received letter from this cousin.
Her letters were Of the greatest

ing mere girl friend. Please
help us. Should we continue this
affair and make matrimony a de

Ans: Marriage is not union

young and you are honest enough

under these conditions it may be

Soviet shock troops were reported
in a front dispatch today to be
pouring through a new break

miles from Budapest and heading
toward the eastern outskirts of

The new advances were scored
amid indications that seizure of

The Red Army captured more

Water PdysCitY;
Sewage Costly

Financial reports for two city
departments made today by Ben
jamin j. Tobin, auditor general,
show a substantial increase in one
and a decrease in the other.
For the fiscal year ending June,
1914. the department of water
supply income amounted to $780,
799 compared with $357 .255 for
the previous year. With water
rates remaining the same. the high
revenue was credited to increased
demand.
Net income of the sewage dis
posal system dropped from $780,
397 to $112,677, due TO increased
salaries, cost of supplies and a
change from the use of fuel oil to
coal. Rates remained the same
as the previous year.

Actually. the President has
