al am a girl Of t8 and In love
with a very dear boy Of 22, and
have been keeping company with
him for almost three years.
He called on me about two
months ago and said he was going
10 leave town because he saw me
talking TO a boy friend and was
Jealous. He said he couldn't stand
TO see some other fellow get me
when he loved me so true. Now.
Miss Grey, would you advise me
TO lose all OF my boy friends Just
because he 10 jealous? He never
acted like that before. Please adj
Wac me what 20 do. LIZZIE.
A.--Now IL the time TO be kind
and firm, and real help to the
boy.
Certainly you should not give up
all your friends, but be fair to your
self and your true womanhood In
your attitude toward them and
him.
Let him go away II he wants to.
He may see the senselessness OF
jealousy sooner by doing SO.
Work the problem from your
viewpoint. and let him work his
he kind. and remember while taxi
ing this stand that jealousy does
not belong TO his manhood, and
that he will see II himself, sooner
or later. and be glad you did not
cater to II.
II you are at all ut fault In flirt-
ing. or trying to make him jealous.
OF course. that Is a part OF your
problem.
DO what IL right and Just to
yourself and him, but be kind.
