ls This Kind, 81. OF e.?
Dear Cynthia-One of your CORE
spondents, who Jgns herself Expert

OF the readers of your columns.
To begin the subject, Experienced
claims all fellows like to make fools
out of girls. Does Experience" ever
think Of the girls who make fools out
OF us fellows? We are like the pro-
verbal fool and his money. All girls
think Of at this present age is to get
some poor simp and fleece him for a
good time, and when he cant show

kissing business is what ! call puppy

fckleness. You say you would have
died for this man. In what manner
would you have given your life for him ?
Would you have taken him for better
or for worse? Would you have made
a home for him? Would you stand by
him if he should meet with reverses.
1t he got down financially. would you
go get position, too. and help him
get on his feet? Or would you hunt
some corner and sit down and bemoan
your fate. and wonder why you ever
married such a man? All these ques-
tions | ask you are the questions of true
love. You know. Experienced, that
they all spring that stuff about dying for
each other; and often after marriage
they arc trying to knock each other s
head off. sit back and wait. YOU say.
Yes. there arc good women and men.

No. Experienced, don't make q

women should act.
A man generally pays good price
for good article. bur a poor article
is paid for accordingly.
The good girls Of today are the old
fashioned kind. who don't sit in car
and pull out a powder puff. or make
their faces look like Indians on war

their knees; who will ENJOY and appre.
Ciate a fifteen cent movie as much as r

are never throwing out hints for a
feed nor asking Where are we going
next week." Lots of them have the
nerve to ask fellow: Where do we
go from here" The kind of girls we
sensible fellows arc looking for are not
the jazz baby, nor the doll, nor the
kissing bug.
LOTS OF EXPERIENCE.
