It may be, Good But Lonely, that you are in the wrong environ ment and that you need to go away from home and meet strange men. Often a girl gets sort of pocketed in her own little circle and she has to break away and go where people are not accustomed to her to make them realize how attrac- tive she is. I don't believe any girl is passed over just because she is good. God help the world if the time ever comes when men cease to admire modesty and purity in women! DOROTHY DIX.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-09-06

A girl attracts him because she has got such cute way with her, and the next week another girl has got him go- ing because she talks baby talk to him, and the next month he is sure he will die if he doesn't get the girl whose step matches his in the dame.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-09-06

Many men don't do this. I have seen plenty of widowers marry young, frivil- ous girls no older than their own daughters, and have seen men marry cold, selfish women, who had no pity or sympathy for children in their hearts. Such marriages as these are bound to bring misery on all concerned.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-09-06

Dear Dorothy Dix-I am a widower with two children. I lost my wife some years ago and have never remarried, though I am only thirty-eight years of age. Did I do wrong by staying un- married all these years, or should have got married again to give the chil- dren a mother? 1 felt that I had no right to burden any woman with some one else's children. Was this the right view to take? T. J. l..

DUV tHprE HrC pItHty UT SOUu, kind, sensible women who give a mothers love and a mothers ten derness to their stepchildren, and who make for them a home where they can grow up under their fathers influence. Such women never consider their fstepchildren an infliction.
 Also you have to consider your self. Children grow up quickly and go about their business of life, and you will find yourself a very forlorn and lonely old man unless you have provided yourself with a companion for your old age.
 DOROTHY nIX

twenty years old is old enough to know his own mind about love? Jane.
 Answer: No, vindeed, Jane, don't. A boy of twenty has not come to himself. He is just a kid, with a kids changeable tastes. He is crazy about one thing today and wild for another thing tomor- row, and tired of them both and wants something else the next day. And it is the same way ahout love.
