| Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a boy
| IL years old / pledged my friend
| ship to a girl years ago in an orphan
| asylum. I left there and the girl left
three months after. I haven't seen
the girl nor heard from her and 1 like
another girl very much. Shall I wait
to hear from the first girl or go with
the second girl?
never spoke to the second girl and
don't know any of her friends. How
shall get acquainted? PUZZLED.
There is no reason why you should
not have plenty of girl friends, my lad.
Pledging your friendship to one girl,
as I understand 1T, does not mean that
you must never feel friendly toward
another girl. You were entirely too
young to engage yourself to marry any
girl at that time. 1 hope, If you ever
meet the first girl. that you will feel
yourself her loyal friend. l hope, also,
that you will find she has made many
other friends since she last saw you.
Get acquainted with the second girl
If you wish, but don't make up your
mind that you are in love with her
right away You may not care much
for her after you know her better. You
are still too young to think seriously
of marrying and going with a girl
steadily is apt to make her think you
want to marry here. Just be nice and
friendly. Manage to get acquainted
with her father, or brother II she has
one. Then it will be easy to meet the
girl.
Is it nice for a girl Is years old to
go to a dance given by her friends!
What color dress would be nice for
a girl to wear to dance in the winter?
LONESOME.
It is all right of your parents are
willing. An older member of the fam
lily should take you and bring you
home, if it is at night
Any color that is becoming to her.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) I am a
girl of 16 and have been going with
young man until lately. He doesn't
seem to care for me now. When he
meets me on the street he speaks TO
me. love him very dearly and would
like to go around with him again. He
does not go around with any other
girl. How can win him back?
(2) l know a boy and have been
out with him several times and now
he is very sick. Please tell me If it
is proper TO send him a gift; IL so,
what would be nice for him?
PERPLEXED.
% The boy is Just tired OF going
with you, I suspect. Leave him alone,
my dear. and have good time with
about whether one particular boy
cares for you or not Perhaps II he
sees that you can get along beautiful
Iy without him he may want to take
you out again.
(el Flowers are always acceptable to
a sick person. 1t would do no harm to
send him some.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl
Of II and keeping company with
young man of 81 for about five months,
(1) Is he too old for me?
(2l Is ii any harm of me to go to
his place Sunday evening IL I know

% No. my dear.
ca No., but you should know that
the invitation comes from his folks as
well as from himself.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: My father has
