A Lonely Soldier Boy.

Dear Miss Libbey: have been on
the border for two years and two
months. I was wounded once. en-
listed in 1913 and I grow lonelier
every day. I have no sweetheart to
write to. Do you think girls care for
soldiers, anyway? o. M. N.
Why not try to enlist some of your
soldier boy comrades in your behalf?
They have sisters, many of whom
would be glad to add postscript to
the letters they write to their broth
ers. Try the plan. 1t would be
something to look forward to, to re-
lieve the dull life of a soldier laddie.
Dear Miss Libbey: I am young
girl of 16, engaged to be married to
young man when l am IS. He comes
to see me every Sunday, also every
Saturday evening, but he goes to see
other girls on other week evenings.
My parents won't let me go very
much, as / am still in school. Is it
proper to kiss him goodbye when he
goes? He says it is, because we are
engaged. I have not done so, though
he has requested it several times.
MISS S. A.
An engaged man has no right to
call on other girls. When he chooses
one he is supposed to pay her his
whole attention. Be very, very chary
of kissing even a betrothed lover. A
good night kiss in the presence Of
your family may be given now and
then, but the fewer the better.

Faint Heart Ne'er Won Fair Lady.

reader Of your heart talks-19-and

so miles away. She treats me like
an ordinary friend. We seldom write
to each other. She is the only girl
l have ever cared for. Please advise
me how I may become better ac-

auainted with her and win her love.

Write a straightforward letter to
the young girl, explaining matters
just as you have to me, and leave
the rest to her.
Treat the Promise as of No Conse-
quence.
Dear Miss Libbey-A short time
ago / met young man who seemed
much interested in me. After max
ing a number Of calls, he left, saying
he would call me on the telephone, as
he had previously done. | have wait
ed two weeks and he hasn't called me
up yet. What should L do? Should
l speak to him or recognize him
hereafter? lam very much disap-
pointed as l did care for him.
MISS d.
You cannot afford to allow the
young man to think you are so in
terested in him that his failure to
communicate with you has grieved
your heart. Treat the matter as of
no consequence whatever. If he re-
fers to it, explain that so many
called you up on occasionas when you
were out that you did not know
whether or not he was one of the
number. If so, he can tell you in
person what he would have said over
the phone. Be bright, pleasing and
good natured if you chance to meet;
always greet him politely, but do not
Il u
hint would lessen his esteem for
you. He may simply have forgotten.
Time rectifies all such things.
