Dear Miss Brooks: May I enter your busy little corner? You always seem willing, whatever the question may be. Will you kindly an-swer this question for me? Maybe you will think I am foolish for asking such a question. Can you explain the games of Five Hundred and Bridge? Now dear, do not bother to answer both questions this time. I will wait for one of them until next time. Wishing you the best of health and happness, MRS. J. B., I'rovo, Utah. Surely you may come, and I am very glad to have you with us. No, I think It perfectly all right for you to ask any question you wish, this Is what my cor-ner la for, and I will do my very best to answer. But, my dear lady, should I print full Instructions for these games so It would really be of assistance to you In playing the games, there would be room for little else here, so now I am going to ask you to let me send you a little book of Hoyle which fully ex-plains every card game played today. Or better still, you may be able to get this In your book stores at home. The price Is 25 cents. Is this satisfactory? Dear Miss Brooks: (1) We are very much In need of your advice. Is It proper for girls of our age, from 12 to 14, to go without a chap-erons to a dance In the evening? (2) What Is the name of the latest dancing step? Wishing you bushels of buccess, we remain, SMILES, DIMPLES, CURLY-LOCK- S and BEAUTY. Mayfleld, Utah. I hope you will be as anxious to ac-cept my advice as you seem sincere In asking It. (1) I cannot and do not ap-prove of girls your age going to a pub-lic dance at all, my dear girls, and I earnestly advise you not to do so, and under no circumstances should you go without being accompanied by some older member of your family father, mother, or brother. (2) The latest dance I am at all familiar with Is the Frisco Walk and the Scandal Walk. These are but parodies of the Fox Trot. Diar Miss Brooks: This is the first time I have written to you, and hope It will be a success Please answer the following questions. (1) I am a boy of fourteen. Is It proper to take a girl home from a party, dance, etc.? (2) Is It proper to play kissing games at a party? Thanking you very much, I remain, GIRL CRAZY, Logan, Utah. Your letter was a success Insofar as It has reached me safely, and now for a successful answer. (1) My dear boy, you may see that a girl reaches home sfifely from a neighborhood party per-haps, but you are not attending "dances, etc.," are you? If so Hint is not proper When you are old enough to go to these places, escort a girl there, but I hope by that time there will be no girls who go alnnr, whom you can take home. (2) Absolutely not. There are many other games to be played which are much more wholesome and Interesting to all cencerned. DAWN. Fmlthfield, Utah,: In the song "Comrades," this one Is all I found Do you think this Is the one you wished? COMRADES Wt, from childhood, played together my dear comrade Jack and I, Ws would fight each other's battles, to each other's aid we would fly, And In boyish scrapes and troubles you would find us everywhere: Where one went the other follow'd, Naught could part us for we're Chorus "Comrades, comrades, ever alnce we were boys; fharlng each other's sorrows, Pharlng each other's Joys. Comrades when manhood wsa dawning, fal'hful whate'er might betide; When danger threatened my Jolly old Comrade was there by my side." When Just budding Into man hood, I yearned for a soldier's life. Night and day I dreamed of glory, long-ing for the battle strife; I sMd. "Jack. I'll be a soldier, 'ncath the Red, White and Blue. Oocd-b- Jack." said he, "No, never. If you go then I go too for we're, Chorus I efillated. Jack came with me and ups and downs we shared. For a time our lives were peaceful but nt lenirth war wns derlnred England's Flag had been Insulted, we were onlered to the front, And the regiment we belong'd to had to heir the battle's brunt, we were Chorus T'NK ROSE. Clear Like, Utsh: I canfot give you the address desired. wl'I'out first hsvlng your name, at lenf. Read rules carefully at heiid of rol.imn. so you may not he dlnappolnted whev you write your next letter. Dear Miss Brooks: H'pe we are welcome to enter your cnrnr. We think It Is very Interesting Will you please answer the following questions for us? (1) Is It proper to mine home from a dunce, or any other entei 'alnnient. with a bov when he did not take you there? Nearly all the grli In our home town do this, and If you don't the boys sav, "We don't care, there are plenty of girls that will." We are fifteen years old. (2) What colors would you suagest for a girl to dress In who has medium brown hair and fair ekln and blue eves, and girl with black hair, far skin and blue eyes? Also, what style would you suggest for a fleshy girl to wear? ? Thanking you in advance, we are, . KATE AND DUPLI-KAT- Dixie. You are welcome, girls. (1) And now If you have been reading my cor-ner carefully you will