CAROLINA JEWETTS ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME

1. We have brown eyes. One of us
is in love with a boy 16, and I am
only IA. We are going to have a
box supper at our school the 18th
of this month. Would it be all right
for him to escort me home, about a
mile? If not please advise me how
to get rid of him. I, B. L., am in
love with boy II and he is real
handsome. I am fourteen, too, and
the boy has almost. worried me to
death. Must L go with him? B.
l.. and c. M.
Answer: 1 think that it is all
right for the boys to walk home
thinking so much about being "in
love-" and will remember that at
IA years one is not yet old enough
to forsake school books for serious
affairs. Do not go with the 17-year-
old boy, if he worries you to death"
Make friends with girls of your
own age, and begin to study and
improve yourself, and when you are
older you will be much more attrac-
tive and charming.
2. I am a girl of more than Is
and love my parents dearly, but they
seem not to care very much for me
and I spend most of my money for
the beauty of the home, but they
pleasure. l. all SOlIIS Will d yum .
man who seems to love me very
much, but is. jealous of me. 1 am
admired by all young men and also
by married ones but am not crazy
about any man. Would it be best
for me to marry as soon as possible
or wait until I finish school. [ have
three terms yet. / do not have any
desire to live because my parents
seem not to care for me. H. E. P.
Answer 1 am afraid that you
are thinking too much about your
self and about how much you do
for others. 1 am sure that your par
ents care a great deal for you, and
you must net encourage such feel
ings. Just love them and take 1T
for granted that they love you and
be happy. You should not allow
married mex to express their ad-
miration for you too much, and If
you are not particularly fond of any
particular man, why not put aside
the thought of marrying until you
meet someone for whom you do care
great deal.
8. I am a girl almost sixteen; am
coming for advice. Am I too young
to go with the boys? I am in love
with a boy eighteen and he says he
loves me- Am 1 too young to mar
ry? Am L too young to go to par
the boys? What should 1 tell the
boy if he asks me to marry him
Ny parents don't object to this boy
coming. A Lover of Sport.
Answer. You are not too young
to go with the hoys occasionally,
but you are too young to let the
boys make love to you and to be
lifetime proposition, you know,
and it is far from happy sometimes.
Tell the boy that you are too young
to marry him. 1t is all right for
you to go to the movies and parties.
4 We are twin girls of eighteen.
We were each in love with soldier
boy and they went to France. and
we kissed them good-by. Should
we have done that? And when they
Some more boys aand we don't know
which we love the best. Should we
give up the soldier boys or the 9th
ers? And is it right to ask the
boys to carry us to the drug store
and treat us when they don't think
of it? And how should we fix our
hair when we go with them? And
should they stay later than IL
o'clock? Should we tell them 20 go
home? And what should we say?
And when they start home should
we say stay longer or to come
again? And when they won't come
to supper should we go eat Or
should we stay with them and if
we go eat what should we say about
leaving them alone.-TWIN SIS
TIERS.
Answer: You are not so very
deeply in love with either of the
boys if you do not know in the bot
tom of your heart just exactly
which one you like best. Give up
both of them as sweethearts and
keep them as friends if you can. I
would not ask the boys to take me
