MISS NINETEEN.
Dear Miss Grey. would like 20
answer the writer who signed him
self Joe Nngci" and who recently
answered several complaints about
the groccrs who viii not sell sugar
without the purchase Of a~certain
amount OF other groceries.
The people who wrote those letters
spoke the truth.
Speaking about the limited amount |
81 sugar IN this city. u there such |
a limited amount after hll7 There
In just as much candy made. the con- !
fcctioncry store windows are just hs
full as ever. and the bakeries are
making just ar many cakea. They |

groceries, too and Instead OF these |
let uE live on vegetables and fruits. |
We can all live on these and NOT be |
hungry. II has recently been found /
that fruits soaked in water for ~ |
hours will retain their natural sugar. |
All fruit has natural sugar, especial |
~ raisinH. dates and figs.

self alnos; anywhere. She has
learned In the school OF experience.
The average country girl knows no
real hardshlps. A. for social or po-
liucal strife. the city girl forms her
own opinions. and like e. see a
girl who holds her own. Last but
not least. the city maid knows the
difference between the true friend |
and the would-be friend. and Will stay I
