TOUNG MEN AND GIRLS TOLD T0 AVOID LONG ENGAGEMENT

It Is Regarded As One Of The Most Dangerous Experiences

In these war times, when so litany of the boys who fir? E01"! t0 the ont are ltskn ‘ills to ivziit for them, the question ot the lotig engage- tent liectitnes p iititmt to both men and women. Much, of course. is t be said on boxh 52th‘: of the SUDJOCl.

And there is the realistic angle that makes them both know that at their time of life they we in a state of flux. when their emotions and ' .ii$'.{‘.\‘ are utistlible, and that they are mak- oiys they may not be able to keep.

So the more prudent of them wt m.- itisi how ivise it is to gamble on a fut- hat is so tinccrtaln.

On the other hand, if the engaged couple see each other continually, reek after week and year after year, they wear oil’ the bloom of romance ecatise romance ls an airy-fairy thing made of dreams that will not en- tire being hacked about.

But discriminating people don't rue such pretentious wordl. They lay, simply, “GO TO BED" and "LIVING." To them an affected lpeaker appear: ill-poised, of poor background.

The oddest part of ft fl, people who "converse" rather than "talk" are the very ones who make crude errors like "borroived off" for "bor- rowed from" and "leave go" for "let go."

While avoiding such obvious slang ls "guy," they still give themselves away with "soup-and-flsh" for "formal dress," and "gadget" for—- almost everything.
