DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
II I should give an analysis Of

To the man who advocates
promiscuous kissing must be at
tributed either baseness, ignorance
or abnormality, or all of these
base, because he cannot appreci-
ate woman's greatest charm,

does not comprehend the funda-

because he is out of harmony with

her falls to zero. Every student

About seven months ago I met a

engaged to be married. At the same
time she was much sought after by
a young man OF the "he-vamp" type.
He almost succeeded in spelling this
girls future life, but as she held
nothing back from me. he was
foiled. The girls people think I
am the one who tried to drag her
down, and are always praising the
other fellow in my presence.
Do you think I am playing the
fool by not telling the truth about
this fellow? I have thought il out
myself. and ] think that ] would
do more harm TO the young lady
than to the young man. She is only
eighteen, and think il would
handicap her future life II such
