XproSlenhr. - 2X I MR. ELIZABETH THOMRflDN
Dear Mrs. Thompson (1) I am enRaged to a young man who 1b now in Franc!. Do you think it is wrong for me to go out with other boys? (2) His mother, who lives in the north, and whom I have never met, though we have corresponded with each other, has Invited me to visit her and her three daughters. I am not in a ' positton to entertain them in my home and for this reason I feel that I should not go. I would like to meet them and want them to know me. Do you think I should go? If so, should I take a trunk and how long should I stay? Her son wants me to go. as he told me so before he left for France. (3) Before this dear boy left he gave me a service pin with one star on it, and asked me to wear it. Should I wear it? MARY. (1) If your fiance objects at all to your going with other boys you should not do it. He is making his sacrifice by going to France to fight for you and those dear to him and you should make yours by doing as he wishes while he is away. (2) It is all right for you to visit his people even if you are not in a position to entertain them. If you go plan to stay about a week. Take a suitcase and not a trunk. (3) Yea, wear the pin. Dear Mr3. Thompson I am in love with a young man who sems to care for me; in fact he tells me he loves
me every time he is with me. He Is very fond of hugging and kissing and we always disagree, for somehow I don't think it exactly right. I often wonder if that is all he cares to come for. He is nice to me and he is exceedingly nice to other girls, which of course keeps me In doubt. Last year two fortune tellers told me although he loved me dearly we would never marry. Still I don't believe them. We have agreed a number of times to discontinue our friendship, but he never waits long until he asks to come back. I can't refuse him 'and I frequently break dates for him For a long time, say a year, I have tried to love others but all in vain. I have found others that I think I love, but he always comes first with me. Do you think I could be happy if I should marry the one I love next best to him? This friend is perfectly wonderful to me. Since the one I love best has other girls and devotes much of his time with them, what shall I do? LOUISE. You could not be happy married to one man and in love with another. You will probably outgrow your love for the boy. At any rate remain single until you can love the man you marry. Do not break engagements with other boys for the boy you love. He will care more for you if ho is not sure he can have ou. Give him up
for some one who Is mentally congenial if all he cares about Is kissing.

BOARD OF WORKS TO BUY CARPENTER DAM
Byram Robbins, city attorner. was instructed Thursday by the board of works to draw up a contract with the traction company to the effect that the company put in a temporary gravel pavement on the part of Eighth street that must be improved by them. In two years they will be required to put in a permanent brick, street in place of the gravel. The traction company claims that it cannot put in the brick at present and so a gravel covering is to be put on with a binder to hold it in shape until the permanent brick street is put in. The board ordered that the Carpenter dam be bought and that the city engineer rebuild it the deed will be made out to the Municipal Light plant. Superintendent Dillon of the Light plant reported that the Public Service Commission told him that if the Light plant wanted to furnish the Light.
Heat and Power company with steam the Commission had nothing to do with it. but that the question was up to the city. The clerk was ordered to advertise for bids for the contract to collect garbage and dead animals in the city.

WORD OF ADVENTURE. The aftermath of the Easter-Christmas celebration sounded in many a cheery Jest from the plucky wounded pollus. "Merry Easter!" one would call. Or, "General Sally. I want my Christmas egg boiled soft this morning." Newcomers asked the meanings of these jests, and being told, clamored for another "Sally-made holiday," as Dr. Rolf put it. One afternoon on her day off she was sent for by another group of holiday makers. It was Roger who came with the message and his car. "There's an obHervatlon balloon company near Petlt-Marigny." he said. "Their 'pumpkin' is moored about ten miles from here. They're giving a minstrel show In a barn and want a heaven for Little Eva in their final tableau. They told me they needed
one angel, so I promised to get you." Sally laughed shakily. She had had a hard siege of it through the winter. A laugh was re'axlng; therefore a laugh was welcome. As they were crossing the courtyard an orderly handed Sally a letter. "From Pans!" she said glancing at the postmark. "Steve." She read as she walked to the car. Then she showed it to Roger. "What sort of adventure does he mean?" sho asked with a trace of trouble in her voice. Roger read the note it was no more than that. "Dear Sally Paris has given me my legs, arms and my headpiece back again and I am going to use 'em all on Some adventure inside of seven days. I proposed it to the mighty ores and they're giving me two companies of sappers and a free hand to put it over. SOME ADVENTURE ! ! Oh. girl, wish me success! Think some time of me. Good bye and good luck. STEVE.
Roger handed the rote back with-)
out a word. He started the car ana :hey were on their way before he finally spoke. "It nteara some undermining Job
that he's suggested." he said, the gay-
sty of a few minute before quite gone. "He'll probably be detailed to sneak Into some German position, survey it, map out a tunnel and blow it to Slow It up." "Snuniia tinro rdnm " Thpr wan an
e'e of anxiety to Sally's voice. Roger nodded, not taking his eyes from the. oad ahead. He drove on through the ragged countryside that was putting an its brave spring green despite the Josdatlon winter had left. He did not' peak until they came to a hamlet i hat had been shelled at Christmas by I 3erman guns and was already coming! illve again with new little two-room lomes, freshly built almost upon the I
ishes of the old. Roger directed;
Jally's eyes to a group of women hoexig a wee garden patch in the sun ind some babies playing with a pup. "Life goes on In spite of death," he laid, as if thinking aloud. Then ibruptly he altered his tone and said irrestlngly: "Sally!" She turned to ook Into his face and he went on lulckly: "You know why Stephen Torrance has chosen this most dangerous f oil work; don't you?" Her very tllence answered yes. "He's finding
It hard to go on living," Roger continued, "without some more definite hope of winning you. So he Is deliberately seeking danger. I must ask you one thing, Sally; I must! I don't talk love and marriage and all the heavy artillery of life very much, but here's where I begin. Will you answer me something?" She shook her head, pressing her lips tight. "Oh, don't let's discuss these things, Roger Landls, I beg of you. Let's
keep our minds on the big work at hand. When there is so much at stake t-so much that millions of people are praying for, fighting for, living and dying for, what a a trivial thing it is whether I shall or shall not love this or that man when this cataclysm of war is over!" Roger stopped the car. "Sally," he said gravely, "the hope of your love kept that man from dying made him whole again! Is he deceiving himself, or do you love him still? I have a right to know." To Roger's amazement Sally put both hands over her face like a frightened child. To be continued

How to Grow a Diamond BY FRANK S. CHANCE. . SYNOPSIS 'OF PRECEDING INSTALLMENTS A traveler on a Pullman sleeper hears a man make the assertion that he knows how to grow diamonds. A skeptical friend accuses him of either being a real genius or a liar. Insists on kowing the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Jim tells him that the method was given to him by a prominent Richmond jeweler. The jeweler had formed a diamond-growing club, wherein the members would start by buying a small diamond and later have it exchanged for a larger one. In every exchange the full price paid for the last diamond bought was to be allowed. Jim joins the club and Invests 10 in a very small diamond.

Dnrini? the n o v t
month I cut down on my cigars a little, side stepped a few shows and quit playing pinochle. When
I again struck Richmond I had fifteen dollars to the good and looked up my friend the jeweler. I traded the mustard seed, as you call it, and my fif
teen dollars for a twenty-five dollar
stone. A month later I did the same trick over again. And so I have kept it up until now I have a diamond that no man need be ashamed to wear and I grew it from that tendollar diamond you saw me wearing out West two years ago." "And is the jeweler still running that club?" asked Billy. "He is." "What's his name?" 0. E. Dickinson Copyright, 1918. All rights reserved. Advertisement (To be continued.)
