Francis of New York City, who happens to be white wrote Senator Bilbo protest ing against the announced filibus ter on the anti-poll tax bill. In the course of her letter she men tioned that she had several relat ives in Mississippi. In reply, Senator Bilbo stated that the only way to prevent a fil ibuster would be to get he suppor ters of the anti-poll tax bill to withdraw it.

GEORGIA Mrs. X.—My husband has been honorably discharged from the Navy. He’s been home 4 weeks. Last week he found a letter that a young man wrote to me. This fellow has been trying to get mo to go out with him on dates before my husband retuTned but I never consented to it. The letter he wrote, he was trying to make me see where he meant so much to me. But I don’t care for him but now my husband believes that I do and also believes I went out on dates with him. HOw can I show him his mistake? Ans: The one thin gevery ser viceman has a right to expect and demand of his wife is that she re main faithful to him while he is away. And that means.... that no flirtations no matter how small Or how trivial can be encouraged or condoned. You had no business ac cepting a letter from this boy even though you were innocent of any wrong dnoig. Your husband knows from the tone of the letter that you had not been unfaithful. Nev ertheless, he is disappointed. You must prove to him by your ac tions from now on that you are a model wife and that you were the victim of circumstances. V* ** * L. E.-My problem is my mo ther. She doesn’t visit me like mothers should. If she does hap pen by she is in a big hurry to leave, don’t ever have time to sit and talk. When I go to visit her, she is never at home. What is the matter? Ans: Your mamma feels that her duty to her family ended when the kids grew up and married. She al ways wanted to gad about and now she is making the most of the op portunity. Naturally she has her own select circle of friends whosa MIMk Mi n 42 ML Mi fei , J, t r companionship she enjoys.

Boys ju'st don’t seem to notice at all. Practically all my girl friends are getting married. Will the sun eve shine for me? Ans: The sun’s shining little gril but you can’t see the sun be cause you have blurred your vision with a clouyd outlook on life. ! Wipe your tears away, dry your eyes, put the biggest smile imag inable On your winsome face and beam it in the idrection of the boys in the service. And....DO THEY LIKE SMILES. Just you try a few and see. ***** R. L.—A boy has been passing my house for the past eight years. Recently he stopped and said he had been seeing me all these years and said he wanted to marry me. Now I wish to know if he loves me or not and is he going to stop any more? Ans: Your admirer has a rather j bad reputation with women. Let j this notoiety he has gained at the 1 expense of other women guide you in your decision to accept or re ject his attentions. Don’t let your name be linked with his until you know all about him.
