Dear Miss Fairfax: We are two
high school girls who have bean

think that your advice la excellent
and now we come to you for help.

but instead are very much Interest

we can out of high school. We go
with our boy friends frequently, but
never allow any privileges. One aft

out on a hike and met a car in

- One of these days I will write
a long letter on the subject of
rouge and powder and fallen
women which will bring my
readers nearer together that is,
their opinions. But in the mean
time I shall print their discus

opinion that moves the world in
this, or that, direction? Your

around her. Now, Miss Fairfax we
are sure she is not engaged to him
for she goes with a number of the
young men in this city. Is this
proper? We have always been
taught not to allow such actions as
this, but on the other hand we have
been told to follow the example of
our high school ' teachers. What
shall we do?
We have been reading the discus-
of the men would look at their own
habits, such as clgaret smoking,

we do not agree that girls should

Rover Speaks.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Kindly allow Everett True, the in
fant, an opportunity to speak of
rouge and paint I am a mechanic,
and strange to say one of the kind
which cannot be fooled with paint
or camouflage. Girls, who are you
trying to attract? wouldn't you
rather run after rabbit and be
natural and not catch it than to
rouge and paint and run after a
skunk and catch it? In other words
why don't you play the role of
frankness and purity and be your
own sweet selves? At best this
paint and rouge is temporary, .la
questionable and places many ' a
pure sweet girl in the class with the
automobile a "runabout". Get
away from deceit, girls, be yourself,
and let your Prince Charming win
you for yourself alone, then you win
have no deceptions to continue after
the winning's done. Of course no
reasonable person would object to
the use of powder or other sub
stance used upon a chapped or
otherwise unnaturally colored face,
but you had better leave nature
alone. Now to be honest. Including
the painted and rouged, the girl is
a better girl than the average man
is a man. ROVER.
Satisfied With Her Looks.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
also have a word to put in the dis
cussion. Have very thin, pale lips,
as one of your readers wrote. As
soon as I saw the paper and read
what she said about it, I decided I
would try her advice, so I borrowed
my sister's lip rouge and, having light
eyebrows, she also darkened them,
but when my boy friend called he
refused to go with me if I did it
again. Although I do not believe in
criticizing people, I do think that
girls should be satisfied with their
looks and not try to look better to
Who Can Tell How Long Love Will
Last Though it Consumes Entirely
. By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Sometimes I wonder if too much
hasn't been said about constancy.
.Constancy to the person one has
promised to marry, for instance, is
regarded not only as a virtue but
as really inseparable from decency
and honor. "Breach of promise
' suits" are seriously considered in
the courts and jilting is pointed to
as an abomination. f
, Changing , one's mind or one s
heart after one has promised to
marry and to love forever is held
to be simply one of the things that
can't be done.
This idea is so general, and so
many sharply vigilant eyes are con
stantly on the lookout for viola
tions of the good old rule of con
stancy, that I suspect a good many
tender - hearted, self - distrustful
young creatures are frightened into
marriages that if they felt perfectly
free they would unregretfully es
:ape from.
. My own belief is that constancy
as a virtue has had too much em
phasis. And I feel a most genuine
sympathy with the entirely frank
voung writer of such a letter on
this subject as recently came to me.
"I am 19," the letter reads, "and
am engaged to a man three years
i my senior. I have known him all
'my life and I think I really did. love
him at one time, but I know now
that I do not love htm. I have
never let him ,see this change, be
cause I have been afraid of breaking
his heart, as I'm sure he loves me
very much. I take no interest
whatever in his letters or anything
about him. I never even think of
Jiim when he is1 not with me.
1 "Now, Miss Fairfax, I think I
would be doing him a great wrong
were I to marry him with this feel
ing in my heart. Still I have not
the nerve to tell him. I would be
so grateful to you if you could ad
vise me what to do."
Now this is as far, doubtless, as
19 had the courage to go.
A False Position.
This young girl has the sincerity
and clear-sightedness to perceive
that she is in a false position. She
has the sense to know that she is
headed in a fatally wrong direction
wrong for herself and for her
lover. All she lacks is the "nerve,"
as she says, to act on her knowl
edge. It is quite easy, of course, to see
what she is afraid of. -She
is afraid of what people will
say. They will call her fickle or
cruel. And it will hurt. And being
only 19, she won't be entirely sure
that people aren't right.
And she is afraid of family pres
sure. Families are pretty formidable
things when they're all agreed upon
some one point that a single unruly
member dissents from. They have a
way of making it extremely un
pleasant for the unruly member.
And the publicity of a broken en
gagement, especially an engage
ment with a good, steady young
man who had been a lover since
childhood, is something, that most
families would be pretty certain to
oppose. i
And finally she is afraid, as she
says, of "breaking his heart."
Of course she is reluctant to
cause the pain that a complete rup
ture with her faithful sweetheart
is certain to bring him. It isn't
easy by any means to watch, an in
nocent person suffer and to know
one is solely responsible. This is
no doubt the hardest part of all.
. But while admitting the reality
of the difficulties that are in her
way, I want to encourage this
young girl in what is beyond any
doubt her duty to .herself and to
her sweetheart.
To marry a man who she not
only doesn't love but is wholly in-'
different to Would be, as she puts
it, a great wrong., Nothing justi-'
fies marriage but love; And this
does not sound like a case where
there is any chance of. a tardy love
developing.
So what is there for her to do but
be sincere and courageous and tell
her lover the truth?
Her family will readjust itself.
What friends and neighbors may
have to say is really beside the
point. And the lover himself, how
ever profoundly disappointed he
may be, won't die of a broken heart.
The hearts of normal, wholesome,
steady going young men aren't
nearly as brittle as that. Ultimate
recovery is pretty certain.
I wish that all lovers would
realize how simple the matter really
is. There's only one reason that
justifies two people in marying,
namely, that they love each other so
much that they cannot be happy

