ly Journal, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Folks:
I hope to get all of the "house
fixing" personal letters answered
this week. Have been trying to get
SAMPLES, and with a number Of sales
of winter stuff going on, it has been
difficult to get samples, of course
what YOU want is the fresh spring
draperies, etc.
By the way, if you have any walls
to be repainted, do have them made
light, especially if you have much
shade around your house, the very
light buff, colonial yellow or light
cream makes the prettiest walls.
Gray is sold and green unbecoming,
and hard to handle.
|. White woodwork may be q little
more work, but it pays.
Cordially yours,
AUNT JULIA.
P. A: Of course it is proper for the
person accompanying a stranger to
a party to introduce him or her to
the other people, when the stranger
is a girl the hostess generally makes
it her business to see that sh is in
troduced to the other people, and
whether boy or girl she always in
PRODUCES him or her to those stand
ing around her.
Loula B.: Some fetching millinery
comes in a lovely shade of soft blue
and with gray trimmings should be
ineede becoming to your blue eyes
and blonde hair. The blue will be
more becoming in the hat than a
grey hat, gor grey is apt to make
you look pale, but as trimming to a
blue ha, nothing will be prettier
than grey.
l.. P: Your idea Of a "pen name"
is quaint, and from your desire to
have your clothes suit your person
atty quite correct L think, how
ever, if you will write me something
really definite as to your coloring,
height and weight, and send
stamped envelope for a personal re-
| ply We will be more successful in
planning this trousseau.
jim: The girl is, or should, always
! be to your left. If it is dark and you
come to a place where you know it
is rough or a step down, as at a
crossing, lightly place your hand I'M
der her left elbow, and in this way
steady her so she will not stumble.
! NO girl like her arm grabbed" so
you need feel no necessity of doing
this.
Isabel: Don't accept costly gifts
from, boys, in the first place you
cannot afford to pu yourself under
! this obligation, in the second few
young boys can honestly make such
gifts.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins Little, Big,
old and Young: All! it's only two little
LOUISIANA girls, with blonde bobbed hair.
Some may n1t like bobbed hair, but we
surely do, and about powder and paint
listen, folks. please let that subject alone
and discuss something else. We certainly
DO enjoy residing the letters where they
take up a subject and discuss it fully,
although Wen not fake one ourselves this
time. We, too, foolishly fond of the
story, Her Money and Dorothy Dix's
Talks In The Journal. What do YOU all
think about it? Say, folks, how did YOU
all spend Christmas? We are almost sure
you all had splendid time We did.
what kind of time you all anteipat-
ing for New Year? We hope everyone is
planning on grand time and will start the
year with many good resolutions and carry
them out. But that's the tronSle with lots
Of us; we fail to do so. don't we? Well,
we see everybody is restless and auntie
