Dear Miss Brooks:

1 have written to your corner before.
The answer / received proved to be so
satisfactory that / am writing again.
% Is girl of IA too young TO wear
earrings and use paint and powder
(2) Is a girl at this age too young to
go to night dances? Wishing you lots
of fun and success in your work. l am,
as ever.
LITTLE BLACK ME-. Utah.
am surely glad you were pleased
with your former answers, my dear.
ID or course baby could paint and
powder and wear earrings, but would
you admire one arrayed In this man
ner? To my personal way of thinking,
they would look alomst as much out of
place on a girl of fourteen. And why
should she wish to use paint and pow
der? If a girl this age is normal and
healthy her complexion is the envy of
her elders who try to gain complex
lon as nearly like hers IS they can, by
using artificial means; and II her COM
plexion is not good, paint and powder
will only make II worse. (2) l would
say much too young to go to public
dances either day or night. I do have
lots of fun, Little Black Me, but sue
cess-well, 1t Is not so easy. Your
letter was mailed directed.

Dear Miss Brooks:
