Dear Mrs. Thompson,
- Is it proper for the girl to
make date with a boy?
ca When you see you stand in
better with girl than another fellow,
what's a good way to get rid of him
CD Is it nice and o. *. to kiss a
girl goodbye or good night when she
doesn't object?
(4) What do you think of girl
that will have the fellow to whom
she's engaged to go and entertain an
other boy In another room?
go Is my writing good? Do you
think I'd make real good penman?
Yours truly,
SMOKEY JOE"
ID ! think the making of dates
should be left to the man.
CD Be more attentive to the girl,
and perhaps she will get rid of him
herself.
go 1t is neither nice nor honorable
to kiss a girl, unless you are engaged
to her.
(4) She might do so merely to make
her f1ance jealous.
CD Yes you write an excellent
hand-a little too flourishy.
Pensacola, Fla.
Dear Mrs. Thompson:
"a / am engaged to a young man
who resides in another town, and have
been going with another fellow with
out his knowledge. Should I tell him
before the wedding or keep it a secret?
f2) Will q brown dress with shoes
and hat to correspond be suitable for
a morning wedding? go What would
be a nice present for ones bridesmaid
who is also a very dear friend? (G
How should a letter be signed when
addressed to ones future motherin
Law? (5) Is it proper for an en-
gagged girl to give her picture to a
young man other than her betrothed,
GLORY.
Cd I should certainly tell him.
Better not begin your married life
with deceit. (2) Very suitable. 90
Any pretty trinket If she is a dear
friend you can probably judge best
what she would like, by recalling some
expression of preference. (4) 1t would
depend entirely on the degree of in
timacy. Affectionately yours, sincerely
yours, cordially yours or faithfully
yours are all accepted forms. If you
know and love her. you might use
something more intimate. Sign your
full name. go No. I should not think
you would wish to give your picture
to any other man, if you love your
betrothed.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: ! am a young
lad of Is years; weigh 126 lbs and
nicely built: am just crazy to go on
the stage as a pugilist: am practicing
to
cate with someone on the subject. And
also please give me some pointers as
leading to pugilistic strength. VIII
highly appreciate it. Answer to
PUGILIST.
Please excuse bad writing.
"a There is only one way to be-
come a pugilist and that is first to
become strong man. To do this you
must take care of your health and
practice athletics. I think probably
by the time you are twenty -one you
will have a higher ambition than this
do not number any pugilists among
my acquaintance and the only ad-
vice I can give you is to take care OF
yourself. don't spend the years be-
fore you in dissipation and by the
time YOU are twentyone you will be
real man if you are not a real pugi-
list. For your own sake I hope you
won't be the latter.
Bagdad, Fla, Oct Is. 1912.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am Is yrs

these columns, the presents a girl is
most apt to appreciate are flowers
