Divorce in your case would be Justified if you cared to resort to it. The law will see that he rrovides for the child.
I am a girl eighteen years old and I am in love with a boy about two years my senior. I do not believe I would want to marry this boy. He says he is going to ask me to marry in two years. But I do not want him to marry any other girl. I have not seen him in about three weeks. Do you think he is quitting me? THANK YOU. It looks as if the boy were losing interest, or vou would have heard
from him In three weeks time. Do not take your relationship with him too seriously. If you lose him take your loss philosophically and know that there are a lot more boys left and you are going to enjoy some of them. Probably you are holding too tight reins on the boy. You certainly want him to be happy and if he could be should be willing to let him. It is very selfish to begrudge his marriage to another. He probably feels your attitude and does not like it.

Twe Million Yards of Lace Wanted by Navy
Crocheters, here is your chance for service. The war industries board received a request Tuesday from the navy department asking for 2,000,000 yards of lace. The members of the Richmond board were mystified as to what use the lace Is to put, but of one thing they feel sure of and that Is that "Jackie" is not to be "trimmed."

Dear Mrs. Thompson Do you think a girl sixteen years old is too young to have boy friends call at night? BILLY. A girl of sixtfen is very young to receive boy callers in the evening. Sometimes, however, her parents do not object and then if she let? a boy come occasionally to stay until nine or ten o'clock it is all right. I think it is better for a girl to wait until she is older before she entertains boys.

This fine jewelry stock consists of: Ladies' and Gentlemen's fine Gold Watches, Diamonds, Solid Gold and Gold filled Jewelry, clocks and silverware of all kinds. An Opportunity for Conservation Now, at a time when the word conservation Is generally understood in every household throughout the length and breadth of the land, comes a really great opportunity for economy. Christmas and Yuletide days are a matter of a short time, and they will be here. Jewelry has advanced In price considerably since we last observed our holiday season, and many of us this year will probably turn to other channels for a solution of our gift remembrances, but here is your opportunity Jewelry has always been of foremost consideration as presents and the saving you can now make in attending this auction sale of jewelry will be of timely importance. Buy your Xmas presents now, take advantage of the big saving offered you, and thus, conserve and help to win the war. Shop to Remain Open I am not leaving the city but will continue in my same old location at 1021 Main street doing Watch Repairing, Clock and Jewelry Repairing. My sole reason for conducting this sale is I am subject to the next draft and in all probability may be called on to do some kind of government work. Also the government is placing a 10 tax on jewelry and I want to place myself in a position that I can step out easily and take up government work and the same of which I have been thinking seriously of doing.
