CLEVER GIRLS DON’T PINE AWAY WHEN ‘HE’ LEAVES TOWN

There Are More Ways Than One to Bring Him Back— Jeanne Writes Her Husband Doesn’t Know Now Why He Married So Soon. By Martha Lee An interesting letter has come to this desk. It’s an answer to a girl who last week signed herself “Worried,” and who wae terribly concerned because her sweetheart had left town with only a hazy half-engagement between them. The person answering “Worried” is a woman signing herself “Jeanne.”

Dear Martha Lee: The letter of “Worried" takes my thoughts back several years aso. and I have to smile. I had a young man friend. There was no definite engagement, no ring; just a very close friendship. He left town going to a oity 600 miles away, without a word as to future intentions or plena. Just as “Worried” is doing now, I did then. I fretted and wondered. Then I wrote a letter. I told him what a wonderful time I was having here; how "we" had been to a dance, or on a hike, or of having attended a play, etc. I casually mentioned “Fred.” who had returned and was planning to stay (he was. but just for a week). I also told my absent friend that we all missed him. but wished him the best luck in the world and added casually that he might “Drop me a line once in a while.” Well, within three weeks from that time, we were married, and had gone to live in that distant city. Hubby doesn’t know vet just how that all happened and has more than once remarked. How did 1 ever happen to get married so soon?” Anyway. no sensible girl wants to pine away, and while this may not work in all cases. it did in mine. JEANNE. Which Shall He Marry? Dear Martha Lee: I am in love with two girls. I have been engaged to one of them for more than a year. She ib very well to do. I met the other one only six months ago. She is a poor working girl, ' buWto me she seems the most wonderful girl I have ever met. Now what shall I do? • LEWIS. Seems that you haven’t much choice of action, Lewis. The decent thing for you to do is to tell the first girl that you have found the girl pt your dreams. Os course it will hurt her and you will have to show much tact and gentleness, but as it would be far worse to marry her, loving another. The sooner you tell her the better. The money question tlon should not enter into this at all. Wants to Win ‘Sheik 1 Dear Martha Lee: I have a boy friend who is twenty and who is what you might call a “sheik.’’ He has so many girl friends that he can’t remember them all by name. X am eighteen, considered good looking and likt the rest of the girls. I’m crazy about him. He has a winning way and an awful “line" and hands this out to all the girls the same way as he does to me. Now Miss Lee. I know he can't be really worth much but I can’t forget him because Ive trted to. How can X win him? MISS K. T. I don't guarantee you'll win him, but these suggestions should help. A. "sheik’’ kind of fellow is surfeited with women's attentions and is pleasantly surprised and his vanity shaken when he knows of a girl who takes him as more or less of a joke. He’ll almost Invariably try to change such a girl’s Indifference into the admiration to which he is accustomed. It’s heavy and unsatisfactory, playing up to a sheik, but if you’re determined your success lies in never letting him suspect that you think he is any more than ordinary.

Dear, I can’t refrain from calling your attention to the fact that there are three glaring grammatical mis takes in your letter. The reason I mention it Is that I wonder if you aren’t neglecting your educational opportunties for all these new boy friends? I wouldn’t if I were you. You re quite right in not having a “steady” yet. If your party is chaperoned, it might be all right to ask the “pretty nice young man” to go along.

THE STORY SO FAR RALPH CLUNY. 68. was murdered met before he was to have married .CHERRY LANE. 18. As 11 that not enough for people to talk about. Cherry disappeared, leaving a note for her sister, FAITH, etying she could not go on with the wedding. Later it was discovered Cherry had run away and married CHRIS WILEY. News of the murder Is kept from Mrs. Lane, Cherry's mother, who is in a hospital suffering from heart trouble. All she knows is that Cherry has run away and married CHRIS WILEY. Cherry has lived a butterfly life. Always there have been many men In love with her and she has been engaged to more than a few. She tried to run away with ALBERT ETTLESON, a married traveling salesman, and was rescued by Faith and a young man. 808 HATHAWAY. Up to tills time Bob had been very much interested in Cherry, but now he paid more attention to Faith, who has loved him for a long time. They are engaged now and although Faith did not want to announce it yet Bob has tojl the police and -tilt world in general. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY “Hello, Faith,” Chris Wiley lifted his tall, thin body from a deep leather chair and strolled toward the sisters nonchalantly. “Sorry our elopement has gotten us into all this mess. We didn’t dream there was any trouble until we read the papers this morning. Won’t you shake hands?” Faith tightened her arms about her weeping little sister and shook her head slightly. “I’d —I’d rather not, Chris.” “Pardon me, Faith," Bob Hathaway appeared in the doorway of the library. "The coroner is ready to proceed. He has given both of us permission to hear the case.” "Do’t let thepi think horrible things about me, Faith,” Cherry begged, clinging frantically to her sister.’’ The two officers stood at their elbow as they separated. Cherry to be led into seclusion in one corner of the library, Chris Wiley in another. In the drawing room were scores of people, among them Alexander Cluny and his wife and son, young Ralph Cluny) sun assistant district attorney. Near the great bay windows, rich with heavy silk draperies, and only a few feet from the long table at which COroner Murchison and his jury of six were seated was a bier on which rested the sheeted remains of Ralph Cluny. That bier was the first thing that met Faith’s eyes as she entered the room on Bob Hathaway’s arm, and she shuddered as she turned her head sharply away. A full half hour was taken up with prellminafles, including a report of the first officer of the law who had entered the death chamber after Bob Hathaway had reported his discovery of the murder to police headquarters. Dr, Enos Paxton, chief medical officer .of the county, called In by Dr. Muchshlson, the coroner testified briefly. He also Indicated a large Chinese vase, broken at the lip, as the Instrument of death. “It is then your opinion,” the coroner summed up, “that death occurred between half past eight and a quarter to nine on the evening of Nov. 25?” “It is,” Dr. Paxton nodded. “That,” declared the coroner, himself under oath, “corroborates my

