inches tall; will be 10 years old on
my next birthday.
I am in love with a boy aged 10.
He is a good, nice boy and respected
by everybody with whom he is ac-
quainted. He lives near me. We
have been going together three
years; have been engaged about
| three times and some one would
! break us up by telling stories. We
are engaged now and have been for
some time. He says he dearly loves
me and has proven his love toward
| me by respecting me. He says he
will never marry if he doesn't marry
me, but wants to put it off until
| Christmas, so that he can be better
| prepared. He has put it off before
| that way, but seems like he can't get
fixed like he would want to be. He
said he didn't want us to go in with
our folks. He wants to get us
| place to ourselves and live without
disturbance between our folks.
1 have lots of other boy friends
who asked me to marry them, but 1
| cant love them as well as I do this
| boy.
The boy I am engaged to does not
write to other girls or go with them.
He did until we got back in, and
then he dropped them all. He said
he couldn't go with several girls
and get along. He has quit several
girls for me. 1t makes him angry
when 1 go with other boys, but he
tries not to show it. know it hurts
him when I am with other boys by
his actions. Would it be best for
me to wait on him or go with the
al T thiolx nnIII6 him
to make the date sooner by talking
to him, but I do not want him to
think I am in hurry. OF course
I am not and haven't been, for we
have gone together for three years
and think it would be best to settle
down than to linger and maybe
break up. He says I have q good
home and he wants to prepare
good home to take me to. Your adj
vice will be highly appreciated.
Please tell me where I can get a job
sewing, as I am a very good seam
stress. Please print this in the next

Perhaps this boy to whom you
are engaged to marry is unable
to support a wife. If he con-
tinues to put off marrying you
for financial reasons he can not
support you. And hardly
think you love him we'll enough
to marry him. You should APP
preciate the young mans desire
to give you as comfortable a
home as you now occupy. IL
won't hurt to have other COM
pany as long as this mans plans
are so indefinite and unsettled.
1oo1>;,,or cd
vice, and I'm sure you are tf& one
to go to.
I have been going with a boy for
two years. He says he loves me and
T can't say I don't believe him, for
he has proven it. I love him and
have told him so when he asked me.
We are not engaged, and L don
guess he thinks of anything of the
kind. He is just 10 years old, and
T am II. Do you think he will love
me when we are older, and is it
best for me to return love IN my
letters to him? He always writes
real love letters.
Thanking you for a reply that is
of your best opinion, very truly,
ANNETTE.
"Love-sick," the gnawing feel
ing, the icy hands, crimson
bushes all denote this disease.
The doubts, fears and tears also
60 with it. Is there a cure?
Yes-experience. Let each day
take care of itself, be as happy
as YOU can, let no evil thought
of tomorrow mar the tranquil
ity of today. When you close
your eyes in slumber after the
day is done, have no foolish
fear for the tomorrow-for 10"
you will behold the sun rising in
all it's crimson glory, to shine
as it did yesterday. The great
est troubles are those that never
come to us. Let your faith and
trust abide in this boy, and he
will reflect the faith and trust
you place. in him. Be always
careful what you write. A girl
has to keep her feelings well
in hand to be successful in love.
Here comes another Georgia girl
to get some Of your good advice, as
1 have no mother to advise me. I
want to know what colors would
suit me best. I have medium brown
hair and brown eyes, medium COM
pleXion.
I met boy about year ago and
he came to see me every Sunday and
in the week until about two weeks
ago he came to see me and tried
to get me to do things I would not
and I knew was not right, so he
got angry and said 1 did not do him
right, for lis to be engaged to be
married Christmas. He said he Was
not coming again unless I did and
L haven't seen him since the Sunday
night he left my home angry. He
told me to write him, but he was
not going to write to me, so l never
have written. Do you think I ought
to write to him, also please tell me
what would be suitable to send
soldier sweetheart at camp for a
nice Christmas present.
I'll close, thanking you for your
good advice and hoping to see this
in print. Sign my name.
The boy who professed to love
YOU, and wanted to marry you
Christmas, is not a gentleman.
He has insulted you, and shown
himself in his, true colorS. You
are best off not to ever have any
thing further to do with him.
A man who will try to destroy
your honor and wreck your life
is lower than a rattlesnabe, and
if you have the good sense to
harken to a word of warning
you will certainly profit by it
later.
