Bring your love aualrs 10 Jane JORDAN
who will guide you with common sense
advice.
Dear Jane Jordan-Sadly sit
in my room and wipe the tears
from my eyes and try to write the
biggest tragedy of my life. A ro-
nance of joy, sorrow, and even
tragedy has come to an end, A
girl for whom l did everything
has Tilted me and left me an out
cast among my friends, whom l
gave up for her. A girl who even
threatened to take her life be-
cause l tried to choose my friends
instead of being true to her.
She made all kinds of promises
and VOWS that she would stick
through everything and that we
never would part. I did things
for her that l won't mention, hut
anyway l was a real pal and
sweetheart to her. Then she start
ed her dirt toward me in every
way that she could and finally left
me.
In my last week with her, I met
a girl who is her superior in looks
and seems to be a real girl. Each
time I am with her, start think
ing of this other girl and my
evenings are blue. I'll never for
get my former girl. She's on my
mind continually.
l have a chance to leave home
and perhaps find friends where
I'm going. Should l trust this
new girl, or go ahead making new
friends, trusting that the first
girl will come back to me, for no
other will take her place in my
life. need your help. I always
will contend that it is not always
a woman who pays
LONESOME CROW.
Dear Lonesome Crow-Men have
died and worms have eaten them,
but not for love! Instead of fearing
that you never will trust another
girl, watch sharp that some clever
little Eve doesn't Nltch you on the
rebound, before you have time to
realize what has happened.
A person who has been diSap-
pointed in love sometimes builds up
a great myth about the undying
character of his love. He deceives
himself into believing that his love
is eternal, because he hasn't the
courage to adventure again. He
glorifies his former love to avoid the
danger of a new attachment.
You must avoid this pitfall with
all the energy you possess. All girls
aren't gay deceiverS, just because
one fell short Of the mark A change
of scene might be an excellent thing
for you at this point. I haven't the
slightest idea whether the second
girl is worthy or not. Judge her on
her own merits and do not let your
opinion be colored by your painful
experience with the other one.

Dear Jane Jordan-I am almost
Is and very much in love with a
boy who is nearly %. At first my
folks thought the sun rose and
set in him, and then. as usual,
my mother suspected that I liked
him and turned against him. Now
when he comes after me she won't
even speak to him, and she even
disapproveS of his bringing me
home from school.
l try to understand her, since
she is so old (63), but it seems
like something could be done. I
think she is afraid I don't love
her any more and care too much
for him. do love him SO. He
is such a gentleman and takes
me TO so many nice places.
My father walked in the room
one night when he was kissing
me, and in no time all sorts of
weird tales came from it. You
see, I am living in an entirely
different age and they just sim
ply can't understand the modern
ways, I guess.
I have been lying to my mother
and sneaking out to be with him.
I've tried to make her see things
my way. but she just can't. Per-
haps you understand older peo-
pie better than I do and can tell
me what to do. WORRIED.
Dear Worried-Unfortunately your
letter states only one side of the
case, and this makes it hard for me
to look into your parents motives.
You seem to think that your mother
dislikes the boy because she is jeal-
Gus of your love. If this were the
case. she wouldn't have liked him in
the first place.
She would have been just as jeal-
Gus of your original attraction to-
ward him as she has seemed to be
later. Something happened to
her attitude toward the
young man. Search your mind and
find out what it is.
1t always has been difficult for the
