She thinks she owns me. Now, I've passed the word along and most of the fellows I know tell the aame story. It makes some of them sore and makes some of them grin, but all of them wonder how It is that when a fellow is about 25, goes around with a girl of about 20 (object matrimony) she thinks she has to run him and tell him how to do a lot of things he man aged to handle very well before he set eyes on her. What puzzles me is whether after marriage this is going to develop into nagging, or whether it is just a girl's way when she likes to show the world that she's got a fellow lashed to the mast. Will you supply the answer, Martha Allen? JAY. The girl "thinks"—she doesn't know, but imagines and so fortifies her own doubts by acting twice as sure as she really is! Perhaps she wants to pa rade her conquest before the world and her own uncertain heart. This may well be why she fusses a bit and advises a bit and does all in her power to make you and herself fee! that you are dependent on her. The average fine woman Just has to "mother" a man a bit when she cares for him tenderly and sweetly. So, since a girl can't cook your meals and regulate your home life, she eagerly handles a few details that come with in her grasp and scope She Isn't neees sary to you, and so she makes a great to-do about the little things where she Is able to persuade herself that her Judgment will help you. Dear Miss Allen: \ am 17 and hava gone with boys some, but don't care for them. They keep on asking me to go to places and I tell them i don't want to. How can I stop them TROUBLED. I don't understand you. Most gills of 17 enjoy the company of boys about their own age. When they say they don’t. I think either they are not tell ing me the truth or they are different from the average girl. I am inclined to think, you are not telling me the truth, for If you were just “different" you wouldn't lie enough interested to write me for advice. But if you are sincere, and don't want to go with the hoys. Just tell them so, simply and kindly, and they will soon come to know that it is no use to ask you. Rut beware. You may he sorry if To scores of ambitious young men and women who are completing or leaving school this will mean the begin ning of a successful business career—a summer of learning and profit. Boyles College is the accredited Commercial College of this terri tory. It is one of the oldest and best known institutions of learning in Omaha. The Summer Classes offer instruction in the best meth ods known to modem business.

Will Spend Summer in Honolulu Miss Jean Palmer, who graduates lids week as president of her class , from Bryn Mawr, will return to Oma ha in three weeks, bringing with her Miss Martha Cooke. Later they will leave to spend the summer in Miss Cooke's home in Honolulu. Miss Palmer will return to Omaha In Oc tober. Her mother, Mrs. George Palmer, who has been In the east for the commencement exercises, will return to Omaha next week. Mrs. Benjamin Harwood and daugh ter of New York, are guests of Miss Louise Dietz at the Blackstone. none of them care to go with you any more. My dear friend: I am working In an office and one of the men, who is much older, has taken a liking to me. His wife is going away next week and he has asked to take me out with him. Would it be all right for me to go with him? I get lonesome. I am i not In love with him. NELLIE. You are In a very dangerous sltua- | tion and don't seem to realize It. Married men who aek young business girls to go places with him when the wife is away are bad men, and girls who associate with them suffer. They lose their reputations, if nothing I worse. I wish I could say words strong enough to make you realize your mistake If you go with him. You would much rather go with a nice young man your own age. Walt for him and let this other man know you are not deceived by his objectionable attention. \ If School of Individual Instruction Accredited to the University of Nebraska 402 South 36th Street Harney 2949 Omaha, Nebraska.

Boyles College Summer School Indications point to a record breaking attendance of the Boyles college summer school, according to Mr. Boyles, president. "The interest manifested by young men and women," says Mr. Boyles, "proves that young people have come 'to a sharp realization of the value of time in securing an education. Many of these young people are either grad uating or leaving high school this year, and. the fact that they are go ing to make the summer a profitable one by preparing for good positions instead of idling away the summer, Is a good Indication that young men and women are making the most of their opportunities." Mr. Boyles spent the greater part of last winter visiting leading educa tional institutions and expects to profit by this exchange of ideas In greater efficiency and modern meth ods, MIDLAND C0LLE6E Summer Session June 9 to August 1 Normal, College and Preparatory Courses Dr. J.F.
