Adele Garrison “My Husband's Love” The New* Dicky . Diplomatically Broke to Madge. Oh! What was that?" T raised my head from Dicky's arm, purposely simulating startled l i isi-.vr from sleep at the sound of the slamming door, and Mrs. Marks’ noisy humming progress down the hall. "Only that female chimpanzee next door rolling In from her 'marketing expedition.’ ” Dicky's voice imitated tiiat of Mrs. Marks a tow hours be fore with ludicrous fUlility. "J'll bet she's acquired an extra package be sides her groceries.”, "It sounds that way." 1 acquiesced promptly with a little twinge of con science. for 1 l*ne\v that my flam boyant neighbor’s slam of tlie door end noisy humming were not signs of intoxication, but signals to me that at last her frightened vigil in my darkened kitchen was ended, and Hie coast was clear. Hut 1 guessed that she Infinitely would prefer Dicky's surmise to his knowledge of the truth, and I elaborated a bit on m.v answer. "Poor thing'" 1 conuniserated. with a demure note in my voice. "I think I'd acquire a ‘package.’ too. if 1 pos sessed a husband like hers." "What! No likes Petey?" Dicky’s., voice expressed the utmost astonish irtent. "Why, 1 gathered that Petty was the snake's shins in the neighbor line, and that yimr sociological mind intended to make—" "Do siiut lip," I retorted, laughing saucily mi at him, “and let me go to sleep. 1 was almost off when Mrs. Marks began her solo." “\ ou Know You’ve Won.” "I know it. darn her hide," Dicky said resentfully. ' But she didn't do any teal harm, for I am really sleepy now," 1 argued. "And I feel so much better, the pain Is all gone. So if you'll just fix this pillow and open the window and turn off the light, you can go back to your own room with a clear conscience for ] shall be asleep Inside of two min utes. Thank you so much, dear. Good night. And in the morning I'll start hunting another apartment. Truly, I will.” Dicky looked down at me, a queer dancing light in his eyes. “What a consummate little fraud you are:'1 he said with a distinct note of admiration in liis tone. "You know you've won this argument, hands down, y et you pass me a piece of un adulterated hunk like that. Nay, nay. Kittle one. I hope I know when I'm licked, and the timekeeper counted 10 quite a spell ago, before you got this indigestion thing, even. You sec, every word of your lecture tonight was gospel truth, only I was too mulish to admit it.. We'll stay right here, only lay off the Marks family as much as you decently can. 1 know you can't ignore 'em entirely, hut—” “I’ll try not to have them to dinner more than once a week,” I returned demurely. \n Amusing Missile. ‘‘Well. 1 suppose I'll have to be eon tent with that," he countered. “Good night, sweetheart," "Good night." I mummed sleepily, and indeed I was sound asleep by the time Dicky had reached his own room. * It iv.is broad daylight wlo-n I awoke the next morning. Indeed, so bright were the rays of the sun streaming in through tho win dows fronting the street that 1 looked at my wrist watch and found that it ivas almost II o'clock. There lias no sound front Dicky's room and 1 was just about to call hint when I espied a targe piece of heavy drawing paper folded into a cocked hat perched on the telephone receiver. I jumped out of bed with an antici patory little smile, for my artist hus band delights in sending uir whiinsi cal messages, T'nrolding it, after I had snuggled down in my pillows again, 1 found a gorgeous colored cartoon of Dicky and me. I. with hand under my cheek, was lying on a couch, ap parently sound asleep. From my open mouth there issued a succession of ZZ Z Z's, while above me Dicky was ringing a huge bell, and holding an alarm clock close to my ear. Be neath it, in Dicky's characteristic cliicgrnphy, were the words: "You were so absorbed in the lum ber business when 1 awoke this morn ing that it seemed a pity to waken you. Therefore. I went out to break fast and on to the studio. Give me a ring when you wake up. ami we'll dlsi Uts the best place for ilinuer 1o night. Always yours. D.'' I laughed tenderly over the missive, looked it over again, then Jumped out of bed. slipped on my mules and negli gee. and hurried to the telephone. But even before 1 reached It. its bell rang shrilly, and taking down thp receiver I heard Dicky's voice si|iiahbling with the operator over the slowness in get ting our number. Copyright, 1933.

Dear Miss Fairfax: L am coming to you to obtain some of your ad vice so as to help me over the hard spots of my >oung girl's life. 1 am a fairly good looking girl of 15. 1 am a sophomore at Centra! High. Now. my mother let me go with hoys of about 17 or IS for a while. Then she derided that they were too old for me to be running around with. Sli© hollered and said it would be all right if they took me to a show that was a short distance from tip* house and not down Low i Ho, as these boys never suggested (although I ex plained). anything but down town shows. I dropped them, as I could not accept these dates. Now I havo found n boy of my own age who is a sophomore at Tech High. Kvory once in a while I am asked to accept a date with this boy. Mother always refuses. She will not let me out of her wight after supper, nor will she let the boy* come here. I am just wondering if you couldn't tell me some reason for this’.* I have done no wrong nor have 1 been going away lately. As ever, yours, JtU'i:. ’ There is only one reason that 1 can see, dear child. You have u sensible mother, who'undoubtedly thinks you are too young to go out with the boys. ■ Friendless: Some folks “make friends" easily. Hut they lose them with the same celerity with which ters from girls who tell about the same stoi y—they go to dances, meet men. have a happy eteuing of utten lion and adulation—and that is the end of the matter. Home of th<- girls fancy they lose out because they will not permit a stray caress or two. Home of them imagine that on es corting them home and seeing the cheat* neighborhood in which they live, the men lose interest. Home in sist that they were too shv lo en courage the friendship properly. And they—1 think—come nearest the truth. Friendship doesn't leap into being through a few dances and the ex change of a bit of badinage, it is posslblt to lay the foundations for friendship in the mutual attraction of one enjoyable meeting, but unless the attraction of a llrst meeting is very strung, or a bond of mutual in terest is discovered, that first meet ing may easily be the last if chance doesn't take a hand. The girl who holds a worth-while man's interest must make him feel that she is worth while, that know lug her will enrich his life, that she iK a friend worth cultivating. The laughter and chaff in which girls indulge lo make themselves charming at dances and dinners, serves to pass a delightful evening and somllmes stimulates a man to seek further acquaintance. But the busy man. the man with responsibili ties. won't try to build up anything lasting on a casual flirtation of an evening's duration. And the butter fly man knows that there are plenty of other stimulating meetings ahead. Most of us are lonely and looking for real friends The girl who is a* much interested in I he man as in herself, is the girl who makes a last ing appeal BARNEY GOOGLE— SPARKY SEES HIS OATS, BUT THAT’S ALL.
