SACK. .. ■HH! L i y Make Hint Choose. Dear Mias Allen: I am a girl of 18 and am very much puzzled. A fellow of 21 had been coming all sum mer to see another girl who stays at the same plaoe I do. And when I arrived he still came, but his affec tions seem more tor me, although he has never openly said so. But just the way he looks and acts towards me, 1 feel he cares for me more, al though he treats the other girl with seeming affection. I am deeply in love with him and am perplexed as to what to do, as 1 would hate to offend this other girl, feeling that she loves him too. lie doesn’t seem to have much class or style about him, and that is one thing the other girl has against him. But X love him anyway, not for clothes, but for himself, although 1 have been used to the best of every thing all my life. My folks do not know anything about lilm, as I have not felt sure of myself on account of this other girl. 1 greatly fear my folks would object to 1dm. Now, what shall I do? Shall l tell my father or what? DISTRACTED. I can’t see that you have anything to tell your folks. Do you "hang around" when he comes to see this other girl? It Is a caddish tiling for one girl to try to take away another's beau. Often times a i»oor sort of man will play two girls against each other, hoping to make them jealous and consequent ly more attentive to him. X hardly think this man Is that kind. How ever, It Is your duty to keep away from him as long as he seems to care for the other girl. Make him quit going with her If he wants to go with you. He ought to choose. If he likes her best, all right, (live him up and forget about him. But if you really care for him and he comes to a realization that he likes you, you are within your rights to accept his attention and let him go with you, hut not while he is courting, or at least calling on the other girl. Proving His Love. Dear Miss Allen: A year ago 1 met a girl In our neighborhood and grew to love her. And she told me she loved me. Before very long her family moved away and she went with them. We wrote letters to each other for a while. Then, about a month ago, she asked me not to write any more to her about love. She said 1 might write her just friendly letters. I asked her whether there- was another man, but she said she didn’t love any one. Shall X drop her acquaintance or shall I write her Juit. as a friend? Ij love her very much. Her mother and father appnrve of me. Please tell me how I can win back her love. A. D. Why not write the young woman just what you feel? If you love her and are ip a position to make a home for her, ask her to be your wife. Ask whether she does not feel that In time she can learn to love you. She may have the idea that you are writing serious things to her without a serious thought In your heart. It can do no harm to let her know how you really feel about her. Then, at least, she will be convinced that you are sincere. E. G.: Contrary to decrees of ro mance. love doesn't always know its own at first sight. Often It steals gradually Into the heart. And seme times it’s not easy to know whether it is love or just friendship that brings the glow of happiness. On the other hand, much that calls itself “love,at first sight,” is not love, but only a <rheap and fleeting counter feit. Prominent Woman Here Monday One of tlie foremost women In the country.

The Astonndlng Thing of Which Katie Accused Gee Chow If there Is anything more grate ful to one's olfactory nerves than the odor of “pirate steaks,” twirl ing on sticks before a campfire I have yet to discover It. Despite tl)e worries of the day, or perhaps because of them, I found myself as hungry as Katie had ex pressed herself to be In the banal Jest which had so convulsed the children a few minutes before. I knew that the children were raven ous also, and I was proud of the patience which even my little lad displayed, while watching the sticks skewered with alternate slices of steak, bacon and onion, which we turned every two minutes in order to perserve the even broiling. At last I gave the signal to Katie, who slipped away and in a trice had the rest of the viands unpacked and laid upon the cloth. She then brought to me a pile of the parch ment plates and paper napkins which we always use for our picnic dinners. But when I started to slip off segments of the "pirate steaks" from one of the sticks. Dee Chow stepped forward, and with a firm authority which would have ap peared impertinence in anyone else took the stick from my hands. “Dee Chow do. Boss lady not do," he said. “Boss lady show Lee Chow way.” • "Just put a portion on each plate,” I said a bit shortly, for he was be ginning to get a bit on my nerves. “Katie will give each of us some bread-and-butter sandwiches and some chicken.” •'Want potatoes and clams now?” he asked, while I reflected with a touch of dismay that the addition of the clams made our feast an un* wieldy one. The Picnic Dinner. “No,” I decided awlftly, "not the clams for a while, and we won’t put the corn over to boil. We'll carry It home and cook It there. But you may rake out the potatoes now if you wish, and then when wo’ve cleared our plates anyone who wishes clams may eat them." The cold chicken, the sizzling broiled steak, and the ash-roasted potatoes seasoned with butter and salt, satisfied my hunger to reple tion, but I found that the old adage concerning the hollowness of boys applied not only to my small son, but to Marion and Katie as well. They ate straight through every Item upon our camp menu. Junior only being limited by my caution concerning the clams, of which 1 Allowed him only a few, and I knew (hat they deeply regretted my decision to omit the corn. Lee Chow, on the other hand, was most abstemious. Jle would have touched nothing only for my urging, and ho confined hie menu to the "pirate steak” and the pota toes, be.wowing a laconic but hearty “ver’ good” upon the broiled meat. And when at last even Katie an nounced herself satisfied, he went swiftly about the business of clearing up and repacking our motor kit, as If he had been attached to the household for years. Katie stretched herself lazily and grinned at me with unconscious im pudence. "I tink I be fine lady now,” she said. "Can I take dot ba-bee und go valk on beach?” “Dot Chink Poison Baboo!” “If you’re careful not to get out of hearing,” I assented, while Jun ior gravely admonished Katie to her great delight that "cans are for to matoes, you should say ’may.’ ” ”Vot you tink of dot ba-bee, so ■mart already,, he tell hee» Katie how to talk." my little maid ex claimed, her pride in her amall charge vibrant in every Inflection ‘‘Coom along, ba-bee, mabs ve find some nice sheila and flowers. Marlon you vant to coom too?" “You couldn't keep me away.” Marlon laughed, "unless”—with a quick look at me—"you need me Auntie Madge." "Indeed I don’t," I assured her quickly. "I’m going to have a nice little rest while you are gone. I can only give you half an hour, however, for we must start home by then.” Gravely Marlon consulted her ser viceable little wrist-watch of which she is inordinately proud. "I’ll bring them back exactly on time," she promised, and In another minute the three had disappeared around the curve In the beach. I was looking after them with the tingle of uneaslnss which always conies to me whenever Junior is qjt of my sight, and did not notice Lee Chow until he appeared at my side bearing a seat from the car, and some cushions. He placed the seat against the sloping bank In such a fashion that it made a com fortable reclining chair, and laid the pillows above It. "Boss lady better sit here," he said, and I thankfully accepted his thoughtful provision, for I was be coming conscious of weariness and was glad of the prospect of a com fortable half-hour relaxation. Jt was a prospect which never materialized, however, for I had been settled only a few minutes be fore I was frightened almost Into insensibility by Katie’s wild shrieks and the sight of my little maid running across the beach with Jun nor In her arms. "I told you dot Chink poison ba hee! Let me at heem! I keel! I keel!” College Club Observes Book Week.
