bring about results and you will
not find yourself without friends.
Don't be impatient because boys
don't like you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am Il
years old and have been going with
a boy one year my senior. He
comes to see me often and treats
me So nicely that l dearly love him
when | am in his company but
when l am not with him l think
don't like him any more. He is
a very nice boy and my mother
likes him too. She does not want
me to have young men callers if
they are not the right kind. Please
tell me wha. to do.
JACQUELINE.
Regard the young man as a
friend. and do not encourage him
to think you love him when you
are together. You are not in love
with him certainly, or you would
feel differently when he is away.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l have a
boy friend who is working away
from here. He writes to me twice
week He says he likes me, but
he tells his boy friends things that
are untrue about me. Do you think
he does like me? r. TRENT.
l am not a mind reader, and
cannot say whether or not the boy
likes you. Tell him that you wish
he would not tell such stories about
| you. If, however, the things COM
promise your character, cease to
write to him and no longer con-
slider him a friend.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: have
! been married four years. My hus-
band and l get along just fine. but
there is one thing l don't like.
! Every night when he gets through
eating he goes over to the pool hall
/ and they hang around outside and
play ball. Then l have to. stay
| home alone with the baby.
! have talked nicely to him and
been angry about it, but nothing
helps. He works all day in the
, factory and says he is not doing
any harm.
Would you advise me to gel
somebody to take care of the baby
so that I can go out too? Please
tell me what to do as l don't want
to make any trouble.
j LONESOME WIFE.
i After all what harm is your hus
band doing by going out for a lit
= tie recreation after a day of hare
work? 1t is quite true that yor
are lonely at home, but you have
much to be thankful for since you
husband does not drink harmful
liquor and run out with othel
women.
Think of the things you and h,
! used to do together before you wer,
married and occasionally max
suggestions for amusement tina
will include you. On such Occa
sions get some one to come in an'
stay with the baby.
4 Try to have the child in bed earl
so that your evening can be at you
. husbands disposal. So often
woman loses the companionship @
her husband because when he mos
: wants her to. be with him she i
washing dishes, canning fruit, TAX
ing care of the baby or doing othe
; things which make it impossible TO
him to enjoy her. Some women fin
: it possible to arrange their task
= $50 that their evenings are free.
Does your husband play cards
3 II SO you might invite some Of you
7 mutual friends to come in for a
: evening Of cards. or course a hus
: band and wife grow closer togethe
| by reading in the evening than il
7 any other way, but if the husban
e Is not interested In books, Of cours
| that ID out of the question.
Il Make . study Of your husband
: tastes. and / feel confident that 70
Il can conquer your problem.
