Here comes a little lonely girl fol-
advice. I am sixteen years old. An
I old enough to be thinking abou
marrying? I am in love with
mighty nice young man, age twenty
one, and he said he loved me better
than any girl he ever went with
and I think he does. He kisses me
about six times a day every time he
comes. Do you think that is too
much, or should he kiss me at ALL
He comes to see me every other Sun
day, he lives in the city twenty-fouI
miles from me. -,
I am a country girl-well, I will
describe myself. I have black hair
brown eyes, fair complexion, five
feet four inches high, weigh 14E
pounds. Please give advice. Hoping
to see this in priat.

Yes, you are too young to
marry. 1t seems that girls your
age have the marriage bee" in
their bonnets. 1t comes from
dreaming. They moon" over
their books at school, and
moon" over the dishes at home.
They dream Of knight errant,
with sweeping mustaches, and in
reality some freckle-faced,
knock-kneed boy is sending them
'1ove notes" written on common
tablet paper. But as a girl gets
older, she develops a keener
sense regarding the masculine
sex. She is harder to please, and
in due time she will marry a
man much more suited to her
tastes than when she was four
teen. Do not listen to tales about
marriage. Play awhile longer.
Have good time, in clean,
wholesome sort of way, and

Evidently the boy doesn't care
