Fiance Fails to Put in an Appearance;
Should She Demand Explanation?
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Dear Miss Fairfax: X read your column every day and find that you
give aome wonderful advice. What should a hope chest contain?
Than I am deeply in love with a young man who has asked mo to mar
ry him. He has blue eyes, has a fair complexion and blonde hair, the same
ax I have. He lives in Omaha at the present time and is a good worker.
Would it be wrong for me to write to him asking for an explanation for not
coming over after me Sunday as he invited me over to his sister's home for
dinner? I have not heard from him since last Tuesday and am getting
anxious to hear from hint.
Alto, would it be wrong for me to go out with other boy friends as we
are not publicly engaged yet? He doesn’t want me to, and says he doesn t
go out. with other girls or his mother would tell me. He never tells any
good reason why he never keeps his promises. He ha* kept steady company
with me since January 1. and I have grown to love him dearer and dearer
every day. He is four years my senior; is that too much difference in ages.
I also wish to get a college education and he doesn't seem to think I ought
He never got much schooling as his father died when he was quite
voung and he has had to help his mother make a living. He is the only
child at home in his family and is the youngest also. He has two sisters
married, also a step sister married, and has a full brother and a half brother
married and only his youngest sister and her husband get along a bit good.
I have no reason whatever to doubt this young man's word as he tells
me he loves me as he never loved a girl before and X think the world of him.
T know it would break my heart, to lose him now ?s he means so much to
me. I have promised to marry him. . .
I am about 6 feet 3 inches tall and weigh about 12.. pounds. Is that too
heavy for my height? He Is about 5 feet 4 inches and weighs around 140 I
think. If my letter la not too long I would like to see It in print in The
Morn.cg Bee as soon as possible as I am very anxious to hear your aduce.
ShuuM 1 wait for him to write or not? Thanking you for y°u^ advi« 1 am
anxiously waiting as ’ 1 '. .
p. 8.: I love dancing and music. Could, you tell me any of the latest
pieces for dancing? . . 1i7
You believe in getting all the in
formation you can get while you re
at It. don't you. Well, here is my
advice. By all means go to college.
After four years of college influence
1 think you will find yourself admir
ing' a very different type of man
than the, one you are now engaged
to. I)) fact, you will be laughing at
the insipid youth you now admire.
Really. Blonde, this ia nothing but
infatuation. Certainly not love. And
you will be infatuated with many
men before you find the right one.
Of course, he should have escorted
you to his sister's house Sunday hut
very probably ho didn't know that
he was expected to call for you. He
may be very hurt because, you didn't
come. You'd better get in touch with
jlim in some way.
No, four years isn't too much dif
ference in your ages. You really
shouldn't go out with other boys if
you are engaged, but It makes it
rather embarrassing to be always re
fusing invitations for no reason at
all. apparently.
Of course. I do not know how old
jou are but if you are about high
school age as I judge you are from
>UUX iciuri , —
pounds. A difference of 10 pounds,
though, makes no material differ
ence.
A hope chest should contain one
dozen pillow eases, eight sheets, two
pairs of blankets, one comforter, and
one spread, by way of bedding. 1 ou
should have perhaps half dozen each j
of hand towels, bath towels, guests,
lowels and tea towrls, two bath mals.j
and any number of dish elolhs and
wash cloths. Then of course you will
need lingerie and linen table cloths.,
napkins, lunch cloths, centerpieces,
doilies; and bureau scarfs. Of course,
the contents of a hope chest vary
according to the home the owner will
have.
For information regarding the late
dance music send me a stamped ad
dressed envelope and repeat your
question or write any music shop.
Out-of-Town Guests.
A party of 20 young people will
motor Sunday from Oakland and
Lyons, Neb., to be the guests for
the day of Mr. and Mrs. Thor Jor
gensen at the Jorgensen summer
home. ^

Returned From Philippines
Mrs. McDonald Experiences Two Typhoons and an Earth
quake but No Cyclones or Blizzards—Meet*
Governor General and Mrs. Wood. rSUH*
Mis. Henry
S. McDonald
who returned
Tuesday from a
10-month trip
to the Philip
pines, experi
enced two ty
phoons, and an
earthquake but
no cyclones or
blizzards ac
cording to her
own word.
