Martha Lee Says # ' - Land of Missing Girls Full of Bitterness
If the myriads of girls who have gone to the Land of the Missing could come back and tell their stories, many others might be saved from following in their footsteps. They would tell of leaving home because their parents put restrictions on them; of being lured away by dreams of luxury or of love—dreams that never materialized; of starting out too early to win success, because they were too impatient to wait until they had a firm foundation of home training and home ideals.
Then they would tejl of the disappointments—of the downgrade that leads to despair. Their tale would strike deep in the hearts of the girls who tire of home. And the girls would turn back, thankful for the families who love them and want them. In the Theater - Dear Miss Lee: 1. Is it proper when you are in a show with a fellow, that he leads the way hut, or the girl? 2. When you are in the show with a fellow, what do you talk about? 3. Is it right for a girl to kiss and hug a fellow at the show at the age of 14? BROWN EYES. 1. The girl goes first. 2. If you are considerate of others in the* show, you don't talk at all, except between acts. Then, comments on the show usually start the conversation, which may run into various topics. i 3. Not for a girl of 14 or of any other age. Can You Hqlp? Dear Miss Lee: I am married and.do not get along with my husband. He will not get me a home and wants to board. He will not support me. I work all the time. I have a daughter 6 years old. by my first marriage. Do you think I could get a homo as a housekeeper for someone who could take my little girl? If so, could you help us to find one? I am very unhappy. AN UNHAPPY MARRIAGE Please send me your name and address. If any of my readers knows of a position for this woman I should be glad to hear of it. Jealous at 14 Dear Miss Lee: I am a girl of 14 and I love a boy very, very much The girls tell them they have dates with him and I don't want anyone else to have him. He tells me not to believe them, for they do not tell the truth. Please tell me how to get over this jealousy. Please don't say I am too young. HEARTBROKEN E. F. Now, E. F„ surely your common sense shows you how ridiculous it is for a girl of 14 to be jealous because she cannot have one boy all to herself. This boy should be just a friend, for years to come. Keep him that, ajid you will be much happier than if you let imagined love and jealousy intervene. Foolish Flirtation Dear Martha: We are three girls 13 years old. We are In school, but find jour studies monotonous Last night we went riding with three fellows we met in a show. It was love at first sight. They want us to be their "steadies.” Do you think we are too young? What time should they leave? Should we inform our mothers of this affair? We are very pretty: In fact, all of us have won beauty prizes. Do you thnlk this Is the reason for our popularity? % These fellows are 25. Are they too old for ue? They are wealthy, and we are sure they would make ideal husbands. THE THRILLING THREE. You are too young for “steadies,” but old enough to know better than to go riding with ( three strange men. Tell your mothers, yes. Then follow their wishes. Why worry about “ideal husbands” now, girls? Your • prettiness may make you popular now, but it will take more than mere looks to keep you popular as you grow older. Character will be needed, and your school work will help you with that. So, when you return in the fall, study earnestly. Think of your school work as part of the big game of life. Instead of Just something you are forced to do, and you will find it less monotonous. Love Lacking Mis/Lee: 1. I agi a girl 19 years old. About a year ago I went with a fellow whom I

loved. We were engaged to be married* But a girl came between us. I then went with a fellow of whom I thought an awful lot. but not as much ae of the first. A bunch of fellows like to get him drunk. The other night I told him not to go. He said he would not, but je did. We are now engaged. The first fellow does not believe in running around much. Which do you think-would make a better husband? Should 1 make up with the first or second fellow? 2. The first fellow gave me a manicure? set and a signet ring. Should I return these? Everyone says I would be foolish to. UNDECIDED. 1. It is quite evident you do not love this second man, so you should net marry him. Is there any reason you could not have both men as friends, and other men friends, too, without settling the question of marriage until you are sure of love? That would be the best way. 2. You should return any experisive gifts from your former fiance. Chafes at Punishment Dear Miss Lee: I am 15 year 6 old. About three months ago I met a wonderful boy of 20. He asked me for dates, but my parents would not let me have any. I refused for a while, but finally I began to get away and see him. My parents found this out and now they won’t even'let me go out at night. This boy wants me to elope with him, but I don t want to get murried yet. But I cannot stand this much longer. I don't think it's fair for my parents never to let me out, do you? It this keeps up much longer, I know I will run away. Please advise me, Miss Lee. UNHAPPY DOLLY. Dolly, you showed your parents you were not to be trusted, by de- j ceiving them. Now take your punish- j ment without whimpering. Then i prove to them that you have learned your lesson, by never breaking trust t again. Os course you will not run away. That would only make matters worse. jYour parents are trying to do their best for you. Help them, and yourself, too.

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, IN CARE THE SECRET DRAWER I like Ruth Ellington very much, dear little MarquiseOn the night of my dinner party she asked me to go with her the next day on a shopping tour. She wanted her spring hat. She was another woman when we were alone. Talk about the joys of the chase! I venture that no man ever had as much fun with a gun in a well stocked game preserve as a woman does when she is stalking a hat at a spring opening. “Let’s go to that awfully expensive new hat shop,” I said to Mrs. Ellington. “But I can’t afford any of their hats,” she answered. “I know it, but we can get an idea of all the exclusive modes and ideas and then if we see the other kind we will know how nearly they come up to the standard.” “I think I’ll get a black hat,” said Mrs. Ellington as we entered. The pretty young woman who spoke French with an Irish brogue and called us both madamoiselles, soon had us seated in front of the mirror. While we were waiting for her to return, we saw in the next booth a woman who was surely over forty trying on hats. "Don’t show me a black hat. I can’t wear it,” we heard her say. The obliging young wojnan brought her one of baby blue. “My, do you suppose that woman is going to buy that hat?” asked MrsEllington. —“Some one ougnt to tell her it looks terrible on her. It shows up every wrinkle, and ageing defect in her face.”
Young Hope Violinist Plays Stradivarius
ELDO DENNEY
By Times Special HOPE. Ind., July 7.—lt isn’t every young musician who can boast ownership of a real old Stradivarius violin. That is why Eldo Denney, who by the way is a Times carrier, practices his music lessons faithfully. The violin has been In the Denney family since 1735. It was made in 1724, and was brought to this country by Eldo’s great grandfather.
Jones-Whitaker Sales Cos. Capitol Avenue at Vermont
"All right, you do it,” I said and we both giggled so loudly that the woman turned toward us. All of a sudden I knew I was looking upon a tragedy. The woman was vainly trying to find her lost youth. She was trying on hats that were becoming to her young heart and not' her old head. The same thought must have coma to Ruth Ellington, for she said, “Do you know, Mrs. Prescott, I hope my heart will grow old with my face. I don’t want my face to wrinkle, my form to shrink, while my heart stays young. “It must be tragic to want pretty youthful clothes, to long to dance and sing and know all the time down deep in your heart that physically you have grown too old for the things your young heart wants for Its own ” I looked at Ruth Ellington ultyingly. She was young still, hut something was blighting her joy of living. If her heart had not grown older than her face it had grown colder. Both these women were fitting their hats to their hearts Instead of their heads. Ruth Ellington wanted a black hat because, for some reason which I had not found out, her heart was in mourning. The other woman wanted a youthful hat because her heart was still young. *■ I looked over my friend’s shoulder Into the glass and found, thank God, that my heart was still young while from my eyes still shown youth. Next: The letter continued—The “made-over” married woman.
