| Miss Mary. Here comes a loneiv
boy from Collins, Ga, for advice. !
have been going with a girl for four
months, and 1 love her dearly and
she seemed to think lots of me, until
L disappointed her. 1 made three
dates with her, but something arose
which prevented me from filling the
engagements. But 1 wrote her and
explained. The last letter that / got
from her she said [ needn't come any
more to see her, that she was sorry,
but she couldn't go with me again.
Please tell me how I may go to see
her again. 1 hate TO give her up.
Hoping to see this letter in print
soon. w. G. j.
w. G.. J.-If you willfully broke
an engagement with the girl,
that was wrong, but if you told
her it was unavoidable, and ex"
treat you right. And it appears
to me she cares very little for
you. And took the first oppor-
tunity that presented itself and
let you slide. But if you are
willing to eat humble pie then
go to her, or write to her and
implore her to take you back.
But that will only make matters
worse, for she will treat you
more indifferently in the future.
Dear Miss Mary. I am coming to
you for advice. L am a boy of six
teen, am in the eighth grade. My
father does not treat me right for
he makes me do all of the house
work and he does not give me any
thing but my clothes that I work in
the field with. And he is always
quarreling with me all the time. And
my brothers, older than me, pick
on me all the time and shove the
smaller ones ahead of me, and told
me if I wanted to leave to get my
hat and go the road. My uncle told
me If he were me he would leave.
Please give me your best advice.

Gray Eyes.-If your father
treats you meanly and abuses
you, you are old enough to look
out fer yourself and even if you
have to work IN some other
farmers field, it is best to do
that than to lead dogs life at
home.
I can readily understand and
appreciate your position. I have
spent a great deal of time in
the country, in many states, and
not only the country but the
cities hold fathers just like yours.
is a dog, to be cuffed about at
will. Some men are SO brutal
to their wives and children they
ought to be put in the 7eniten-
tiary. Many boy and girl have
left home and owed their down
fall to their ''gcod-for-nothin"
father" However, maybe you
aren't doing your part. Have
you tried to help and not fall
Gown on the job when you were
told to do something? If you are
sure you are not to blame, then
try to find a place and go to
work for yourself.

want you to tell me where there is
place in Atlanta where | can go
and learn hair dressing. Please tell
me their address and their prices
ing place for girls, or not, and what
does one have to pay for board.
Please answer this through The
Atlanta Tri- Weekly Journal. Thank
ing you for your advice.
Yours truly,
SUGAR-LUMP.
AnXious.-Yes, there are sew
eral hair dressing parlors here in
Atlanta, and I think they take
girls to learn the business. You
may write to the S. A. Clayton
company, 10 East Hunter street.
Atlanta, and find out directly
from them, just what you wish
to know. They have the largest
establishment in the city. And
are very nice people. They will
give you full information. Di-
rect your letter to Mrs. Blake,
manager.
