Advice to the Lovelorn
p NOT YET ENGAGED
Dear Misa Fairfax:
I am twenty. In love with a man
ten years my senior. He Is a man
of wealth, and I am sure that ho re
turns my love, but owing to the ob
jections of his family, as. X am a poor
i working girl, he has not yet asked
roc- to marry him, although lie hp.s
told me of his love.
Xow, my dear Miss Fairfax, do you
; think he means to marry me?
BESS.
Such a situation as you describe
L is always more completely in the
hands of the woman than the man or
if his family realize. There is rather
a crude phrase that describes it,
known as "playing your cards well,"
of which you probably know the
meaning as well as 1.
You must not let the difficult situa
tion in which you are placed discour
age you—you must have endless pa
tience, tact and good humor. At the
same time you must be absoultely cir
cumspect. and, above all things, do
not let your heart run away with your
head. It is the level-headed girls
who win, rather than their more im
petuous sisters.

Two Views of Old Eighth and Crowd That Greeted It
! STALWART VETERANS
GET REAL WELCOME
[Continued from First Pace.]
I see him." In her hand she held a
letter which had told of the date of
his leaving Brest.
From the time when the parade
swung out into Market street from
the Pennsylvania Station until the
tired and happy soldiers trudged
j toward homes they had not seen for ]
j many months, the march was a
| grand, triumphal entry into the city.!
j The surging crowd defied all police
I regulations and broke into the street
j where gray-haired mothers, stalwart
and beaming fathers and joyful
isweethearts pulled their own war
! riors into their arms.
First Greetings
i "Hello. Bill!" "Why, there's Jack!"
'"Mother, there's our Tom!" These
were the constantly re-echoed excla- I
j matlons of those who stood along |
;the sidelines, and frequently a moth
er who had been tottering along in
! her frail way before, Suddenly be
icaino as agile as a squirrel or a
street gamin as she darted through
the crowds to her own beloved boy.
Near Market street on North Front i
were a half dozen women watching
the parade. Their husbands were
overseas. "I have two sons who
fought for Liberty! One of them Is
in a base hospital and " she "
couldn't finish her sentence because
of the sob in her voice but a gold
star on a black band around her
arm told the story more Impressive- i
ly than words.
There were scores of anxious
mothers along the streets who
watched for thoiir sons, with eyes
and face beaming In mother love.
"There he is!" came the glad shout,
when suddenly a boy, barely passed .
bis teens would come tramping up
the streets. A glimpse of the moth
er was enough to bring happiness to
every boy.
At first tho crowds applauded. But
after first glad moments of meeting,
there was silence, deep and golden,
rot hearts were too full for spon
taneous demonstrations. Everybody
was happy, too happy to talk sensi
bly. "How's the cat?" a soldier said
to his sister as they stood chatting
011 the corner of Second and Walnut
! streets,- after the big parade, watting
for a car. "Cat?" his sister quos
: tioned. "Why do you ask about the
| eat?" 'I want to know everything
! about my home," came the explana-
Ition. It was simply an illustration
!of the gladsome spirit that reigned,
jsave in the cases of those mothers,
Whose golden starred armband told
their pitiful tale. "My boy was In
'that company, and he sleeps In
France now" said one of these
mothers, as she dabbed at her eyes
with a cotton handkerchief, that was i
wet with tears. "He died in the Ar
gonne fighting and his colonel sent
me a wonderful letter pf praise."
Boy Scouts won much enthusiastic
comment from their splendid service.
|Yeomanettes, who came hand in
jhand with nurses who had seen over
seas duty, were given an Immense
' ovation.
Once, they had met their boys,
[fathers, mothers, sisters and sweet
hearts could not be torn.away, but
walked side by side.
Colorful Scene
Up at Second and North streets,
there was a colorful scene when all '
the vivid mass surged to the arm
ory past the Victory Arch, and tried
to get in, but their task was hope
less.
The band struck up "The Star
Spangled Banner" as the parade
halted near the Armory. Jane Mac-
Donald, Mrs. Chris H. Sauers. Al
meda Herman and a bevy of other
motor messengers with automobiles
chockful of wounded soldiers, wore
dark looks, for It meant their soldi
ers must struggle to tfcetr feet. "Nev
er mind, lady, we can do It," said
a private with a wound stripe on his
arm and his other arm in a sling, as
* jfc- . '•
he managed to climb up to atten
tion.
Greeted By Comrades
Those along the sidelines did not
only include the mothers, the sweet
hearts, the fathers and the friends
of the marching soldiers. There
were also the men of the 28tli Di
vision who had been sent home be
fore the units, many with wound
stripes shining on their sleeves.
There was Captain John T. Bretz,
Captain E. J. Stackpole, Jr., Captain
Crow and Captain E. H. Schell,
Lieut. James T. Long, and a score of
others who greeted their comrades
with a warm handgrasp. Harrisburg
soldiers who were not in the 28th
Division, were there too with their
welcomes. Among these were men
who had been in separate units and
bad not met for many months, al
though they were lifelong chums.
Sergeant Wilber N. Potter, of
Company D. carried the colors of
♦he 112 th Infantry in yesterday's
parade. They had gone through the
thick of the fighting and had been
carried many times since the ces
sation of hostilities. "I guess the
colors will stay home for a while,"
Sergeant Potter said. "They sure
had some experience In Franca."
Verifying the statement that the
Y, M, C. A. sticks hy the soldier all
the time, Demobilisation Secretary
C. W. Clark of the Central "Y" met
the soldiers at tho train and gave
them clgarota, tobacco, chocolate,
postal cards and matehor. Some of

Mechanlcsburg and Carlisle people
had their own celebrations. Fifteen
automobiles from Mechanlcsburg
and a number from Carlisle brought
their soldiers home and in each town
the hands and Are engines and
whistles and bells contributed to the
general uproar of welcome in the
Cumberland Valley towns.
The Hope Fire Company's engine
house at Second and Xorth streets,
faced a beautiful triumphal arch
which was erected by members of
the company for the great welcome.
An illuminated keystone at the apex
of the arch, symbolized the Keystone
Division. The triumphal pylons
have on them the names of the
members of the company on the roll
of honor.
Officers In Line
The procession was lead by Chief
Marshal Charles 11. Berg, named to
this position by the Home Folks' Vic
tory Association, in charge of the ar
rangements for tiie parade and recep
tion afterwards. Following came
Colonel Maurice E. Finnev, who served
with the Twenty-eighth Division mili
tary police; Colonel .lames B. Kemper,
of the Harris-burg recruiting district,
and Captain E. Laiflienstein, chief-of
staff, anil himself a Spanish-American
War veteran.
Lieutenant Colonel Edward H.
