I am not bad looking, but 1
don't seem to meet any of the
nice young men. My girl friends
tell me I'm too old-faShioned

smoke. l find most of my en-
joyment in going to shows and
spending evenings at home in
friendly conversation, but it
seems the boys nowadays don't
want that kind Of fun.
am employed in a business
office, and see the same people
every day. Clubs don't interest
me much either. How does one
go about meeting nice young
men? LONELY HEART.
This may seem a little un-
sympathetic to you, my dear,
but believe part of your trouble
is your own aloofnesS. Most
people, nowadays, are responsive
to good nature and a cheerful
frame Of mind. The world is
full of gay young folks who
don't even think of drinking or
Smoking, or leading what is
called a wild" life. If you're

She Claims

Dear Miss Fairfax:
The girl I'm in love with, and
who broke up with me to go

ing me lot of worry. She
claims I'm too good for her, and
that ought to find a girl who
is more my ideal. But 1 tell her
that 1 want to start all over

it over, but l love her so much
l can't get her out of my mind.
ARTHUR.
Why does this girl think you're
too good for her? Is she of the
wild type, or is it just her excuse
to keep you at a distance, as she
doesn't want to get back on the

your problem. If she really is