see I have been very emphatic In my advice that girls should not go to public places of amuse- - ment when as young as you are, and regardless of age, to never go alone, but with an older brother, father, or some older member of your family. Your question shows the truth of this very plainly. Boys of this age do not know how to treat a girl In a gentle-manly way, It seems, and a girl who attends a public dance unattended by a proper escort, places herself In a posi-tion to be treated disrespectfully by these boys. Do you not see this now? I am glad you hare at least bad the courage of your convictions and refused to accept their escort home. If mora girls would do this, the boys would soon be acting quite differently. (2) As I have answered your first question at some length, I will refer you to last week's paper for colors suitable to the complexions described. A stout figure should favor the long, straight line and avoid a definite waist line or trimming which encircles the figure. Dear Miss Brooks: I have been reading some of ths let-ters written to you and was very Inter-ested In the answers given and would like very much If you could publish the song, "Bury Me Not on a Lone rralrle," and give me the address of Miss Esther Gray. Wishing you suc-cess, I am, your FRIEND, from Garland. Utah. I am glad to know you find my cor-ner Interesting. (1) Yours Is the sec-ond Inquiry I have had for this song, but as yet I have not located It. If I do so will be glad to print It. (2) It will be necessary for me to know more about whd the Esther Grey Is you wish to find, In order to help you. Tell me more about her the next time you write, and be sure to send your name also. Dear Miss Brooks: May I ask a question that Is troubl-ing me very much? (1) I have been going with a girl for over a year. I am 23 and she Is 20. She Is a very nice girl In every way, only she Is In-clined to be slouchy. ffhe never looks well-dress- In anything, and at their home everything Inside and out Is topsy-t-urvy. My mother and sisters were always neat and kept a clean house. Do you think I could be happy with a wife of that kind? I have Joked her some-times on their living conditions, and she seems to think they were O. K. (2) In order for one to be a stenog-rapher Is It necessary to understand shorthnnd? PUZZLED. Tarowan. Utah. (1) This would be a hard question for me to decide for you. It Is possible, perhaps, that the lovableness of her character and disposition would mnke the conditions you mention bearable, hut I am rather Inclined to think that so long as you have not been accus-tomed to these conditions, they would he a constant Irritation to you In your own home and might be the cnuse of serious trouble between you. The very fact that It Is a source of annoyance to you now, when you are perhaps ss blind to her shortcomings as you will ever be, does not argue well for your future happiness with her. You are the only one, however, who can tell Just how much of this manner of living you could endure without becoming Irrit-able about It. and you could not hope that she would he any different In her own home,. (2) To be a stenographer It Is necessary to know shorthand. It Is sometimes possible to get a position where the use of the typewriter Is all that Is required, but these are com-paratively few. Dear Friend: We have been Intereated In your cor-ner, "Just Between You and Me." and would thank you very much If you would answer a few questions for us (1) Would It be proper to take a girl home from a dance If you did not take her there? (2) ttow Inte should a con-pi- e stay up at night? (.1) What Is the proper ere for hovs to go out with girls? (4) What sre some of the lat-est dnnc pieces? Wishing you much success In vour work, we remain. DOODLE Bt'O AND ST'IDFR. Washington. Utah (1) No, this Is not proper. If you sre old enough to attend a dance, you should take a partner and the girls should not go without an escort. (2) Mv dear bovs. this depends entirely upon conditions and the persons, but y or eleven Is as late as any voung person should be up. Ct) Girls should not go with hovs under sixteen years of age, and hoys should be that old at least (4) Among the late dsnee music Is "Runnln Wild."

