10 Kiss or Not to Kiss

Dear Miss Lee: am sixteen years old
and 1 know I'm too young to love or care
anything about it. But a young man that
has known me for several wears loves me
know this by his actions and all. But
care nothing FOR him except as friend
with boys-just be friendly with. them all
But this young man persists in his. atten-
TORS. How can l tell him my feelings
without hurting him?
Is Is all right for a girl to refuse to kiss
a boy goodnight when he brings her home
I never have. but my refusais sometimes
hurt them One boy told me when he
took a girl home time or two and she
still. refused to kiss him that she could
YOU think? w. s.
Your mother is very wise. She
has no desire to deprive you of the
companionship of boys, but she
wants to keep this companionship
on a friendly basis, which is right
for your age. If this is properly
explained to the young man who
persists in his attentions then I see
no occasion for hurt feelings.
You are entirely right to postpone
any experiences in love, however
slight, until you have the wisdom
and experience to cope with it. Go
home by yourself, if you have to,
and do not take what boys say too
seriously.

Too Early for a Diamond?

Dear Miss Lee: am engaged to marry
the most wNndeTfu nsT man in the W9Td
Both grandmas and my father and mother
think the same way, He, is not one OF
these slick-haired sheiks iike most girls &c
hard. He is clean in every way. and is
lots Of fun.
odnsr q Ten and onh am W w wa hs ses
ried till about two years from. now, He
wants to give me a diamond this Christ
H too soon mot to Start ao wearing a diamonda
mother about It. ALICE.
AS a rule I am very much opposed
to early marriages, although I a. 4.
obliged to admit that they some
times turn out well. When they do,
I am inclined to think that it is
somewhat of an accident, because
youngsters of your age are unde-
veloped. In ten years from now
your perfect boy may not appeal to
you at all.
My best advice to you is not to
think of marriage at this time, Ind
to avoid the symbol Of it. Go On
with your friendship with this clean,
admirable boy, and if it endures,
then marry him, by al lmeans. But
it seems to me that you had better
keep on a friendship basis for a
little while yet.
However, I may be wrong. Talk
it over with your mother. She
knows both you and your young
man better than I do, and can give
you better advice.

Thinnble Nears
Oblivion

BIZ United Press
HAMMOND, Ind, Nov. 1.-THE
thimble is following the hairpin
into obscurity. Hammond depart
ment store officials report. Pur-
chase of thimbles has decreased
slowly but steadily during the last
twenty years, they say, until now
a sale is an event at any store.
What with the advent of cleo
trio sewing machines, washing
machines, tailor made clothes and
other modern necessities" the
thimble has fallen from it's former
high estate as a general utility
article to a position in which it
is now more of a museum relic
than the almost indispensable
utensil it was in grandmother's
time.
Folks still may recall how
Grandma, besides using her big
gold thinble f-r pushing needles
through the homespun cloth of
that time, employed it cut hole.
for doughnuts, as curling iron,
as a pacifier, ard for any num-
Der of other uses, but when they
go into store in an effort to buy
the once-famous article, the clerk
may hesitate, and then ask: ga
thimble? What is that, MADAME.

Legion AuxiHary
Chief ADVOCATES
Universal Draft

TWENTY-FIVE thousand new mil
lionaires were created by the world
war" said Mrs. Irene Mcintyre
Walbridge, newly elected national
president of the American Legion
Auxiliary, who arrived in Indian
apolis Tuesday.
1.-The new universal draft would
wipe out such profit from war, and
make sacrificely everybody newt
able. Prevention of selfish war is
the best peace insurance. Our major
aim for the coming year is to put
the whole force of the Legion and
the Auxiliary back of this measure
to see that it is made into a law
in the next Congress"
Points To Growth
Mrs. Walbridge spoke of the great
increase in power of the legion
during the past two years. THE
war is now ten years off," she said.
1.-THE boys who fought are now men
and taking their places in business
and in public affairs. The auxiliary
is composed of almost 100000
women voters and each woman is
a natural center for influence in
her own community. We shall con-
tinue to work hard for membership,
not for the purpose of piling up
numbers and dollars, but to in
crease our capacity for service"
The Paris convention gave the
legion an enviable place in the
public interest, and Mrs. Walbridge
thinks that it has real problem
before it to retain this interest now
that the stimulus of the convention
is removed.
France gave us the warmest
welcome" she said. 1--WE were re-
ceived everywhere with tears and
laughter. Official italy received us
well, but the populace did not warm
up to us until just before our de-
parture when they gave us the most
outstanding farewell of our trip"
Favored by Musso1ini
Mrs. Walbridge had arranged an
AAiVSA 'ACW WlCI1 MuSSOllIll, UuC OH L0e
day of her appointment, he post
poned it to attend the christening
OF his son. MuSSolini has now
turned over suite of rooms in
Rome for the use of the American
Legion, which is a consideration not
shown other foreigners.
Mrs. Walbridge says the European
resent the rich American tourist
whom he feels fattened off the war,
but has a different feeling entirely
for the American who was his com
rade in arms.
"The auxiliary plans to continue
the work already begun during the
coming year." she said. "Last year
we stressed community service. We
have done good work in child well
fare and rehabilitating the ex-
service man and his family. We feel
that the Legion should always lead
in national defense. These, and
other projects are continuous and
will always be before the Auxiliary"

