Chronicling the fact that Tom
Moore had won a priced golf
cup at the Film Daily's tourney
in New York, the extraneous
information was added that Mr..
Moore is also a petrol entire

Park road. Nothing could be
further from the truth unless it
could be a small boys denying
that he could take his raspberry

Dear Miss Flo:--
Why do men demand that girl
submit to their caresses If she wishes
to go out with them? Recently met
a man whom / thought | would like
very much. He asked if he might
call to see me. He came the next
evening. We talked for while and
| found him most interesting. He
suggested the theatre. We went to
show and had perfectly wonderful
time. Coming home, however, things
began to happen. He tried to kiss me.
I objected. He said that all modern
girls went in for "petting" and he
didn't care much for icebergs. | told
him I'd prefer not entertaining man
at all if | had to resort to kisses to
do so. He laughed. We parted friends,
but I have never heard from him
since. And | liked him lot ! am
wondering if perhaps I was foolish.
I hate petting-I think it disgusting
and vulgar-but after all, a girl is
only young once, and entitled to some
fun. If she doesn't smoke, drink
and pet she stays at home. Is the old
fashioned girl respected for having
ideals? Does it pay to be good?
MAXA.
To kiss--or not to kiss-that seems
to be the most important question of
the day, as evidenced by the number of
letters received from girls living in all
parts of the country. One of the girls
writes: IF a girl permits man to
kiss her-he never comes back. And
if she doesn't-he never comes back,
so what are we going to do?'
Now the question is--whose fault is
it if her statement is truef Does the
fault lie with the men for demanding
it-or with the girls for permitting
it am inclined to think men demand
it because the majority of girls grant
it--and when they go out with one
who will not permit it-well, they
simply do not go back. Personally, |
do not believe that anything in the
world is worth sacrificing of self-re-
spect and the high ideals which Maxa
evidently holds. But it is quite easy
to understand why some girls who
started out with the same high ideals
soon lost them. OF course, they want
I to go out, and the weaker ones sacri-
flee their ideals for good time, be-
cause they want to dance, see. shows
they want all the other things that
constitute a good time while they are
young, and they haven't the will-powei
