SEPARATED BY
 STORIES TOLD

Dear Miss Lbbey:-
 am IS years old, had nice young man company two months. Once he took me to a party. A friend told ne this young man was telling awful sto- ries of me. Listening to a few, got mad on the way home; upbraided him. He denied saying a word and begged me not to believe them. I thought he was just denying it and refused to go to places with him again. He attended no more gatherings, as when we went together. Later I proved he said none of these stories. By. chance, I met, apologized to him. He vowed I was the first girl he ever loved. He asked and told whom I was keeping com pany with. He was hurt when I quit him. I would like to go with him again. Shall I try to win him back :? Please advise.
 Unbelief and a little haste has wrought mischief with more than one sweetheart. He seems to care for you yet. You can do nothing more than to apologize and have faith that all will make for happiness in the future, if it is intended thus.

LOVE FOR A
 MUSIC COMPOSER
Dear Miss Libbey:-

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 am 20. years of age. in love with a, composer of music and songs. I don : know him to speak to, yet often see him. Would it be proper for me to write him note to call on me? Shall find out if he is married? He has dark, wavy hair and dark eyes; al- ways smiles. Can I help thinking about him? Saturday I passed him. I smiled, but he turned his head. He had package in his hand. Was that the reason he did not speak, I wonder? :? Help me, by kindly advising.
 JB. c. cannot encourage you to think it right for a girl to be foolish enough to fall in love with a stranger who may have a sweetheart or a wife. Few men respect a girl who consistently singles them out or makes advances, such as writing them nnce to call.

Dear Miss Libbey:-

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 Please inform your readers what should a girl do if a. youth brings her home and makes no move to help her out of the buggy. The row of seats at school is placed against the wall. If a youth visits me there is he to sit down first or next to the wall, or am I to sit next to the wall? As a girl is intro duced to a boy ought she to say: t'I am glad to know you, MT. B. ?'' no- tice many girls say this.

dian, the sojourn at a place where he must go through a perpetual grind of washing, combing,s shoe b1acking, dressing up in clean clothes, is tor ture indeed. When in addition to that he must answer questions, tell his his name and age and how far along he is in school, the thing is unendurable to juvenile flesh.
 A family vacation ought to be a general rough and. tumble for the youngsters. The dirtierz they are, the happier, and commonly the better off physically. Many families break with favorite hotel resorts at about the time when their children get ac- tive, and demand a free and untram- meIled life in some little family home of their own5

Dear Miss Libbey:-

Dear Miss Lihbey:-
 I have accompanied a girl about. Through some fault of different people she has numbered me among not high class. She seems not to desire my company among others. But she ai- ways looks at me at different meet ings. like her very well. She told me there would have to be an awful good reason if we were to quit going together. I know of no way I could see and talk with her. Kindly suggest the best plan.
 JF You cannot take matters in your own hands If she has not love for you, wait patiently and try to win her love ahew.