Perfume Uses
BY HEDDA HOYT
United Press Fashion Editor

United Press Fashion EDITOR
PARIS, Nov. 2.-Paris has per-
fumes for day wear, for evening
wear, for golf and for bathing.
There are perfumes for brunets, for
Titians, for blondes and for dark
haired women. Most of the pop
ular customers make their own
perfumes. Some odors are made
especiallyfor certain gowns. One
can even have a specific perfume
made for ones self. But no self
respecting French woman would en-
trust such a matter to the hands
of a perfumer. She prefers to
make her own blends, and woe to
the friend who dares ask her the
mixture of her perfumes.
Years to Find Scent
Perfume to the French woman
suggests mystery. AS a rule, she
will wear the same perfume for
years. 1t may be blending of FIVE
or six odors which she has taken
years to find.
First, one decides whether
flower odor or an Oriental odor is
best suited to ones personality. AS
a rule, the brunei prefers Oriental
odors, while blondes prefer daintier
flower odors. The matter Of blend
ing is up to the individual. One
Partisan told me very confidentially
that she combined all of the lily
odorS into one mixture.
Perfumes Match Gowns
"Of course, some women with
changing moods like TO have many
varities of perfume" said O WELL
known perfumer. "That is why
each season two or three new odors
are brought out by each firm deal
ing in perfumes. Certain CUSTOM
ers match each gown with a spe-
cial perfume. For instance, a strong
Oriental perfume is not the thing
for the simple, youthful sportsfrock.
One prefers, for this type of frock,
an odor of spring flowers or a faint
leafy odor of the fall months"
No woman these days would think
OF wearing violet perfume for all
occasions. Yet there was a day
when this perfume was considered
the only one for women of refine
ment. Today milady has her dresser
strewn with bottles of all the va
riouS odors If she's up-to-the-m min
ute. She may wear a different per-
fume with each frock, or may amuse
herself by blending them to har-
monte with her various moods. It
is quite ture that the French woman
spends more for perfume in a sea-
son than she does for bonnets.

The lovers kiss is the one under
consideration, and for very good
reasons it does not belong to the
adolescent period of life. At this
age the young are mentally imma-
ture and unprepared to cope with
mature emotions. 1t is better then,
to avoid that which tends to slim
ulate such emotions.
Every period in life has it's pleas
ures. It is a grave mistake for youth
to hasten into situations which re-
quire the adult viewpoint for intelli-
ligent handling.
In mathematics we do not try to
learn the back part of the arithme-
tic first, but solve each problem
according to it's place in the book.
Life is much easier to live if we
learn the simple lessons first, and do
not attempt to solve its more COM
plicated propositions before we have
been prepared for them by prelim-
mary experiences.

played "Postoffice" or any of the kissing
games. Now / am going to a. party, and
I wish you would please print how to
p-"' pO MADGE.
have never played postoffice my
self, but inquiry among my young
friends reveals that it is played as
follows:
A postmaster" is appointed. He
calls a boy into the hall whose priv
ilege it is to say that he has a
'1etter" for some girl in the party
When she steps into the hall tie
letter is delivered in the form of a
kiss.
It is then her turn to call some
boy into the hall to receive a
"letter" and so on all evening, ad
