Inform your husband imme-
diately that unless he gives you
enough money to feed and clothe
the children and run the house on
out of his weeks wages that
you will take the matter up with
his boss. ! think this threat will
bring about a change for the bet
ter.
C. L. H: l am IS years old.
Uncle Sam needs trained aviatOrs
to defend our good old U. S. A. and
/ want to be one of those trained
fliers. I want to join the Aviation
Corps when I can. My ambition is
to be an aviator.
Ans: And you would make a
good one, too. However, there are
obstacles that must be overcome.
In order to enroll for pilots job
in the Army Air Corps a high
school education is compulsory. In
asmuch as your schooling has only
been through 9 grades your
ambition to be a pilot is stymied
for the present. I advise you to
