change rings? Don't you think that
Wnen a girl has said she will marry a
man, he ought to get her n ring" All
the engaged girls l know have rings
and l haven't got anything to SHOW
that l an~t-engaged.
lriossie.
An engagement ring is not necessary.
.nough customary. You may be very
safely engaged without 4 ring. pro-
v1ded YOU have announced the en-
gagenlent with the consent of YOUR par
entS.
Sometimes an engaged couple ex-
change rings. 1t is a pretty custom,
out not generally INDUCED i'm i'm this
country.
An engagement ring is just a pref
ty token of love. entirely voluntary ON
NJ part of the man. Some girls do
NOT care for "a ring. and prefer some
other gift. Possibly your young MAJ
has o thought of it yet. and per-
maps he cannot afford to get you AS
nice a gift now as ne would like.
You are probably owed just as much
as those other girls who nave rings
to show. Don't let that worry you.
Flossie. IL you've got a good mar hold
onto him.. ring or no ring.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: First I want
to say that | am Il decent, respectable
man. i earn Il good salary N have
no bad habits and nobody can say a
word against my character. do not
think any good. respectable girl would
need to be ashamed to me
to her family and be seen in my com-
pany.
Well. here is the trouble that needs
our advice.
Some time ago l met q young lady
who attracted me very much. She
IL employed near the office where !
work.
l have often since met the young
lady. but every time l asked to call
at her home she had some excuse for
my not calling. Since We have be-
come better acquainted. and l pressed
her for a good reason why she did
not want me to call, She said she did
not want her mother to know any
thing about me. That stumped me, 1
tell you.
o what do you suppose is wrong?
I am sure she is a good girl. and 1
am pretty much in o with her. Ii
she is all right, ] want to marry her.
doesn't want her mother to II any
thing about me, n doesn't want me
to visit her at home"
II ! We're YOU and l was sure the
young lady was good and lovable. !
would trust her.
The girl %pribably has q very good
reason which you would respect. if you
knew it. Her home may be Very poor,
or her mother very unpleasant. Some
mothers. you know. will not permit
their daughters to III masculine cor
pany. especially If the daughter is earn
ing a salary which she contributes to
the home and which would be stopped
il the daughter married.
Get we'll enough acquainted with the
girl tt ask her what the real trouble
is. Find out who her friends and rela-
i've are. If you can. Study her char
acter, and If you are satisfied from
what she does that She is worth a
good mans love. tell her you love her
want her for your wife.
Dear Mrs. Thompson-How should 1
treat my pals girl friend who likes to
"shoot 1t into me- about other girls / go
with. yet when I resent it by shooting it
back She gets sor~e-generally for the rest
of the evening: T believe she is Just as
tickle as I am and the other girls are of
good character. I go with her chum a
good DEAL, consequently we are together
quite a bit. Jack Tickle.
She'll stop it if you just laugh at her
and change the conversation or wander
off to talk to somebody else Zach time.
1t never pay to talk back to a girl.
Dear Mrs. Tholnpson-m I am a girl of
10. and no taller than some girls of IA and

coming? 80 Is anyone who throws in
sulting remarks "a true friend? Should 1
ignore them or treat her the same way?
~ j think il outrageous for young girls
and boys to hang out around nickel
shows. Am I right G) Is 1t ladylike for
girls to use expressions such az You get
my goat" etc.h () / nave many sensible
boy friends but wouldn't think Of keeping
