My business has not stripped me of my femininity. "I do not have to don overalls, troustrs or a "uniform, and leave off my woman's dress. . ' "There is big field in the decorative game for women. I think they can do better than men, because women are naturally more artistic in their temperament. " " ' "I'm called a 'woman painter, , I seek to bo more than that. I seek to be a decorator, a maker of artistic hemes, because 1 love them and believe in my career. There is a wonderful field for my usefulness and talents." .

Dear Mrs. Thompson 1 am a young girl twenty years old. The boys ,all come to me with their troubles and ask my advice, but -they never go with me: I don't know why, 'for i am jolly. It may be because I am not spoony. ' I have been tajigbt not , to spoon and I just can't. What would you advise? LONESOME BETTY. Forget boys for a time and interest yourself in some work or study. If you are happy in what you . take up and radiate enthusiasm and interest, people will notice you. You are probably the kind of a girl who is not popular" with men, but will be deeply loved by a few. The fact . that . you will not spoon does not account for your lack of popularity. Remember that the most fascinating women to men have a way of drawing out and appreciating the best points, in-men. Do not be afraid to tell your young men friends when they do something you admire. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am in love with a young man who is in , camp now. He says he is coming home soon. We were engaged before he left and

he wants me to make preparation for our bungalow or house, and he also says to have it started before he gets

home.

I would like to have you tell me whether I should do this or not. If he should fall In love with another girl I would be spending my money for nothing. ' ' ' . ' YOURS RESPECTFULLY.

Do not start a bungalow or house.

Uneasiness Felt in North ' Over Shortase of Ice (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Feb. 17. It ts too early to become alarmed over a possible ice famine next summer because of the unusually mild weather of December and January, ' according to big dealers in Chicago and other Central West cities. Reports have indicated that considerable uneasiness was felt in the Northwest and in other districts where the supply depends almost entirely on

natural- resources instead of artificial manufactories. As an indication of the unseasonal weather, it is pointed out that Lake Superior, from White Fish Bay to Evil Name, has for some time been free

of Ice. The situation is without precedent in lake navigation history. The ships wintering in the bay at Duluth have been floating free at their moorings. As far north as Lethbridge, Alta., the ice dealers have been hoping for a long cold spell. At Lethbridge the ice in the river broke up late in Jan

uary and the channel was clear in'

two days. It may be necessary to depend on the mountain lakes to the west for a meager supply. Operations in the north woods have been hampered by lack of cold weather this winter, according to reports received here, while snow was heavy, the ground was not frosted solid and the sog in marshes prevented firm roadways through the woods. The long warm spell also had its effect on big coal dealers. In, a number of Central West states where coal shortages -were feared last, Autumn, there is now a surplus and a number of mines for a time ceased operation.

Elmer . Ribkee, who was reported wounded severely In action, and afterwards was reported dead, arrived In Richmond Saturday, and is spending a short furlough at the home of his parents at 1018 North G street. Ribkee will return to Camp Taylor ., in a few days where it will be neces

sary for him to undergo an operation before he is released. Several months ago be was reported wounded severely and soon afterward word came that he had been killed in action. Investigation was made by the Red Cross and other agencies and information was received that he had : died of wounds, but last week word came to his family that he had arrived in New York. Word telling of the safe arrival in this country of Rudolph Price and Mural McKinney was received today. Both men are now in New York City. Corporal McKinney , arrived in New York Friday morning and will, be re

tained at Camp Dix, New Jersey, for a short time, he writes. ; McKinney has been in France since January 8, 1918, and was severely wounded in action on October 4. He saw several months of active service. Rudolph Price saw active service at the front and was gassed several times. He is still in a serious condition, it is reported. Adolpb Gets arrived in the city yesterday. He has seen a year's service in France. , . "

The Diamond Situation

FOR many years the market price of perfect diamonds has shown a constant and definite upward tendency, due to conditions of supply and demand. Since the war the tendency has been greatly accentuated by various factors, not the least of which however, is the growing scarcity of perfect stones. 'Authorities express the opinion that no element can intervene to check the upward tendency of price, for while perfect stones are becoming scarcer and scarcer the demand is growing grater and greater. . We present this situation, not with the motive of unduly influencing the purchase of diamonds, but that patrons may possess the facts and possibly profit thereby. Enjoying the advantage of over seventy yaars favorable connection with the foremost diamond importers and cutters, "The House of Dickinson" presents diamond values which jcannot be duplicated elsewhere. Diamond prices have greatly advanced, but we are still selling at before the war prices. Don't wait if you are in themarket for a diamond. - , Prices range from $15.00 to $1150.00. O. E.
