VIRGINIA LEE ON
PROBLEMS OF
LIFE
DEAR VIRGINIA LEE:

7 AM twenty-five years old and
have known a young man a
few years my Senior for about
three months. during which time
I have seen him on an average
of once a week. Whenever he
comes to see me he never sug-
gests going out. and We always
spend the evening in the house.
I know that there has been a
death in his family. and that he
cannot take me to show, but
do feel that he ought TO at least
sugges; a bus ride or something
like that.
II makes me think that he is
taking advantage of my hospital
ity, and. the only reason that
allow him to call is because j
like him very much.

ing HIM 20 cali as feel that II
he were anxious to make good

me he would try to entertain me
in some way instead of letting
me do all the entertaining.
LOUISE.
Don't you suppose the young
man is SO delighted to find a girl
who is oId-fashioned enough TO
entertain a young man I'm the
parIor Of her home, instead OF
making him take her at once to
some city diversion, that he over
does his welcome:
