Do you know Los Angeles, city of searchlights and ballyhoo? City of barren dreums, where painted old teamen cling to is-lands of loneliness in cafeterias, where corroding old men lounge in Pershing Square, their empty eyes looking backward toward the. past? Los Angeles, Mecca of inland schoolteachers, where Iowa and Kansas, attired in dry bathing suits, dip their feet in salt water along beaches populated by sexless, bronzed natives in faded, disreputable swim suits. Los Angeles, where coirs are often discovered ruminating among nests of derricks, where hills are buttered with gold, breezes are salted with sea and religion is almost as profitable as fan dancing Charming hussy, Los Angeles!

A girl can better afford to go through life alone and support herself than be compelled to do that and support a husband The wise girl will not choose a man for his money. It takes more than money to make a man. No amount of cash can take the place of a loyal heart and a noble character. Choose a young man of good habits. God pity the young, woman who ties herself to a drunkard or a gambler or a libertine.

No one of these can be reformed by marrying him. A man said to his wife: "I was' a fool when I ftiarried you." She replied: "I know you were, but I thought you would get over it." You can't transform a beer barrel or a champagne bottle into, a man by marrying it. Choose a young man of ambition and industry.
