Dear Miss Brooks:
/ have been an interested reader
of your corner for some time. but have
never written you before. May | ask a
question or two? l ann married lady
and the mother of six children. l have
brown eyes and brown hair, medium
height and build. What colors should
wear and what style of dress? Shouldn't
| go to parties. My age is 10.
viii you please publish the words to
song Three Leaves of Shamrock"
think the first line is:
when leaving dear old Ireland in the
merry month of June.
The birds were sweetly singing and all
Nature seemed in tune.
I hope to see an answer to my letter
in the column of the corner. Thanking
you in advance.
LONEITA.
% Thank you so much for sending
the corrected song. and l hope some
reader will have the song you wish. as
do not find it listed in any available
book or catalogue. (2) Surely you
should go to parties. 1t is parents
duty to have some recreation and pleas
ure outside their home. They should
make every effort to keep abreast with
the times in every way for they must
be familiar with the times in which
their children live, in order to govern
and advise them wisely and well. Your
children cannot be reared by exactly
the same rules which were applied to
you in your childhood days. as each
generation has an entirely different set
of customs and environment which nee
essarily must govern their actions to
some extent. AS to the style of dress
you should wear 1t would be difficult
for me to tell, as there are so many
details to be taken into consideration to
dress becomingly. which | cannot pos
sibly know, in advising you. AS rule
for one neither extremely tall or short.

browns. Oight or dark, most all shades
Of reds and pinks. (if your skin is clear
and not too dark). deep yellows. the
lighter shades of soft blues, and navy.
Dear Miss Brooks:

it very interesting. Will you please

Manu." Hoping you will print it soon,
