BETTY DEAR BETTY: I don't know of any comic strips devoted to skiing although this would seem to be a fertile field You might write to Sun Valley the Idaho resort of skiiers for suggestions or watch the books of assorted comics that are sold on 1 THE QUICKER WE WIN! By Betty Bly DEAR MISS BLY: I am in love with a soldier and would like your advice on the matter He has been dating me for over a year now and seems to be very much in love with me He asked me to 'marry him before he left for camp and I refused He has now asked me again He wants to marry on the first furlough he has My difficulty is that he is still writing to the girl he was dating before meeting me He writes me regularly too He sent me a nice Christmas present but I heard that he also sent one to the other girl Do you believe he really loves me or just likes to hear from almost anyone because he is so lonesome? He says the other girl doesn't mean a thing to him I love him and want to marry him but I wonder if he loves me and no one else What shall I do? JANE DEAR JANE: As long as you refused his offer of marriage there is no reason why he should not write to other girls and distribute Christmas presents if he chooses You have no exclusive claim on his loyalty unless you are engaged to him But since you love him and he has given the best proof that he loves you by asking you to marry him why you accept his proposal?
