Advice to the Lovelorn
Love Comes Unbidden and, "To Love or Not We Are
No More Free Than the Ripple to Rise and
Leave the Sea."
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
A Girl's Opinion.
Dear M1m Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
After awaiting for the discussions
of "Innocent," I am going to write
my opinion. I may not agree with
some readers, but anyone who has
a little common sense will under
stand me.
The letter written by "Interested
Pals" does not give the girl justice.
, Maybe she is a good girl, we don't
know. Maybe she has tried to do
her level best to be good. Again
they say they feel sorry for him,
, for shame, a girl should run down
her own sex. (iod should curse
him eternally, and if he is guilty,
Ood will punish him.
Don't we all think we have good
characters? Don't wo think we
have a good reputation? Of
course we do.
It is true no man ever respects
or lovrs a wumun tie ia .-iiiii'riiru
to marry, but It Isn't because he is
compelled to marry her, it's because
he doesn't love or respect her be
fore this occurs. No man, no mat
ter who he is, will ever drag a girl
down if he really loves her.
Of course if a girl wishes to
throw her life away In that man
ner, why she la to blame, but how
r do you know she wishes that? In
the first place, "Pals, a respectable
hoy isn't going with' that sort of a
girl, well If he isn't respecta
ble, let him suffer.
I know this to be true, as I have
Been it tried by my dear girl
chum. She was a good girl and Is
yet. Her companion was most a
brother to her. Four years ho had
kept her steady company, and one
day she came to me and confided
in me. I felt sorry for her, but I
' could do nothing, 80 she pleaded to
him. He promised to save her from
the disgrace that was befalling her.
Marriage, he said, was beyond the
limit, because he was too young,
but he promised and she clung to
him, and he had her lifted from
the disgrace that was weaving itself
around her. But did he tell that
It was he who was guilty? Not
much! It was another fellow, you
see, some one else, who was as in
nocent as God, but he loved her, you
know, and made her believe he
vm going to marry her, but did not
want Khother man's child. He lied,
and if one can go that far and He,
one can lie at the beginning.
"A Woman" says all males are
not men. She sure knows what she
is talking about. Why don't men
help to uplift this world Instead of
dragging it down?
I am only a slip of a girl yet,
Just a girl of 17 summers, but try
to do my best and live a clean life
(or my mother's sake and no one
else.
Thanking you for any trouble I
have caused, I am, A GIRL.
A New Idea.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Being a man, I can understand a
man, but 1 cannot understand a
girl's plea that a man has wronged
her if she knows that they both
know It isn't true.
In the case of "Innocent" It seems
to me that the girl has every right
to believe that he could be the
father of the child, for how could
any girl expect to live and be happy
with a man that was "absolutely
csrtain" there could not possibly be
anything to her statement? With
all due respect to the girl, let me
say, though, that of course there
might possibly be a doubt as to his
being the actual father, etc., but,
believe me, there is no doubt in
my mind as to her having a reason
to believe he probably is, and,, be
ing a man, it Is my first duty to
respect a woman until it is thor
oughly proven beyond all possible
doubt that they are totally unwor
thy of respect
; - That being the case, I would sug
gest that all those who seem Inter
ested in this particular case donate
sufficient funds to provide an hon-
orab'-a and able lawyer 'to see that
i i . . 1 1 j i i
mm fill I gcia Diuaio ucat. in
any case the girl is to be pitied
rather than censured. She needs
friends and I for one never could
believe In this dainty kind of Chris
tianity that you've got to carry
around on a chip. We are here to
help each other, and because of the
fact that it is but human to err, we
should as far as could reasonably
be expected bear one another's bur
dens, lending assistance where it
seems the most needed. I'm not an
angel and I don't want to be for
a while, at least as long as I stay
down here. I'd sooner be a "man."
I lik that idea better. I'm not the
only one there's lots of them In
my boat and I'm sure we would all
like to see both "Innocent" and the
girl get a square shake-up in our
courts. I'll come in a bit on the
girl's side. How many of her sup
porters will throw in, provided she
will accept our offer; if not, well,
let's forget it (A married man in
a happy home.)

