Cynthia Grey's


Il al have been reading your pa
per for a long time and always
thought that love was nothing.
/ Now, Miss Grey, love a young
man and ! think he likes me. I
have TO take tho paper 10 them ev-
cry evening. for we take II to
gether. They always ask me In.
10 Il right 20 90 In or not3 ! never
used TO 90 In, but now ! do. I
think HIS father likes me for he
comes over quite often and takes
mo auto and buggy riding. They
have n buggy OF their own. and he
talks 20 mo about tho boy; how
good he Ia and how fine, and that
the boy 10 going 20 get married, but
he ls 80 bashful he won't have any
thing 10 do with any girl.
Now. Miss Grey, no stands out
sldo and says a few words. How
can we get acquainted I don't
want 10 be too quick In speaking
first. or Ia IL my place 20 stop and
talk 20 hlm7 N he should walk
home with me In the daytime,
would II be my place 20 gay,
Wont you come ln7" or not7

do not 90 many places and am
bashful. know he doesn't 90
with anybody, and everybody
leases me about him. ! don't kno"
who started II. but anyway II
wouldn't have gotten out II he
hadn't said something to some boys
that he likes me.
Don't throw this letter In the
basket. for am waiting an an
swer.

PUZZLED GIRL.
Il A-Don't allow your head TO be
| turned by a little ats ption. You
/ do not speak OF the boys mother.
/ or OF your own Cannot you con
suit your mother7
This silly teasing is disgusting.
| should say that neither you nor
the boy would feel 30 bashful had
not others put silly notions into
/ your heads.
Il wouldn't advise you 20 visit,
or make advances 90 the boy I'M
der the circumstances
Don't let other people do your
matchmaking. BE good friends
with the boys. but leave out all
foollshness until you hayc few
opinions OF your own. and don't fall
in love with tho first boy you think
or people make you think-is in
love with you. God gave you a
mind. Look to Him TO learn how
10 use Il. and do nothing hastily.
o.--i met a nice young lady AZ n
dance last Tuesday night, May the
18th. and I certainly do think an
awful lot OF her. She seems 20 be
a perfect lady. asked TO take her
home. but she refused me. II
seems can't forget her. She has
pretty blue eyes and 10 . beautiful
dancer.
When told her abe was q good
dancer abe started 70 Joke with
me. She said her home 10 In the
East. or course. ! don't know.
Maybe Il 10, but she certainly looks
good 20 me.
Now, dear Miss Grey. what
would you do II you were met
Would you ask her to 90 out again 7
i saw her downtown last Sunday
II afternoon, but she was with two
other girls. and Just spoke 10 her.
but do wish ! would meet her
again.
Hoping TO zee an answer soon.
II LONELY.
All you could see the correc.
lions I made In your spelling be-
fore your letetr could be published. I
think you would buy n spcller. and
get to work and learn 10 spell cor
rectly. nj least the commonest
words.
Blue eyes and good dancing are
not the requisites to n happy life
Steady, my boy. steady. Don't
mako a goose OF yourself by fail.
ing In love with blue eyes and MIN
bic feet. Cultivate your reasoning
and good sense md look for those
qualities in others.
The girl has probably gotten
tired OF being told she Is a good
dancer. Sensible girls do get
tirod--very tired-of personal al
fusion.
