AMONG US GIRLS

Dear Girls:
Isn't it strange haw as children we
will take sch violent likes or dis
likes for certain foods which people
tell US ARE good for you" or will
make you grow big and strong 1
thing in my childhood everytime some
one told me that whether 1 liked the
dish or not 1 would Immediately sub
consciously take a dislike to it.
Now today, according to the high
est authorities (they call themselves
the highest authorities don't take my
word for it, children should be al
lowed to eat any kind of nourishing
foods which they like. Food which is
forced upon children which they dis
like docs not do them an ymaterial
good. This must be remembered
though, hal children should not be
allowed to eat a graf amount OF
SWEETS or tn like ujst because they like
them. But if q child takes an utter
dislike to green peas don't make her
eat them, but give her another vege-
table which she does like.
I thought I'd tell you about this
SO If you have any younger brothers
or sister you may be able to per-
suade your mother to try this out.

Dear Helent

Dear Helen;
Well, at last I am writing. 1 have
started to write about five times but
never finished my letters. I read
the among Us Girls column every
afternoon as soon as we get the
paper.
/, like most of the other girls, have
q cousin in a foreign country. My
cousin lives in France and h is
about my age. Her letters are very
interesting and if L get a letter from
her soon L will send it to you.
l am a book-worm n just oppo-
site to my sister "Babs," who also
writes, I like love stories. 1 would
like to get that list of books and
copy them in my treasure notebook
where 1 keep the things L treasure
most.
At know Beach Flirt," "Venus,"
Dorothy Dainty" and 1 think I know
'Dimples'' and "Will-o'-the-Wisp."
My one ambition Is to become a
lawyer and as L am a Junior l have
intentions of going to law school.
Yours very sincerely,
"KIDDY."

I certainly am sorry to hear you
say that we have lost 'Trixie," out L
don't see why she should be lost to
us. If she is in Philadelphia now 1
am sure that we would all love to
hear about hat city because I'm
sure many of us haven't seen 1t and
those of us who have would like to
compare notes and refresh our mem
cries. So the next time you hear
from her tell her that she mustn't
let this column drop.
