Dear Miss Brooks:
This Is the first time I have ven
tured into your circle. But neverthe-
less have read It every time it has
been published And l think you and
1t are just wonderful, and now l am
going to take the privilege Of asking
few questions. ~ ! am seventeen
and have my hair bobbed. Do you
think / am too old, and should let it
grow out? Can you suggest some
pretty way Of combing it? (2) Do
you know of anything that will keep
my hair in curl? 1t doesn't hold the
curl over night. (3) Miss Brooks, l
want TO work somewhere. 1t isn't
because / have to, but because feel
like l ought to. Father has bad
health and have a guilty conscience,
every time he gives, or / take any
thing from him. There's no work
here and mother doesn't approve of
me going out Of town to work. Can
you suggest anything could do to
make money to help out? (4) am
small for my age and naturally pretty.
The only trouble is have quite few
moles on my face. Is there anything
THAI will take them off without leav-
ing a scar?
Well, Miss Brooks, will relieve you
for this time. / guess there are lot
waiting for chance. / sure hope
may call again. would give all l
own if / could talk to you in person.
Thanking you for your patience, I
am as ever,
JACQULINE.
Notice the rules at the head of our
column in regard to name and address,
Jacquline. You will receive more
prompt service, as / can write you
personally instead of waiting your
turn in the paper. 1) No, you are
not too old for bobbed hair il it is
becoming to you, but if not, / should
let it grow out. When too long to look
well, curl on tissue or waxed paper, by
cutting square and laying the strand
of hair in 1t and rolling hair and pa
per up together. When taking it
down, do not comb the curl out, but
arrange in the National bob style and
cover them with net. This will
hold the curl in better and look very
pretty, especially if your hair is
thick. You can fasten the curls in
the desired shape with small pins.
(2) There are many curling fluids on
the market, but / know Of none that
are very reliable, and they make the
hair brittle, causing II to break off.
(3) You have worthy ambition, but
are you not still in school? If you
send name and address will give you
the name of publishing house who
pays good commission for taking
subscriptions for their popular maya
zines. This is very nice work and is
about all could suggest for you. You
could do this after school hours and
Saturdays. (4) Moles are very hard
to handle. ! do not know Of any cure
except the electric needle and even
this is not always satisfactory.
Call as often as you like, my dear.
Will gladly do all / can for you.
Dear Miss Brooks:
I have been very interested in your
corner and would like very much to
join you.
How should you trim your finger
nails properly, and could l get you to
send me the words of Tuck Me to
Sleep in My Old Kentucky Home"
II boy should ask you to 90 to
lunch with him, and you wish to go,
what would be proper to say?
Thanking you,
MICKEY.
Welcome. Mickey. The finger nails
are rounded slightly beyond the end
Of the finger, but not in such n long,
sharp point, as has been the custom
In the recent past. Your song Gun be
readily purchased for 80 cents in any
Of the music shops. Only such songs
and poems as cannot be easily found
in the shops can be printed in our
columns. A simple "Thank you, will
be glad to have lunch with you" or
"Yes, thank you, will be delighted to
have lunch with you" is proper.
Dear Miss Brooks:

enjoy it very much. Could you tell
me good way to remove freckles ?