M r *. M c
Donald visited
her daughter,
Mrs. Charles
Fossum of Ma
nila who was
formerly
Miss Ruth Mc
Donald. .Mr.
Fossum is as
sociated with a
large lumber
concern in the
Islands.
Judge and
Mrs. C. S. I,o
bingier, former
Omahans, en
tentained Mrs,
McDonald in
Shanghai. Miss
Esther Thomas,
now on a world
tour, was her
hostess in Hono
lulu and Otis
Taylor of Madison, Neb., now or Lon
don, gave a dinner for her in Manila,
where he was a visitor at the time.
When the ‘'Empress of France”
was in Manila on its world cruise,
Mrs. McDonald met the Nebraskans
who, with the other passengers,
were quite elaborately entertained
here. Among them were Judge and
Mrs. Munger of Lincoln, parents of
A1 Munger of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs.
•Sam Mort, Mrs. Margaret Heafy and
Miss Florence Dunn of this city. En
route home. Mrs. McDonald visited
Mrs. Ben Funk (Elolse Jenks) at
Winnipeg, Canada.
The friendly spirit among th» 5.000
Americans in Manila inipiesstd Mrs.
McDonald. There are continual so
cial gaieties, country clubs with golf
courses and tennis courts, and swim
ming in pools and in the bay at
certain seasons.
"The men work as hard as our men
do. harder because of the weather,
their hours being from $ to 5, but
the women have a wonderful time,"
said Mrs. McDonald. "Native help
is easily obtained and no woman can
afford not to have at least two ser
vants. The servants arc paid so much
for their work and given an extra,
allowance for their native food. They
do not eat the American dishes.”
Mrs. McDonald's earthquake shook
itself in l’aguio, a mountain resort
where Manikins go during the hot
months of April and May. There, too,
one of the typhoons spent its fury.
For four days wind and rain raged.
For the same length of time, Mrs.
McDonald was in a typhoon on her
passage over on the "President Lin
coln."
"Everybody likes Governor General
and Mrs. Leonard Wood,” said Mrs.
McDonald, who met them on several
occasions. She was guest at a tea at
the old Spanish palace occupied by
the Woods. It is a very beautiful
building, according to Mrs. McDonald.
The walls are decorated with old
Spanish drawings.

people among the Americans, mingle
in the game social life.
Dainty linen handkerchiefs embroid
ered by the Philippine women, are
among the souvenirs brought home
by the traveler. No duty is re
quired on articles from the Islands.
When seen Thursday, Mrs. McDon
ald was wearing a becoming straw
hat of black and white braid which
was made to order in Manila from the
native hemp. Her sport skirt was a
most attractive mandarin in the rich
fuchsia and blue shades. Her brace
lets were of black coral ornamented
with thin, crossed copper wires.
Jade is tie rage in the orient and
beads are sold everywhere.
Shanghai is quite modern, being!
a port city. There is the old and
the new Shanghai. People there are I
either Chinese or “foreigners.” The
foreigners all live in one locality]
known as “The Foreign Concession."
To Identify yourself as an American
would be considered slighting to other
foreigners, Chinese names such ss
Shanghai and Canton are accented on
the last syllable.
The Inland sea. between Shanghai
and ivoue, part oi tne cnmu era, » in
the most perfect scenery Mrs. Mc
Donald saw abroad, she said. "It is
the Thousand Islands over many
times.” '
Kxeept for an old fortified palace
surrounded by a, moat, Tokio im
pressed Mrs. McDonald ns very mod
ern. “If it were not for the little
brown men, you would not know it to
be a Japanese city." Mrs. McDonald
went over Via San Francisco and the
southern route, stopping nt Honolulu.
She returned the northern way. land
ing at Seattle from where sho vis
ited Vancouver and Victoria in
British Columbia, taking the Ca
nadian Pacific home with stops at
Lake Louise, Banff and Winnipeg.
