Now please tell me whether you think

for an engagement ring? Please,
Miss Meredith, give me your advice.
LITTLE BIT"
1t is rather a hard thing to
do, to choose between your par
ents and the man you love. Nat
urally, you love them well
enough to want to please them.
But on the other hand, they seem
very selfish, and unfair to you.
Love, and marriage, is a natural
law, and parents are wrong to
want to mar the happiness, of
their children, without a very
great reason. You are old
enough to have some Judgment,
oo1 Won should haUa unnn0r T71nO
friends. 1t is only fair. If this
young man is worthy of you.
And there isn't anything against
him. 1 see no reason why you
cannot continue corresponding
with him. Perhaps he will wait
for you another year. You will
be free, according to law, at the
age of twenty-one, and can mar
ry whom you please. Ruby rings
are just as acceptable as any
other, if the one who is giving
it cannot afford a more, .expen,,
or rare pearl. But it is the
counts. And it is much sweeter
to wear a ring of simple de-
sign, and inexpensive than to
have ones prospective husband
mond ring just to be tashlon-
able. Or to keep up with some
one else.
Here comes a lonely girl of 16 to
you for advice. Am 1 old enough to
have boys to call on me? There is
a boy whom I like very much, and
ne always smiles at me. Don't you
think it would be all right for me to
go with him. What should ] say
when he comes to the door? When
he goes should you tell him that
you had a nice time and for him to
come back. Hoping to see this in |

Yes, you are old enough to be-
gin having a few boy friends.
The boy you mention must like
