LETTER FROM JOHN AUDEN PRESCOTT, FIANCE OF ITISLIE HAMILTON, TO SYDNEY CARTON, HIS BACHELOR FRIEND DEAR SYD; Although I did not get those and letters I am very glad I came over and had this little talk with Paula. I have a very different feeling about her* n6w than I did after getting her letter the other day. You see, I jumped to the conclusion that she had It in for me. I know now that you are right. She is a pretty decent girl after all. Os course she let me understand that she cared for me and would always care, but she did It very delicately and, to tell you the truth Syd, I felt rather like the cad you intimated I was in your letter. The moment I arrived, I called up Paula. She recognized my voice at once and she gave a little exclamation of delight. "Oh, it is mon cher Jacques. That you were basking in the caresses of your sweetheart I have been thinking, and a queer little sinking feeling it gave me. "Why are you here? Is your wonderful love 'dream over?” “No, Palma,” I answered, "but when Syd wrote me of dining and motoring with you, the sudden impulse came over me of seeing you just once more. I guess I became a bit homesick for the sight of you.” Came to See Her "Jacques,” she spoke most solemnly, "do you really mean to tell me that you came back purposely to see me?” "That is exactly what I did,” I confessed. "You, dear!” "Well, will you dine with n\e this evening? I can only stay twenty-four hours, you know." “Happier than I ever conceived I could be again will I be to sit opposite you at a softly light table,” she answered in that queer little French idiom that she grafts on her English words. To pass the time I took the roadster and started out for a long ride. Strange, isn't it, Syd, the perversity of the mind of man. When I got into that roadster my thoughts were all of Paula, but 1 had hardly thrown the engine In gear when Leslie took possession of my brain—she always has possession of my heart
Breaking Into Movies Is Series cf Bumps and Thumps, as Camel Ride Proves.
By VIRGINIA BRADFORD OLI.VW OO D, March 31 —I Breakirg Into tlie movies Isn't - done with one resounding smash. It's a succession of humps and thumps. My budding “career,” consisting now of comedy “background” and a Spanish dance, rose after another interval to the wobbly heights of a camel's back in a iilm circus put on by the Jackie Coogan Company for “Toby Tyler.” Now one of my pet aversions was camels. But no ambitious girl Is going to lt such a critter get her goat on the trek tuyf.tme. In a lot adjoining the studio home of the Coogan company a big tent had been erected. To get a crowd for the circus scene, a crowd of free extras, the public, had been invited. They had come by hundreds to got a glimpse of the famous "kid,” To sustain their interest while Jackie wasn't acting professional clowns and gag men had been engaged. His “Hunipship” Protests I had been assigned to ride the elephant. But when the girl who had essayed the camel had been bucked through several rehearsals into a state of prostration, I got a transfer. His humpship tried the same tactics with me. But when he found his efforts to dislodge me were merely providing a. new extra with thrills lie settled sullenly to work. I was dressed In diaphanous raiment; a few veils, no stockings, bedroom slippers and a spangle or two for good measure. My feet shrank HE SETTLED SULLENLY TO WORK. from the cold, and if the camel’s knees were as goose-fleshy as mine I didn’t blame him for being ugly. Jackie Coogan was a ragged boy, a runaway, selling Ice cream cones to the circus crowd, his cap cocked jauntily Jnd ills eyes big with pathetic appeal. Camel Earns More “My” part of the picture was finished just as I was beginning to feel at home on a hump, and reluctantly I changed from the gauds of a desert princess to the prosaio sweater and
—I was not conscious of any one in all the world but my own sweetheart. You have seen her, Syd. Do you blame me? I certainly do not blame you or any other man for thinking that a wonderful girl like Leslie has brought her wares to a poor market, when she brought her love to me. I could rave over Leslie for pages, but I must tell you about my dinner with Paula. Do Not Understand Poor little girl! 1 do not think, Syd, that we men really understand just what we do When we go a long time with a girl—give her a lot of attention simply because we are enjoying her company—then, finding another girl that fascinates us for the moment, wo simply hie ourselves to pastures new. Paula told me that when I first stopped going to see her she almost went mad with loneliness. She said, “do you not know, moncher, that a girl cannot so quickly her heart adjust?” Then In a voice that was full of suppressed tears she continued; "Jacques, to be happy I want you. Alore than all the world else I want you to be happy and If after you are married you find out that you have made a mistake, desolate will be your Paula.” After that I could not say to her I did not trust her, could I? Especially after she said, "When my heart Is so lonely that I think It will break I shall take out your letters and read them over and over. They are of course sorrow's crown of sorrows in that they make me remember happier things, but nevertheless I get a kind of sad pleasure out of it.” That settled the letters business. After this most of our conversation began, "Do you remember—?” Syd, I did have some great times with that girl. I liked her a lot. She is very different from Leslie. You cannot compare the two girls, but I have been a very lucky man to have had two women like Leslie and Paula love me. JACK. WIRE FROM SYDNEY CYRTON TO JOHN PRESCOTT.

skirt of plain Virginia Bradford. But they were warm at least. Amendment of the picture, 1 am Informed, may necessitate retaking several of the circus scenes. So I may have to don spangles once more and ride that brute again. If so. I shall take no nonsense from him. even If he Is making $54 per day In the films While I earn only $7.50!

