HOLDING A HUSBAND
N Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations of a Wife
The Aid and Cormfort Mother Gra

"Mother 1 Come here quick 1"
Dicky's excited voice rose from
the sleeping porch which we shared
and from which I had just removed
by belongings preparatory for the
trip north I meant to make against-
Dicky's un .reasonable objection.
From behind the locked door of my
father's room, in which I had hidden
myself and my things, I put my car
close to the crack and listened ap
prehensively for my mother-in-law's
reply. What would be her attitude
in this dispute between Dicky and
me? On the answer to that hinged,
perhaps, the chances of my carrying
out my plan of departing from some
other station than Cedar Crest with
out Dicky's knowledge.
"What's the matter now?"
Mother Graham's irritated voice
sounded from the living room door.
Then she began to walk swiftly to
ward our room, and Iguefsed that
Dicky was making frantic gestures
for her to hurry.
- "Why, everything of Madge's is
gone, her hat, her coat, bag and suit
case! Did you hear her go out? I
didn't, but I suppose she's streaked
Problems That Perplex
Answered by
BEATRICE FAIRFAX
A Polite Young Man.
Dear Miss Fairfax: Am very In
terested in your answers to young
people, which I think are of great
help to a person when In company
with other friends. This is the first
time I am twriting to1 you for ad
vice. I have decided to ask you one
or two questions which seem to trou
ble me. These questions probably
haVe been answered, but as I am a
new subschiber of Tne Omaha Bee,
I haven't come across them yet.
I am a girl of 20, have two sisters
and two brothers, mother and father.
I am at present going with a young
man one year my senior, with whom
I started to chum stveral months
ago. He Is rather good looking and
ranks about in my sociality. He
has great respect for me and treats
me very kindly. This young man is
very fond of amusements and always
lets me decide to what sort of amuse
ment we should go. Is it my duty
to do this? Is it proper or right
for me to ask him to come and spend
evenings and Sundays with me, or
how else could I show my kindness
to him? Otherwise I haven't any
thing against him and love him
dearly. Please answer. 1 1
BLUE EYES.
Otherwise you haven't anything
against the young man? Do you
mean that you dislike choosing what
the evening's entertainment shall
be? I think it very considerate of
the young man to consult you. Tou,
also, should consider what his pref
erences might be. When you have
once invited the young man to your
home, it is his privilege to ask' to
come again. If you feel sure that
he would like to come, a special In
vitation is perfectly proper, but a
man generally prefers to express his
own desire to call.
, Marie: "What you are asking me
to do is to choose for you between
these two young men. That is some
thing no one can decide for you, I
could not even venture an opinion
without knowing something about
the character of the men. It is well
to secure advice on some subjects,
but there are problems in life which
no one but yourself has any right to
solve. . '
F. Jj. P.: It is" quite all right for
to try to go with a girl you like, but
if she will have nothing to do with
you, better make the best of it and
conceal your Jealousy tts you suggest.
it down to that station to get that
reservation again."
"She's probably taken it over to
Betty Kane's, or some place like
that, to wait until it's time for the
train to go," my mother-in-law sug
gested with an equable, matter-of-fact
manner that hurprised me.
"She probably figures out you'll kick
t up some sort of row when you find
out she's going north, anyway."
"Do you think that's what she's
up to?" Dicky spoke dubiously, but
there was a rough note in his voice
that told me of the rage which was
consuming him.
"Why, of course, it is," his mother
return incisively. "And 1 glory
in her spunk. "You know very well
what you've got on hand in moving
and finding a place. If you had the
backbone of a amouse, you'd go
with her instead of acting like a
frightened baby."
Dicky Decides.
I executed two or three silent
dance steps behind my father's
locked door at this unexpected back
ing. I knew, of course, that to
Mother Graham the thought of
her personal possessions being left
uncared for in v Marvin was well
nigh ' insupportable, but I' ihad
been afraid that Dicky would
be able to wheedle her over td his
way of thinking as hV had done so
many times before. ' k-
There was a minute's strained, si
lence. Then I heard Dicky expldde
into heart-felt ejaculation. In
stantly his mother's shocked and
angrv voice commanded his silence.
"Oh, of course, I beg pardon, and
all that, mother?" he said, sullenly,
after a minute. ."But if you or
Maidge think she's going to get away
with anything like that you're very
much mistaken. I'm going to sit
down at that ticket office the rest
of the day, and, believe me, if she
does come in and try to get that
reservation after I've cancelled it,
she'll get an earful. She's so afraid
of a scene. I'll stage her a mighty
nifty third-act finale."
"I have no doubt you will," his
mother replied icily. "It will only
be on a par with the other asinine
exhibitions.you have been giving me
this morning. But please spare me
the details, and go along about your
business if you have any. I am real
ly too upset to listen to anything
more."
A Grim Smile.
"Oh, I'll get out pronto!" Dicky
rejoined huffily. "But if Madge
comes back here before she goes to
the ticket office as, of course, she
will you'll be only doing hef a good
turn if yoU put a flea in her ear as
to, what I mean to do."
1 Will you please permit me to plan
my own conduct? his mother re
plied, a most artistic note of infinite
weariness in her voice.
With a muttered exclamation,
which I was sure would pass no cen
sor of .proper speech, her son once
more departed, this time with a clos
ing of the door that was unmistak
ably and most-emphatically a slam.
' I heard my mother-in-law's foot
steps lightly and rapidly going back
to the living room and I wondered
if she shared Dicky's ridiculous and
far-fetched notion that I had left
the house. For the space of five
minutes I heard nothing more and
I was wondering how.soon I would
dare leave my hiding place and find
her when I heard her coming back
down the hall, and the next instant
her low knock sounded on my door.
"Margaret," she said tensely, but
softly. "Let me in."
I hastily unlocked the door, and
when she stepped inside I locked it
again after her. When I turned and
looked at her I was surprised to see
her thin lips twisted into an approv
ing if grim smile. I was so relieved
that I laughed outright and pulled
her down to the bed on which I was
sitting.
"He has really gone," she said
first, practically. "I watched him un
til I was sure. And now what is
your plan? Of course, you can't go
to Cedar Crest."
"I never intended to" I said smil
ing. '"But there are other stations,
easily reached by taxi."
"Good!" she commented. meant
to suggest that if you hadn't thought
of it. But youll have to make
tracks, for he may come back at any
minute. Now you get ready for the
journey and 1 11 go over to Mrs. L,u
kens and telephone for a taxi to come
there how soon?
"Twenty minutes," I replied la
conically.
"Fine!" she responded approving
ly. "As soon as I get back I'll help
you carry the things over there, then
if Richard. does come back before
you go I'll be able to switch him off
the track."

The Nation's Spirit
HE spirit born in the days of Bethlehem the Spirit
) of Christmas springs high in the human heart.
It is the spirit of good-will, of good cheer, of unselfish
giving. It calms the strife and turmoil of daily life, and
brings promise of a common brotherhood. ,
Year by year the world moves nearer this ideal; more-and
more do nations see that universal good transcends indi
vidual gain.' The great war pressed this lesson home.
r. 1 ;'
With good-will abiding in our hearts, what a wonderful
world would be ours!
Let us strive to bring the Spirit of Christmas into our
daily lives. Let us make Good-Will our, motto and
Brotherhood our goal. 7 t
