Forget Her

Dear Miss Lee I am a man 81 years
of age. and my cousin came to our house
for her vacation and now can't stay
her parents know anything about this be-
cause she is too young. only ID years oid q :
She is leaving us next week, and l want
Der always and know that I will wait for
her until she is old enough to marry; !
am depending on you to give me your PEST
advice on what to do. h NJ r
If you love this little girl, the
kindest thing you can do is to for
get about marrying her for many
wears to come. She is far too young
to engage herself to you, or even to
be conscious of the fact that some
one is waiting for her. Treat her
as if she were a little sister, but look
for another girl to marry.

must choose a name in keeping with
an infant industry which promises
to rank soon as the sixth industry
in the United States.
Therefore, they voted to scrap the

are the real artists of beauty as ap-
piled to women.

Too Young

Dear Miss Lee: am not allowed to go
with boys at night except once in while.
There is one fellow that am very fond Of.
He acts as if he adoreS me, but once in a
while he acts strange, but never mistreats
me.
and we both know that we are too young
to get serious. I have known him for
wear now and it seems as if / cannot live
without him. Now. don't you think he
cares for me to go with me for that 10 long
without getting smart, or trying to hnrt
young to get very serious?
SWEET SIXTEEN AND SEVENTEEN.
Yes, you are right. At your age
YOU should not be thinking OF love.
It is very nice and entirely right for
you to be friends. Listen to your
parents and they will help you not
to let your feelings run away with
you.
