The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1919-09-12

Dear Mrs thompson: am young
girl sixteen years of age and have
been married one year. My life has
been all happiness until within the
last month. Ever since I married,
my husband and 1 have lived with
his widowed mother and a sister. fiji
teen, one grown brother and his twin
brother We have got along fine until
lately, for we love each other very
dearly, but his sister got angry and
called me all kinds of names and
we quarreled. She said l would have
to leave. l told my husband to take
me into a house by ourselves so 1
could be happy, for all his folks have
turned against me. He said l was
too fiery and quick tempered. Then
I cried and he pitied me, but said he
would have to help his brothers make
a living Do you think he loves me?
Do you think he should take me away
from him, but / can't live here any
longer. His sister and mother treat
me badly and our quarrel started over
reading story books. BEULAH.
Your husband should not have mar
ried you until he was in a position
10 make a home for you. Now that
you are married. however, his duty is
TO you, and if his people make it too
unpleasant for you to bear, he should
leave with you and make a home for
you somewhere else. ] believe he
loves you enough to do this.
If you were reading story books
when you should have been helping
with the work, then you were in the
wrong and should do all you can to
show that you are not Stacker with
the work. SO often a daughter-in-law
goes into a home and takes no re-
sponsibiIity with the work. Do not
make this mistake.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: ] am an or
rI'ar sirl sixteen years of age, and
=, VIA my grandparents. Recently
! haN" met a young man who seems
10 bc. a nice fellow and | have gone
with him several times. My grand
currents like him and think he is all
Iiert for me to keep company with.
There is another boy going with me
and | think more of him, but they
do not want me to keep company with
Linn Should l give him up and go
with the other boy? He seems to
think a lot of me but | only like him
rs friend.
There are other girls who are jeal-
Gus OF me. Some are my best friends.
How can l treat them so they will
not be SO jealous, for l do not want
to lose their friendship? LEE.
If a girl of your age goes with
boy at all, she should do so with her
parents or guardians approval. Since
your grandparents are willing you
chould go with one young man, but do
not approve of another follow their
advice and trust to their discretion.
Be careful not to tell your girl
friends about the good times you have.
If you are considerate of their feel
ings. and do not mention matters
which will make them jealous, YOU
will have no trouble.
Dear Mrs. Thompson; % What do
you think of a boy and girl who go
away for the summer and while away
lead an unladylike and ungentlemanly
life? When the boy returned he tried
10 make something of himself, but the
girl didn't.
t2D Should | be a friend to both?
don't care about being the girls
friend, but | like the boy for friend.
He has been with me once since he
has come back, and while with me act
ed real nice, but since then he has
been with another girl and there has
been a lot of talk about it. ! am go
ing with another boy, but | think
could go with this boy if | wanted L
like both. The hoy I am going with
now is jealous of the other boy,
\. |. G.
You have a wrong and unchristian
attitude. A girl who is looking for
evil III others and talks about it often
doee move ~aal harm than the girl who
is indiscreet.
do not DGlieve that you should try
