Atlanta tri-weekly journal. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1920-19??, 1921-04-23

When her other fellow got in the
way L tried to kill him, was wrong?
Then is when it happened, the next
week they left, three months later
she returned, he hasn't been seen
since. She wants me to take her back
just as if nothing had happened, but
1 can't. 1 told her that if she ever
left with any man that I wouldn't
three years old, she is nineteen.
Please tell me what to do through
The Journal. I never have given up
my baseball, but she says that is all
right, I never saw her since she came
back. She sent for me three times
SMOKEY.
If you love this girl well
enough to forgive her her past
life, and marry her, do so and
you may be happy all the rest
of your life. You, too, have made
mistakes, you are not perfect,
what right have you to judge
any one. Look into your own
life and see if you have lived
as clearly as you might have
done If you love this girl and
she loves you, forgive her-if
you do not love her, keep away
from her entirely.
Behold L stand at your door. Am
a lonely girl from somewhere in this
world seeking your best advice: Am
in deep trouble. Am in love with a
widower aobut five years older than
myself Am seventeen. I love him
better than [ do my own life. He dld
once seem to think lots of men, but
has not been to my home IN some
time He has asked me to marry him
and I told him 1 would, as L loved
him and he said he loved me. once
[ thought I could no anything but
love him, but L have learned to love
him, and it does not seem like L Will
ever be happy any more, We were
engaged to marry once, but L don't
guess he thinks well enough of me
to marry me. 1 once thought l loved
another boy about two years older
than myself, but I know he never
dreamed of loving me. What would
you advise me to do, as he has left
his home. He does not come any
more, or at least he does not now.
He changed his place and sent me MIS-
na& address and told me to write to
Hfm. I did SO, and he has never ar
swered my letter, He has always
been kind to me, always speaks to rae
when we meet and when he sees any
of my girl friends and 1 am not with
them he asks them about me. DO
you think he cares anything about
me, and what is your advice to q
lonely girl? Give me your best ad-
vice, as 1 am going to take it. [ know
am awful young to be thinking of
marrying, though my parents do not
treat me as they should, and 1 think
L ought to leave and give my other
younger brothers and sisters my
place. If you know of any place that
would make me good home l would
appreciate it very much if you would
let me know where | could become
a nurse, though I am not so very
much educated. How is my hand
writing? Hoping to see an early an
sWer in The Journal, 1 remain. Sins
cerely yours.

an overdose of self pity"
