Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee;
have read much of your advice in

receive from the young people seems
very foolish and silly.
Now, I'm not an old maid, but am
Just a girl of 10. I'm going to ask
your opinion on some of my personal
interests, as 1 think your advice is
very good. AS I said before, I'm 10
and lively, good-natured girl. Ill
not say I'm a good sport" as I'm
not a sport" in a certain sense of
the word / am full of fun, in for
good times and like to be on the
Ego" I've been going with boys
since I was 10, but always with the
consent of my parents. l make
friends easily (both boys and girls),
and the girls seem to like me, al
though some of them get very jeai-
Gus. They think I'm nice-looking
and really more attractive than
themselves. Perhaps I am nice
looking, but I know I'm not attrac-
tive in the way many girls are. /
