BROWN EYES. p
ANSWER-You are very wise
in deciding that you are too
young to marry and to refuse to
kiss the boy until you are older
and more nearly ready to be d
married. You will be still wiser
now if you will simply put aside
all thOnghtS Of hna t,tS avid
devote more time TO your
studies. Then you will find that
it is not so hard to learn as
you now think and you will
probably enjoy school much
more than you do now. There is
fasclna ton about learning new
things. You may acknowledge
an introduction as you indicate
in your letter. If a boy says
that he loves you, tell him you
appreciate the compliment. but
that you prefer that he not
make love to you until you are
Older. The druggist in your
home Town can recommend a
good toothpaste to you and will
DE glad to do so if you ask him.
DO not quit going to school. Stay
in school until you at least have
fairly good education.
