Dear Miss Brooks:

Dear Miss Brooks:
know my question is odd but dc
girls my age, nineteen and thereabouts
generally worry over their understand
ing and intelligence7 Is II human ma
ture to feel bewildered when one tries
to analyze the character OF one's
thoughts? When I try to tell mother
my thoughts that are abstract, / mean
that are about abstract things, she tells
me 1 should think of other things. This
is one time I doubt mothers advice so
I come to you. Why shouldn't analyze
my thoughts 80 that when they are
good l can keep them and when they
are bad discard them? 1 have a great
deal of reticence. l am not snobbish
but 1 will not inhict myself on anyone
who shows no interest in me. This
quality l am afraid, has kept me from
having very many young men friends.
They are interested in me as far as my
looks are concerned but / don't want
that, / want to know them. I am tired
OF being just pretty and sweet ! wanr
to have people know I've got some
sense. Can you help me? Trusting you
will consider me worthy of response.
1 am,
JUST A GIRL, Idaho.
Well dearie. perhaps 1 can help you
a wee bit. Your very first query is
rather confusing and I am not sure I
understand just what you mean. AS a
rule girls of this age do not worry
about their understanding and intelli-
gence. whether 1t be above or below
noraml No matter what our age, we are
to grow bewildered IL we attempt
to probe too deeply into the things
are difficult to understand, and
SO II would depend upon what your
thoughts are conferred upon whether or
not you should feel bewildered at your
age. If the subjects upon which you are
are such that they worry you
and keep you anxious and unhappy, I
would advise that you try to put them
II they are sound, healthy,
things which you enjoy reason
ng out. you should continue to delve
or analyze all you wish. Your ac-
Iuaintances have to show an inter-
st In you else you would not know
hey were friends. or wished to be
would you. We can over do
-lmost anything We undertake. dear, so
10 not think too seriously about serious
hings. Be pleasant and agreeable to
our friends and demonstrate to them
our sensible qualities in this way. I
ppreciate your ambition to be some :
hing more than merely pretty and
weet." although this is not a bad com !
ination, and I wish to help you in
very way / can. VIII you not write
ne a letter and specify more particu-
arly in some way. in order that can =
etter understand you problem? If |