own findings, as the first medical man to examine yie body. Officer Sims, have the maid, Mary Kearney, brought. In." There was a stir of interest, a muted flurry of whispering throughout the ranks of spectators, who included Police Chief Morehouse and Charles Banning, district attorney. Every one present knew that Mary Kearney would be the star witness for the State when the case would be brought to trial. And it would be largely upon her testimony that the findings of the coroner’s Jury would be based. After she had been sworn, Coroner Murchison began his questioning. “What is your name?” “Mary Anastasia Kearney, sir.” “Your age?” Mary Kearney blushed and bridled. “Thrlty-three—l mean, thirty-six,” she remembered her oath and corrected herself hastily, but with an involuntary glance at the doorway In which two policemen lounged. “Your birthplace?” “Dublin, Ireland, but I’ve been naturalized. I have my second papers,” Mary Kearney answered belligerently. “Now, Mary, what Is your occupation?" “I have been parlor maid In Ralph Cluny’s house for three years, sir. Before that—” “All right, Mary. Now, tell us, In your own words, just what happened, within your own knowledge, In this house, from 8 o’clock on, ,on yesterday, Thanksgiving day.” (Copyright, 1926, NEA Service, Inc.) NEXT: Mary Kearney begins to weave the net that is to snare Cherry Wiley.

Yale Club

As far as I remember this Is the first time that the Yale University Dramatic Association has sent its yearly product to Indianapolis. Last night at the Murat this organization presented “Out O’Luck,” a dramatic offering with a mixture or a. dash of comedy. “Out O’Luck” is "similar to "What Price Glory,” and is rather strong in language. It’s chief strength rests in a back of the lines entertainment staged by the soldiers. The cast is as follows: A German Captain .. ~ ... . Arthur L. Shipman. Jr., 1928 A German Lieutenant Charles T. Bingham. 1928 A German Sergeant William B. Moslo. 1930 Jeane Marsso Edmard L. Mills. 1926 Captain Alonzo Smith Theodore S. Ryan. 1927 Lieutenant Hayes K. Boocock, 1929 Sergeant Higgs Rupert B.

The program states that this play was written In 1919 from notes made during the St. Mihiel drive, and it is claimed nearly all of the episodes are based on an actual happening.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

WOMEN FAR FROM BEING TALKATIVE Who Originated After Dinner Speeches, Preachers, Congressmen? By Mrs. Walter Ferguson Are you one of the persons who has always thought of woman as the talkative* sex? And yet, everybody knows we did not originate the after dinner speech. We didn’t start the idea of having public luncheons with a little talk between each course. We never preached a sermon. For man himself was the inventor of the gavel. Everything we do now, from putting on a community fund drive to electing a justice of the peace, must be prefaced with a lot of long-winded speeches. This is no doubt why we are so unconcerned about all the excellent purposes of civic work and so utterly lax in our-efforts to get decent men in political offices. By the time all the speakers got through with-us, the average listener doesn’t care much what happens to either himself or the world at large. Sunday would take on new pleasures if all the preachers in the country would cut their sermons in half. Political campaigns would be things of joy compared to the nightmares

An initial catch of black enamel and strass is anew whim in pearl jewelry designed for the holidays. they now are. if we could eliminate about 90 per cent of the oratory. Banquets might not be such boring events, if we could have more food and less talk. This propensity that the men have for for “rising to make a few brief remarks” is going to be the ruin of this country yet.

You’d think that the horrible example of Congress would make these men hesitate, but they soon impervious to warnings. Look at the way Congress is degenerating. And 'what has caused it?

And as Congress seems to be the final goal of all these men who would rather talk then eAt, what Is to prevent us from believing that they will eventually all be as longwinded and uninteresting as the average Congressmen. t IT DAMAGES THEM When you put the egg beater to soak, do not alow the cogs to get wet.