Little Sunday Nignt suppers.'
' One of the easiest and pleasantest
ways of entertaining a few friends
is at a Sunday night supper. It is
always cozy to gather around a
table, and Sunday is the day devoted
to leisure. In planning a little sup
per, it is well to remember that it
is apt to be successful if the hostess
does much of her preparation ahead
of time, leaving herself unflurried
and affable at the time of serving.
This statement is particularly true
of kitchenette cooking, for the
kitchenette lends iself best to
simple cooking, and only a few
dishes at a time.

love with you. Don't marry to be
accommodating. Marry because
you've learned what love is and be
cause you have substantial reason
for believing that the man you're in
love with is worthy of1 love.
It's the matter of all others that
your own heart and your own con
science must decide. But because
you must decide it alone, you must
on that account be all the more
careful not to decide it hastily. If
you mustn't marry just to be polite
or obedient, you must also certainly
not marry from wilfulness or per
versity. Don't elope at 17 with the youth
who made love to you so charm
ingly last week, even though he
seems to you at present the divinest
creature on earth. Wait and con
sider. Be very careful not only that
you love, but that you love wisely.
And under those conditions I
think constancy will take care of
itself. '
If you make up your mind not to
become engaged to a man because
he wants you to do so much, or be
cause other people want you to,
you are not likely to find yourself
in that condition of agonized un
certainty where anxious onlookers
will threaten jyou with the club of
constancy.
But if you have made the mis
take which' so many women make
of drifting into a listless compact
of love with a man they are half in
different to, merely because at -the
moment there's no other man in
sight have the courage to repair
your mistake before it is too late.
-Constancy to a man you don't
love is a meaningless virtue.
Acknowledge '.your mistake, ac
cept all -the -blame for it and re
serve the treasure of your heart for
the man whom, you will some day
really love.

Emerson, la. Dear Miss Fairfax,
Omaha Bee: On this subject of
painted dolls, I, myself, have a bru
nette's hair and eyes and ft blonde's
complexion, and am considered very
pretty, but this is not the subject
Men do not like the rouge dolls,
as I know from experience. My
chum paints constantly and she does
not take with the men as I do. A
little loose powder is all that is
needed just to take the shine off
the face.
But girls that want to be popular
always must not be- a rouge doll,
but must be natural. A I have
been in company .for about two
years I know what kind of girl goes
in the eyes of men.

If you use rouge' and powder so
freely, because they won't stay long.

