Again the Kiss Question.

Dear Miss Libbey: ! wish to ask your
esteemed advice on question which, while not
exactly a question of hearts, is nevertheless
closely allied thereto. Accordingly, l am
taking the liberty of addressing this letter
to you l am young man past II, and have
quite a number of charming girl friends
among whom | try to distribute equally what
favors ! am able to extend to them. The
question desire to ask is this: Is it proper
for a young man not engaged to kiss his girl
friends upon leaving them after returning
from dances. parties, theaters, etc? l have
always maintained that it is not, and have,
therefore, never permitted myself such lber-
ties. However, I have on various occasions,
when the subject was incidentally discussed
been the object of laughter on the part of my
boy friends, who inform me that / have a
very mistaken idea Ed"
No; certainly not, Ed. You have exactly
the right idea. | am absolutely opposed to
the besfowai of these favors by my girl
friends. and condemn men who take one Of

Selfshness is often the reason for mar

A well known broker and man about town
committed suicide in New York a short time
ago. He was thought by most people to
be bachelor. But the tragedy revealed
the fact that he had wife and three chill

he met woman with whom he fell in love.
He was honorable enough to tell the woman

refused to marry him.

THEY'RE anxious TO Marry.

Dear Miss Libbey: We are two girls,
age II and 90 and have been trying for a
long time to get married, but the boys don't
like us very much. We are said to be good
looking girls and are real anxious to marry
before Christmas. We have sisters that
have sweethearts often and we want you to
tell us why the boys don't like u.s. And do
you think there is any harm in kissing the
boys? We always kiss them when they take
us to the parties, and do you reckon that is
why we haven't any beaux, it almost
scares some of them to death?. We have
been thinking of advertising ourselves Do
you think it would be proper for us to do so?
We are anxiously waiting for your advice on
this matter. RUBY AND PEARL"
The fact that you are trying to get married
probably explains the reason why you are so
unpopular. Men like to do bit of the pur-
suing in the matrimonial game themselves,
and il they are chased much the poor dears

run for their lives. You have cheapened
yourselves so much by promiscuous kissing
that no man worth while would want you.

to object to their actions for fear that they

Theta Kappa Alphas. We object to our call

language, and continually staging such bizarre
stunts as dancing the bearcat and thus bring

1t is disagreeable habit that men have of
smoking anywhere they please. l think the
better thing to do would be to let these fell
lows go. They evidently are undesirable, and
even though they are nationally known you
can gain nothing but disrespect from being

L Is no uncommon thing for married men i
TO pose as bachelors. And various are
the reasons for the pseudo achelor keep
ing his marriage secret.
The frst reason is that the unattached
man has the chance of better sime lie
il entertained more than the married man.
He is invited to more social functions. lie
is made the object of much more feminine
attention.
A presentable man OF a bright and anna
BILE disposition Is more acceptable to host
ess when he is bachelor than when he joins
the ranks of the benedicks.
Unmarried men are popular with women
of all ages, from the debutante Of 1S to the
charming hostess of CO. Because he is ap-
parently free from home and family ties he
becomes a sort of public property.
The reasons why she prefers to entertain
bachelors were given by New York social
leader as follows:
'They are more convenient friends, as
they do not mind being asked at moments
notice to take a vacant place at dinner
party.
' 1t is oftentimes more convenient to in
vie single man than it is to invite a n,en
and his wife.
A single man in house party can be
more attentive to the wants of women than
Il married man.
Because one wonders how long they viii
remain single and what their wives will
be like should they marry.
And, last and happiest reason, because
one can be friendly with bachelor without
annoying another woman
Married " Bachelor Usually Selfish
Women, whether married or single, pre-
FER to have dealings with bachelor-young
or old. They prefer TO be treated by the
bachelor doctor. They like to discuss hats
with the nice bachelor millner. The mid
die aged but ever young looking bachelor
lawyer is the one to whom they prefer to
confde their legal difficulties.
And the bachelor matinee idol! They
love him because he is a bachelor. When
bachelor matinee idol becomes bene-
dick he sacrifices one-haf of the box Office
receipts and more than so per cent Of his
popularity.
