SHOULD GIRLS ASK LETTERS?
DEAR q. G. FRfESos; received a letter some
time ago from "a reader Of the C. g. columns want
ing TO know what thought Of young girls asking
for gentlemen correspondents. I will quote part
OF tho letter: " know from my personal OBJ
servatton OF a haifdozon g. g. girls who
spending regularly with old married man
You would be surprised were TO uame them mud
they would BLUSH with shame, for some OF them
stand very nigh In the estimation OF the &. C.'s
As you are contributor, wish you would suggest
this question for debate
Now. girls, what do yon think about this? Let
us hear what the q. G. boys think uf girls who do
it, For my part, have never thought IL proper
for young lady To ask for gentlemen correspond
ents- consider " the RentiemAu's place to ask to
correspond, aud If he oaresto hear from you lie will
ask 10 do so.
II should ask a gentleman TO correspond I
should expect him to tiinR that could not get one
near home, and thai there must be something
wrong. Girls, find out II II Is you who ate CORE
Eponding with this " old married man" Yours,
