PROBLEMS OF LIFE

ask me to marry him and I told him
no. But, he is a nice boy, he don't
drink and he treats me nice. Must
l marry him or not? He has been
coming to see me eight months and
hasn't missed but one Sunday night.
l want to marry but my mother says
l should wait.
Ans: Mother knows that a girl
of Is usually isn't capable of max
ing a decision so important and
vital to her future as this one. She
would much prefer that you waited
until you were through high school
before accepting the young man.
This will give him a chance to ac-
cumulate something worth while
during the next two years. If he
loves you, he won't object to this
short period of waiting.
L. A. W.: l really enjoy reading
your column and l want you to solve
my problem. Pm II years old, and
this is my last year in high school.
l wish to know whether l should
stay out west and finish high school
or go back home?
Ans: The curriculum varies in
different sections of the country.
Were you to make a change now, in
your last year of high school, you
may not be able to finish on sched-

P. R.: My boy friend and have
quit because he wasn't nice to me.
Now l have met another boy who
seems intelligent and he wants to
marry me. What must 1 do?
Ans: Don't let your wounded
pride lead you into an unhappy mar
riage. Retaliation in this manner
would bring more heartaches than
you feel you are experiencing at
this time. Stay single until you can
find a man who can make you
happy.
T. T.: My husband went off two
years ago and was supposed to send
for me and the kids and he never
did. When / heard from him last
he said he would be home this fall.
Does he intend to live with us any
more?
Ans: Your husbands work re-
quires wide travel and it would be
unwise to drag you and the children
from place to place. Now that jobs
are plentiful you might encOur-
age him to get work that would
make it possible for him to be home
with you and the family there is no
doubt but that you could save more
money this way.
X. N. H: l am 16 years old and
have been in love with boy. He

may not like him at all. Second,
Don't gush over him when you
see him and don't chase him.
Since you like football and bas-
ketball games and the boy does
too, why don't you and some of
your high school chums plan to
attend some of the football and
basketball games our own Phyllis
Wheatley House and Halle Q.
Brown House have. Since the boy
likes sports, he's bound to show
up at one of the games. If he's
there it would be perfectly all
right for you to speak to him and
strike up a conversation. Third.
The holiday seasons are nearing,
Halloween, Thanksgiving and
Xmas. Since you met the boy at
a party, perhaps one of your
dear girl friends land one you
can trust) may have a party at
that time. If so, and if she also
knows this boy ask her to in
vite him. The rest is up to you.
Those are all the suggestions
can offer. In the meantime why
not get acquainted with other
boys and girls of your age. You're
quite young to center your at
tentiOns on one boy.

press are evidently working on the
Hitler theory that if you tell a lie
often enough the people will believe
it. When Warren Brown bounced
on the Negro press in his article
which appeared in the Readers
Digest, l thought the young man
was simply trying to use an easy
method to get some publicity for
himself. But since that opening
gun was fired, newspapers, maya
zines, public and private individuals
have followed through, placing the
blame for racial outbreaks on the
Negro press.
In the same article Davenport
quotes one Governor who wishes
his name withheld as saying: The
principal trouble is that a lot of mis-
guided people who do not under
stand the Negro are doing him a
great injustice by urging him to
take advantage of the war period
to demand social equality" The
assumption of course is that that
Governor believes that cOlOred peO-
pie have to be told they are being
mistreated. There is something
radically wrong with his head.
What does that Governor mean by
misguided people" who do not IN
derstand the Negro urging him to
demand social equality? That Gov
ernOr is the one who is misguided
if he for one moment believes that
cOlOred people are going to continue
to accept insults and discrimination
willingly.
The peoples of the world are
struggling for freedom. And col
ored people are determined to be
free. Those who think that colored
Americans are stupid children who
love the smile of their masters are
pure unadulterated idiots. True it
is that they have not adopted physi-
cal violence or force to redress their
wrongs. Some of them even appear
to love their masters. Even these
don't like their chains. They accept
their condition because they feel
that it would be useless to resist.
Who ever heard of a slave loving
his master? All the talk about
slaves loving their master is pure
hog wash. True, it is that some
say they do but let those who are
oppressed believe that they have a
fighting chance and they will kick
the pants off their tormentors.
Now as to the inAammatory Ne
gro press. What is it that the press
does that causes it to be 50 brand
ed? Is it because it prints the truth
concerning the treatment of eolored
Americans in the Army, industry,
and by the Government? Is it be-
cause this alleged "infammatOry
press" distinguishes between the
preachments and the practices of
those who profess love for demOc-
racy?
And who are the alleged agi-
tators? For what do they agitate?
Is not the announced purpose for
which the United Nations are fight
ing the equality and freedom of all
peoples? Are those who are blamed
for agitating the racial question
doing anything except requesting
that Is million colored Americans
be treated as decent human beings?

MYSTERY QUESTION OF
THE WEEK:

he w LEN:
What prominent Twin City bust
ness man has been seen for. the
past two weeks at 1855 P. NJ. on
one Of Deep Rondo's corners"
waiting for WHAT? The business
man it's said, gazes anxiously each
night at his watch and as yet not
a soul has made an appearance. (He
parks his car about two blocks
away Who is he waiting for?
Could it be one of the defense la
dies just returning from the Swing
Shift" or could it be he's losing his
mind and is waiting for the ship
that never seems to come in. Your
guess is as good as mine.)
Well, friends, here's hoping that
in the near future the above mys-
terry will be solved.

Scouts to Collect Papers
And Cans Next Monday

The Boy Scouts did pretty well
last Saturday on their paper and
tin can collection. They gathered
about $40 worth of stuff. Many Of
the homes hadn't prepared their
cans and papers for collection on
such short notice, so the collection
wasn't as complete as was de-
sired. The boys have again Sc
cured the city's truck and will
make another collection Monday
morning, Decs. q. Householders
who would like to have the cans
and papers collected will please
leave them out in the front yard,
that morning, as that will be the
last collection. :
Papers and magazines should be
tied in bundles separately. Cans
should be clean, de-labeled, ends
cut out and flattened and left in
the sacks or cartons for easy hand
ling. ~.. --..,. ..r.. -.. z
Residents outside the city limits

Ask Another
Fooibridge for
New School House
Council again talks of
opening dead end
streets in Gardens

Matter of the construction of a
new footbridge across the canal
at Fruitland street to handle the
traffic for Kennewick's new school
house, came before the city coun-
Gil Tuesday evening. Application
had also been made for street
bridge, but inasmuch as Canal
street parallels the ditch in front
Of the new building site and has
a crossing at Kennewick Avenue
and one at Dayton street, the
council came to the conclusion that
the footbridge would be sufficient.
Figures on the construction of the
bridge will be secured from con-
tractors.
Discussion again came up re-
garding the opening of the dead
end streets in the Garden Tracts.
These avenues have no connecting
cross streets from Hartford street
to the city limits, and only one
of the five avenues is cut thru
past the city limits. None con-
meet with the highway. Further
investigation of the possibilities
will be undertaken.

Combination Drive Nets
About Half of Quota

While the county went far and
above its quota on the War Chest
drive, the Kennewick drive fell
down considerably. The Kenne-
wick drive was a combination
of War Chest, Recreational FUND
and Community Chest. The quo
tas were such that, after the div
ision, the Recreational Fund re-
ceived about half the $4,000 needed
and the Community Chest SIM
liar division.
The War Chest drive, with a
county quota of $4,000, totaled
more than three times that sum,
something over $4,000 having
been raised. Of course, a large
part of this amount came from the
nearby project.
