Nebraska Clubs Are
Urged to Plant
Trees
Women’s clubs of Nebraska are
urged to put that state in the front
rank in the tree-planting army by
Charles Lathrop Pack, president of
the American Tree association.
He has written Mrs. Alvin Spelts of
Burwell, Neb., the state chairman of
conservation, that the association will
be glad to see Nebraska step to the
front, inasmuch as it was the home of
J. Sterling Morton, father of Arbor
day.
Mrs. Spelts is planning a conserva
tion and tree-planting program for
October. The Nebraska society of
Washington, D. C.. has planted a tree
in memory of Morton In front of the
tree association’s heaquarters on Six
teenth street. The letter to Mrs.
Spelts says:
**W« want to wslcoma all the tree
planter* to membership in the tree-plant
ing army. We are particularly anxious
for a big showing of Nebraska, since it
was the home for so many years of J.
Sterling Morton, the father of Arbor day.
“Our slogan is 'Celebrate the centennial
of Arbor day in 1972 by planting the trees
now.' and this it seema to mo every town
in Nebraska should do.
“I km quite sure that the new presi
dent of the general federation. Mrs. John
Dickinson Sherman, who has been identi
fied with conservation work for so long,
will loin with us in hoping that Nebraska
will have set a record in this regard.
“The importance of bringing to the at
tention of the people of this country the
need of reforestation cannot be over
estimated. We have 81,000.000 acres of
idle land In this country that is fit for
nothing but growing trees, and it must
be put to work.
“Every time w# find a tree planter we
feel that we have a convert to the re
forestation program which Is now going
forward since the passage of the McNary
Clarke forestry bill by the last congress.
“Our plan is to first interest people In
trees: then to interest them in the larger
phases of the subject, and, as you doubt
less know, we have the finest co-operntion
on the part of hundreds of womens clubs
throughout the country.
“CHARLES LATHROP PACK. President.
The tree association Is sending tree
planting suggestions and a tree day
program to any one who will send a
| 2-cent stamp for it. To the American
j Tree association there are no dues,
[ and the only way to join is to plant
a tree aid register it with the asso
ciation. This nearly 100,000 have
done in tw'o years.

| Youf* Problems |
Old Enough to Know His Own Mind.
Dear Miss Allen: Having written
to you before and getting such good
advice, I’m writing again to see If
you can help me out.
I am going with a young man
eight years older than myself. I’m
24. We have been going together
for over four years and I think a lot
of him, and I know he loves me, but
I don’t think he loves me enough. He
comes up once a week and I’m al
ways glad to have him come. We
never go to shows, but he takes me
to dances once in a while and some
times I go with my brother to dances.
Now, this young man wants me to
quit dancing. Do you think I ought
to give up my good times on account
of him? He never dances, so, of
course, It is tiresome for him. *
He is of a very jealous disposition
and gets very peeved If I even
speak to other boys. I have plenty
of friends, both girls and boys, and
always have a good time whenever I
am any place.
He seems to be more for his folks.
He always minds them and does all
lie can to help them out. Of course
ills folks don't love me by any means,
but we are on speaking terms. They
consider their son too good a boy for
me. So what shall I do? I love him
and can hardly go away and leave
him. He seems ail the world to me.
but, if he loves me, why does he go
with other girls, just because I’m
away visiting a couple days? Does
he really love me? I’ve thought of
this question so often?
Now, I could go away and work and
leave him, but do you think It would
do any good?
I have a boy friend In a town about
500 miles from here, who is going to
school and making it real good. He
is a year older than myself, and he
writes to me every week. Real nice,
respectable letters, which I'm proud
of. He has written and told m% he
loved me and asked me If I would
marry him as soon as he has fin
ished school. Now, I haven't taken
him seriously, as I don't know wheth
er to stick by the first one or to leave
here and go find a place to work so
I can be close to the second one.
I’m sure I'll never find a man 1
love more than I do the first one.
but I am beginning to believe he isn't
a marrying man. He always says I
wish we were married, but, as it Is,
I haven't anything to start out with.
Now, 1 know he has, as they are ail
well off.
