The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1918-08-16

The government has thought it ad-
vsable to issue a warning to young
girls who are inclined to be 4 little
too free in their demeanor towards
soldiers. The statement says that mo
young woman should approach or
converse Familiarity with man in
uniform unless introduced by mu-
tual friend, or unless he has been
properly vouched for by the commun-
ity organizations. 1t would seem that
it would not be necessary to promul-
gate such an obvious rule Of con-
duct; but many girls seem to think
that because a man wears uniform
the ordinary conventionalties of life
Go not apply to him. There are all
sorts of soldiers, exactly as there ar.
all sorts of men in civil life; and IL
is entirely certain that il he is the
right sort of soldier or the right sor:
o, man, he will be far more apt to be
attracted by maidenly reserve ami
modesty, than by forwardness or over.
