And in the soft twilight of fMACAROIII 11 a summer evening, with a little jazz music and an officer or two or more, what could be more alluring?

French Motor Unit of New York City Club The problem of getting 7,500 gal lons of gasoline and 200 gallons of motor oil to France the amount necessary to operate eight trucks for six months-was successfuly solved by the motor unit of the New York Women's City club. "It had to be solved," said Mrs. Ernest Thompson Seton, chairman of the war service committee of the club, "for our trucks had to have the gasoline and France could not furnish it." The7 trucks for which these supplies were needed were the eight trucks sent to France by Le Bien-Etre du Blesse woman's motor unit of the New York Woman's City club. "These trucks are of the lorrie type," writes Mrs. Seton, "with canvas cover over the ribs, on a Tord chassis, extra heavy springs, extra equipment, paint ed Grench gray, as the unit has been accepted into the French army. Eight trucks have been shipped and 10 women chauffeurs qualified, represent ing an expenditure ion the basis of six months' maintenance of nearly $30, 000. Mrs. Cyrus W. Field has had charge of the motors and chauffeurs' tests; Mrs. Robert T. Morris has ex amined the chauffeurs for French. , "The first two trucks sent over are now operating" in Paris, carrying sup plies from the warehouse to the diet kitchens; and probably by now the next two trucks are carrying the hot food: from the diet kitchens to the first-ajd dressing stations on . the French front."

I am 17 year old and In love with a fine young mtfn 10 years my aenlor. Ha lovea me dearly, and I don't think there , la anything he wouldn't do tor me. Ha haa even gone ao far aa to give me a diamond ring. Now he la, I think, a little bit In clined to flirt -J have told him many tlmea I am very J&alous; and I think It I aver saw him flirting with my own eyea. I would hate him. He adnfita he .knows a few girls frfem his own town, but that la alL Now, Hiss Fairfax, please tell me. la my disposition wrong or what? 8. Are you engaged to thla young man, IS yeara your aenlor, from whom you have ac cepted a diamond ring? Or la It one of those ' vague affairs that glrla aometlmea drift ' Into, and then drift out of again. If yon are aotually engaged, with your parentaV consent, then he ought to be sufficiently',, loyal to you not to cauae you any anxiety by "flirting" with other girls. Ton aay you are very Jealous, and that If yon -caught him flirting you would "hate" him. Doesn't this prove to you, my dear girl, that you are rather young to accept tha responsibilities of marriage? If. you-are . genuinely engaged, with your parenta eon sent, I haven't a thing to say; but If It Is one of those Indeterminate arrangemenla, Nl really believe I'd put the whole .thing out of my head for a year or two. at least. Seventeen Is very young to make a life time decision. Just get a delightful book by Booth Tarkington called "Seventeen," and read It perhaps It will make yoa see things more clearly. , Many new restaurants and lunch rooms intended primarily for wom en patrons are being started in the larger cities as one of the results of the increased employment of women and girls in business. , - The number of traveling sales women in the United States is esti mated to have increased at least 35 per cent since the war began. Gardens in Right Line of Defense "Liberty Gardens" is a term which will be heard many times 'in the next few years throughout the land. The, Council of National Defense, the woman's committee, and the Depart ment of Agriculture have launched a plan for production which will not be hit or miss, helter-skelter and 'un thinking. They emphasize the tre mendous need for increased produc tion of vegetables and advise the na tion's gardeners at work in America this summer to be guided by one uniform plan and to work for one common end. The difference between the Liberty Garden and the old-fashioned gardens is that the Liberty gardener signs a pledge to plan, plant and care for his patch under the supervision of a com munity garden director. One of the interesting features of the plan is to secure through the councils the appointment of full time and, where necessary, salaried direc tors in every town of a population of more than 10,000. There will be several demonstration gardens pro vided in different parts of the munici pality where practical demonstrations of methods can be given. There will be a "Liberty" list of all local gardeners, who enroll to work under the plan approved by headquarters, with such modifications as local conditions make necessary. The overambitious garden is to be avoided. A sagacious system of well planned planting will result in more food for a given amount of work. The woman's committee has in charge several features of the scheme, the first being the pledge, which must be signed at the beginning of the sea son, by prospective gardeners. An other is a record card, on which every gardener is to make a report of his summer's progress. Through these records it will be possible to benefit from his summer's experience when making plans for 1919. The plan fits in with that of the Bureau of Education, indorsed by the president. School teachers may also be taught gardening "by these di rectors, so that those volunteering to teach home gardening to their school students will be better qualified. Wheatless Week to Be Observed. ' In grateful recognition of the ac tion of the government in permitting an extra amount of wheat flour to be used in the making of matzoth for the Passover holidays, the Fed eration of Jewish Woman's Organi zations, of Baltimore has decided to observe the week beginning May 19 as wheatless week.

