ADVICE TO GIRLS
Bv Annie Laurie

Waiting May: I'm sure don't see
why you should have been accused
of being a heart-breaker. since you
seem to be the only one who has
acted fairly in the affair you write
about.
In the first place. however, IL you
were not formally engaged to the
man. he had no right to ask YOU
not to go with other men. He prob
ably thought he would make you
angry If he started to go with the
other girl. Whatever-you do, don't
let him know that he succeeded at
all.
Since he has shown that he wishes
to put the past aside. allow him to
call when he wishes, but don't be too
enthusiastic about 1t. That will be
the best way to gain his love again,
by pretending a certain amount of
indifference. If he doesn't care
enough for you to remain friendly,
give him up. You may feel now as
II he were the only man you could
love, but when you stop and consider
how shabbily he has treated both you
girls your admiration may begin to
fade.
