Dear Folks: Good gracious me! I
hardly have time or space to say
good morning. The questions are
stacked up in a glorious pile, and
I want to dig right in.
Do hope you have not grown i'm
patient. I went away for two weeks
and stayed five. Forgive me this
time. Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.
Mrs. Thedosia Weber, Crab Or
chard, KY, r. F. D. l., asks for
the song that begins:
"I have a ship on the ocean,
It's plated with silver and gold.
Before my darling shall suffer,
That ship shall be anchored and
sold"
Shrinking Violet:
1 should say your weight was
just about right for your height
and age. The darker shades of blue,
the new shade Of green, a good, not
too dark gray should be most be-
coming to you. With your coloring
just about any color except red is
all right. Your dresses should be
about twelve inches from the floor.
Yes, you should always welcome
the stranger to your town. 1 would
wait to be introduced to the boys,
but a welcome without Introduction
to the girls of your crowd who come
from a distance is not only gracious
but entirely correct. Just get away
from thinking about yourself, try to
be interested in the people about
you. AS soon as you cease to be
self-conscious you will cease to be
bashful.
La Fleta Griffin:
Write to Miss Templeton, library
commission, Atlanta, Ga, and she
will give you list of books and tell
you how you can get them by only
paying postage for their sending and
their return.
G.. S. Brewton, Ala:
Was out of town when your let
ter came. Am trying to work out
an interesting plan for you. Will
write just as soon as it is perfect
ed. Please write me at onces the
ages Of the crowd to be entertained.
Peggy:
You seem to be rather up against
it. Have you considered thoroughly
the objections that your family
have to your marriage? You know
I don't believe family just jumps
to the conclusion that they don't
want a girl to marry and be happy,
unless they have a good reason for
happy. There is quite a difference
in your ages. In fact, if you were
my girl, I'd be very much opposed
to the idea of your marrying any
one for several years to come. II
the man really cares for you, try
to either write him or see him and
explain that you are young enough
and so is he to take time to over
come your parents objections. L
think if you put the matter up to
your parents and asked them to
give him fair chance, then play
the game square, if he's worthy OF
you, things will work out all right.
do not approve of marriages be-
tween cousins.
Miss Dovie May Gilbert, Renfroe,
Ala, Route /:
Wishes news Of Mrs. S. E. Nc
Hughs, also Of Tom Aubrey. Last
heard of in Atlanta, Ca, about five
years ago.
C. S., Alpharetta, Ga.
Your letter just received, will
send you the desired information
right away. Yes, L am glad to do
any shopping for any of my read
ers. And especially the kind you de-
sire.
Blond:
I do not know of a college that
offers what you ask, but 1 do know
that the Georgia Federation of
Women's clubs has loan scholar
ship fund. Write Mrs. H. B. Wey,
Georgia Federation Of Women's
Clubs, Atlanta, Ga. Tell her what
you wish to do. If you do not come
within the regulations of this fund,
she will probably be able to put you
in touch with something. Good
luck. Let me hear from you.
