Dear Mrs. Thompson: ~ ! am a
girl fifteen years old, in the second
year of high school. Am / too far
advanced?
(2) have a girl friend who is for
ever making fun of me. For every
dress or anything l wear she has some
remarks. 1t always makes me feel bad.
What should say to her?
CD Is it all right for me to have
boy friends? When they pass me on
the street they tip their hats and
smile. Are. they just making fun, or
is that the way they all do? l speak
friendly to the ones l know. To the
others / pay no attention; but 1 do
like to have lots of friends.
"a How long should | wear my
dresses? / wear them to my ankles.
Is that too long?
90 What will make the face smooth
when it is rough and scaly? Also what
will whiten the hands and arms?
(6) Would you recommend the rice
complexion powder?
ROSE BUD.
ID About the average age.
q / should say in a good-natured
way: Let us avoid personal remarks;
it is not polite to make them" Be
sure you seem pleasant. 1 have found
that if girls are kind and sweet tenn
pered and are not making the most
of trifes, nor watching for sights,
that they are happier and make more
friends.
CD i am sure tipping the hat and
smiling is a gentlemanly way to
greet a friend. 1t is the girls privilege
to speak first, so boys who have not
met you have not right to speak first
Often when they are in the same
classes young people become acquaint
ed without an introduction.
"a About the right length.
(5) Your face is rough because the
oil glands are not working properly. A
good cold cream, well rubbed into the
skin after bathing the face in warm
water, should help it. Do this at
night.
90 Rice flour is good; face talcum
is not injurious.
Dear Mrs. thompson: ID Is it
proper for the gentleman to take hold
of his lady friends arm or vice versa?

CEEMS to me everybody's going
h< TO school nowadays, SAID a
~ little English sparrow as ne bal
anced on the wire clothes line
~So?" said his mother, who, for
well that kind little boy on the
third floor for instance said the little
sparrow. "Hc was so good TO me all
summer. He always put out the incest
crumbs Three times = day"
But has he forgotten you now:"
asked the mother sparrow
No. not really forgotten me" the
little sparrow admitted, but he don't
pay attention TO me as ne used to-
He lust throws out some crumbs IN
the morning and then hastily slams the
window shut and 'runS of to school
The mother sparrow laughed We'll.
II that's all the III treatment you get,
/ shouldn't think you'd worry-I
wouldn't
But | don't like it." said the little
sparrow, Il liked TO talk to him and L
know he likes TO talk 10 me, but really
believe he likes school better"
That's natural school IS interest
ing" said his mother.
~Oh, IS It, mother, what do you know
about it,"
Il know a lot about It." she re-
piled and with a coutented little -four
ish of her feathers and she settled her
self to tell him all about IL Cls there
anything more fun than telling all you
lnow-and maybe a little more-to
somebody who can't dispute you.)
You see last year had a nest under
the caves of school house up the
street and learned much about school
then"
Dear me, wish you had built there
this year." said the sparrow.
well I didn't" replied the mother
comfortably, so I'll tell YOU all
know instead. The children sit in
rows and read things out of book (;
then they stand in rows and say things
out of their heads"
Dear me-" said the little sparrow
in a puzzled voice, that sounds very
queer and uninteresting.
That's because you are bird, chill
dren think It is fine" answered his
mother. They like to do things in
rows"

INTEREST IN STATION GROWING

An observer writes OF the growing
interest in the baby welfare station as
follows:
Mother love is being eXemplified
every week at the baby welfare sta
ton. 1t is plain to be seen that these
mothers love their babies when they
come each week with them 10 the sta
ton.
And when baby is weighed and doc
tor says baby has gained during the
