"No one knows you over there, so I drove over yesterday and fixed things up." Charlotte did not answer. "Sweetheart." he said leaning down to look into her faco, "You'ro not unhappy about anything, aro you?" Shu shook her head In quick denial, and again they wero silent. Soon the llehts of Greenville began to gleam ahead of them, nnd Charlotte sat up strnlclu as thev drove Into the village snd stopped before a little white house on a street that was hardly more than a lane.

WAITING. It Is far wiser to allow boys to call, when n girl wants to have them come, than to forbid It. It's natural and nor mal for girls nnd boys to bo friends, and If they aro not allowed to meet at home they are apt to find ways of mcet (ntr outside, it u hent to make one s homo n hospitable place, where one s children's friends like to come nnd feel tney aro woicomo. , , It Is bettor not to allow a young g rl out nlono with n boy or with a "crowd. as nicy can it, in mo evenings, nnu should have tin older twrsnn with her.

' And no doubt sho did go back to ber talc of woo and work herself up to a cry when the conversation was over, because that's what always happens when people get as discouraged as Syl via was.

Tho crows had reached the trees of Blrdland nnd had hidden In tho foliage They were walt ng for a signal from Caw-Caw Crow to surprise tho sleeping birds. Soon Peggy henrd a rustling all around her She knew what It meant.

They don't ronlizo how cruelly luinl It is to go on making excuses for your frdf when you've tried nnd failed over nnd over again, through what seems to be no fault of your own. They have never had to stiffen their upper lips, nnd push their chins up and say, for tho fourth or fifth time, "Well, if it hadn't been for that ono little mistake" (or that ono little piece of hard luck, or that one miscalcula tion, or whatever it was), "I'd have done it that time." They don't know how tiresome nnd heart-breaking this kind of self-encouragement Is, because you always know that you're Just bluffing yourself, any how, just whistling to keep up your courugo. And they don't understand that It's becauso you have reached the end of your ropo that you glvo up and spread your hands helplessly and say "I'm Just no use In this world, I d0nT know why I was ever put here." It makes things harder for you that they don't understand, couldn't under stand, nnd probably wouldn't care in if they could. ,0 You have tiiat to fight as well n, yourself. " BUT, after all, yourself Is tho most difficult person with whom you haw to deal. ' Yourself is stubborn, unwilling to be convinced that there Is, there muit be n uso for you somewhere, and that somi time, somewhere, somehow you'll fin, it out. And, too, the laziness and selflshnesi that ,self- pity Inspires nre reaching out for you, eager to pull you down deeper Into that rut of discouragement nnd hopelessness. You have to fight when you get into tins rui; you nnvc to stand un nml drooping mouth corncrs,"nnd that tear ful, wishy-washy statement that there's no uso for you. t That puts you on your mettlo and you have-to go on trying. Your troubles nre mostly vague, any how, you were probably hungry hca you reached tho conclusion that you were of no uso; hunger can do such terrible things with your feelings, STICK it out, somehow, keep on in sisting that you bavo a uso if yon can only find It and keep a mirror handy so that you can shame away that pouting, trembly lip when thing go wrong again and. threaten to pull you under. Somo day, when everything has turned out right, and somebody's said, "good work," or "did you really mak that?" or "I don't know what I'd do without your help," you'll laugh at the recollection of tho poor, pensltiro "weak sister" who used to be reflected there 1 Two Minutes of Optimism IJy HERMAN .1.

There nre going to bo fewer dis appointments In lovo when we learn to love and respect the character rather than tho perton. I'm a normal girl, in my early twenties, and not Immune from being attracted by good looks, fine man ners and clothes, but Just thij same, I'm aiming to And the man whoso character I can love and whom I can respect and there won't bo any road too long or any task too hard for mo to over come. The girls all "dote" on heing seen with a young man whose appearance Is al ways good. The same holds true of the young men. Kach wants to hae tho best-looking, best-dressed lady in the crowd, but we can't linte then, for that. I don't. Instead of looking for the othor person to be most doslrablo, why not begin now to mako ourselves the most desirable, likable young man or woman to be found? Do we ever stop to think of that? Perhaps If wo aim to attract rather than be attracted we will attract ine vtrj unco v,iiu win satisfy our cravings.

If it docs not create, bis particular view '""' point. Half a dozeu people will look nt a thing and no two of them may sec the same thing. Take a woman's hat, for instance : The proprietor of a mi'linery store will look at the hat, and the hat will say: "So much a dozen, so much apiece, so much gross profit." A married mnii looks nt the hot nnd rends: "So much a hat. so many a season, so much dead loss!" The designer looks nt the hat and tliluks: "Good lines, pretty color scheme, nicely balanced." Ono woman glances nt it nnd whispers : "fiorgeous! Hieh ! Nothing like it! More stunning th'au Mary's!" Mary looks at it and fumes: "Outrageous! I.oud! Wouldn't last a week! Colors would run like a racehorse! A lot of trash for a pi'e of cn-h ! A little touching up and last year's will have 'em nil heat a nillo!" So it goes with everything a inau or woman has done or thought tincturing his or her Ideas and conclusions.

Another shudders at the rccol'ectlon of seasickness and bilious headache. And still nuothcr, a friend of mine and a pepful, successful book publisher, looks at the ocean nnd catches its inspiring and vitalizing message. "Keep moviu', boy," it says to him, "keep movin' ! The rcasou I am so popular and so much admired is becauso I nover stop, I just keep on movin'. und rollin', and tosbin', assuming all sorts of fantastic and beautiful forms in mr white-crested waves nnd glorious tints!

"So, remember my lesson, boy keep movin' and don't get discouraged!" Making More Money ISy HandUnc It There's nothing new about the "clear ing house" idea. Klnunclal history tells us that it dates back to the seventeenth century In London, and It's quite pos sible that even the ancient L'ttyptlans knew about it. They understood most things which wo, today, regard as of comparatively modem origin. But, In at least one American city. It took a woman to put a clearing house on its feet and keep it there. Tho city Is Birmingham, Ala. The woman Is Miss Ina Khepard. Vrom tho days when sho first started to Bohool, Miss Shepard exhibited a r. niiiruable "head for figures."
