Dear Miss Grey: I am = young
girl eighteen and in love with .
man old enough TO be my father.
know ! love him but my mother
and father are making an awful
iuss about the whole affair even
though they do know this man and
like him as q friend. They just
don't want him A. a son-in-iaw-
and are forever making fun In
front Of my friends about the old
grandpa I go with.
This man has been married
twice before and mother doesn't
like to have me 90 with him be-
cause he was divorced both times.
I think I am old enough to know
my own mind. however, and know
that love this man. I.w.
How do you know you really
love him! You are pretty young
for that knowledge and many girls
are changing their minds about
this same matter every day. You
had better listen to your mother
and father for q while at least.
II this man is old enough to be
your father. II stands to reason
that the day will come when he
looks like an old man compared to
the handsome young chaps your
own are.
