Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson
A Chance to LiveBy Zoe Beckley
Dear Mrs. Thompson Will you please tell me If It is perfectly all right to accept money from your future husband and to let him help buy your wedding clothes? He has returned from overseas and wishes our marriage to take place at once, but as I have not my trousseau c omplete, am asking what to do. WORRIED ELSIE. It !s not "perfectly" all right for a girl to accept money from her future husband, but it is sometimes done. It would be better to marry without a Jrousseau and to buy clothes after marriage. I think, however, if you are working it would be better to wait until you are in a position to buy a simple trousseau yourself.
Dear Mrs. Thompson I am fifteen years old and have been keeping company with a young man I don't like very well. He asked to come to see me. I told him he could not. I love another young man more than ny one I ever saw. My father and mother do not care to have me keep company and said I could not marry until I was twenty. There is another young man to whom I wrote until about three weeks ago. He still writes to me, but I do not answer his letters although he seems to' care a great deal for me. Please tell me what to do. BROKEN HEARTED.
Stop going with boys entirely for two or three years. You are of an age that it would be far better to think about your school work and your
girl friends. Your parents are right In not wanting you to marry until you are twenty years old. Dear Mrs. Thompson I am a girl seventeen years old and in my senior year in high school. I am now going with a boy two years my senior who goes to college and for whom I care very much. I have gone with him for two years. (1) Do you think I am old enough to trust myself to marry him? How old should one be before she considers seriously the question of engagement? (2) My friend's parents do not like me, although I always try to do what Is right. Is It proper for . me to let him come to see me when they object? (3) When my friend takes me to a dance, is it proper for me to dance with anyone besides him? BEAUTY. (1) I do not think you are old en
ough to marry- Wait until you are at least twenty before you consider an
engagement.
j (2) Yes, it is all right for you to let
i him come. His parents probably feel
that no girl is good enough for him.
(3) You should not give your escort
more than seven dances.
True Stories of Successful Women By Edith Moriarty
Lila Sanford has been termed successful by all those who know her even though she has so far failed to produce a novel or other literary work as she planned to do. From the time when she was a curly haired little girl listening to fairy tales she hoped some day to be a real author. In preparation for her life work, or her career as she chose to call it, she specialized in English and composition wherever it was possible in her Bchool courses. She went to high school and college and her name was always connected with the school publications, such as weeklie?, monthlies, year books, and other such school literature. When in high school she applied for a job on the morning paper in her town and became the school correspondent for that particular paper. Of course, by this time her mother and father and all of her relatives were convinced that they had a geniu? in the family ar.d that it was only a a matter of time when Lila Sanford'?, name would appear on the bookshelves along with Charlotte I'.ronte. Mar;' Roberts Rinehart, and other such famous names. Lila acted as correspondent for her paper through her high school and college nays. Writes Society Column. Naturally her t'avii'y and friends expected her to do big things after she had won her sheepskin. It is to Lila'a credii that she (!il not hope for rs sudden success as her family predicted. Sne applied for a job on the morning oaper as soon as she returned home
particular line. Her salary had been raised from fifteen dollars a week to thirty a week and still she had never written as much as one word of the much-talked of novel. Then came the war and the large organizations started their war programs. Publicity and propaganda were the two main departments which had never been particularly well developed in any of the so-called philanthropic organizations. And these were the two departments which could not be organized and headed by the usual social worker. The editor of Lila's paper was called
east to the hadcuarlers of the largest national philanthropic association to head their publicity department. It was not many months before Lila had been summoned east to act as head of the publicity department, in the women's organization of the same nature. It was her job to direct all of the
j publicity in a nation-wide campaign in
connection with their war program. It was a job of gigantic proportions and the thoughts of it almost made her quake as she sat in the train speeding east. Novel Still a Dream. Of course the difficulties she met would make an interesting story in
i themselves and the many experiences ! vhe had would also make good read
ing, but here it will have to be enough
to Eay that at twenty-six years old j
ebe was directing one of the largest publicity programs ever tackled by a woman and she made her department bring results. But still there was no
THE WAR HELPS The war in its onsweep of prepara
tion flung out two wavelets of aid to the Carrolls. "One of our men is leaving for camp," said Artcwright o a certain early autumn day to his assistant shipping clerk. "I'm going to move you Carroll. You've done well. I think you can swing Phillips's job on western shipments. Try it a week. If you make out all right the pay'll be fifteen." Funnily enough, that very day Annie, answering an advertisement that offered 'half-time work to chocolate
packers on war boxes," found she could earn four and a half dollars a week in the candy factory three blocks away, working from nine to twelve. When she heard Bernie's step on the stairs she rushed out to tell her news. He rushed in to tell his, and they collided in a sort of extemporaneous hug. They blurted the good luck In a single breath "Nineteen-fifty!" they chorused. "Nineteen-fifty!" And they did a little dance around the table. "Bern how do your toes feel?" "My toes! What do you mean, mj toes?" "Bernard Carroll " Annie held up an urging finger, "don't your toes feel as though they were gripping the first rung of the Ladder?"
If troubles never come singly, perhaps prosperities do not either. The
tide ebbs, and it flows again. I', seemed to Annie that from the day she found her shorthour job at the candy factory, she could feel Hope surging slowly toward her like a great wave that starts far out at sea. It began with the chocolate money. It gathered strength with Bernard's making good in Phillips's job, which he could not have done but for his grueling summer of study; it became joyously visible at the culmination of a certain romance in the Hargan family. And it broke in glistening white beauty upon Annie's shore one day as she walked common-placely upon the street with her children. The chocolate money, Bmall as it was, gave the Carrolls a little more life. It relaxed the vicious grip o? their poverty. A rich man would have
laughed to see what Annie did with that four dollars and a half! The wolves she banished, the beauties she bought! The securing and holding of Phillips's job did for Bernard what no "easy money" could ever do. It transformed him from a wage slave to a working man. It gave him what none can succeed without encouragement. It set a light ahead upon which to fix his eyes. It relieved him from the possibility of surrender. The romance in the Hargan family was such as occasionally happens out
side the moving pictures. Janie Hargan married her boss's son. Considering that Janie was very pretty and had worked her way up from the milliner's table to a minor management, which brought her into frequent contact with young Mr. Royce, of Bloomfleld Si Royce, Ladies' Sports Hats, Strictly Wholesale, there was no special marvel in it. Perhaps there was, too, on second thought. For Raymond
Royce, in this age of commercial con- j siderations and popular prejudice against mothers-in-law. insisted upon i

Glancing idly at what used to be the quarters of the Young Women's Christian Association, she noted with surprise above the doorway the words "The People's House" cut into the stone and winkink with new gilt. The People's House. What a good sound that had! Annie repeated it to herself a lot of times as she walked on, tugged by the impatient children. She had been reading considerably about "the people" lately in an effort to absorb the cardinal principles of what Bernie called "securing a social and industrial commonwealth." (To be continued.)