FARM BLOC IS VICTORIOUS Ship 8ubsldy Measure Killed Strang Situation Created by Harding' World Court Proposal Gar man Nationalists Prepar-ing to Fight French-De- ath of W. Bourk ' Cockran. By EDWARD W. PICKARD O O aside all partisan, j do you and your I really think of j InUTTINQ of the 81xty I during it last JI WITH the passage of the rural bill the last bcshIoo of the Sixty-sevent- h congress practi-cally cloned Its business, and when final adjournment came thnt measure stood out as the one bljr accomplish-ment of the lawmakers during the en-tire session. Of course, the uxunl sup-ply bills bad been put through, und one of them, for the army, unfurtunntely carried the usual pork feuture for riv-ers and harbors, despite the efforts of the administration. Congress this time has done little which It ran point to with pride, and this Is mild without partisanship for both parties are to blame. The farm bloc, backed by Secretaries Hoover and Wallace, had Its wuy In the matter of farm credits legislation, for the Cupper bill as passed Included ths Important features of the Lenroot-jLadorso- n bill which Secretary Mellon and many members of the house bank-ing and currency committee did not like. One amendment adopted by the house extends the life of the War Finance corporation until Jnnunry 31, 1024. During the debate on the meas-ure Representative Burton of Ohio de-nounced the plan for the formntlon of Intermediate credit bnnks attached to ih federal land banks Involving the fise of $00,000,000 1" government funds as provided In the Lenroot-Anderso- n part of the composite bill. Too much borrowing and too much credit had been one of the causes of the difficu-lties of the fanner, he asserted. He said he spoke from experience as a banker during the wnr period. 9 HAUDINU'S pet, the PUESIDKXT bill, went to its death Wednesday neonlIng to schedule. The senate voted against recommitting It, put carried the motion of Senator Lndd of North Ihikota to proceed with the consideration of the house fllled-mil- k bill, which effectually disposed of the subsidy measure. Senator Curuwny of Arkansas introduced a bill which pro-vides that the shipping board shall turn over to states and municipalities any ships which the latter are willing to operate, with a view to developing trade from particular ports, lie said he believed that the shipping board planned to punish senators who have been hostile to the subsidy bill by withdrawing ships from trHilo routes In which thuy are especially Inter-ested. JNTKHKST was added to the of the last week of con-gress by the development attending the President's attempt to have the United States become a member of the nt court of International Justice organized under the nus'lees of the League of Nations. In n message ask-- 1 lng for senate authority to net, the President pointed out that the I'nlted States had bad a conspicuous part In the original conception of the court, and added that "our deliberate public opinion of today is overwhelmingly In fuvor of our full participation, and the attending obligations of Immediately the old bum--h (,f In the senate declared their opposition to the plan, threatening a filibuster. Senator Lodge summoned the foreign relations committee to con-sider It, and the committee Instead of voting addressed to the President a series of questions framed by Mr. Borah. These were embodied In this resolution: "That the President be requested to advise the committee whether he fa-vors an agreement obligating all pow-ers, or governments, who are signers of the protocol creating the court, to sufv mlt all questions about which there Is a dispute and which cannot be settled by diplomatic efforts, relative to: "(a) The interpretation of treaties. "(b) Any question of International law. "(c) The existence of any fact which, if established, would constitute a breach of an international obligation. "(d) The nature or extent of repar-ation to be made for the breach of an International obligation. "Secondly, If the President favors such an agreement, does he deem it advisable to communicate with the other powers to ascertain whether they are willing to obligate themselves as aforesaid? Or are they to Insist that such questions shall only be submitted In case both, or all, parties Interested agree to the submission after the con-troversy arises?" Thereupon It was announced at the White House thnt the administration would wait until the next congress met before pressing for action on the President's request. The Democrats, meanwhile, were In high glee over the affair and hastened to tnke all political advantage of It. T?fey they would endeavor to force a vote on tha mutter before adjourn-ment to order to put the senators on record. AT THIS writing It seems probable that the senate will refuse to con-firm several appointments made by the President, the most Important being that of James O. McNary to be con-troller of the currency. There was no apparent opposition to the aptoInt-men- t of Mondcll of Wyoming to be a member of the war finance corporation and that of Towner of Iowa to be gov-ernor of Porto KIco. Among other ap-pointments of the week by the Presi-dent were those of Prig. Gen. Frank T. Illnes as director of the veterans' bu-reau and Klehard M. Tobln of San Francisco as minister to the Nether-lands. Mr. Harding fn Tuesday made the expected changes In his cabinet. Post-must- er General Work was made secre-tar- y of the Interior to succeed Mr. Fall, and was himself succeeded by Hurry S. New of Indiana. These nom-inations the senate promptly con-tinue d. CHANCELLOR CUNO of Germany between the