Until That Great Day

Some day the ships blowing the seven seas will
be bringing our boys back home.
Some day our mills and factories will turn from
the making of war machines to the making of
washing machines, from cannon to cook stoves,
from flame throwers to furnaces.
Some day the war will be over!
When that great day comes, we shall want to
buy many things we have had to go without, to
replace our old things with new. But until it
does come, we shall have to make the old things
do. For those who entered the war period with
serviceable gas appliances that is no great hard
ship.
Gas appliances are built to last. They may
become obsolete but seldom wear out. Gas
ranges are sturdy, easy to keep in repair. Gas
refrigerators have no moving parts, no machin-
cry of any kind. Gas water heaters are simple
devices. Gas furnaces and boilers, used prop
erly, will last as long as the house they are in.
Given reasonable care, any good gas appliance
will give many years of good service. With our
Survival Service" instituted to help our GUS
toners with necessary repairs, no gas user should
have much difficulty in making gas appliances
last for the duration.

has taken care of his Legal Wife.
Don't play second fiddle to any one.

N. H. B.: My husband is kind to
me in every way. He lives a good
life. His one drawback is that he
won't give me one red penny unless
l ask for it. have to ask for every
thing l get. l have tried to show
him that other women have a little
spending money but he doesn't seem
to see the Importance of a thing
of this kind. Tell me what to do?
Ans: Your husbands virtues
Outnumber his faults by a big ma
jOrity so you can well afford to
overlook his weakness for wanting
to handle all money there in the
household. Earn the extra money
for the few simple pleasures that
you wish to enjoy. You can easily
get a part time job and it would not
interfere at all with your own
household duties.
M. W.: 1 am having trouble de-
Gliding what field of work to take up.
1 was in training for a nurse and
failed in one subject so came home.
Would you please give me some ad-
vice on what to do?
Ans: 1t was unfortunate that
you failed to pass your work but
you must not become discouraged.
Find your place in life in some other
field. Take a business course .
your parents would like to see you
trained for some specific line and
you will make a very good office

B. NJ. NJ: / would like to go in
a little business of my own and
wonder if l could have any luck.
l have some formulas I would like
to make up and sell. Also have in
mind to cut and sell quilt pieces.
l have done this work before and
made pretty good on it. Which
should l devote most of my time to I?
Ans: Formulas such as the ones
you have come a dime a dozen. 1t
would be more prudent to develop
the quilt piece business. This is a
good field and there are profits to
be made from such business. With
your business and selling ability
you should have no trouble getting
a good income from your quilt piece
business.
A. NJ: 1 am IS years old and
have a baby months old and of
course l am not married. My baby's
daddy has refused to marry me be-
fore the baby was born because he
wasn't able to support me and the
child. Now he has a good job and
wants me to marry him. Does he
really want me for a wife?
Ans: You can bet your bottom
dollar that he never would have
asked you to marry him if he didn't
mean it. You loved him enough to
have a baby for him and I'm
sure that you love your baby enough
to want him to have a father. Go
ahead and marry the boy now.
B. K: My brother is staying
with woman and 1 think she has
him fixed. l believe that he might
get hurt. This woman married one
of my brothers and they separated
and so she is staying with the other
one and we don't want him to do
that. Answer right away please.
What did she do to him?
Ans: You remember what hap
pened to Adam in the Garden of
Eden? Well, the same thing hap
pened to your brother. Women have
charm and your pleasingly plump
sister-in-law used hers on your
brother. He'll get over it SO

n. A. A. c. p. Again Fails
to Reach Melvin Mas

Representatives of the st. Paul
Branch of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People made their second unsuccess-
full attempt to secure a conference
with Congressman Melvin Hard
to-get-to) Mas two weeks ago
when the st. Paul representative
was home for several days, it was
disclosed last Tuesday.
Rev. Clarence Nelson, president
of the st. Paul branch, attempted
to get in touch with Mr.. Mas on
Thursday, Feb. 8, but was unable
to do so. When the fact was made
known to the monthly meeting of
the executive committee of the
Branch on the same night, a motion
was made to send Mr.. Mas a tele-
gram asking for an appointment.
Half of the persons present at the
Executive committee voted against
the motion, declaring that it was a
waste of time. However, the chair
man, Rev. Nelson, voted for the mo-
ton breaking the tie vote.
The following worded telegram
was sent to Mr.. Mas, in care of
Maas-Keefe Co., So East Boulevard,
st. Paul, at $40 a. m. Friday, Feb.
4:
"a committee from our
Branch desires to see you be-
fore you return to Washing
ton about legislation now pend
ing in the Congress. We will
meet you at any time and place
convenient for you. We will
expect your call"
Nothing was heard from Repre-
sentative Mas until Monday, Feb.
IA. In a letter to Rev. Nelson,
dated Feb. 10, Representative Mas
wrote as follows:
"Your telegram to me, care of
Maas-Keefe Company, reached
me the day I was leaving to
return to Washington, and it
was impossible at that time to
arrange a meeting. / endeav-
ored to reach you by phone but
without success. shall be glad
to have you write me the sub
ject matter of your desired con-
ference"
In a statement to the regular
monthly meeting of the St. Paul
Branch on Tuesday night in the
Halle Q. Brown House, Rev. Mel
son declared that Representative
Mas explanation was inadequate.
Rev. Nelson pointed out that since
Mr.. Mas says he was unable to
contact him by telephone that he

the husband in our story has never

to be as sincere and devoted as the
