1 MRJ ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl seventeen years old. Both my parents are dead and I live with my aunt and uncle. I do almost all of the housework and cooking. Now. I do not object to doing this work In return

for my room and board, but I do not think It is fair that I should stay in the house and drudge all of the time and never have a bit of fun like other girls. I know that if 1 were working outside the house that I could earn enough money to keep myself and I would have more time for myself. Even if I were doing housework for a stranger I would earn plenty of money. But my

aunt will not allow me to work and she will not pay me for what I do. Shall I leave her and try to get along by myself? A DRUDGE. I would not advise any young girl to leave a good home and especially one who has had as little worldly ex-

perience as you seem to have had. Try reasoning with your aunt Tell her that you think you ought .to earn your own living and that you will be glad to help around the house and at the same' time pay board. If she permits you to go to work do not continue to do as much around the house as you have been doing. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of nineteen. I have been going with a young man five years my senior. He calls often and takes me places of amusement occasionally. He seems to think lots of men and always treats me nice. I think he is mighty nice and believe I could learn to love him. He is wealthy, owns a fine home and owns a lot of other property. I am just a working girl and sometimes I feel he could never love me and I try to keep from loving him. What shall I do? Shall I try to keep from loving him? JACKIE. Think of the man only as a friend

until he asks you to be more.

' "You don't seem delizhted to

me. I am surprised at you." Harry Underwood towered above me, his handsome face marred by the little leering smile he generally wears, his bold, laughing eyes staring down Into my horrified ones. I do not believe that ever a woman of a more superstitious time dreaded the evil eye as I do the glance of

Harry Underwood. He Is fast becoming a bogle to me. He bobs up in my path at the most unexpected times. And whenever I see him there come involuntary to my mind the cool, matter-of-fact tones of Lillian Gale, and the astonishing words which she uttered at my chafing dish party: "You're not used to our ways, or I shouldn't bother to tell you this. But 1 can see that you are much annoyed at Harry, and I don't blame you. But you mustn't mind him. He Is really harmless. He falls In' love with every new face he sees, has a violent attack, t'an gets over it Just as quickly. You are an entirely new type to him, so I suppose his attack this time will be a littlo more prolongs. He'll make violent love to ycu behind my back and before my facn, but you mustn't mind him. I understand, and I'll straighten him out when he gets too annoying." I ttiVd to sssure myse!f that Mrs. .Underwood had been mistaken, but the look in her husband's eyes whenever he met mine always made me uncomfortable. Thrre was bold admiration in every glance, but also lurking behind it there was a touch of malevolence. I was much puzzled, too, by his presence in the Aquarium. It seemed to me that of all places in the world, it would be the most unlikely to anpeal to him. "How do you do!" I managed to gasp, trying to be courteous and chilling In the same breath. Even with my slight experience in such matters 1 saw that he had been drinking heavily, and that the two men that stood behind him, and who were evidently anxious to avoi.1 attention, were in even worse condition than he. "How do you do!" he mocked, seizing my hand and bringing it almost up to his shoulder in a burlesque of a frigid greeting. "You don't seem glad to see me at all. You don't seem surprised, either. You ought to be eaten up with curiosity to know what brought me down to this godforsaken place. Worst hole I ever struck. I know you think so, too." How to answer him or what to do I did not know. H evidently had been

drinking enough to make himself ir-j responsible. He did not give me timel to ponder long, however. "Who is

your lady friend?" he burlesqued. "Introduce me." A man less audacious than Harrv

Underwood would have been daunted by the picture my mother-in-law pre-1 sented as he turned toward her. Her1

figure was drawn up to its extreme height, and she was surveying him through her lorgnette with an expression that held disgust mingled with the curiosity an explorer might feel at

meeting some strange specimen ofi

animal In his travels. "Mrs. Graham, this is Mr. Underwood." I managed to stammer. "Mr. Underwood. Mrs. Graham, Dicky's mother." My mother-in-law may overawe ordinary people, but Harry Underwood minded her disdain no more than he would have the contempt of a stately riymouth Rock hen. She had lowered the lorgnette as I spoke, and he grabbed the hand which till held it.

shaking it as warmly as If it belonged1

to some long-iost rriend.

"Aren't You Curicus?" "Well, well!" he said effusively. "But this is great. Dear old Dicky's mother!" He stopped and fixed a speculating stare upon her. "You mean his sister," he said reprovingly at me. "Don't tell me you mean his mother. No, no, I can't believe that." He shook his head solemnly. Evidently he was much impressed with himself. If I had not been so miserable I could have smiled at the idea of Harry Underwood trying on the older Mrs. Graham the silly specious flatteries he addressed to most women. My mother-in-law did not deign to answer him. Her manner was superb in its haughty reserve, although I could not say much for her courtesy. As he released her hand she let it drop quietly to her side and stood

still, gazing at him with a quiet disdainful look that would have made almost any other man wince. But it did not bother Harry Underwood in the least. He gave her a shrewd appraising look and then turned to me with an air of dismissal that was as complete as her ignoring of him. "Say!" he demanded, "aren't you a bit curious about what brought me down here? You ought to be. The funniest thing ia the world my being down here."

Collect Bread Crumbs to Send Starving Children LONDON, May 30 Bread crumbs are being collected by school children in certain parts of Austria to be sent to starving children in Croatia.

A Message From "Over There" To All Hoosiers ARE you doing your utmost to support the boys who are now where "Death rides whistling in every wind, and the very mists are charged with awful torment?" You are where the breeze carries the scent of spring blossoms. Is it much that you are asked to reduce yourN ordinary wants, to eliminate non-essentials, to save and to lend your savings to our Government that it may provide the munitions and food now urgently needed by those who are fighting for you?

Stamp Week

The first statewide War Savings Drive in Hoosierdom begins May 27th and ends June 3rd. During- this week it is planned to sell $7,500,000 in W. S. S. At first glance it may seem that $7,500,000 is a whole lot of money to expect to secure in War Savings in one week. But, let us pause and consider how little $7,500,000 means to each of us when spread out over the entire state. It means $2.50 in W. S. S. for every person in the state. This is all just $2.50 each. Certainly we should be able to sell an average of $2.50 per capita in one week. We can and we will if every person in Indiana does his or her duty. Of course some will buy more than $2.50 worth many will have to in order to keep the average up but, many will want to. Because, buying W. S. S. is Patriotic and, W. S. S. is the best investment the Government has ever offered.