So, what shall I do? Try to stick
it out four more years or let him go?
We are not engaged.
Thanking you for your kind advice,
DORTHEA.
You seem to be a provident soul,
not wishing to let go of one man until
sure you have another within your
grasp! But that isn’t the way to
measure things. Do you really care
for your eight-year older beau well
enough to give up something he
doesn’t like?
He doesn’t sound .very reasonable
to me A man of 32 ought to know
his own mind well enough to make
himself understood. If he wants to
marry you he has had time enough in
four years to ask you. And If lie isn't
going to marry you, he has no right
to demand that you give up a harm
less recreation for his sake, (t as
aume you do not make a harmful
recreation out of dancing.)
"Whatever else you do, don't get a
Job so you can "he close to the sec
one one." No man likes to he sought
that vigorously.
It Is only fair to you that you have
an understanding with Hie Aral man.
You might tell him you would be
willing lo give up dancing for him
If you expected to marry him and
spend the rest of your life with him
But he ought to be made to under
stand that It would he unfair to you
to give up all your other friends Dnd
ell prospect of marriage and a home
Of your own to saatlsfy the wishes
of a man w'ho doesn't care enough
about you to aak you to marry him
after you have been going together
for four years. Tills may waks him
tip. If It does not, It will not he too
soon for you to find out Just where
you stand with him.
I m rather hurt for you that his
I eopla think Iheir son Is loo good for
V"U Why do they feel so’ Don't
Mm always conduct yourself proper
*J ' °'* are ihey Just the old fssh
lone,) kind who see evil In all forms
of pleasure, especially dancing1

How Madge Helped Leila with Bees
Dean.
Katherine and I did not have as
long a vigil over Mollie Fawcett as I
expected.
Lillian appeared at the farmhouuse
in less lhan 24 hour* after the girl
had fled back to the farmhause chok
ing with terrified sobs over the ulti
matum the mysterious man had
given her, and announced her inten
tion of taking Siollie to New York
with her.
“It's too late for a train tonight,"
she said, “and I want to be in New
York long before that first train out
of here In the morning arrives there.
I know you can't drive in the city,
Madge, but couldn't you take us as
far as Babylon or thereabouts? Then
we could get an early train into
the city. If we start at daylight—”
—“We can, start before.” I inter
rupted her, “and I have a better
plan than Babylon. I'll drive you as
far as Marvin—I ought to see Mrs.
Durkee. anyway. Y’ou and Miss Faw
cett can go on to the city and I’ll
leave the car at the Durkees and
follow you later. You don’t need me
for anything, do you?"
“Not before 3 o'clock this after
noon,” she answered. “You must
be at your apartment by then. But
your before-daylight stunt is all to
the mustard. Where do I sleep?"
Characteristically she said nothing
more of her plans, but I noticed an
odd restralnst in the attitude of Mol
lie Fawcett toward the older woman.
It was as if the girl actually feared
Lillian, and this attitude persisted
all through the journey, one of the
swiftest I ever had made in my car.
"Remember, no later than 3," Lil
lian said as I left her and Mollie at
the Mgrvln station and turned my
car toward the Durkee home.
We had started so early that there ,
was no one tip at the Durkee house
hold save Edith Fairfax. She greeted .
me warmly—the compact I made]
with her to .guard Leila from Hess
Dean's malicious maneuvering has !
materially lessened the restraint
which the knowledge of her feeling
for Dicky always has put between
us—and Edith delightfully exclaimed
over the earliness of my call.
"You don't mean you’ve driven In
front the farm at this hour?” she said
and at my affirmative, caught my
hand with the exuberant concerned
hospitality of the southern bred worn
an, drew me swiftly into the kitchen
and poured me a cup of coffee.
"I shouldn't have touched a. mor
sel if you had led me out of the
kitchen," I said, taking the cup of
steaming coffee from her hand. "How
are they?"
"Mrs. Durkee is getting along beau
tifully." she answered. "Her visit to
Aunt Dora helped her convalescent"
wonderfully. And Leila Is all right
physically, but I was just about to
write and ask you to run over."
