Thanking you for your best advice,
A PITIFUL GIRL.
Your plight is sad indeed. And
it is such pity your father
cation will be to you. There are
many colleges throughout the
country that may help girls to
get an education. Why don't you

Lucy Cobb college, at Athens,

Mr.. Dykes, superintendent of
Atlanta schools, personal. He

Your mother is nervous, and
is perhaps overworked herself.
And she doesn't realize what she
is saying. So often people are
hardest on those they love the
best. Try and be patient with
her. Do all you can to relieve
her of some of her burdens.
And while it is hard for you now,
my child, keep your eyes on the
stars and make up your mind
that you will put up with your
mothers fault-dnding until bet
ter things turn up. If you try
to do right, good luck is bound
to come to you. You are not
lazy, but your mother cannot find
anyone else better suited to pick
on. Some day things will be
different for you. If a boy wishes .
to write to, you, he is supposed
to ask you if he may.
We have heard so much of your
good advice, we are coming to ask
you some questions that we do not
remember reading in your ancwers
in The Journal. We are two girls,
ages % and Is. I, age %, am feet
inches tall, weigh Ill pounds. Do
I weigh enough for my height? If
not, what should I do to gain flesh?
