IVORY to do. Do you think it best
for me to go to school or keep house
for father, brother and sisters? l am
in the ninth grade. l have gray eyes,
weigh 1876 pounds. What will make
me grow?
Do weigh too much? I am feet
inches in height. L am very bash
full. What shall L do to avoid being
bashfuI?
L like the boys as friends. Is it
all right to go in bathing with a
crowd of young folk?
Answer-Can't you arrange a
system by which the other six
children can help you with the
to school, too? Arrange 50 SOL that at
each child has some allotted
task, the doing of which will
tighten your work. Or couldn't
your father get some woman to
keep house, so that you might
have, the benefit of school? 1t, is
too bad for you to miss an edu-
cation, though if there is no
one else to care for the little
children 1 think it is your duty
to look out for them.
Outdoor exercise, plenty of
good, fresh food will help you to
grow. You are just a little too
heavy for your height, but not
enough to matter.
Try to forget yourself, in see
ing that others have a good time
that's the best possible cure
for bashfulness.
"A Yes, if the party is chaperoned
by an older person.
L am girl, sixteen years old, COM
ing for advice. 1 have dark blue
eyes, dark curly hair, medium COM
plexion. What colors should I wear?
I am feet 4 inches tall, weigh 1852
pounds. Don't you think I am too
heavy? What can 1 do to reduce my
weight some? Should go kodaking
with several other boys and girls
Should I carry my kodak in a carry
ing case? Thank you very much.
LONESOME Grille.
Answer-If your skin is clear,
and not too dark, you should be
able to wear almost any color
except bottle green, dark, harsh
browns and purple. Yellow, rose
and dull blue should be, your
best colorS.
You are too heavy Try not to
eat fat meats or starchy foods
corn, peas and butter beans must
be avoided, and nearly all
sweets. Drink plenty of cold
water, and exercise out of doors
as much as possible.
kodaking parties with
crowd of young folk are lots
of fun. For convenience, your
kodak may be carried in a case
until ready for use.
What should wife call her hus-
bands. parents? Should she call
or should she call them Mr.. and Mrs.
Black, or whatever it might be?
Answer-what you call your
great deal on your feeling to-
ward them and on what you
call your own mother and IA
Their. Some brides, who call their
to their husbands people. I be-
lieve the most acceptable form,
however, is Mother Black or
Father Black'-"Mr. and FRS"
Black sounds distant and I'M
friendly.
Will you help a troubled hearted
girl? I have been going with boy
Of 20. He told me several times he
week ago and went with girl before
me and this girl is very proud of 1t
and she don't seem to like me.
What can do. Would you advise
me to win him back or just let him
go as he is a f1irt, L think. Should
a girl go car-riding after night. The
boys all seem to love me but L don't
care anything for them except the
20-year-old boy and my folks don't
want me to go with him. Please
give me advice?
A GIRL IN TROUBLE.
ANSWER: If you think the
man is f1irt, your pride should
forbid any effort on your part
to win him back. BY all means
let him go. You may go car
riding at night, if there are 9TH
ers in the party. Forget this
boy and be content to wait un-
til the real man comes along,
Real love is well worth waiting
for, and playing at love in the
meantime will spoil things for
you later.
I, Mackie, am II. and In love with
a boy 81. He loves me dearly or
at least he proves it. He has a car.
Would 1t be all right for me to take
Sunday evening rides with him?
I, Arab, am Is and in love with a
me. I love him better than any boy
I have ever seen. How old should
a girl be when she marries? Is six
teen too young?
I, Rose, am Is and in love with
a boy of 10. He has walked home
with me several times. Do you think
he cares for me. He does not go
with any of the girls but me. Please
give us advice.
MACKIE, ROSE, ARAB.
My dear girls, you are all far
too young to even think of love
affairs. And certainly you
have no right to think that a
boy is in love with you just be-
cause he has walked home a few
times with you" 1t IS all right
to go for car rides with boys,
provided there are a crowd of
young people, or you have a
chaperon along.