ruined. Remember how easy It
was to find yourself car riding with
out really intending to go. You are
a child and should be in school.
The authorities of Pllger, Neb.,
should take this man In hand.
Education a prize.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
am a constant reader of The Oma
ha Bee. The first thing I read is
"Advice for Lovelorn." I come to
to you for advice. I am a girl of
18 years old. My parents want me
to finish high school this year, but
an obstacle came in the way.
I met two gentlemen. One Is 19
and the other 32. The one that is
32 asked me to marry him next
spring. My parents object to
him because he Is so old. Do you
think age makes any difference?
They want me to go with the other,
but I don't love him. What shall I
do?
I am a very popular girl. I have
red hair and blue eyes. Hoping to
soe this letter In print, Yours cor
dially. BLUE EYES.
I am always in havor of higher
education and really think you are
making a mistake in not continuing
high school. As far as picking
your future husband I cannot help
you, that is a question you must
decide for yourself. You have come
to a turning point and you must
make the decision alone.
Hips Are With Us Again This Year
Nice Girls.
Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee:
''We are two girls, 18 and 20 years
of age, and have been living in
Omaha a short time and would like"
to Decome acquainted witn some
nice girls and boys.
Wa are good, respectable girls,
nd rvM rinn't para tn nhnm with
any boy who isn't decent. Are
there any social clubs where young
.people who are strangers can go
"and get acquainted?
win sena you our aaaress, ana
it any person wants to write to us
you can send them our address.
LONESOME GIRLS.
Your letter is straightforward and
I suggest that you call at the War
Camp Community. They conduct
several clubs for young people and
have clean, wholesome dances at
the Girls' Community House.
' ' A Little Girl at Pllger.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
am coming to you with great trou
ble. I am a girl jef 14, but I am
very large for my age. A very good
looking man came to town to work
in the bakery shop. I went by a
few times, he winked at me and
before I knew it I was out riding
with him. He asked roe to marry
hlrj. but I told him I would have
to consider it He is going on 40
and I am only 14. Do you think
I should marry him or not, or wait
till I km older? A. M. K.
You are a very foolish nttle girl
to go with that ban at all. The
chances are that he is married, and
you, before you realize it, your
.; reputation, even your life, may be
Wants to Grow Thin.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
am writing you not for advice for
"love," but for some advice on how
to reduce surplus flesh. Can you
give the address of some place
where I can secure anti-fat or some
place or treatment that I can take
to reduce my flesh?
FRANCES BROWNING.
Ask a fat man or woman to diet
and almost without exception they
will say: "Oh, I eat very, little."
But be a mouse in the corner and
you will find them eating candy,
starch and all sorts of fattening
foods. And they eat heartily of
them. If you really want to grow
thin it Is a simple matter. Take no
breakfast at all and drink four glass
fulls of hot water. For lunch take
a cup of hot tea and a lettuce sand
wich, or a tomato sandwich or any
filling of the non-fat variety one
remember, not four or five. This
sandwich should be made of bran
bread or toasted bread. For dinner
take very little and let that little
consist of vegetables without starch.
The first week will be a terrible or
deal, but as you eat less the size
of the stomach is reduced and soon
you will not care much about food.
Then, of course, it will be no hard
ship to diet.
You may be very fond of food,
but you will be so happy over the
result the price will be easy. Your
skin will he saggy for a very short
time, but it will right itself in a
month. Then it will be much clear
er and finer than before. The fattest
people grow thin without medicines.
There is a book called "Eat and
Grow Thin," for $1.25. Most book
stores carry it.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
read your advice every night and
think you are the right kind of a
woman to give it. I am a girl, 19
years of age, and have no steady
boy friend. I have lots of both boy
and girl friends and always have
a good time. My latest hour is 11
o'clock. Is that too late?
,,1'm in love with a boy, 21 years
oi age. i am nve ieei iau arm bo

of the time he takes me to places
and seems to like me. How can I
make sure he loves me? Hoping

At Sunset
By EVELYN WELLS
Singl your hair against his cheek
As his life is over thine;
Hair of amber charged with fire
Shading eyes that burn as wine.
Sing ye not of yesterday.
Tales of gods nor chivalry,
Only sing of things that lie
Sleeping in life yet to be.
When the birds at last forget
To return at summer's call,
When the sun is dark and cold,
And the dew forgets to fall;
When the stars are scattered far,
Still be singing, if you can;
Whisper, in the final night
Proudly, "I have loved a man!"

Dame Fashion Rides By
the Traffic Cop of
Common Sense.
T
PEGGY NATTINGER.
HE traffic cop of Common
Sense blows his whistle but
the devotees of style speed on
past him, for Dame Fashion has
"stepped on the gas," in the matter
of fall clothes. Our evening gowns
will be backless and well nigh front
less, with only a wisp of beaded
chiffon to keep us from utter de
struction. The hats are more rak
ish than any futurist's wildest dream
and the hour-glass figure is the only
thin
Hips are indeed with us again
Fat ladies please copy. If you have
none make them, even if a pillow or
two must be brought into action.
This drastic change in the up and
down silhoutte is quite the most
startling feature of the season. In
one smart black and white check
model suit widths of white satin are
inset between the box plaits of the
coat, to increase its circumference
about the waist. It will take yards
more cloth than you have even seen
in years to make your new suit.
As to the novelties, they are
weird in the extreme. The hand
painted sport coat, the short sleeved
kerami coat, feather trimming, the
Hawaiian skirt of jet fringe, the
London guards plume, the dinner
plate hat, the huge feather fan, the
wired collar.
The new coats are as inconsistent
as the winds of spring. They are
made with great fur collars, many
of them wired to stand tip around
one's head, but the sleeves are short.

