home, and meet and know them
on a friendly basis. Why don't
you show this letter to your
mother. wouldn't deceive
her. If you ask her in the
right way I'm sure she will per-
nit you to have company. Par
ents are often the cause Of early
and unhappy marriages of
their hildren-because of the
lack Of understanding girls
home should be the place for the
company she wishes to see.
And it's the mothers place to
see that she gets the proper
treatment.
I am girl of % years, have blue
eyes, black hair and dark complex
ion, five feet nine inches, weight 100
pounds. Am in love with a boy of
Is summers, and think he loves me,
but he never says anything about
marrying. Do you think it would be
all right for me to propose, as I am
the oldest? And is it correct for a
girl to go out riding with a boy at
night? Do you think 1t proper for
me to let a boy kiss me goodnight at
| the door of my home or any place?
Please tell me what to do about this
boy, as I am very fond Of another
boy nearer my age, but don't see
much chance for me, as there is an
other girl before me-
FOOLISH PEGGY.
A boy of sixteen is entirely too
young for girl of twenty-five.
And too young to marry any one.
And 1t would be exceedingly fool
ish for you to propose to him
even if he would marry you. He
is too young to be harnessed
down to a wife to be taken care
of. When man loves a woman
and wants to marry her, he will
lose no time proposing to her.
1t is always wise to have a
chaperon to accompany you on
your drives at night. A girl
can't be too particular. kissing
is not only harmful and degrad-
ing-but it is insanitary. A girl
doesn't have to kiss her boy
friends when they call to see
her. You still have plenty of
time to marry-so don't worry.
Dear Miss Meredith: We are two
lonely sisters at home, coming to you
for advice. I, Violet, am 81 years
old, weigh 125 pounds, dark-blue
eyes, blond hair, fair complexion. I
am going with a boy 81 years old I
have been going with him three
years. He don't go with any other
girl but me. He is a nice boy. Every
body thinks well of him, and my par
ents have no objections to my going
with him. I am with him every
Sunday. He always treats me nice
ly: Do you think he cares for me?
Or, is he just going with me to pass
| away the time? Is it all right for
me to go car riding with him on
Sunday afternoon? Would it be any
| harm for me to have my picture
made with him? I, Pansy, am 10
years old weigh N s. pounds, brown
hair, brown eyes, fair complexion. I
| am going with a boy FL years aid. T
have been going with him about one
year. Is it all right for me to go
with him to sing at night If my older
sister and her beau is with us?
Would it be all right for us to sit
on the porch on moonlight nights?
How late should boy stay when he
| calls at night? Would it be all right
for us to spend the night at our
| married sisters home and write our
| beaus to call on us? Thank you for
your advice. VIOLET AND PANSY.
L think the young man likes
you very much. He proves it by
coming to see you so often, and
by not calling on any other girl.
There isn't any harm in your GO
ing car riding with him on Sum
days. No harm in having a post
card picture made with him.
Pansy. There is nothing i'm
proper in your accompanying
the young man to singing class
at night, and it is all right for
you to sit on the porch on moon
light nights--if you don't sit
too long. And it is proper to ask
your friends to call to see you,
IN your married sisters home.
[ am lonely girl, age seventeen.
coming to you for advice. My mother
died when I was fourteen years old,
and I am staying with my grandpa,
and want you to advise me what
to do. I am going with two boys.
| One of them is a farmer and the
other is a cotton miller and I love
| the farmer better than the other
one. The farmer boy says he loves
me and wants me to marry him,
and it seems that I can't be happy
without him. Please advise me what
to do. I thank you for your advice
as I have no mother to advise me-
BLUE EYES.
ANSWER.-I think if the far
mer boy is worthy in every way
| of your love and you love him,
I don't see any reason why you
| shouldn't marry him. It is true
you are very young, but you may
be best off married. AS long as
| you haven't a mother to guide
| you.
