What Is Pro dcc?
Dear Mlsa Fairfax, Omaha Baa: I
am 9 dally reader of your column
and think that you 9X9 a wonderful
woman to be able to answer some
of tho questions put to you. I wish
you would pleas tell me th proper
way to introduce a young" man to
a young man, a young - man to a
young; lady, and a young man to
your mother.
Her Is a question I want you to
answer frankly: Do you think It is
right that a crowd of high school
boys and girls should play kissing
games at a party 7 To tell th truth
I just can't stand them, but it seems
Ilk at every party, no matter how
many nice games on has planned,
they always want to play kissing
games. Would it be all right for a
girl, 1 years old, to go to a party
with a boy friend, although she had
never been- out befor with a boy
except from a party t
Also, Misa Fairfax, Is It proper to
speak to any on In your church, al
though you nave never been lntro
duced? I hope you will print my
letter as soon as possioie. m. m.
Present th young man to the
young man, of course th young
man to th young woman, and th
young man to your mothar. This Is
assuming that you wish th young
man to meet your mother. Kissing
games are positively silly and de
cidedly common. Take notic of
who starts these games not the
cultured ones, but the shoddy lot.
ir your parents Know the young
man, and approve of him then I see
no reason why you should not per
mit mm to accompany you to a
show. Sometimes church people be
come so well acquainted without an
Introduction that it Is all right to
speak, but these occasions arthe
exceptions and not the rules.
Does She Love Him?
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
am a young man of 24 years; am in
a good business and am pretty well
thought of; am good looking and
fascinating to most women; I have
been engaged to a girl of 19 for one
ana one-hair years. She is very good
looking and loved by all who know
her. I love her very dearly and
she only. We have had the day set
several times, but she never Is ready
to go. I am very jealous of her and
we quarrel frequently over that
What would you advise me to do? I
don't want to keep along with her
and then get fooled.
Hoping for advice through The
Bee. A FRIEND UP A TREE.
I cannot answer your question,
since I do not know her reasons for
postponing the marriage.
Elizabeth I think a young man
who has lost his wife by death can
love another. If he is upright and
sensible and there is nothing worse
against him than merely that his
wife died, I think you could safely
believe -him. The second marriages
you refer to might apply more truly
to people who marry a second time
in middle life or old age.

Your Family Physician Has " Told You:
"Be sure that your milk and cream are Certified, Certified
means Pasteurized. Every thoughtful woman now insists upon
CertWed-PASTEURIZED-milk for the kiddies."
'.Well, if you insist upon
Certified milk, why not be sure
that your butter, or whatever
'spread you use for bread, is
also Certified or Pasteurized.
There is one spread for bread
that is completly pasteurized
and that is DIXIE MARGAR
INE. Every gallon of milk and
cream that goes into DIXIE,
and we use thousands of gallons
daily, is re-clarified and re-pas
teurized by us before it ever
goes to our churns. And we do
the same with every ingredient
So that DIXIE is absolutely
pure and absolutely wholesome,
because it is absolutely pas
teurized. '
DIXIE is equal to butter in
flavor, surer than butter in
Pasteurization and higher than
butter in food value.f

of DIXIE Margarine are placed preparatory to being wrapped in vegetable parch
