ELIZABETH H.

ANSWE: I think it is sheer insanity to marry a man of whom you know nothing. Why. you wouldn't buy a dog without knowing its

edigree, yet you will think of taking amen for your husband and

e father of your children wiihout knowing whether he comes from a rupectable family or not and whether there is tainted blood in his reins.

As for marrying to keep from being an old maid, that is the silliest excuse that was ever given. 11f you think there is any discredit in being an old maid. you are aimpl fifty years behind the times in your mint of view. Women have l t all of that archaic nonsense behind

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am a 13-year-old girl. unloved and unwanted by my mother and father. I am thinking of running away Mm home. but the question u when shall r go?

UIIIIAPP!

ANSWER: Stick to your home. whatever it ia, until you are grown and wise enough to take care of yourself. Stick to it until you have lelrhed some trade by which you can support yourself. For a girl to run away from even the worst home is like jumping from the frying Dan lnto,the fire.

But you are no doubt mistaken in thinking that your father and mother do not love you and want you. 111st is a. neurotic fancy com- mon to adolescent girls. Doubtless you misjudge everything ihcy do. But lf you think they don't love you. why don't you try to win their affection by being loving and dutiful to them?

Clcify dined with her children at the‘ usual hour and Albert whet out, without pausing for farewells, while they were still at the table- After dinner Sis suggested I Home of paichesl... Robin brought out

the board and they settled down to play. then they were inter- rupted by the ring e1’ the door- bell.

Vesta was out. Robin went to the door.

Ciclly had barely time to wonder who on earth it could be - for n0 one ever called after dinner in Lakewood — when she heard a. man's voice, which at first she didn't recognize, say genially to Robin, ‘J-lello, young fella. Is your mother at home?"

"Y-yes." -aaicl Robin, and hesitant.

“Do you think abe would see me? I'm Avery Caldwell."

Ciclly jumped frcm her chair, displeased and disconcerted. Avery, of all men, to find her deserted.

"Hello. Are you alone?" It was perfectly obvious that his words referred to Albert. For Robin had followed him over the threshold and there was the game, set for four and interrupted, and Sis and

eyed, at the startling apparition of "Mr. Caldwell" in dinner clothes calling upon their mother, ap- parently unprovoked by any aosial necessity.

Advancing to meet her, he ex- tended his hand.

"Albert's gone out to’ dinner. Filling in _at the last mOment. You know my children?"

But they were already sidlirig toward the door.

"Yes. very pleasantly.” Avery nodded to them. Sis and Johi-i

both vanished and ran with Robin upstairs. Oicily tunied toward Avery,

wondering to what impulse she ‘owed this unexpected call, and found him smiling pleasantly, as he looked around the room. “Your house is so charming. I like this use of gold. And your gown is just right with it.‘ He seemed to appraise bcr as part of the decor. "Do you mind if I smoke?"

"Oh. please do. Cigarettes and on the table.’

He produced his own case and offered it to her. Then, moving nearer, struck his lighter to flame. They stood for an instant side by side on the heartbrug, ln one of those silences that can seem a trifle awkward.

Something m0!!! seemed de- manded by way of hospitality. “Would you like a highball?" "Very much. Wouldn't you?"

"I think I would,,rather. I'll have to go and get it. My maid has gone out."

“Oh, let me help you."

l-le followed her trough the dark dining room to the pantry and prowled in the ice box for ice cubes and White Rock, while she found whiskey and set glasses on a tray. Back in the living room, he chatted very pleasantly of harmless Lakewood zilssip.

Cicily sat sipping her bighball and listening. He was doing his beat, she could see, to entertdin her. But she couldn't reciprocate. Another little silence crept up surreptitiously on than.

He broke it surprisingly. "By the way, don't tell Gertrude that I came here tonight."

The name Jarred Oicily to the sharpest attention.

“I was going to dine there and dropped out this morning.”

so Albert's story had been as true as gospel. Ciclly unconscious- ly relaxed in her chair.

"I told her I had to meet a client frcm out of town. Albert's there, isn't he?"

The blunt question annoyed her. She hadn't expected it. It wasn't like Avery to be quite so crude. “Yes," she admitted.

"I thought she might ask him to go in my place, an so here I am. I always trust my hunches." She could only interpret those words in one way. He had come because Albert had gone, to put it briefly.

