Martha Allen PROBLEMS THAT PERPLEX. “What la happiness?" asks Joan In her letter, and adds, “I haven't been able to find it.” Perhaps this girl, like a good many other*, hasn t yet realized that there is no happi ness In having or in getting, but only in giving. Happiness is attained by full use of powers in unselfish service. It doesn't seem to be found In the possession of something. Of course, some measure happiness by various things they seek. One girl might long for luxury In the way of beautiful clothes and yet another find real joy In the .artistic things about her such as the drama or music. Joan, you'll have to decide lust what is going to satisfy you in this life and go after it. When you get what you’re after then you will tlnd happiness in one way, the happiness of achievement. But if you have already found what you sought and are still unhappy then begin to look around you. Others may be striving for something and If you ran help them to their goal you will prob ably find happiness. There are so many roads to happi ness it is hard to name them. Place others' wishes above yours and you may And what you arc seeking. The basis of happiness is usually in a satisfaction of higher intellectual kind. Happiness In viewed from some worthy consideration or satisfaction. THE NEBBS— WHERE. IGNORANCE IS BLISS.

Happiness cannot be passed to you on a silver plate. You have to work for it and reach high while you're working. I*; You are very foollah to let lack of Interest in your school work keep you from graduating in the spring. If you get good marks when you study let your pride keep you going instead of studying only at in tervals. Never give up when you are so near the goal. It is impossible to tell you how to become interested In your work. , That is something you can do if you'll Just realize that in later years you’ll thank yourself for getting yoOr diploma. You may need that piece of paper to exhibit when you want a certain job. Worried: Silver for the dinner par ty depends upon what food you plan to serve. A dessert fork is placed on the table with all the other silver to be used. Question of bread and but ter plates or small butter dishes Is a matter of choice. Adele Garrison “My Husband’* Love” Madge Was Not Sure What OiQftln terview Accomplished. I had a distinct qualm of uneasi ness as I hurled at Dicky the in ference that Alfred's car had been wrecked on a Joy ride in which ®e, Alfred. Bess Dean and some other girl had been participants. From many little things which I saw and heard at the Durkee home, I was rea sonably certain that Bess, Alfred and Dicky shared the knowledge of the car "laid up for repairs,” in Alfred's mild phraseology, but my words, ■'and the other charmer” had been pure invention, and behind my mask of apparent anger I watched Dicky narrowly for the effect of the accusa tion. Instantly, however, X saw that the wild arrow had struck home. For a second h^ forgot even to be angry in his absolute amazement. "What the-" he stammered, "How did-” "I know that?” X finished sweetly. “My dear Dicky, consider! Would you have me betray a confidence?" ‘‘Bess'” he exclaimed as if in sud den enlightenment, then bit back the word and tried to cover it by a crack ling volley of abjurgatlons. But it had been uttered, and I permitted myself a mental chuckle. I would be no match for Dicky in a battle of wits for which he was prepared, but I had taken him off his guard, and that, with an uneasy conscience, had put him at a distinct disadvantage. K suited me perfectly, however, to have him believe that Bess Dean had told me of the escapade, even while pre tending to him and Alfred that my knowledge would mean Leila's. I had a distinct memory of a warning I had overheard my former colleague give Alfred. It was no part of my* plan, how ever. to give Dicky any tlrtfe to rally his deductive powers. I meant to keep the game in my hands as long as possible. "The source of my information isn't important,” I said loftily. “Neither, to me, is the fact that you were present upon the expedition which left the car in a Farmingdale garage, or was it an Amltyville one? Alfred had It located in both places, when he was trying to give ms a plausible reason for the car's absence. Oenerator trouble, I believe he said. I am passing these facts on to you in order to save you the trouble of in venting new ones.” The volley of shrapnel broke over my bead again, but I paid no atten tion to it. “But there is one thing of vital im portance,” I continued in even, emo tionless tones, “and that is L<ei!a’s peace of mind. Dr. Bralthwaite evi dently considers that her condition, physical and nervous, demands the utmost care. His request that I tell him everything I knew concerning things which might have affected her was virtually a command. That Leila's happiness is being affected by Bess Deans pursuit of Alfred is evi dent to everybody except two such blind bats as you and Alfred—I am giving you both the benfit of the be lief that you would not willingly wound her—and I had no hesitancy in telling him all I knew or suspected concerning that girl's maneuvers!. “I suppose Alfred is as furious at file for the revelation as you are. if. as I suppose, you have told him that 1 am responsible for Dr. Braithwaite's knowledge But for that I do not care, any more than I care for your anger, or Bess Dean s rage when she finds out, as she eoon must, that 1 have blocked her little game, fty after your brother in law gels through with Me and Mine I .— ■ 1 By fyiggs VsM f\~r Tirvte. /*" * ’N H/SV/S You LET Mt (SeoRfiE *?