Dear Miss Fairfax! I am an In
terested reader of your "Advice to
Lovelorn," and would like to say Just
a few things about "Should women
use rouge or powder?" Haa anybody
stopped to think much on the sub
ject? I am 22 years old and have
been married nearly three years. I
should think if women were to have
red lips and cheeks nature would
furnish them. I myself would rath
er have a girl who does not use it
Thank goodness I got one. I also
have a brother who feels the same
as I do. His name is Robert Rouge,
to me, looks like a kind of a daring
way to make men take more of a
fancy to the user. I also- think it is
about 60-50 on the men and women
criticizing each other. La A. M.
Another Side Presented.
Miss Fairfax: May I write a few
words in regard to Tony's protest.
I did not read C. O. A.'s remarks. His
remarks were meant for all girls
who paint but surely Tony's protest
wag in behalf of the girls of the un
derworld. And my remarks are
meant for them. First, what is the
toll in human life taken yearly
by these girls. Second, how many
homes are wrecked yearly by these

girls T Here is the story, a beautiful
home and church weddings, a happy
honeymoon. A few years later, what
do we seer Our Hearts are nuea
with pity. Up on the knob of the
door bangs a bunch or crepe, what
de we see inside 7 Blinds drawn, and
in a farther room a casket. What
do we hear, hushed footsteps, whis
pers, and in another part of the
house a baby cryina; for the mother
who never again will clasp her darl
ing to her heart. And where is the
father? The weakling who so soon
grew tired of the lovely girl he led
to the altar, where nightly he may be
seen with the girls with the reddest
of hearts. The long night through
spent in the wildest of orgies. Yes,
indeed, the reddest of hearts dripping
with the blood of the innocents. At
tentive wives, appreciative mothers.
Stop, look, listen! A fallen girl for
a mother, a moral weakling tot a
father, what would the child of such
a union be? I am endeavoring to
point out to these girls some of the
terrible things they are directly re
sponsible for. I do not suppose these
girls care or know where all the mer
they see nightly go or come from.
One thing more girls, remember.
Some day you and I shall meet
Elm face to face. MRS. V. E.
One for Clean Faces.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I am Just a, boy of 18. The topic
"Should Girls Paint" has caught my
eye several times.
I don't see why ft girl must paint.
Clean thoughts and i clean mind is
all she needs to attract ft good boy.
Give me the plain girl every time.
But if C. O. A. has been out with
girls that paint he ehould keep it
to himself. It is hard enough for
girls as ft whole ' to keep ft good
name in this world.
If I were a girl I'd like to write
C. O. A. ft personal letter. I think
he would change his ideas of good
and bad girls. I don't think C. O.
A. had any grounds to start this ar
gument Let the girls do as they
please about painting or powdering
that is none of the men's business.
Let's ask the girls what they think
of a boy that gambles. It is just
as bad either way. Theyihave JuBt as
much right to paint as we have to
gamble. EIGHTEEN.
Painted Bolls.
My Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha
Bee: Just ft few words on "Painted
Dolls." I think Mr. C. O. A. looks
on the wrong side of this matter en
tirely. Of course, I agree that many,
tnany women and girls go to ex
tremes. But how much a little pow
der and paint adds to one's looks
at times. Show me the man that
likes to go about with a young lady
who is always pale and her face is
always shiny, etc. That's about what
they'd all look like if it wasn't for
the paints and rouge. There is ab
solutely no excuse for carrying it
too far.
And then why do people persist
in kicking ft woman when . she's
down, instead of giving her ft help
ing hand? There would be much
less evil in the world if everyone at
tended to his own business.
The Bible says, "Go ye, and sin
no more," It seems that if a woman
or girl does try to do better, some
one is continually reminding her of
her downfall. If she really wants
to do better, help her, and try to
make her feel as if she were your
equal. (And in ft good many cases
sho is)
I could talk and talk on this sub
ject but as space is limited I will
quit. Please do not print address or
name. (SHORTY.)

fuel or think are below us in social
or moral life is not only not Chris
tian it Is unpatriotic. For scorn Is
promotion of class and race hatred.
It breeds social and industrial un
rest and strife. The fact that these
painted girls are hard to reach and
that comparatively few are re
deemed to a virtuous life is not a
reason for neglecting to do what
we may to befriend and help all we
can to save some to ft life of virtue
and honor. I think generally women
are more uncharitable and unwill
ing to help the fallen girl than men.
And if good women and girls would
turn as cold ft shoulder to the un
virtuous man as to the unvlrtuous
girl they would help ft lot in solv

would ruuteh the man who betrays

would heir a lot, too. W. V. H.
