Happy Memories

Dear Miss Lee: A girl does not have
to 20 the limit. or anywhere near the limit
to command the friendship of men. Only
one thing is necessary. That i'll my belief
is personality.
For five years have had all the good
times any girl could desire. u had the best
there is-proms, frat dances: etc. L learned
to dance swim, play tennis and golf.
l had dates with the fastest and the
"slowest" and never allowed any man 1b-
critics. never had one fail to ask me for
a second and third date.
The worst l ever did kiss some OF
them goodnight A kiss is what you make
it," Harm can be put in 1t.
My friends give nothing to men but
friendship and a few moments at meeting
to study one anothers tastes. We don't
smoke We don't drink Neither do we
swear. And last, but not least, we did not
stay at home.
we bobbed our hair, used rouge and lip
stick and wore short or long skirts, as
fashion decreed. But we knew the limit.
have been married six months and am
very happy. l had nothing to regret in
my life and can hold up my mead with the
best of them
Mr.. College Man. you have used poor
Judgment in selecting your friends And you
and your bachelor friend are all wrong
in your estimate of the girls of today

thing is essential to popularity. That
is personality.
If a girl has that she can have all
the dates" she wants without in

character in the slightest degree, ac-

IVY E were in Spain. We had
NJ been to Madrid and now
w we were in a little VII
lage near Toledo.
You know Toledo was a great
city long before Madrid. was. and
it hasn't changed much. Really
It IL so old that you expect to see
some soldiers riding down the
narrow streets with suits on like
those worn by the soldiers In the
pictures Of Christopher Column

Now, this little own was as
old as Toledo and they hadn't
changed their mode Of living very
much from the time when Queen
Isabella is said to have sold her
jewels to give Christopher Co
lumbus the money to outfit his
expedition to discover whether
or not the world was round.
We were in a little inn, where
the chickens and pigs, and dogs
and, donkeys, ran in and out Of the
courtyard as if they had rooms
in the Inn themselves.
In the evening l used to like to
sit out in the twilight and see
the young people walking back
and forth along the one street Of
the village and listen to the gull
tars. How disappointed I was,
though, when one evening q
phonograph struck up, Eyes, We
Have No Bananas.
However. itSvas very old and
charming even with that silly
song on the photograph.
Across the street lived a man
whom we soon saw was a milk
man. For every morning he
would start out with his donkey
and his two big milk cans
strapped on each side. And again
in the evening he would start on
his route.
THAT man certainly loves, his
donkey" said Bobby, as we saw
him put his face alongside one

Margaret's desk in the corner was
