In last weeks issue of the Progress
sive, the Wolf Run correspondent
wrote an article against kissing mat
tiers. | do not believe that there is
any harm in kissing. When young
man gets nice girl, why can't he
put his arm around her and give her
a smack 2" Oh how sweet it is to
kiss a girl, but our Wolf Run CORE
| spondent would kiss a girl quicker
than | would. | have been with him
quite lot in my time and he always
fancles pretty girl, but he would
never kiss one at ali for she would
kiss him. Do you believe that kissing
creates a great deal TO love? please

betrayed him. Now how is a man
going to keep his girl for if he did
not kiss her someone would take her
away from him.
