CLARA TO LOUISE

My dear Louise. Tread your
last letter with a great deal Of
care and gave what you said
much consideration. The house
hold is very much exercised over
what you have said relative to dis
cuasing the points suggested III
your last letter.
I met Mrs. r. II Terrell a few
evenings ago and l think she is one
of the most amiab!e young ladies
have ever met The Beth
ell Literary under her manage
ment has been very successful.
The papers that have been discuss
ed during the winter and spring
seasons were good. The dlgnitied
president has been courteous to
all who have discussed these pa
pers and had occasions to address
the chair.

turned from abroad.
think some of the girls in the
household are too foolish to live.
One half Of the young men who
come to the city have no respect for
our young girls. l am saying what
[ know. Our girls are too easily
flattered and allow too uch fam,l-
arity on the part of these young
men the moment they are made
known to them. The first ques-
tlon a stranger ask, when he
meets one OF our girls is, is she

is a lady, he does not bother
much with her. If all our girls
could ha reoarded as ladies our
society would not be 80 hbeld by
these upstairs. I have been ln-
formed that young man can't
call on girl unless she hints
marriage to hlm. don't believe
that. If there were more 1epen
dence among our girls I know
they would be more respected.
They seem to be too anxious to
seek the company ofstrangers and

the girls refuse to respect them
selves certainly the men will not
respect them. [ admire a noble
