Dear Miss Grey: The dis
cussion in your column In re-
gard to "promiscuous kiss
ing" as Minnie B. Frazier
terms it, has just come to my
attention. and | would like to
voice a few opinions on the
much abused subject.
In order to get the proper
light on the matter, 1t is inn
perative that the moralists
should divide into two
classes those young people
who are not exceedingly
particular with their oscula-
tons.
The first class, | designate
that boy who takes out the
girl whom he thinks he will
win temporarily with his
personal charms, and their
kisses are after-runners OF
evil thoughts and worse &C
tions. All decent and re-
spectacle people condemn
this class.
On the other hand, you
will find a class of good,
clean. wholesome boys and
girls who to each other are
jolly good fellows, and in
most cases are and remain
lifetime friends, whether or
not there should be a Hiss or
two during the course of
their acquaintance.
Miss Grey, l know girls.
good girls, that have actually
been kissed, and strange to
relate, they still command
the respect of every young
man OF their acquaintance. l
hope that no one will try to
say they know good look
ing, pleasant and attractive
girl whose age ranges from
IS to "a that has never been
kissed by a boy friend.
In last weeks Saturday
Evenin oPst, Irwin Cobb tells
a story of a pretty young
southern girl who kissed a
young Jewish boy. that she
had never been formally in
troduced to, when he went to
fight for the rebellion. When
Felsburg found out that he
was fighting against his prin-
ciples, he continued to fight
for Dixie and the sweet girl
who kissed him.
Don't you think that when
an upright, honest boy is so
honored to get a kiss from a
good girl, that will try to
make himself worthy of asso-
ciating with that girl? Don't
you think a kiss after pleas
ant evening with a fine girl Is
enough inspiration to keep
away from those things that
aren't good? II a girl let's
a boy kiss, it's a sign OF con-
fidence she has in him, and
the BIO yof good caliber ap-
preciates 1t, and makes him.
self worthy in her estima-
ton. TONY.

Many of the original contractors for the railroad who had contracts for year will be paid off about the first of August and many of them will then leave that section for the states" Mir Lawrence said.
