Ala. in regard to purchasing any
clothing or exchange.
I am a boy of eighteen and am
small for my age. I am in love with
r girl nineteen. We are engaged
and do you think it best for me to
marry a girl older than myself, or
wait until I get older and see if I
could get one younger? I love her,
and I think she loves me. She Is a
good wife. l finished school last
year, and the girl will finish this
year. I have light hair, blue eyes
boy. I live in town and like town
life fine. I live in bungalow. How
late should boy stay at a girls
home at night? And what side
should a boy walk on when walking
beside a girl. How often should n
boy call on a girl with whom he is
! engaged? Hoping to get advice
from you through The Journal.
BLUE EYES"
Even though you are in love, you
must use common sense with it.
You must take care of the future
as well as the present. You should
ask yourself whether your love is
great enough to take upon your
boyish shoulders the responsibility
of a wife and, perhaps, children. A
man gives up his freedom as we'll
as a woman gives up hers. If you
want to live up to the words Of the
marriage ceremony, you will have to
place all of your wild impulses be-
hind you. The marriage law is
sacred, and binding, and you are a
felon, a traitor, if you go back on
the solemn VOWS you make to your
Creator" Stop, Iook, listen-heed
the warning-and if you feel that
you have reached the age of discre-
ton, you can go ahead with safety.
Ten thirty to II o'clock is late
enough to remain when calling on a
young lady. You can see her as
often during the week as conven-
lent for the lady in question. Two
or three times should be enough.
come to you for some advice on
different things. I am sixteen and
in the ninth grade; would have been
in the tenth had it not been for
sickness. I am five feet, seven
inches tall and weigh 1913 pounds.
My father and mother will not allow
me to have young men friends. Do
you think am too young to go with
boys? They do not allow me the
privileges that would make life
lot more enjoyable than it is at
present 1t is quite hard to refuse
all the boys who ask you for dates,
when you would like very much to
have a date. There is one young
man my mother gave consent to our
corresponding, but I don't care any
thing for him. / think he is too old
for me and he tries to make love to
me and therefore 1 won't correspond
with him. What do you think Of
girls running away and marrying If
they really love the man with whom
, they run away with? Thanking you
in advance for your advice. hope to
see your reply in the next issue of
The Journal.
UNHAPPY HAZEL EYES.
1t is quite natural for you to
want q good time-enter the
pleasures other girls your age
are having. And your parents
shouldn't be too strict upon you.
But they may be right-and
cannot offer. any suggestion
other than for you TO wait
while and in the meantime urge
your mother to give her consent
for boy friends to call on you at
home. If she is a wise mother
she will see that you have that
which is proper for girl of your
age. 1 do not believe in run
away marriages but circum-
stances alter cases-it depends
largely on the dependable quail
tiles of the couple most con-
cerned. Marry in haste and re-
pent at leisure" is all too true.
Be sure you are in the right in
all YOU do. Impetuous youth
often regrets it's folly when too
late to right the wrong.
I am coming to you for advice. L
want to know the name of some COM
pany that buys false teeth, also
those that. buys hair combings.
Please answer in next Journal.
Thanking you in advance, am,
Yours truly,
MRS. S. L. S.
T don't think there is a place in
Atlanta or any other city where
false teeth can be sold. For each
person it is necessary to make plates
to fit mouth. The only thing can be
used are the teeth, perhaps. l don't
know about this sort of business.
