your corner. Would you please an

L would like to meet a certain young
boy who is also in high school. What
would you suggest 1 do? ca am II
years Of age and like certain young
man very much but we quarreled over
a small incident. I would like very
much to get on speaking terms with
him again. What would you do?

persuade mutual friend to present
him to you. This should not be
difficult thing to maneuver. 90 That
would depend. Do you feel you were to
blame for the small incident?" If so
you could gracefully acknowledge be-
ing at fault with becoming dignity. as
it takes courage and character to ad-
nit oneself at fault, but If you do not
consider you were to blame, let time
take care of the adjusting of the diff
hculty, as 1t surely will Don't you |
think it rather foolish that small in |

where you do not speak to each other? |
