I am % years years old and a pri-
vate secretary for an insurance con-
Germ. 1t is a very responsible position,
although the work which / am assign
ed to do is extremely light, and l have
a good deal of spare time, which 1
could put to good use. What would
you suggest. AMBITIOUS.
I wonder IL the International Core
spondence School might not have
some course which would interest
you and which 0 would find profit
able to study in your spare time. l
would also sugges your going to the
public library and asking them for an
outline in some subject such as his
tory, or poetry of famous men and
women which you could follow in your
idle moments.
am a young girl of IS. and met n
young man a few years older than I
am, and went out with him a couple
of times. A week before he left for
camp, he asked me to go out with him
once. I told him no. He went away
without saying anything else. Now
] find l like him very much. What
shall l do?
Take n good long tramp in the fresh
air and think of you'd good fortune in
being given a chance 10 live in it
Then you viii laugh at Stiffness, and
say that you know that you are born
to be happy, and not to be sad.

mind about a little thing. l am nearly

First, 1 must tell you how pleased
I am to receive n letter from a girl
as sincere as you must be.
Second, your first duty to yourself
and to your home is to get an educa-
ton. But. this does not mean tina
you must give UP your ambition to be
of real assistance in money matters II
your home. Take scme teacher int
your confidence, and tell her Just wha'
you have told me. She will be able tC
guide you wisely.
I have been invited to q party t.
which my hostess asked me to brins
a young man friend. Would it b'
proper to ask a young man who ha
been at my home once and will cal
again Sunday night' My parents lik'
him. and think him fine.
EFFIE.
If you ask a man friend to accom-.
pany you to 4 party. you will be re
sponsible for his having n good time
With this in mind, If you feel that IN
will be quite frank in declining rs yor
are n giving the invitation, n i
you have the approval of "r mother
tell him of the party and its coz
trary" plan for it's guests. eff If, IT,
you are saying: true enough, but eacl
can be met by you and dismissed
wisely.
Could you tell me il il would b
all right for me TO 80 with fellow
when + am Is years Of age. asains
my fathers wishes, with n boy who i
four years older? He is a boy o
good family and is very nice to me
Also. If this fellow asks YOU to marry
him when you are 20, what would yoJ
tell him to do?
MILE.
A girl of 10 should he gJ;ded by the
wishes of her parents. You shonit
mike it as easy as possibly Nv com
plying. as far as possible with what
thew ask Of YOU.
There must be some good reason
why he does not wish YOU to go with
this 19-yer-old boy, and. as a father
has moe mat'Ir0 }sS~"@N~t much un-
hanpiness can be avoided by u CIR
