ing and true friendships. Why, many
married people first met at public
dances!
Comment: We have no doubt that
many worthwhile friendships have
been made in this way. The second
statement Is unquestionably true,
but it isn't a very good argument.
Perhaps that's one of the things
that's wrong with lot of marriages.
4. Boys do have the same respect
for girls they meet at skating rinks.
in spite Of any statement to the
contrary.
Comment: Well accept your word
that you. as an individual. do. But
If that's true of all boys, why do
you admit that a girl shouldn't let
fellow whom she has just met in
this way, take her home? Shed
have no hesitation in doing so If she
had met the boy in a conventional
way. at party given by one Of her
friends. We think your argument
here is at least open to doubt. It
depends entirely on the boy.
5. Boys and girls don't go to rinks
with the idea of a pickup adventure
in mind.
Comment: Well agree that nine
out of ten of them don't. But you
can't ignore the tenth.
g. It's perfectly possible to skate
with a strange girl or fellow at
rink. and not let the acquaintance
60 any further.
Comment: Admitted. But If 1t
doesn't go any further, how are
those friendships going to develop?
Z. Skating with strangers is
good way for girl to meet people
and overcome bashfulness.
Comment: A really bashful girl
wouldn't even attempt 10 do so, and
if she did. her doubts about the
whole situa ton would only make her
bashfulness worse.
8. What are boys and girls sup
posed to do at Kinks? Act high-hat
and have a miserable time?
Comment: There's nothing to
keep them from going with. and
skating with, their dates. their
friends of the same sex or a crowd
g. just how are fellows and girls
In city supposed to make new
friends?
Comment: There you've hit the
real problem, which we'll discuss
more fully in our next column. But
first. we'd like to point out one thing
that all you fellows Overlooked in
your letters to us. In writing our
original column on this subject. We
were approaching the problem from
the girls point of view
It's unquestionably convenient for
you fellows to be able to go to
rink at any time. pay only your own
admission. and find plenty of good
skating companions just for the ask
ing. But as long as you can do that
why should you bother to take a
girl?
Now. what most girls want is le-
gitimate friendships with nice boys
boys who will think enough Of
them to ask them for dates, not just
meet them at public rink. And
We still don't think the girls are
helping their own cause any by
making it so easy for you fellows
to enjoy yourselves, without assum-
ing any responsibility. They're just
spelling you!
But don't go way! Well have

AnsWer-Your mothers ideas
about old maids are virtually pre-
historic They belong to the days
when girls married at Is and 16 be-
cause their parents were anxious to
wish their support off on husband
and when it was considered a reflec-
ton on woman to be an old maid
because it showed that she was so
unattractive there We're no takers.
But the conditions of modern life
have changed the whole point of
view about women and marriage.
Now we do not think that girl
should even consider marriage be-
fore she is 20. because we do not
think that until she is adult and
her own tastes and character formed
that she is capable of choosing a
life mate of whom she will not tire.
Also. we think that she should
have her play time and be satisfied
with parties and dates and ready to
settle down before she marries.
There is no reason why a girl who
makes her own bread and butter and
silk stockings should be hurried into
marriage as her dependent forebears
were. She is an asset to her family
instead of liability Like the Irish
mans pig, the unmarried daughter
is the gentleman who pays the rent
in many home and provides mother
with the comforts she wouldn't have
but for her.
AS for there being any stigma at
tached to a woman not marrying,
that theory has gone with the wind
