MRS ELIZABErE TLeAQ5QN

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Cd There is
a young man who comes once in a
while to call upon me. He acts very
foolish and silly and sometimes even
rude. He makes me nervous and l
talk cross to him After he has gone
l repent for the way / have talked to
him. If | apologize, the next time he
acts as silly as ever The other girls
notice it and it makes them mad, too
What shall l do?
90 When a boy calls on a girl
should he tell her that he has had a
good time, and should she tell him to
come again?
~ Should girls get up picnic and
ask boys. or should they let the boys
suggest il first?
"a l am Junior in high school and
my nickname is Jimmie" Should the
boys call me that or am I too old?
90 There is a boy who calls upon
me sometimes. When he is here he
sings songs and uses my name and his
name in place of the ones supposed to
be used. I resent this and have told
him so, but he does not heed. What
shall do to make him stop? I have
told him time and time again not to
do it. MARIE L.
% The boy will not stop being silly
because you are cross, but if you ap-
peal to his pride and let him know
what you and other people think of
his Stiffness he will stop. Some time
when you are alone with him tell him
that YOU like him because of certain
qualities which you really do admire.
Mention the qualities and get him in
a pleasant mood Then tell him that
you think he would be much better
liked by everyone if he would stop be
ing silly. Say that other people is
we'll a you think he would be much
nicer if he didn't try to be funny.
90 1t is all right to go through the
ceremony, but it is not necessary be
cause both the girl and the boy take
it for granted that the other feels that
way
90 It is usually better to let the
boys suggest il, buff they have taken
the girls a great many places it is all
right for the girls to have q picnic
and invite them.
