Now, what do you folks think of
THAT one? Emperor" I am going
to answer your questions, although
you must have been slightly goofy
when you wrote 'em! In the first
place, if I wrote even one-third of
what I see and know, lot of people
would have to leave town in a hurry,
and in the second place, l haven't
Winchell's nerve. AS to that query
about my hair getting lighter, / will
say-don't ask idiotic questions. And
as to my actions in a revolving door
may tell you that l always have a
tendency to slaughter people who
poke along when going through sucL
doors. The baby in the compartment
in front of me had evidently stopped
to wait for streetcar, so I just natu-
rally hurried things up bit. Buddy,
you would be surprised how college
girls act at timesD Nice of you to
like my column, and by all meanl
let me know who you are because
just can't place you. In fact, though
| knew everybody.
To. DON BONAPARTE: Send your
Hamline credits to The Registrar,
University Of Minnesota, and ask him
for the information about the Jour
nalism school which you wish to know.
/ haven't felt one bit like even try
ing to write the column this week,
and somehow / just can't crowd
through all the pile Of writing l have
here, so I will have to let it go until
next week. I think most of you
young people will understand.

managing to survive without his royal
presence. If he is allowed to dis
cover for himself what the girl really
is, he will be convinced for good. He
isn't the first man who has been taken
in by "baby talk and that innocent
stuff" When some woman pulls that,
she is appealing to male egotism
which makes men want to protect and
keep the poor little dear from what
ever it is they are afraid the dame
will be frightened by! That clinging
vine attitude makes males feel that
they are so strong and useful, but
even the dunbest brothers sicken of
it after while. And as far as her
making remarks goes, I would say
the best way to squelch her, is to
completely ignore what she says. If
you look all mad and squeamish,
she'll know she is getting your goat,
so just give the little cat the cold
shoulder entirely. Act as if she
weren't even there! Remember, just
let the boy friend get his fill of baby
talk and ga-ga hooey, and he'll find
out for himself that it is just pose.
If you are only in high school, I don't
see why you should be worrying about
ONE boy, anyhow. If you start Civ
ing your attentions to other fellows,
you may find some one even nicer.
Did you ever think of that? Write
again and let me know how things
come out!
The second letter comes from Min
neapolis, and it reads:
Ny dear Miss Dodson:
wonder if you are very interested
to know the identity of the young
lady who is writing Mr.. Shamwell?
If so, l am sure she will reveal
herself to you some time in the near
future.
Yours truly,
The Mystery Lady.
My goodness, isn't that something?
Although l am not dying of curiosity,
l wouldn't mind knowing the identity
of the note-writer. I have my ideas
who it is, anyway. And incidentally,
the writing in the letter looks more
than slightly familiar. Wonder if I
haven't seen it in certain note book
out on the campus, Ell?
The third letter comes also from
Minneapolis, and is the most amazing
of the three, because it makes me be-
lieve the writer has an uncanny
knowledge of my movements! The
writer of the letter is a male indi-
vidual who signs himself, emperor
