Dear Mrs. Thompson: (D / am a
girl % years old and have gone with
one boy ever since l was II. He has
been Jealous OF my affections and
thought he expected to marry me. be-
cause he always said that l was the
only girl he ever loved. He went to
the officers reserve camp and met the
daughter of a captain. He seemed to
fall in love with her at first sight and
they were married after three months
acquaintance. Do you think he had
any right to do this?
i2) l have never gone with any boy
except this one and now / feel per-
fectly lost and don't know what to do
with my time My mother is dead and
my father and l live alone. My ia
Their is old and l am afraid even he
will be taken from me. Then l will
be desperate. What can you suggest
to keep me from being so melancholy?
NJ r.
% My dear little girl, it is cir
cumstance which is inevitable. The
boy probably was young and did not
feel prepared to marry until he met
the captains daughter and then he be-
came infatuated with her He did not
mean to hurt you and probably does
not realize to what extent he has. He
should never have claimed all your
time without meaning that he would
marry you: and you should never
have given him all your time and
thought without being engaged to him.
A girl simply cheats herself when she
limits herself to one boy friend. You
are still young and have great deal
of happiness ahead of you if you re-
/ fuse to grieve and make up your mind
that if that boy wasn't for you, some
other boy will be.
(2) Go to the Red Cross and you can
help people who are having terrible
suffering and trouble. 1t may be that
hearing about the trouble that others
are having will help you to bear your
own. If, however, it makes you more
melancholy. you ought to have a
change Perhaps your father can ar
range to send you on little trip. o.
it might be a good thing to work
downtown where you will be kept
busy and cannot give much time to
your own thoughts.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am going
with young man who is one of three
children-they are all boys. The other