Entertaining Young People Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I ant coming to you for advice. Ia It proper for a girl to dance"rlth her hat on T What could I do to .entertain young people, ai we have no music? How should a library scarf be used? Should the library table set In the middle of the house? I hope to see this In The Bee. Thanking you for ad vice, I remain Cedar Bluffs. B. H. One does not wear their hat as a ruls at a dance, but very often If the dance la an Informal one or at one of tha country cluba the girls do wear their hats. It Is a little hard to entertain young peo ple without music, but do you play cards T I think nearly everyone enjoya a good ead game. Aa the summer months come' and the evenings are long why not plan a moonlight picnic? Wenle roasts are al ways popular and corn roasts too, a little later In the season are a Jolly way to spend an evening out-of-doors. A library scarf should be used on ths library table which 1 usually placed In th. middle of the living room or at one side. Visiting a -Soldier. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I havw been a silent reader of your "advice to the lovelorn" for quite a while and now I WTite to you for advice. My lover, who is a sol dier boy, is In a training camp many miles from me. He is unable to get a furlough to come and see me. He expects to leave for 4 France soon and he wants me to come and visit him for a few days before he goes across. He says, he thinks it would be all right, but I don't know whether It Is the correct thing to do or not. I have no one to go with me. He Is a very nice young man and would not ask me to do anything that he thought was not right. I haven't seen him for over six months, but hs writes every , few days. We are engaged and he has asked me to marry him before hfl kops. We love each other dearly and t want to see him very much. Please advise me Miss Fairfax, as to what I should do. BROWN BYES. If there Is a hostess house near the camp where your fiance Is stationed, I should not hesitate to visit him. Hers you may stay and enjoy his company In pleasant sur roundings. You will find a motherly woman in charge of the hostess house who will be glad to help you In any way and she Will act as your chaperone during your stay. It was for this purpose that these hostess houses were built by the Young Women's Christian association that the mothers and friends of our soldiers could visit them at the cantonments. U Picture. Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I reaa your advice to the "Lovelorn" In The Oma ha Bee and I thought I would ask you fos advice. I received a letter from a young man who has to go to war. He Is In the. training camp now. In his first letter to me he sent Ills picture and he Is not bad looking. In his second letter he asked ma to send htm my picture and I have never seen him or heard from him before. But I have a cousin that knew him. They wers in the samo training camp together, but my cousin has gone to France now. The main question I wanted to ask you was about sending him my picture. Would you Bend It to him or not? When he sent me hi he said that he would send it Just to bs friendly, and he wants mine now. I do not know whether to send it to him, not knowing him, or not. Will you please writs me and let me know by return mall, be cause I want to know before he write, again. I wouldn't send this young soldier a pic- -ture. Write him a friendly letter or twe If you hlnk-lt will cheer him' a little. Perhaps after you know him better yoa can send some homemade" candy. Nothing pleases these homesick soldiers quite so much and as you cousin knew and liked him I think it Would be perfectly proper. Explain the Matter. v , Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee: I want your advice, as I don't feel like deciding this question that is confronting me, my self. I went with a youhg man a few time. and I gave him the Impression that I didn't like him. At least, I know hs took it that way. But I did. and he never called since the night I let him go home, making him think I was, cross at hire, and wasn't. And I want to know if It would be all right to write him a little brief note, tell ing him that I'd like to have him call .gain? PAULINE. p, s. And where could I find out wher. a certain young man Is that went In the draft fronv Fremont, but resided In Grand Island at what camp, I mean. If you fe'el that you are m tha wrong I would write the young man a friendly note explaining the affair and aaklng him to ealU Write to the exemption board authorities at Grand Island for Informa tion regarding your friend. In all prob ability he Is at Camp Funaton, Unrequited Love. Dear Mlsa Falrfa. I am hopelessly love with a handsome sailor boy. He hai recently gone away and haa not wrlttei to me. Also, he did not pay enough atten tlon to me when he was here. I paltf bin very much attention and he did not recipro cate, although he told my friends ho like me. Please tell me what to do.