An Unexpected Ring.
I set down my cup of coffee abrupt
ly.
"Tou mean Bess Dean," I Interro
gated sharply.
She nodded soberly.
"I thought I would be able to
handle her, but she seems possessed,
and rebuffs that would sorely humlll
ate an ordinary girl appear to roll
right off her,” Edith sighed. "I’m
at my wits’ end!
"Bess Dean has a little car now,"
Leila hurried on, "and every Satur
day morning she appears with some
present for Mrs. Durkee; fruit cr
flowers or something—Insists upon
executing some shopping commission
for us in the city, parks the car
here for the day, takes the train with
Alfred, and although I believe the
I oor boy really does try to dodge
her, half the time succeeds In getting
the same train back.

.“There's only one redeeming fea
ture.'* she went on. “Leila know* ft
is all Bess, that Alf really isp't re
sponsible. But I don't know how
long Leila is going to keep on be
lieving it, snd in her rondition the
performance is impossible, anyway."
"It's worse than that," I said, my
voice trembling with anger, and then
there was no chance to say any
thing more, for Mrs. Durkee, a
charming convalescent, rushed Into
the kitchen, and put her arms around
me. chattering volubly, and a few
minutes later I>eila, lovely but pale,
and Alfred, royally friendly, followed
her.
We were almost through breakfast
when the doorbell rang, and I saw
an odd little look travel around the
table.
“Is that Bess Dean?" I asked
thing determinedly.
"Yes.” Leila whispered, looking a*,
me.
"Out of My Way!”
"I am going to let her in," I said,
"and I am going to ask every one of
you- to keep silent, no matter what
you hear me say.”
I looked steadily at Alfred as I
spoke, and any doubt^ of him I
may have had were relieved by his
hearty: *
'Go as far as you like, old dear."
Waiting for no further permis
sion, I walked to the front door,
opened it and confronted Bess Dean.
"Well! Look who's here!" she ex
claimed Jauntily then her eye* ,nar
rowed as she saw my set face.
"Come In—this far," I saltf re
treating before her, until I barred
ber passage to the dining room.
‘.‘Now I am going to give you an Inc
portant bit of Information Tou have
made your last visit to this house.
You have seen Alfred Durkee for
the last Ime, and you will drop this
asinine pursuit of him at once."
Her merry nonchalance slipped
from her a* if It were a cloak, and
It was suddenly a wild cregture
that face me.
“Get out of my way before I
scratch your eyes out!" she said,
and meant it.
"Very well, if you must have it,"
I said slowly, stepping aside from
the door. "But If you pass this
door I shall, go In and tell them
why you were discharged from the
faculty of that girls school concern
ing which you have spun so many
pleasant yarns for our edification.'
"The Old Hag!”
She stopped as if my words had
been so many bullets, and I paid a
menial tribute to the will-power that
enabled her to conquer her palpable
desire to spring .upon me. and to
mask her baffled anger with a non
chalant smile.
“You seem to hold trumps In this
particular game," she said. “But re
member that there are other games,
you—you sneaking spy"
Her self-control failed her before
she finished, and she hurled the last
words at me. Then she turned, and
slamming the door after her, ran
down the steps.
I felt a sudden reluctance to face
Alfred, wondering how he would re
act to the thing I had done. But,
even as we heard the vicious starting
of Bess Dean’s motor, Alfred ap
peared in the doorway, with his arm
arouitd Leila, while his mother and
Edith crowded close to his shoulder.
"You certainly have don# ua a
great aervlce, Mr*. Madge," he said
gravely, "but-"
Dlttl# Mr*. Durke# Interrupted
him ruthlessly,
"Madge' However, did you know
that about her?"
"I didn't," I answered quietly.
They all stared, and then Alfred
•burst Into a great laugh with so
relieved a note In It that I realized
he had wondered for an instant If 1
had played the role which Bess Dean
had thrust upon me at parting.
"The old gag, by George!" he ex
claimed. “Fly at once. Everything
Is discovered! Well, you certainly
deserve the laurel wreath, old top!"
