Dear Mrs. Ellttbury: I have a girl, friend of 17, end I um 25, and have al- ways known her. I never thought any- thing about her except frf a child un til recently. She Is the younger slHler of a pal of nili.e. she has grown up Into a rial goud looking young ltuly, and 1 like lu'r very much, and would like to take lier around. Her fulka are very strict with her. and I don't know whether I should speak to her folks or to her first about taking her some place. Which should I do, and would they think it funny if I went with her?. Is uho too young? MAItTIN. MARTIN: I think It would be very nice If you went with her, and I am sure her parents would not object un less on the grounds that she is too young to go with anyone. If you are a frequent, visitor at their, house, you might ask her sometimes In the pres ence of her mother If she would" car to go someplace, such as a show, and then ask her mother If she minds If you go.. Or you could ask the girl her self, and let her ask her mother. Hero On llii-l T. 0. Thuemler of (irants I'ass Is spending several days In this city at tending to various business mutters.

TUBBY VAA-A-A HELLO TATHtAr HtLLO FAT H END NA-VA-VA J I i V 'A WIFE'S STORY' ' By JANE PHELPS CIMITKIt MV It was 12 o'clock when Joan came In. I bud no Idea It va so late, and started to reprimand her, but the slKht of her glowing face, her Intent eyes fixed upon me halted the words on my lips. "Oh Mother! I'm so triad your'e up. I want to talk to you," she said In an eager voice as she took off her hat. "May I auk some of the boys and girls down for a week end? fad won't be home, and If Laura and I sleep In your room we'll have places for them all." "I think we might arrange It. How many do you want to ask?" 1 re plied, making mental note of our ac commodations. "Only three boys and two girls. That will make six of us. The girls can have our room, the boys the guest room. . We can go out in me boa), play tennis, and have a really nice tune. Ana i m in oeoi to uiem all." I "We can manage that number very nicely." I returned. -It would i be a relief to have the house full of 1 young folks, keep me from thinking of Logan, what he had said and done. Then, too, I was glad to give ! Joan pleamire, innocent pleasure. I I wag very anxious over her. She was Ho variable, full of life at times, then ' down In the depths. This moodiness had been very apparent of late and her spells of depression lasted long- er. So, late as It was, I discussed what we would do to entertain her young guests, even the food we would give them. Joan was all ani mation, and when we finally parted she threw her arms around my neck and said: "No had girl ever had such a good mother." Her unwonted caress brought the tears to my eyes. Like her father. Joan was chary about showing affec tion. And I lay long awake planning how I could make her week end par ty a real success. Saturday morning brought her five guests, Clem Sanders one of them. I had met the others, all but one of the girls, a delicate, aristocratic looking eirl. Madge Dearlng, who seemed to want to keep Clem waiting unon her. The 'day passed off delightfully., They played tennis In the morning, went In swimming before luncneon and In the afternoon went on the i YEAR S BEST FIGHT TOF their clnsses.

Sunday morning dawned bright and beautiful. The young people arose lute, and after breakfast wan dered about either singly or in groups until time to take their swim'. A light luncheon, then they again went out for a row, while Laura and I. assisted by my maid, prepared the dinner, and tidied up the house. I hud noted with disquietude that Joan seemed quiet, that her gayety of the day previous had left her. But I was so busy I hud no time to look for the cause. After they came In from their row on the water they dawdled about, playing all the new records, and chatting together until dinner time. It was a warm night and ufter dinner they went out In to thi vnrri I wnnted to sneak to Joan and, after a bit, went In search of her. I saw her disappear behind the summer house, where someone was sitting, and followed. Aa I passed the little vine covered sum mer house I heard Joan's name pok en, and recognized the voice as Madge Dearlng's. "1 on't believe you Clem. I think you are In love with her," she said. "I know she is with you. She was as glum as an oyftor because you talk ed to me in the boat. "Don't be a goose. Madge. You know well enough I'm not serious , with Joan. No fellow could be." I I was about to move away but i Clem's last words halted me.. I de- i splsed a listener, but felt that I had the right to know what was said of Joan. "Everyone thinks you are going to marry her," Madge said in a petu- lant tone. "Marry a girl who drinks, and whose father Is a common bootleg ger? I guess not!" 1 wanted to cry out. to force the bpy to retract the words he had ut-, tcred, but was unable to move or speak. After a moment I saw Joan again. She was walking away from the summer house. Had she too heard?

Abroad, Carpentier staged a come-back, knocking out Joej Beckett, or rJnglnnu, in one round, and plana to visit thld country again in quest of light heavyweight honors early In 1924. No title flgnt eclipsed the record at tendance of 93,000 and gale recipts of $1,600,000 set In the Derapsey-Car-pentier spectacle of 1921 at Boyle's Thirty Acres, but on the whole the 1923 season surpassed all previous years in total financial return. A new high mark for paid attendance was es tablished by the Dempsey-Flrpo bat tle, for which 82.000 paid $1,250,000, while a lightweight championship re cord was set when 60,000 paid approxi mately $400,000 to see the Tendler Leonard fight. , ..' Two of the largest gatherings of the season attended non-championship affrays. The Firpo-Willard bat tle at Bovle's Thirtv Acres ettracted more Tnan 90,000 but the paid figures! were only 75,000. The heavyweight show for the benefit of the New York milk fund, in which Willard and Firpo too.t part, drew nearly 70,000 to the Yankee Stadium. Each attracted "gates" of about $400,000. In contrast to these profitable ven tures was the financial debacle at tending the Dempsey-Gibons fight at Shelby, where heavy losses were sus tained because of a $300,000 guarantee made to the champion. o On Ikuslness A.
