C. d. have been living with
this man Is years and every since
we started together he has promis-
ed to marry me but never has. Now
I have met another very nice man
who wants to marry me and give
me a home. He wants me to &c
look at the home that he wants
to buy and see if ! like it. Tell me
if I should marry him?
Ans: The man you have been
with Is years has been mighty
good to you and his one fail
ing has been that he did not
marry you as he promised. But
in all fairness to him, let him
know that if he doesn't carry
out this promise that you will
leave. II he refuses, then you
will have reason to leave him
and get a place alone. Don't
ALLOW any other man to enter
your life until you have come
to some definite decisions about
your future with the one you
are with.

CULTIVATE sPONGES
Another new industry is being
built around the cultivation of the
loofa sponge, used in marine en-
gines to filter water. About SO per
cent Of these sponges formerly
came from Japan, but now, through
the efforts of the Office of Econmic
Warfare, various countries in the
Caribbean area are cultiyating
them.
By lar the biggest industry in
Haiti, however, is the cultivation
and processing of sisal for rope
and cordage. Before the war most
of the Manila hemp (abac9 used in
this country came from the Phillip
pines and sisal from the Dutch
East Indies and East Africa and
Mexico. Sisal is now being produc-
ed in the West Indies and Mexico
but Haiti is one of the largest
producers of the white fiber in the
Western hemisphere from the
leaves of which is made the cor
dage,' lariats and binding Irvine so
much needed in war industries.
The Haitian American Society
for Agricultural Development was
one of the first organizations to
realize an opportunity to capture
world markets in this particular
industry. In 1912, they received a
contract from the United States De
Tense Supplies Corporation for
delivery of 25,OOO,OOO pounds of sisal
by November Is, 1915, and this con-
tract is now well on the way to-
ward fulfillment.
MAKES GOOD RECORD
No more indigenous to Haiti than
was rubber, Sisal finds a natural
home in dry soil below St. Marc
and in the PLANE du Nord, near
Cap-Haitian. Thorny sisal is now
one of the Haitian American So
ciety's sturdiest offspringS and is
expected to become staple product
of that country.
Sisal came to Haiti Is odd years
ago and has made a good record
in the extensive PettigreW and
Crook plantations at Phaeton and
Caracol in the northeast. A few
years later some $500 acres of sisal
(of PettigreW- stock were planted
on ST. Marc cape by the ST. Marc

for her?
Ans: A very wise step in my
opinion. You have built a good
reputation with your barber
business and since there isn't
a beauty shop in your vicinity
at all, it should prove pro-
ftable move. She would be
much better satisfied to own
