coming for advice. I. Mary, am in
love with a boy the same age, but he
is overgrown for his age, and wears
long trousers. He is nice boy and
is. the brother of a very dear girl
| twice, the last time was at his house,
where l stayed three days on a visit
and he tried to give me good time
and asked the way to my home. DO
you think he cares for me and will
swer to a few questions. Should
you let boy friend of yours have

if it is proper or improper? How
is a good. way to entertain a boy

sing, as I don't want to sing all the
time while he stays. What should l
say when a boy is leaving after &C
companying me home from any
where? Should invite. him in the
talk much. A boy went home with
me from church to another girls
house, where I was Visiting one
night, and when he went to leave. I
said good nipht to him and I hated

me if I love him what should I say
crazy. We are going to wait until
we are eighteen. Is silk chiffon sty-

ASWER-Mary, don't you
think you are rather conceited
and silly to imagine that boy
who merely inquiries the way to
your house, has fallen in loce
with you? 1t doubtless merely
means that he thinks you are
jolly little girl and would like
to be friends. Don't try to rush
love affaors-and besides you are
much too young for such. Wait
at least four years. He probab-
ly will come to see you, if you
act like a sensible little girl
but not if you try to make him
fall in love with you"
Dora, l think exchanging rings
is rater silly, though 1 don't
suppose there's any particular
harm in it. Still, it's one of the
little things that count. I don't
think I would, if I were you.

When the boy has accompanied

his kindness and assure him that
you had q pleasant evening. If
it is not too late, you might in

He shouldn't say such things to
Eou--and you should all be care
full to avoid silly little flirta-
tions, which often cause much
unhappiness and misunderstand-
ings. Just be friends with boys
and let that suffice. Silk chif-
fon, for girls your age, is just
little bit too dressy, unless you
have a party frock made of it,
in some simple, girlish style.
White -organdie. so popular now
and so crisp and pretty, is much
more suitable for girls your age.
Organdie comes now in some
beautiful colors-alnost any
color you want--and there are
so many lovely ways to make it.

What color should I wear Am 1
old enough to go with girls as
friends? What should I say when a
girl passes a compliment on me? Is
it proper for a boy to take a girl
home from church and stay over un-
til after meal time? How often
should I stay at night? Should I
go and stay all day or call in the
afternoon? What should say when

my hair? Is there any harm in TAX
ing a girl. home from church if her
parents do not object? Should the
girl ask her parents or should I ask?
LONESOME BLUE EYES.
ANSWER: Dark blue or brown.
You are quite old enough to have
girl friends-but not old
enough for sweethearts.
Just say thank you," or you
are very kind"
It is quite all right for you
to take a girl home from church
and to stay for dinner, if you
are invited. You. should not go
to see a girl more than once. or
at most, twice week. Nor
should you stay later than nine
thirty or ten. I think it would
be better to call in the afternoon
