Dear Miss Blake: l have followed /
" it'll great interest your Advice col
umn. and now l am going to ask
you to help me as you have helped
others.
am a young girl. IS years old.
and have in the past year paid many
visits to friends and relatives, and
on one of these visits met a young
man (son Of my hostess) and no
seemed to like me very much. in
fact when left he wrote to me, and
I answered his letters. The last one
he wrote put off answering and II
was fully a month before l again
wrote him. Since then I have not
heard a word from him except
through his mothers letters and
messages given me by her as COM
ing from him. And now his mother
Is insisting that I visit her again.
What would you do in these circum-
| stances. Thanking you in advance
for your kindness and hoping to get
an answer soon I am.
CONSTANCE DARLING.
l should say, Constance. that he
was hurt by your negligence, and IL
you are so minded, the very incest
thing to do would be to accept the
| invitation. You may be sure II was
| not extended without due consulta-
tion with friend son.
Dear Miss Blake:
1 am a young girl of II years. I
have been going out with fellow
seven months my senior. He asked
me to go out dancing with him and
I refused. Ever since then he has
not called upon me. So would you
kindly advise me how to gain his
love back again.
BROKEN HEART.
Naturally, you hurt his pride,
Broken Heart. And a young mans
pride is something you can not trife
with. You probably did not soften
the refusal with a plausible excuse.
I don't know just how to go about
regaining his affections. unless you
just wait on Fate to serve you a
gracious turn. That's about all
young lady can do under such cir
cumstanceS.
Dear Miss Blake:
am only 16 and have known a
young man of IS about one year.
He has been constantly on my mind
and il worries me a great deal. AL
though I never went out with him
we were quite friendly. Now he
has left town. and don't see him
any more. Miss Blake, will you
advise me whether l should call
him up or forget about him, which
I can't.
WORRIED.
No, dear. don't call him up. I
think you are just romancing about
him more than, he is entitled to.
Dear Miss Blake:
am a girl of 16 and like a fell
low three years my senior. This
fellow Is a brother of my best girl
friend. and every time 1 go there
he tells me that when I'll wear high
heels and put my hair up he will
take me out and he says he will
wait for me. He keeps constantly
asking me when l will grow up,
and I tell him that I'm not in a
hurry. would like to know what
you think of 1t and what it means.
SALLY.
The boy is just teasing you, Sally.
dear. Does he not tease his sister,
too? 1t means nothing at all, child
Just a nice little brand of pleas
antry your chum's brother is pro,
viding.
Dear Miss Blake:
am a girl of 16 and go with
boy two years my senior. 1t
seems I am only good enough for
him when we are alone. But as
soon as his friends come around he
leaves me and goes with them.
When I correct him about it he
doesn't seem to care. What is your
opinion of a fellow like this?
g. BLUE EYES.
Aren't you adopting a most pro-
prietary- attitude for one of such
tender years? think you are. Blue
Eyes. And it seems rather silly to
me. You should not be more than
just friends and he quite free to
come and go as he pleases.
Dear Miss Blake:
I am going with a girl who is
one year younger than myself and
whom-I love. @.
She has stated many times that
she cares for me, but every time
see her she quarrels with me and
