HAPPIEST PEOPLE ARE CONTENT WITH WHERE THEY ARE
No Wonder This Young Man Isn’t Popular With the Girls or His Boss —He’s Look ing Through the Wrong Kind of Spectacles, Says Miss Lee. By Martha Lee ‘•lf you can’t be the highway, Then just be the trail. If you can’t be the sun; —be a star.” The haziest people are those who are content 10 be the best of whatever they are, where they are. ( • This isn't so easy for a lot of folks. Most of us have a secret conviction that we’re not where we belong, anyway.
If we’re a man, we’re sure tiiat wo could hold down Mr. Higher Up’s position with considerably better results than he's showing, and if we’re n woman, we know that Mrs. Stunning doesn’t cut half as wide a Swath as we could if we “just had ker chance and her clothes.” That sort of reasoning is comforting to our pride, but it’s generally not true. We’re usually where we are because our line of thought and activity have put us there. We’re wise then, if instead of slowing up our progress by keeping eyes cast on the other fellow’s opportunities and position, we dig in hard and get the most out of our own! Wants More From Life Dear Martha Lee: This is not a love lorn question for I have never been in love and do not expect to be. but I would like to (ret more out of life than I do. lam a young: man 22 years old and I am thrown with a bunch of dumbbells where I work. The boss is the worst dumbbell of all and he certainly plays favorites. There have been a number of chances for promotion tn the two years I've been working here, but he picks out the dubs that kow tow to him I get a fair salary but I'm thinking of getting out of here. I would also like to be more popular. Do you think I'm in the wrong kind of com. nanr? I never find any girl that seems interesting. They all have the same line. JIM. Change the color of the specs you’re looking through, Jim, or you're going to crystallize into a sour old man before many years. If the girls all seem alike, you haven’t met the right one I suppose, but with the pessimistic kind of thought
Wisdom for Wives
By Mrs. Walter Ferguson Now and then you will hear this remark from a woman: “I’m going to the movies this afternoon. Bill hates to have me go so often, but then what he doesn’t know can't hurt him.” Every married woman on earth understands this little deception and in her heart, does not criticise, because she knows that in some small way site does the same thing to her husband. But. somehow, you can't help wondering why more wives do not apply this axiom both ways. What they •’don’t know can’t hurt them, either. A large share of women’s unhappiness is brought on by their overweening curiosity. They are seldom content to let well enough alone. They must be forever searching out a husband’s intentions and keeping a watch upon his daily actions. And. now and then, they do find things to hurt them. This is not to say, of course, that it is the wdse thing consciously to overlook glaring deeds, but It is to insist, that a lot of overlooking of small things is absolutely necessary to happy marriage. For many wives literally drive their husbands to unfaithfulness by their very suspicions. The average decent man respects the trust of his wife above everything else she can give him, and husbands are sometimes saved from fall by the knowledge that to harm this faith would be to lose something very precious from their lives. And the male always resents surveillance. He hates being spied upon or dotted, even though his behavior merits this. Suspicion, nagging, palpable distrust has never brought happiness to any woman. The things in themselves foretell disaster. There are many compliments you can pay to the man you love, but to let him know that you trust him is the greatest of these.