Martha Lee*s Advice Competition in Love Is as Keen as in Business
THIS is an age of competition, in love, as well as in business. But, after all, every age is an age of competition in love. The fight is just a bit more noticeable now. The girl who sits back and waits for the right man to come along often sits and waits all her life. Someone else, more alert, grabs him off first. A girl may be an “old-fashioned,” home-loving girl —the sort men really do like if they are not “pepless”—but if she just sits and waits the men may pass her by without even seeing her. She must advertise her charms, In such a way that the charms are played up and the advertising down. Not a Doll Dear Miss Lee: I am 18 and my friends aii say I am good looking. I never use cosnotice —only powder. I have lots of friends, both boys and girls, but it seems as though the fellows never want to have a date with me unless we go out some place. I rather enjoy staying at home mute a bit. as I woik all day. But some of the fellows call me an “old maid,” Just because T don't paint like a china doll and run around. What shall I do? Will some nice gentleman that feels as though wanted to be more settled come to my aid? PEGGY O’NEIL. Don’t take a back seat and submit to being called an "old maid.” Show these boys that just because you do rot like rouge and do not like to run around a great deal, you are not necessarily a “prude,” but that you ere as much fun as any one. You really should force yourself to get out some times, even when you do not feel like it, or you will not get to meet new people. The kind of man for whom you are looking probably will come along some

day—there are many like him —but he wdll not "come to your aid.” When you spot him in the offing, go a courting, but* be sure he does not know It. Too Young to Marry JAKE: I do not advise you to marry this girl at present, if ever. You are right in feeling that you should help a girl who has made a mistake and has “come back,” instead of kicking her when she is down. But you really are too young to marry. And you do not earn enough to support three people. The difference in your ages might not affect your lives, but it probably wculd. Be this girl’s friend, for she needs friends. But don’t rush into a marriage with her. Father Is Strict Dear Martha Lee: lam a girl of 14. Mr father is very strict. Ho doesn’t want me to go to the store after 6 o'clock, unless he wants tobacco. If I go any place, I have to hurry home from school and ask mothei. Please tell me what to do. LEE. Your father is just trying to take care of you. When you are older you will be glad he was strict. Wait Awhile Dear Martha Lee: I am a boy of lf>. Last fall my leg was broken and I was taken to the hospital. A nurse and I fell in love with each other. She is 18. Would you advise us to get married? ROBERT R. Not for a few years. D. F.: Chief Rikhoff has assigned certain policewomen to watch conditions in motion picture theaters, so you need not be afraid to let your daughter go to them in the afternoons. However. Just to be sure, it would be best to let her go only to the firstclass theaters, where the possibility of being annoyed would be reduced to the minimum.
Childish Quarrel Dear Martha Lee: I am 16 and in lore with a boy of 18 with whom I used to eo. But he Is sore at me without any rason. Wo work at the same factory and I see him two or three times a day. He tells my girl chum I am mad at him. This is not so. What can I do to win back his love? BABE. Don’t worry about his love, Babe, for several years. If you want his friendship, give him a friendly smile when you meet. Apparently there is just some misunderstanding. Difference in Age Dear Miss Lee: I have been corresponding' with a girl for about six months. I have not heard from her for more than six weeks. She is nice, but a little young to go with me. She is 17 and I am 28. I told her not to give up her hoy friends for me, but she insisted she cared for none but me. What do you think can be the matter? If she turns me down, I shall not have much conference in any girls any more, for a good girl is hard to find. TRUSTING ONE. I might retort that a good man Is, too—but not as hard as you seem to think. Write to the girl again; your letter might not have reached her. It i3 possible that she saw how much you cared for her, realized she did not really love you, and chose this way to let you know It. As you are so much older than the girl, you should not encourage her. Time Tests Love Dear Miss Lee: I am almost 18 and go with only one fellow. He is with me only two nights a week. • I care to go with no ona else. He goes with no other girls. If we feel that way about it. and our arpents think the-same, do you see why we should quit it? X am bothered by young men asking ire for "dates.” How can I make them understand I don't care for their company, without being insulting? I have told several. already, but they don’t seem to think I mean it. Please advise me. Am 1 too young to understand the real meaning of love? SWEETHEART. A girl of your ag© should not confine herself to one man. My advice is to accept engagements with those of the other boys whose company you enjoy most. If there are some with whom you do not care to go, you can let them realize this by having "another engagement" every time they call. Most girls of your age do not fully realize the significance of love. You may be the exception that proves the rule, but you probably are not. That does not mean that you will not love this same boy as well when you are 23 as you do now. It means that you should let time test your love, before marrying.