"I wanteed to talk with you. I want to talk seriously. About you and me."

“I wouldn't," she advised him. He held her glance on that, his eyes still smiling. "Not even about myself?" he asked with mock plaintivcness. "I want to, awfully." After a moment. "I don't know exactly what you think of me, Cicily." said Avery slowly, though clouding- his voice. “Not much, I suspect."

He abandoned that opening after an instant in which he might have been waiting to hegy 1m- reassure him, and began ggaln abruptly: "This will be a hard liucl; story. Maisie gave me a “w

He sensed her displeasure, if not her indifference. "I dare say it was reciprocal. I don't make any claim to have worn the white flower of a blameless life. But ahe really starred it." Hia eyes grew

She didn't, for an instant, catch rm context of these’ words. And then ahe. thought she did, with a twinge of alarm. ' "You've made frwo rnarrilges predestined to failure," slid Avery diapassion ‘ely.

She rose from her chair. "Avery —” ahe began, her tone tremulous

Iienal Routine At Dorchester

Oanada's penitentiary

(GIN-Towering grey walls bars of steel (lo not make.

over rock-breaking convicts is far from fact.

This writer learned that when he vwas granted the opportunity of touring the Maritime penit- entiary here, one of the seven in Canada. It is similar in moat re-

spects to other prisons under Canada's QlSDIZOOO-yearly penal system.

The walleduection of the prison covers only a miall area of the more than 1,000 acres which com- prise the Maritime penitentiary. The walls, standing on a jut- ting hill overlooking the sleepy village o1 Dorchester and the green grass and brown mud on the Tantramar marablandr, are patrolled by only four armed guards — one in g, tower at each corner. Another is on duty on a raised platform in the centre of the yard.

Guards Unarmed

Guards on duty inside the pris- on carry no aims. Only when ac- companying convicts into the flelda -- some more than a mile away and out of sight of the prison towers - do the guards wear sidearms.

Actually a Canadian prison to- day is comparable b; g small city, self-sufficient as far as facilities and manpower permits.

Here at Dorcbeater the rolling fields yield more than $20,000 worth of produce annually. Most is used in the prison kitchen where enormous quantities of stores are prepared each meal- time.

Scrambled eggs for breakfast for the 547 present inmates would require, for instance, '70 dozen eggs, 10 gallons of milk and three pounds of butter. Three cai- loads of flour are consumed each year. Working the fields and shops in gangs, the prisoners cut the expénse of the penitentiary to a point where each convict is fed at a cost of less than 50 cents a day. '

From the fields come nine months supply of vegetables, three months supply of meat and all the pork tonsumed. Poultry pro- duction is getting underway. Prison clothing —- everything except underwear - and shoes are manufactured in the shops. Discharge clothing and» officers‘ uniforms are made in other pen- itentiarles under a centralized manufacturing system recently in- augurated.

Some of the prisoners have even helped build t eir own cell block and others h e made the iron bars which guard their cell win- dows.

The varied shops turn out items ranging from furniture to shoes. Another repairs mail bags for, the post office department.

Own Water Supply

A central pumping control brings the water supply frcm. the reservoir and well on the prison property. Electric power is pur- chased from outside but an emer- gency generator is available in- side the prison on 15 minutes notice.

All offices and shops —- includ- ing the prison hospital _ are in- side the walls but the cell blocks are the most-imposing sight for prison visitors.

Built on landings, each cell is occupied by one man. Light comes through the one window and the small opening in the steel-sheathed wooden door.

A writing desk, chair, foldlnz wall bunk, toilet and wash basin complete the cell furnishings. There is one exception - the punishment cells.

Far alway from the regular cells, these contain no furniture except a water cup and. bucket. At night the prisoner being pun- ished is allowed his blankets and is given a wooden platform on which to sleep.

A reduced diet goes with the punishment ifiong with a no- talklng, singing or whistling em- barge.

Only in rare cases is the bread and water diet imposed.

Usually the prisoner gets bread and water, porridge and potatoes. No matter what diet is imposed. a time-limit is set after which the prisoner must undergo examina- tion and be given regular prison food for a set period.

ion that didn't suffer depreciation. But on the whole, I think, they're worth what we pay for them. So cut your losses and consolidate youn- gaina. You must have gained something, if only experience. But don't keep on throwing good money after bad. You'll only get in deeper."
