| On my desk are a number of letters
with no name or address enclosed.
Space will not permit Of their publica-
ton as 1 must give preference to those
| who comply with my request to en-
close name. This is rule which is
not at all difficult to follow and is a
great help to me as well as to those
who write these letters, as 1t enables
me to communicate with them when
their answers cannot appear in the
paper because of the limited space.
Several OF these letters contained songs
which have been on the requested list
and I here and now gratefully acknow
ledge the receipt of them and hope the
writer's will send their names right
along, in order that may answer their
queries.

ceiving your answers If you fail to
give correct names and addresses. Only
a very few of the letters I receive can
be answered through your papers. and
1t is necessary, therefore, for me to have

your questions, please comply with this
request.
Dear Miss Brooks:
We certainly enjoy your corner and
read it the first thing when the paper
comes. We want to ask you a few
questions: (I Is it correct for a girl

a girl be popular among the young
men? co May girl of IA read novels?

still in style? Thanking you for the
answers we are sure to receive,

Thanks, girls, 1 am so glad you do

to answer this question, which seems
of such Importance to the girls, so many
times. that 1 am now at a loss what to
say next, except to repeat what 1 have
already said so many times. 1 would
much prefer advising you girls to let
the boys do the worrying over how to
be popular with you. This would seem
the normal and natural way out. Have
you ever looked up the definition of
popularity? According to Webster 1t
