large water pipe in the SALISBURY

The authorities would not allow the

When her own friends are invited 10
the house II should not mean that the
parents are banished. In the habit OF
Young America of putting the old
people" TO one side. when girls and
boys are met socially may be found
the cause of many of the defects we
lament in the girl of the period.
For after all. the young girl, no mat
ter how charming she may be, is an
untried creature. She Is full or lie
and vigor and shows these I'm an over
flow of animal spirits that manifests
itself in strange fashions. The youth
full spirits are all well enough In their
way and We would not have her with
out them. But they must be directed
and checked when they threaten to
carry her too far.
The average young girl is too self
absorbed TO grasp the idea that there
are other points of view besides her
own. She knows what her impulses
incline her to do and she does not stop
to consider how her actions impress
those about her. II she dwelt too
much upon this consideration II might
have a tendency to make her self con-
scious. but little thought Of herself
thing. When she has been taught from
early childhood to be unselfish and to
seek the comfort of others rather than
her own enjoyment, pure and simple.
she is pretty sure to be womanly and
gentle.
Yet this does not mean that she
may not be a breezy, out-doors little
somebody. In fact, we would not like
her If she We're not rather up and
coming" The American girl is not
prone to be lacking in go" and
sparkle Her recent development "a
long athletic lines has improved her
physically and mentally as well. If
to her splendid bodily health and her
eager mind she adds the gentleness
and thouehtfulness for others which
make her lovable, there will be no one
to cast even the shadow of criticism
on the girl of the period
