Making Oates" With Girls.

What is the proper way to ask a girl
to go riding the next Sunday after
noon? Also, how should a boy ask
to take q girl home from a party ?
When a boy and girl are walking
together, should the boy always keep
to the outside of the walk, or is
there any set rule?
When leaving church should the
boy or girl lead the way out?
What should a boy say when he
wishes to take girl to some party
or entertainment?
In short, how does a boy make
dates" with girl?
These questions have always trou-
bled me exceedingly and l would
greatly appreciate their answers.
D. o. L.
Don't try to use set phrases. I
have heard boy say, Come on and
go riding with me Sunday, will
your" That is as good way as any.
May I walk home with you?"
Come on and let's go to the socia-
BILE at the Methodist church Monday
night" Just ask the girl to go with
YOU in the way you would naturally
speak to her. That is the way to
make dates" Always let the girl
precede you in entering or leaving a
public place. The rule is that the
man shall walk on the outside of
the walk, but on quiet street,
where there are many turns, this
necessitates so much changing that
it is often neglected. Act naturally
and do not try to remember rules of
etiquette. Just be courteous and
treat the girl as you would want
your sister treated.
To S. U. f.
Girls Of 16 are young to be taking
up social duties! However, especial
ly in small towns, there are many
parties and socials given which they
are expected to attend. Do not
worry about what you should say.
Just say the natural thing. If you
do not care to accept the invitation,
say "Thank you, I am sorry I can't
go with you, but have another in
vitation." If you do want to accept
it, say Thank you, I'll be glad to-"

Objectionable, but as usual thing it
is better to go right home and get

a great deal Of sleep, and there are
many years ahead Of you for rides
and parties.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
am a young girl Of II, with brown
eyes and curly hair A nice young
man, whom I met recently, has been

You will have to learn to take
fiattery gracefully, for men will con-
tinue to pay you compliments wheth-
er you want them to or not Many
men think all girls live for is fiattery,
and they put it on thick. The best
way to cure him is to make him see
how silly it sounds. Whenever he
tells you how beautiful you are, tell
him how stunningly good-looking he
is, and be just as ELUSIVE about it as
he can be. He will soon find you
are making fun Of him and stop. Be
good-natured about it and he will
