The Diary of an Engaged Girl By Phyllis Phillips
July 7. Am quite used to my shorn locks now, and1 so is everyone else, In fact I have had several compliments about same. My small sister was more surprised tian anyone, for mother has kept her hair bobbed for the last five years and more and Nanny , Is simply pining away for long, luxurious locks, such as I was weary of! That's how life is sometimes topsyturvy. What one person doesn't want, another is aching i!or. Well, I did her a good turn, queer little creature that she is (for after all, Nanny is very young, and must be forgiven for her many offenses). 1 went to mother and asked her to let one member of the. family, at least, be conventional in f.heir-life and appearanceand as it was more than evident that I could', not, or rather, would not, be that one, it must of necessity be Nannyso it would be best if her hair were now allowed to grow long, to make up for my shortcomings! Mother actually agreed, and without any argument at all. And as for Nanny, she was so etffusive in her thanks to yours truly that I was mightily embarrassed. She's Really a sweet, little kid, though, that's just between you and me, little book you hear? Last night when I went to bed I found a red rose under mjr pillow, and a 6crawly note from Nanny thanking me for my goodness to her and swearing allegiance to me and mine in the future no matter what dirt 1 may do or words to that effect. It was most touching. Mother insisted that I go shopping with her this morning, hadf to buy a wardrobe and innumerable odds and ends for the trip. It was quite exciting but could have been much more 60 if I was doing same in an independent way say as a new bride or just on my own hook We got the best looking trunks and all sorts of "notions." which was dull work, to say the least, likewise traveling bags for both of us. Mother was
I
very generous, and let me pick and choose to my heart's content.
I am really getting terribly excited
about the whole trip now that the time for departing draws near. Of
course I feel sad about leaving the friends I love and Jack and others, but it is for my own advancement and therefore good. I still feel that it would be wonderful to be starting off alone yes, quite alone just as a wide-eyed, young student, with all the hopes and dreams of a student in one's heart, and not more than enough money to meet most modest demands. That is the real way to see Europe. It is not the dollars that bring one fun nor experience nor lovers no indeed. It is just the high heart and hopes of youth, plus unbounded faith in one's own ability and ambition. A boundless ambition to do or die, to bring the whole world to one's feet, and be able to pick and choose therefrom, that makes life in Europe a golden memory. Many a poor, young artist has found this out, to his eternal joy. The very smell of my new trunks was exhilerating to me, and I stooped and patted its shiny sides, when no one was looking, and thought of the countless dreams and secrets that would be packed into its four corners. And again I longed to be setting out alone, in search of The Great Adventure, and Sir Galahad mayhap! I wanted to be all alone on the steamer so alone that there was a possibility of being caught in the arms of Chance any arms at all, just so ong as they belonged to the unknown and mysterious, for of such is the Kingdom of Romance composed. Youth demands Romance no matter what price must be paid for it! Oh, the exquisite joy of looking into unknown faces far from home of being desired by the stranger at your gates, or pension door and of dancing deliriously with some Man-o'-the-Mists who is as handsome as he is unknown to you and yours! Do you get me? (Tobecontinued.)

f "While vamping is something new I to me, except from observation," said
I Miss Stewart, "nevertheless I have
always felt that I could play such a part if only given the chance and provided, with the proper make-up. "I have no love for vamps, but I
rather enjoyed playing the part be
cause I thought I could reveal in their true light the characters of those women who are the greatest enemies of man." WASHINGTON Doris May and Douglas MacLean, the attraction at the Washington Theater today and tomorrow in a screen version of the stage play, "What's Your Husband Doing?" The picture is described as a rollicking comedy about young husbands and wives and a grand mix-up at a lively roadhouse. Miss May has the role of Beatrice Ridley, newly married and suspicious of the notes which her husband gets every morning from "Honeysuckle Inn." She consults Douglas MacLean, in the role of John Widgast, a lawyer, and they resolve to investigate. In the meantime, the wives of Widgast and Pidgeou, his partner, have become jealous of the divorce business which their spouses find necessary to talk over with pretty co-respondents and other designing creatures. The real reason for young Ridley's letters are that he owns a share in the Inn and is trying to sell it out. On the same evening that he goes to close the deal, taking Pidgeon with him to draw up the papers, Widgast and the lawyers' wives and Beatrice also appear at the roadhouse. And to cap the climax, the pace is raided by the police. Matters are cleared up the next morning in a police court in a most amusing fashion. RICHMOND.

