ZONE WHO KNOWS"

Dear Miss Grey: Would
like to express my views on
the kissing question.
How many of your readers
ever stop to analyze the
meaning of a kiss? The die
tionary says ii is a caress or
salute, but to me it is a means
of expressing ones feeling OF
tender regard for the ones
we kiss.
/ must say that | most GER
tainly do not believe in pro-
miscuous kissing of every girl
| say goodnight to or take to
show, and neither do the
men that kiss them. That is
why they lose respect for the
girl who kisses, and the men
should lose respect for them
selves too; but they don't,
because their respect is al
ready gone or they wouldn't
do it.
A man Tin the first sense
of the world only kisses the
girl he loves or who is a very
dear friend to him. Then
there is no reason to lose re-
spect for her.

Chantler, "but other docks will be

already experienced costly incen-

prepare at once against such ca

goodnight kiss, am perfectly

When leaving a street car,
man always precedes a woman to
make a way through the crowd,
then steps to the pavement, and
helps the woman down. If she is
an old woman, he guides her to
the curb. There are few occasions
when a man takes a young wom-
ans arm in the day time, but this
is always permissible in a strug-
Cling pushing crowd.

Soap should be used very carefully,
