1.-Wil it be proper for me to

met only once at the home of a

2.-Will it be proper to send
Christmas postcards to boys or
girls whom / have only met once?
3.-How can a direct slight be
met, such as not receiving an an
swer when having said good morn
ing to an acquaintance in passing
on the street? Should one speak
to them the next time one sees
them or ignore them?
DOUBTFUL HELEN.
AT 1 and 2.-Yes.
3.-It might have peen mis-
take. Ones acquaintance should
always be given the benefit of a
doubt under such circumstances.
One should greet them in the usu-
al way the next time of meeting
If they still persist in their rude
ness, no further effort is neces-
sary. The sighted one can go on
her way secure in the conscious
ness that she has been courteous
and dignified. Her feelings will
be hurt, perhaps, but she must
remember that the friendship OF
those who are guilty of such lilbred
actions is not to be desired.
Dear Miss Grey: I know four
girls and they all seem to want to
go with me. When I go with one
the others get Jealous. l like to
be friendly with them all. What
would you advise me to do ]
like one quite Well.-Tanglefoot.
A.-Why not Ego with the one
you prefer. Then the Others
would probably cease their unwel-
come CD attentions. Try it.

ginning,
Every morn is the world made

You who are weary of sorrow and

Here is a beautiful hope for you
A hope for me and a hope for