Heart Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: A younrr man has asked me to go to a picnic wtih him. Am I supposed to provide the lunch? DOUBTFUUL. Usually the girl provides the lunch. If I were you I would ask the young man if he would like to have me take the lunch. He probably expects you to and the situation would be embarrassing if you did not. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am 18 years old and engaged to be married soon to the best boy I know. I love him but I am sure he loves me better. There is another boy, (but he is not among the best, as he. is rather rough) whom I once went with. He still cares for me, but I have not been with him in some time. When he is around in a crowd or near me I always feel different and a little worried afterward. Why do I feel this way? POLLY. My dear girl, I can not advise you too strongly not to marry "soon" You do not love the young man you expect to marry and if you enter into a loveless marriage you will spoil the greater part of your life You are very young and should be enjoying the freedom of girlhood Think what a terrible thing it would be to find the man you could love with your whole soul after you art married You probably feel you cannot hurt your fiance as you will have to by breaking your engagement Remember that he is only a boy and that time will heal the wound It will be fairer to him to say "no" now than to deny him the great blessing of a wife's love. It might be a wise plan to tell him that you are undecided, if that is the way you feel. If, however, you are constantly telling yourself how fine he is and trying to force a love which your heart does not feelv the kindest thing you can do is to break the engagement definitely and at once Love goes where it will and cannot be forced. Your regard for the other man does not mean love. He has a magnetism that fascinates you. Love means congeniality of tastes and thought, as well as the pleasure of having the loved one near.

MURRAY. Although Corinne Griffith is a favorite with thousands of picture fans, she had never appeared on the stage before an audience until she began work on "The Garter Girl," which will be shown at the Murray theater on the first half of the week. She has the role of a vaudeville star, and arrangements were made to stage the theatrical scenes in the Irving Place theater in New. York. Miss Griffith spent a great deal of time preparing for the act. in which she was to sing, dance, make several quick changes and perform an aerial ballet. Miss Griffith was attacked with stage fright. She was especially nervous about flying over the audience on piano wire and being carried to the height of the second balcony. Every precaution had been taken to safeguard Miss Griffith from possible accident, even to the extent of testing the apparatus by allowing a stage hand of twice Miss Griffith's weight to ascend on the slender wire, yet she could not overcome her fear. Miss GrifTim went through the performance with credit and took to the air, sailing over the heads of the amazed spectators. But she forgot to sing her song. The thrill of being suspended in midair while she unfastened a garter and threw it into the throng below made her forget "Days o'Dreams." MURRETTE For the first time in her screen career Anita Stewart appears as a vamo in a motion picture, "The Yellow Typhoon." from the novel by Harold MacGrath. which will be shown

to the screen one of the most powerful dramas ever seen in this city. The story contains all the elements that go to provide the breath-taking daredeviltry and heroism of the drama, v.hile the scenes are so true to life that they simply beggar description. The human interest story that predominates is so effectively told that the interest of the audience is raised to the- highest pitch. The theme is exclusively of today, and the background Is the stirring life of the Southwest. The spirit of humanity in the reform of prison abuses plays a big partA most thrilling scene is the raid of the Mexican bandits on the border
town and the ultimate defeat of the greasers by U. S. troops and cowboys,
Gladys Brockwell, Miriam Cooper, Milton Sills and George Walsh each gave a capital performance.
POST TO DANCE. Paul Hunt post of American Legion, Centerville, Ind.. will hold a dance at
Jackson Park, Thursday evening, July j 1. Music will be furnished by Evan j Smith orchestra. It is planned by the

WATCH OUT FOR DECIMAL POINT, WARNS PROHIBITION DIRECTOR Richmond beverage dealers may be warned against selling decimal pointed near-beer, by the example of the Monument Beverage company, in Indianapolis for even an insignificant
decimal point can play its unlawful part. Charles Orbison, prohibition director for Indiana, believes that near-beer marked ".2 per cent alcohol" must not be sold unless clearly marked to contain less than one-half of 1 per cent, of alcohol. The decimal point may be easily overlooked he believes.

Those who abhor sticky, greasy, shiny, streaked complexions should religiously avoid creams, powders and rouges during the heated days. There is no need for them, anyway, since the virtues of mercolized wax have become known. No amount of perspiration will produce any evidence that you've been using the wax. As it is applied at bedtime and washed off in the morning, the complexion never looks like a make-up. Mercolized wax gradually takes off a bad complexion, instead of adding anything to make it worse. It has none of the disadvantages of cosmetics and accomplishes much more in keeping the complexion beautifully white, satiny and youthful, free from freckles, pimples, blotches and other blemishes. Just get an ounce of it at your druggists, and see what a few days' treatment will do. Use like cold cream. Advertisement.