Devil and the deep sea. On one side the Socialists are pressing him to check forcible opisisltlon to the French In the Hubr nud to do all in his power to Induce the French to withdraw, fouling that long continued occupa-tion will lead to another European war. On the other side the Nation-alists, now Including the Monarchists, are not only demanding that the oppo-sition continue, but are organizing the nucleus of a national army and are stirring tip all kinds of trouble for the French In the Ituhr. Ouno told hi cabinet thnt if Germany let up In her resistance to the French there prob-ably would be a revolution and that it was Impossible to start overtures for a settlement now. It wns believed In I'.erlln that the government wus seri-ously considering the Idea of asking the United States to intervene. There Is no doubt that the Nation-alists, headed by Ludendorf ami backed by von Hlndenhurg. are creating a dan-gerous situation. The field marshal Is quoted as having said to a meeting of tbe Hanover Agricultural league: "We will never forget that we are all Ger-mans and must do our duty, and that, if necessary, we will fight even until the last Hag Is torn to ple. es and the last swol'd blade shuttered. It Is bet-ter to perish In lienor than to live in disgrace." prince Wllhelm Frledrlch von Llppe wus arrested In Dusseblorf by the French who said they found on him document showing thnt he Is a mem-- ; her of a secret organisation In the! Huhr uhi.M! mission Is to foment trouble with the forces of occupation.' In the process of dlsnrwiiig the green, police the French have deported larg numbers of them and have placed many of the officers under arrest., They met with the stubbornest opposition In lioclium. Both the French and tba Belgians have seized large sums of German money In the occupied region on the ground that It was sent to help In the fomenting of trouble. General Degoutte announced measures for col-lecting the 40 per cent tax on Ruhr coal and said refusal to meet this obli-gation would result In the court mar-tial of the offenders and the seizure of coal at the mines. Shipment of coal to Holland and Switzerland art not subject to the assessment POLAND and Lithuania agreed m a In their squabble over the neutral Bone, but it was not very strictly observed during the week. Th Poles claim to be trying to avoid any clashes and assert that German officers are leading their opponents. There are reports that the Germans In East Prussia are arming to retake Memel, and other reports that the Poles are planning to seize East Prussia. The chances for serious trouble In that region are still excellent. ELLIOTT WADSWOItTH Is In Paris American treasury trying to collect the $250,000,000 due th United States for the upkeep of our army on the Ithlne, and reparations commissioners of the allies, as finan-cial experts, are examining the ques-tion. Iteally there doesn't seem much to examine, for It was agreed after the armistice that Germany should pay the expenses of the forces of occupa-tion before anything else in the way of reparations, and the allies already have collected these costs. CZECHOSLOVAKIA comes forward of the conti-nental European nations to plan defi-nitely for the payment of its war debt to the United States. In its budget for 1923 Is an item of nenrly $4.000,. 000 to apply on thut debt, which is e timoted at about $100,000,000. Foreign Minister Penes says a commission will come to Washington soon for the pur-pose of settling discrepancies, and that his country hopes to get as good terms as ony allied debtor to America. That Finland also Intends to pay the United States Is shown by the fact that Dr. Axel Leonard, the Finnish minister In Washington, hns begun pre-liminary conversations with Secretary of the Treasury Mellon on the matter of refunding Finland's debt, which amounts to more thnn $3,000,000, with $1,150,000 of accrued interest BY AN order of the federal railroad board Issued Wednesday, wage Increases of two cents an hour were awarded to (55,000 railway freight handlers and laborers and the eight-hou- r day wns restored to all of th 821,000 members of the Brotherhood of Hallway and Steamship Clerks, Freight Handlers, Express and Station Em-ployees. The decision disposed of th hist of a batch of wage cases that had been pending for months, anil follows one of neveral weeks ago. In which the board restored the eight-ho-day to 15,000 railway signalmen. The wage Increase amounts to half of the decrease In pay ordered by th board last J.ily. GOVEUNOU BLAINE of Wisconsin state's National Guard from being abolished, sending to ths legislature a special message praising the efficiency of the organization and urging its continuance at a strength to meet national requirements. It Is Interesting to note that while Senator La Follette declared ills opposition t the bill abolishing the guard, Mrs. a Follette announced that she favored the measure.
