Dear Miss Grey: 1 am 10.. Am I too young to go to parties
with ktnf My Kilter says I am. What will darken the hair and
stop it from falling? Am I too young to wear, a veil? How old
should a girl or man be before they get married? MAUIK.
. A. —Not If you know how to behave yourself and there is no
older member of the family who will act as an escort. Shampoo the
head 10 days apart for three times with a solution of croollne in
water. Use only enough to make milky. After the 30 days are up. a
diluted isolation may be applied to the scalp, once a day. The above
will stop the hair from falling. You are too young to wear a veil, un
less out driving In the wind. Th« correct age for a man and woman
to marry at depends on their jnattirity. Never before 21 for the
woman and 25 (or the man, unlrus'tlio circumstances are exceptional.

Intermarriage of Different Ke-

Dear Miss Grey: Will you
please help me if there is
any help for me. I have been
going with a young man for
v year and we are thinking of
getting married in Septem
ber. Itiit my mother does
not want me to marry him,
» us he is a Catholic and I am
not. I'll .>»i tell me what to
do. K. H.
A. There are oases where peo
ple of different religious views
are happy together, but It takes
very broad minded people to bring
about this condition. The major
ity are happier if they think alike.
To Learn to Sew.
Dear Miss Grey: I am six
teen .-. ■■:>! old and would like
to learn sewing, without pay
ing much for the lessons.
Where can I get a nice piece.

•A. Apply at the different dress
making establishments in the city.
They often take girls as appren
tices. The Y. W. C. A. also has
a dressmaking school, I believe.

going to get a party dress,
wltat color and what kind of
trimming would yon advise?
Is It all right to be game and
play kissing games at a !
party? RHVMO.
A. Blue, . browns and greens
would be good colors, for you to
wear. Also white and black. For
a party dress I would advise a pale
blue or green, trimmed with white
lace Insertion. The othe- evening
I saw a red haired girl In a white
dress caught up with pink rose
buds and a band of the tame flow
ers in her hair. And they did not
clash but looked very pretty. Her
hair was not a bright color, but
dark. - It is not being game to
play kissing games. Really they
are a foolish and insipid form ot
entertainment. ...

A. The boy may love you, but
simply the sayiug so does not
prove it. You are both young, and
I would advise you to propose to
your parents that you remain
friendly with him, and postpone
the love part." Iv a year's time
they'may have .changed their
minds.
Retter To Go Hlowly.
Dour Miss Grey: I am a
young man about twenty
years old. and have been
going with a young ludy for
about nine months and I do
not care to go with her any
more. Rut she wnuls me to.
How can I get away from
her. I told her I did not
• are to go with her. li. M. W.
A. You probably gave tho young
lady a "rush" and now you have
more on your hands than you can
manage, and come to Cynthia.
Why can't you stop it gradually
and remain good friends?
ARKANSAS PRIMARY^

JOSEPH T. ROBINSON.
Whose nomination by the demo
crats over Governor Donaghey, at
th» primary is the equivalent of
an election, has been in congress
since 1903. At the age of 23 Rob
inson entered the state legislature,
and has been a figure in Arkansas
politics ever since.

Wllhelmina Timmerman and

America's "Mail Lady $>f the Snows" Is Una Barnes
Heroine of Michigan Blizzards
Una iiarues is IS years old. Sh» Ib—or was—a
student of the Western 9tata Normal School ot
Michigan. If she had gone ou to school ahe would
have graduated In June.
Hut Una did not ko on. Instead she put away
her books, and with them her hope of graduation,
put on "boots and overs" and took up the work of
her father when he laid it down.
For her father, a rural mail carrier" out of
Kalaiiiii'/.ini, was too sick to cover his route any
more. Me was down and out; It would bo a long
time before h« would be able to drive the mall
wagon again, lie was in a fair way to lose hU
place In the government service.
And thus It was that Una put away her hooks
and her hopes and drove to and fro in the rigorous
weather of the Michigan winter, visiting dally 400
little roadside mail boxes that the 400 farm fami
lies might bave their mall.
No, not quite daily, either. One day Una failed.
That was a day when she waa snowbound on her
route, unable, because of the drifts, either to pro
coed or to get back to town.

This Is the "yell" of the George

Most folks think' that George
Junior Republics ar» reform

"The curse of the world," he
declares, "is fool parents, and the
George Junior Republic is the one
and only antidote of this disease.

provided that ho or she Is men

the republic themselves decide
this matter.
"The George Junior Republics
are formed for the youth of tne
country between the a>ges of 18
and 21 years. It is the time be
tween those ages that make or
unmake the citizen of the future.

responsibility. The young people
of today, from 16 to 21, are re
lieved of all responsibility; they
are In society, but not of it.
