The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1922-09-11

Dear Nrs. Thompson: We are two
girls 1e pears Of age and juniors in
high school. We wou3 like to know
II II ID proper To allow a boy to kiss
as good night. The boys say the rest
of the girls permit them to and II
We don't they will not continue
their friendship with rs. We are
|yery particular what boys We
choose for friends, but they are
all the same. Some people say a
strl should keep all her kisses for
the man she marries, but that
would be cne-sided because that
one man probably won't keep all
his Kisses for us.
Please advise US what to say ii
IL is not right to allow them to kiss
JUS. BETTY apd RUTH.
Promiscuous kissing is abso-
lutely wrong and unless you save
your kisses for the man you want
ito marry, you will cheaper your
self and be incapable Of 4 clean.
fine love. Great love is the only
excuse for love making. l am sure
iyou do not know the meaning of
great love yet and that 1t would be
10 grave mistake to kiss all the boys
who want you to do SO now. Your
friends can't amount to much If
they are interested in nothing but
love-making. / am sure if you look
far enough you will find young men
who enjoy you because you are in
teresting and companionable. The
standards for men and women have
been double in the past. but l be-
lieve men are accepting the ideals
of women; they believe that what
is fair for a man is fair for a wo-
man, too. Mothers are teaching
their sons that love is a sacred
thing to be cherished. There are
boys who respect girls too much to
ask for kisses without love and
such boys are not mollycoddles
They have character and . fineness
Of feeling unknown to the others
Simply say you will not kiss the
boys, and mean it.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are
three girls II, Is and 10 years Of
age. All the boys consider US good
looking and popular.
| Our steadies have proposed tt
us in the past, but we have refused
them. Now we are sorry and
would like them to ask us AGAR
to become their wives. We are
ready to settle down in homes O
our own and we think a triple mar
rage would be very romantic.
/ We are quite "flapperish," eacl
Having bodied hair, wearing shor
iskirts and using rouge. In fact, WI
do everything to try to win theil
affection once more. They seem t
admire us, but never speak of mar
riage. We dream of them by nigh
and think Of them by day.
II FAITH, HOPE AND CHARITY
Girls Of your age have plenty o
time in which to marry, and ar
foolish to worry over pup
loves" You will be much bette
off if you cease trying to gain tn
affections Of these boys, for ono
having 1t, 1t is not likely tnat the
will ask you to marry them. Be
ing a fiapper is nothing of which t
: be proud.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am
girl IS years old and have been &C
ing with a fellow 20. He seems t
l like me, as he calls up two or thre
. times a week il he is unable to Sc
!. me. I like him as long as l al
with him. but when l am not in hi
company l hardly ever think {
him. Do you think he really care
for me and could l learn to car
E for him? Would you advise me t
go with him as he is nice boy an
keeps good company? BOBBIE.
I would advise you to retain tai
: boys friendship. for it is always
