9 Society COMBINING utility nd novelty is a difficult task, we all agree. But some there are who see possibilities for unusual effects in the most commonplace circumstances. Saturday evening Happy Hollow club opened for the summer season in spite of the fact that the weather closely resembled winter with its chilling breezes. . The number, of diners was very large, thus making it necessary to place tables on the dance floor which ,is not enclosed. This prospect, lowever, did not daunt those in charge. The openings were closed with leavy canvas curtains, and on each table was placed a smalj glowing object, a tiny electric heater, whose warm rays quickly dispelled the gloom and chill. The heaters were most effective in their usefulness and made unique decoratitons. In the main dining room logs were heaped in the fireplace and the crackling flames lent a cheery atmosphere to the occasion. r . 1 : ; Engagement Announced.

Bear Miss Fairfax: Although this is the first time I have written to you for advice, I think that you will be able to help me with trou bles which cause me to worry sometimes. r. - ( am only 16 and am a senior in high school, and like most other girls am Quite friendly with everyone and, seems to me, 'mostly with -boys. But my trouble is this, not long aso I kept company with a boy and went with him for a short time. When I was away from him I liked him but when with him,! was In misery. ,. . So, of course, we didn't go to gether very much longer. . Then he started going with another gtrl who happened to be my chum. And af ter not going with him for a while, I began to like him again. So he went with me and then with her. His steady girl did not like this so she stopped going with him. Now, I am in a puzzle, for my sisters and brothers do not want me to keep company with him. I like him real well but don't know of a reason to tell him why I can't go With him. Now, Miss Fairfax, I wish you would please advise me what to tell him and also whrft to do. MART-MARGARET T. Apparently you don't want this young man but you don't want any one else to have him. That Indi cates selfishness and Jealousy, two rather bad things. Also I discover from your letter that you don't know your own mind. Tou deserve to lose the friendship of this young man for your lack of. consideration for his feelings. My advice to you is that you give up any thought of him until you know your own mind, or at least until you can give him a sincere friendship. This idea of liking a boy when away from him and being in misery when with him is nothing more than a bad mental state. Start in now to control your thinking and your conduct and you may be in time to save yourself and others much unpleasantness and unhappi ness in life. If you do not care to go with this young man, tell him so politely and honestly. . ; Florence: Tou could do one of two things: Either get a sympa thetic tutor who could teach you the . thlncs you need . -to know about reading, mathematics, penmanship.' omitting the things you hnvtOearned throoitli experience, or .: " i could enroll In a business folKg.'. where Sou can get instruction iu iho sub jects you mention. Tour letter proves that you have learned considerable without going to, school, and I be lieve you would be equal to a straight business course. . I would be glad to talk to you personally if you will call, or I am sure any person connected with a business college will be glad to take pains with one whose aims ari as commendable as yours seem, to be. A Curious Threat, i Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a man of 28 and have been keeping com pany with a girl of 25 for some time. I love her and she loves me, but my parents don't like her, and if I mar ry her they threaten to disown me. Do you think this is right? She is a respectable girl. Do you think that a girl should be- Judged by her par ents and Other relatives? This hap pens to be their reason for -disliking her. . Kindly answer soon, Miss Fair fax, as I am anxious. K. F. B. Kdncy. a man of 28 afraid of being disowned! Aren't you making enough to support the girl without depend ing upon your parents? Tou ought to be! As for shirting the parents' sins onto the daughter, how about reversing the case and putting your self on trial for what your parents might have been. I don't think the girl will be getting any prze pack age if that's the kind of young man you are! , T Skih trouble needs imme diate attention. Buy a jar of Resinol Ointment to day and use it regularly. . A few days of such persijt ent treatment usually , , tops the iteming, clears " away the inflammation and soreness, and helps the skin resume its natural healthy condition. At all draniats.