you seem to have, you probably wouldn't know her if you met her. Os course, if you’re positive that your boss is prejudiced and unfair to you, you might do well to change, but the chances are that ’you have created a nice little crust of resentment between you which is acting to your detriment. Keeps Her Guessing Dear Martha Lee: 1 have a fellow who keeps me in hot water all the time. 1 love him. and he knows it. but I don't know whether he loves me. because lie has dates with other girls. If 1 would have a dato he would want to quit me. as he says he would not have a girl who lias dates with others. WORRIED MARY. The young man will have more consideration for you, Mary, if you are more independent with him. He has no right to expect so much more loyalty from you than you do from him. Make him understand that and don’t be afraid you'll lose him by so ..doing. Kissed Another Man Dear Martha Lee: I wish you would tell me what to do. I have been going with a girl for the last six month? * I have been sick in lied for the past two months, and this girl has told me she loves me, but one night recently she went to the home of a girl friend, and I now find out that there were two fellow'6 there and that she kissed one of them. This is the fellow she used to talk of a great deal, and before i got sick she said she wouldn't notice him again. Doesn't this look bad and as if she is not true to me? I have been true to her. A. B. Well that doesn't seem so good, does it? As you don't mention that you’re engaged, you really have small right to control her actions, however. You might mention it to her. Perhaps it's a false report. “Lonesome and blue.” IS. writes she's in love with a married man, who made her care for him before she knew that he had a wife and baby. He tells her that he isn't living with his wife: that he intends to get a divorce and wants her to marry him then. If you’re wise, “Lonesome anl Blue” you’ll never see this man again. He deceived you in the beginning. What! guarantee have you that he won't again? ‘‘G. D.” writes that while only M years old, she’s violently in love with a man whom her parents don’t let her see, but who manages to give her presents and see her on Sundays. “G, D.” is treading on very dangerous ground and if she values her good name and perhaps even hW future happiness, she will accede to her parents’ wish about this man. “Miss Grace J” is on the verge of eloping with a ‘‘very handsome young man. 23 years old.” Grace is less than 18 and wonders if she should let this man “take her away from her father.” She's sure that her father would not give his consent. If he won't. Grace, there must be a good reason and don't do this underhand tiling. Tell your father and as you are so young, you w r ill have plenty of time to ocnvince father, if this is really the right man.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Peculiar footprints and a bit of tom strap suggest that the murderer micht be a cripple, but this evidence is not presented. Cherry is indicted for fl.st degree murder. Bob plays burglar in Ralph Cluny'* office and finds the threatening letter written him, which Cherry had described. “Churchill is not inclined to put much stock in worth of the clew.” Bob Hathaway admitted reluctantly. “He says that every lawyer is pestered with crank letters of this sort—written by prisoners who brood over fancied wrongs. Every district attorney receives thousands of

threats and never pays any attention to them.” “But isn't Churchill going to trace the sender of this letter?” Faith demanded indignantly. "After all it is a threat, and it was received during the months that Cherry worked for your uncle. It seems to me it should be an easy matter—-comparatively easy anyway—for Churchill to check up dn all the men defended by Mr. Cluny and sentenced for ten years.” “The sentence was probably indeterminate,” Bob pointed out. “Or his term might have been whittled down by good behavior. By the way, there is one thing I didn't tell you. By good fortune the original bears the date it was received. All his letters were, stamped with a rubber date stamp and we can be 'sure Uncle Ralph saw it for it is marked in a corner by his initials.

them, made a penciled ntv or two. There was nothing but his initials, however, on this bird’s letter.” “He was sent to prison ten years ago,” Faith interrupted impatiently. “Surely not so awfully many of your uncle's clients were sentenced to prison just exactly ten years ago.” “But wo don't know how long after the trial he waited for a Supreme Court ruling on his appeal. But of course Churchill will ferret out *?ie writer of this letter, if it is humanly possible.” “Court records are available,” Faith protested. “And you at least have his initial —” “This bird is crafty,” Bob pointed out. “That may not be his initial at all.

This letter, if it could be nailed on anyone, would coyvlct him, you know. “Then as Churchill says, this may be from a completely demented crank, whom Uncle Ralph, if he were alive today, could not possibly Identify. But don’t look so disgusted, child. Os course Churchill is going to investigate. But he doesn't want us to pin much faith on the thing as a clew. He says if I went through the files I would undoubtedly find other such letters.” “How are you sure that this is the one that Cherry remembered?” Faith asked suddenly. “Because she remembered that It was written as I have described —not written at all, but pasted up from words cut from newspapers. She remembers being interested in it when she filed it, but she says Uncle Ralph was not in his office at that time,

and she didn’t remember later to speak to him about it. She does say, too, that it was the only threatening letter of its kind that she filed during the time she worked for Uncle Ralph. He had as few enemies as any criminal lawyer ever made, I believe.” “Did she remember if your uncle ever had a visit from a newly released prisoner?” Faith asked, frowning thoughtfully at the copy of the letter she still held her hands. “Churchill asked her. of course, but she doesn't remember any visit. Os course such a man migfc* have called and not been noticeable enough to make an Impression on her memory. Uncle Ralph saw a lot of callers who did not state their business to his secretary.” “I know!” Faith exclaimed, “Ask Mr. Neff, jour uncle's law partner. Ho ought to know.” NEXT: Black veils.
