boys as girls in our orchestra, and we
certainly do have fine times practic-
ing and playing together.

my age and height Joined one of the
senior classes at Sunday school, and
when the superintendent found he
could play the drums we'll. he asked
him 20 Join the orchestra. He was in
trodUced TO all of US. and has proven
10 be a fine fellow as well as q good
musician.
I sit near him in the orchestra and
sometimes at concerts and he seems
10 take quite an interest in me and
my playing. He can also play the
violin. having taken lessons before
learning the drums, so he likes 10 fol-
low my musical score when he is not
busy and give me a hint occasionally. /
have taken a great liking 10 the
young man. I know he is a clean-cut
fellow and have come TO know his
family 10 be good people, also. Late
" / have chatted with him frequently
az rehearsals, so our friendship has
grown more close, I think.
Strangely, he has never asked to .
take me home from church or other
places where we may give a concert
/ do not go with any fellow, so that
cannot be the reason he does not
AXE me home. He has never invited
ne out 20 any of the doiugs at church
n parties at my friends homes. I
am quite positive ne does not go with
my girl in town, and think he knows
care quite a bit for him
What can I do 20 gain his closer
friendship. rs I do not think there is
much friendship in talking 10 each
lther only when playing in the Orches-
ia, and not going together any out
side of that. MAY.
The boy would take YOU home from