What your friends, say to you
after you've bought a new:
"Good substantial car, but too
heavy in the body, don't you think?
Looks too much like a truck."
"Not a bad looker, but a trifle
light. Me, I like the heavy wagons;
no bouncing ta them."
"Pretty trim lines to her, but I've
a friend who had owned that same
kind of car and he said she didn't
stand up a-tall."
"That car will last you a lifetime,
but, my, she looks awkward. Has all
the easy grace of a turtle."
"Something comfy, eh? Too bad
she can't make speed."
"My cousin, Henry Smythe, had
that kind of car. He could tear 70-an-hour
out of it regularly, but it
sounded like a can full of rocks after
the first month."
"You'll find it no good at climb
ing, but the innards are all right and
strong. Never bothered by repair
bills."
After which you are about ready
to wish you'd bought a Hennery.
You'd at least have known what was
wrong with it. Kansas City Star.

muffs that come to the elbow? A
humble public would like to know.
Many of the coats blouse in at the
back accentuating their shapeless
ness. The new dance frocks are as de
leted as a war correspondent's cable
grams. Not only are they backless
but a feather fan is all that is al
lowable in the front. And when a
gown is onchored by a few silver
beads on one side and a minute
scrap of chiffon on the other, most
anything might happen 1
Purples, reds, yellows, they
scream at one another! The most
daring dinner gown is in royal pur
ole. backless of course, and with a
fish tail train. So closely does it
cling to the figure of the fair wearer
that the shoe horn must have been
emoloved to get her into it.
When you follow the hounds wear
a black and white suit with a turkey
red vest. Don't think of wearing
a negligee that isn't hand painted,
and do be sure to buy one ot the
small flat hats with a tuft of ostrich
feathers spilling out of the crown.
Not since the gloomy shape of
war cast its shadow over a tnvolous
world did the fickle goddess of

gorgeous and costly ways. As far
as she is concerned the peace

come into their own again.
Women Doctors to
v D i s c u s s Wo
men's Health
Health for the womanhood of the
world and a more defined position
for women on social conditions af
fecting their lives and the home will
be the keynote for study and dis
fecting their lives and the home will
gather in New York City the mid
dle of September, for an interna
tional conference.
The idea of this great get-together
of women physicians was
conceived by the Social Morality
Committee, War Work Council, of
the Young Women's Christian As
sociation, the personnel of which
is, Mrs. Robert E. Speer of Engle
wood, N. J., Mrs. John Meigs of
Pottstown, Pa., Mrs. Josephns Dan
iels of Washington, D. C, Mrs.
Robert Lovett of Washington, D.
C, Mrs. Edwin Grice of Philadel
phia, Mrs. Francis Hyde of Plain
field, N. J., Mrs. Harold Ickes of
Hubbard Woods, 111., Miss Mary
Woolley of South Hadley, Mass.,
M:ss Ann Wiggin of Nev York,
Mrs. Wallace Hamilton of New
York, Katharine Bement Davis, Ph.
D. , of New York, Miss Helen Davis
and Miss Mabel Cratty of New
York.
Through its social morality lec
ture work by women physicians for
women and girls of this country
prior to the war, during the period
of the war and since the signing of
the armistice, the Social Morality
committee came to realize the vital
need of an educational programme
more far-reaching in its scope.
How should this be accom
plished? First, the Social Morality
Committee believed that leading
women doctors of the world, who
are in the best position to know
the needs of women and girls as to
health, should meet for extensive
study, the interchange of ideas and
experiences, and the consideration
of methods for carrying on the
work.
Second, the committee realized
that in order to place its educa
tional work upon the broad basis
desired, the interest and co-operation
of prominent non-medical wo
men of the country should be en
listed. Therefore, a limited number of
physicians from several European
countries and China, India, Japan
and South America were invited to
the conference which will open in
New York City, September 15.
In order that the prominent non
medical women of the country
might meet with the physicians and
together discuss health and other
social problems concerning women
and girls, the Social Morality Com
mittee has invited many of the large
national organizations of women to
send two representatives each to a
convention, October 17-24.
The fact that 38 women phyisi
cians from foreign countries, many
leading women 'physicians from
America, and the most prominent
non-medical women of the United
States are coming together to Study
and discuss questions of health and
social morality is significant in the
history of women's work.
The Social Morality Committee
will be hostess for the foreign doc
tcrs and for the representatives
from national organizations.
Of the three oldest universities in
western Europe Salerno, Bologna,

first to women. Those were Saler
