Their "steadlesr Deserted Them

Their "steadles" Deserted Them
Dear Cynthia--We are two young
girls of eighteen, very stunning and
extremely popular
Now for the last couple OF months
we have given up all our other men
for our 'steadies."
One night last week in the park where
we met them right away they started
kissing us and we wouldn't LET them.
Since then we haven't heard from them.
Dear Cynthia, what shall we do, for
most all our friends give us the cold
shoulder sooner or later for that same
reason?
POOR BUTTERFLY AND PAL.
1t seems strange if you are both SO
stunning and popular that you should
be having a hard time to keep your
friends. Learn from the experience,
however, that it is a great mistake to
let all your friends go for any one man
unless you are to marry that one man.
Cynthia has said this over and over
again. And do not meet men in the
park; let them come to your house to
see you,
