AMONG US GIRLS

You've seen it all over 1.-The voice
with the smile wins. OF course you
have heard bitter acid, fretted tones
of your neighbors when addressing
somebody. If by nance your own
nerves are a bit jagged from a long
day at the afice or at school te teach
ing or studying 1 don't need to tell
you just what an effect that has!
You have heard that sullen tone
tina some of abe neOighbffw$dwtthi
that some of the neighbOrs daughters
use to their mothers, of course you
wouldn't use it, out you know Just
what I mean. They say it takes W
to make a quarrel and you know just
how hard 1t is to quarrel with a per-
son who is always talking with a
\ voice that seems to smile. / should
a that this would be a wonderful
Eorld in which everyone was Compel
g to see whose voice with a smile
d win.
When you go to a lecture isn't it
he voice with the smile that wins?
tWell. the voice that will win from the
. rostrum will win in the parlor or in
the school room or at the Office. An
Ole adaRe says "smile and the world
smiles with you and even the good
book" says "A soft answer turneth
away wrath" So after all as the boys
something in that thing after all"

always dancing and singing. l think
/ ought to describe myself. 1 am five

Big green eyes. I think l ought to
clos for I said too much. I hope
we will succeed in making a Y w. c.
JAZZ BABY"

ed with Dorothy Dainty" | also

Helen so many boys read our
column and 1 wouldn't be a bit sur
prised if I looked in the EVENING
NEWS and ound an us Boys Col
umn" too. I think 1t would e fun to
have IN us Boys Column" don't you
girls?
"Oh wouldn't 1T be lovely if we
could have a Y. w. c. A? If I was a
fairy princess or something like that
for just a little yhile at least we would
have a X. w. C. A. right away, but as
am not a fairy or anything like
It we will have to wait and get a Y.
w. C. A.. I wrote this letter over
three times because was so careless
and wrote on BOTH sides of the paper
you may be angry at me,
sssatTng this but really 1 was so
disappointed when you said we
couldn't have pins because the only
way we can find out If a girl wrote
to the column is by asking her do
you write to the US Girls Column
sFWhat Is your non de plumeY But
as long as we cant have pins we
can't. We ought to be glad that we
have the column.
Gracious my letter is getting long
but I'm going to enclose a recipe
then. I will stop writing,
