VIRGINIA LEE ON
LOVE AFFAIRS
DEAR VIRGINIA LEE:

DEAR VIRGINIA LEE:
AM twenty-five years old and
have known a young man q
few years my senior for about
three months, during which time
1 have seen him on an average
OF once a week. Whenever ne
comes to see me he never sug-
gests going out, and We always
spend the evening in the house.
know that there has been a
death in his family, and that he
cannot take me TO a show, but
do feel that he ought to at least
suggest bus ride or something
like that.
1t makes me think that he is
taking advantage Of my hospi-
talfty, and the only reason that
! allow him to call is because !
like him very much.
l am wondering whether / am
pursuing the right path in al
lowing him to call, as. feel that
il he were anxious to make a
good impression and thought a
lot of me he would try to enter
tain me in some way instead of
letting me do all the entertain
ing.
He lives quite a distance from
my house and il takes him q
long time to go back and forth.
LOUISE.
Don't you suppose the young
man is SO delighted to find a
girl who is old-fashioned enough
to entertain a young man in the
parlor Of her nome. instead of
making him take her at once to
some city diversion, that he over
does his welcome?
think you have been enter
tanning enough and now II is his
turn, so 1 advise you next time
to call and tell him you wish to
go to a theater. This will not
be at all discourteous on your
part.
