I am sure you are making a wrong
one. wish / could talk to you and
tell you just how much the world Of
BOYS and girls, men and women, who
have really accomplished anything, or
hope to accomplish anything in this
world, think of the girls who have
pursued the course you are now pur-
suing. And is not your self-respect
and the respect of your associates
worth more than what you mistakenly
think constitutes good time?" You
used the small word 'if'' well. When
you said "if a little flirting, few
kisses, etc." do we not know that
il is what some are peased to call
the "littIe flirting" the white lie,"
the Small theft" which lead to the
great crimes which are committed?
When this small indiscretion is COM
mitted, it is not often the intention to
commit greater ones, but the small
ones too often soon seem of no con-
sequence, and greater ones are in
dulged in.
Perhaps you have an exaggerated
idea of what good girl should be.
She does not necessarily have to he
prude. You should by all means go
out with young people. Go with a girl
friend, cultivate happy, jolly dispO-
sition, wear smile, be as entertain
ing as you know how to be, and you
will soon find there are boys who ap-
preciate girl of that sort more than
the one who allows him too many
privileges. Save your affection and
caresses for THE man you respect
and admire above all others and who
cares for you for yourself alone and
who admires you for just what you
are now doing holding yourself abb
solutely above reproach.
Dear Miss Brooks:
/ read your interesting corner in
our paper and like the rest have a
question to ask you. Please tell me
the proper thing to do and say when
introducing people and when being in
troduced.
A BOY, Ephraim.
The simplest form of introduction
is always the best, and can be pro-
perly used on all Ocasions as:. Miss
Smith, let me present MIR. Jones. Al
ways take the gentleman to the lady
and speak the lady's name first, pre-
! senting the man to the lady. A gen.
i tleman, if introducing friend of his
own sex to lady, may say: Miss
Smith, Mr.. Jones desires to be pre-
scented to you.
i When introducing people of the
same sex, the younger is always in
troduced to the elder.
A man upon being introduced to a
lady usually acknowledges the intro
duction by saying: am very happy
to meet you, or similar phrase A
lady acknowledges the introduction
only by bow and repeating the name
of the person introduced.
