Agrees With doc"

Dear Cynthia-May I have few
lines of your useful column to comment
on a letter that appeared in your paper
December 20? This letter was signed
Doc. He or she observes that there
is Il spirit Of otiishness in our city. say
ing that he often sees group of four
or five girls alone out walking and boys
alone. Why can't they go together? is
what he wants to know. Well, so
do |.
I-know of such definite case. I
know a crowd of girls-about six-who
go together. They are real good
looking girls, intelligent, witty, pleas
ant, entertaining, good dancers. good
dressers. This sounds promising,
doesn't it? But it's true. Still these
girls, who are about eighteen, do not
go out much. When they give parties,
they try to invite boys who have taken
some of them out already. But some
times they run short and invite others
whom they know. The latter, when
they meet the girls at a dance. ignore
them. ! understand the girls feel
hurt Do you wonder? They're not
even asked for one dance. All they get
is sweet smile. l cant understand
it. If any of your readers could ac-
count for these circumstances, I'd ap-
preciate letter through your column.
The paint and powder girl is seemingly
the only one who has the boys. Why?

POOR FAMILIES WHO GO TO
THE MOVIES TWICE A MONTH
Are Considered Ungrdetl and Unworthy of Charity, but
They Need That Bimonthly Boost for Their Courage

NTNHAT family doesn't deserve any
\ help" reported the charity worker
at the weekly meeting of the ladies' aid
society. 81 have seen them twice in
n month at the movies. 1t seems very
ungrateful for them to be spending their
money on pleasure and accepting our
help at the same time"
She didn't mean to be unkind, and
every one agreed with her. On the face
Of it the situation did look ugly-a
family accepting charity when they had
enough to spend money on entertain
ment.
But I wonder whether she has ever
drawn a picture in her mind of her
self as a member of that family. If
she had she would have seen herself
coming home after n days work, hard
work, tired, cold after a long ride in
the trolley, hungry. She would hurry
into the kitchen, help get supper, sit
down in n chilly room to eat it, wash
the dishes and sit down in n dreary,
cold room for the evening. She would
be wearing dress that has been made
over and over, with pockets to cover
patches and braid to hide darns. She
would be exhausted from shutting to
keep warm, smiling to keep from sigh
ing. whistling to keep her courage up,
struggling, striving, planning. But she
wouldn't show any of that. She would
show always a cheerful face, brave
Indifference to hardships, nonchalance
in the midst of misfortune.
And then some evening she would
have that so far and no farther feeling.
Come on, let's go to the movies !" she
would exclaim to the rest of the fam
lily. And they would scrape up the
price of the tickets somehow and go to
the movies. Then for half an hour
they would forget themselves to laugh
spontaneously at their favorite come
dian. Laughter, warmth, entertain
ment, relaxation, what better medicine

What causes man to ask for kiss
on a short acquaintance? I've had
lots of experiences with all kinds of
girls and there are some that | would
not ask and others that | cannot help
asking, and still some with whom
! go so far as to take them in my
arms and just kiss them. | know the
latter sometimes don't want to be
kissed. Their minds ball, but their lips
yield. As | said, I've had lots of ex-
periencc and can read their characters.
Bnt | never take advantage of that,
for most all girls want to do right.
SO, my guide is the girls actions at
the dance or show or wherever it NAV
be. In my light, it's the way the girl
acts that makes the man of short ac-
qunintanCe ask for kiss.
There are good and bad girls and
some good girls make an extra large,
sad mistake when they pretend to be
something that they are not.

Girls! Do not "vamp" the men and
