sociable girl. VIII you please tell me
how ! can keep my friends

vite boy friend to her home to

previous dates? BILLY.

others and a sympathetic listener.

not like you.

with your disposition II YOU find
out why your sisters do not like YOU,
you will at the same time discover
one reason why your girl and boy
friends do not enjoy you after the
first time. A disagreeable DISPOSE
ton shows in a personality even if
the klndest words are spoken
y 1t is considered all righ, for a
girl TO invite young man TO her
home II he has shown previous inter-
est. But in reality it is better tor
the girl TO wait for him to ask to
call.
