Dear Miss Brooks:
Your little corner Is so interesting
and inviting that / feel I must enter
and hope ! am welcome to ask a few
questions. "a / am IS years old and
have been going with boy steady all
winter and feel that / should think
more of other things than boys. 30 how
can I quit him without getting peeved
at him? (2) Is 1t proper to play kiss
ing games at a party? Wishing you
all kinds of success, remain,
PEACHES, Idaho.
Your questions were answered and
sent to the address enclosed In your
letter, but It has been returned to me
marked unclaimed. j am now placing
It here. Sorry for the delay but guess
you will have to accept the blame.
Proper name and address must accom-
pany letters IL you wish answers and
prompt service.
You are right-you should be think
ing of other things, vastly more I'M
portant than going with boys. l can
NOT UNDERSTAND why yOu ndNo peeH d.
lowed to go steady with a boy all win
ter when you are only thirteen. Your
letter shows that you are sadly in need
OF more schooling. Just tell this boy
frankly that you think you are too
young to be going with boys, and that
you have decided not to do 1t any more,
but to spend your time improving your
self instead. There is no reason why
he should get peeved about II. No. my
hi M In
taste. There are many other games
much more enjoyable and less HARM
full Let me know how you get on, dear.
Dear Miss Brooks:
viii you please answer a question
for me. If girl doesn't want to dance
with boy she has never met. how
should she refuse him? l am send
ing a song somebody asked for. Thank
ing you very much in advance.
BROWN EYES. Idaho.
Thanks very much for the song.
Brown Eyes. 1t seems very strange
that q boy whom you have never met
should ask to dance with you. Surely
he must realize no should be properly
introduced. Simply say, you are sorry,
but you cannot dance with a stranger.
TWO SISTERS, Idaho Falls. Ida
Thanks for the songs, girls. l will
keep your envelope for the songs you
request and hope to have them for
you soon. You are most welcome to
any and all l can ind for you.
Dear Miss Brooks:
Permit me to ask a favor of you Will
you please give directions for the plant
ing and cultivating of Jerusalem Arti-
chokes? Yours truly,
j II.
You are most welcome to the follow
ing information regarding the Jeru.
salem Artichoke. The planting and cul
tivation Of this tuber Is much this
same as that of the Irish potato. Plan
1t IS inches apart In the row will
rows feet apart 1t is very prolific
and hardy, and does not require tn,
careful cultivation given the potato
It IL advisable to use waste land fo
the growing of this plant. which som,
consider a pest. as 1t eventually alb

and cannot be gotten rid of, except b,
blowing 1t UP.
