good looking but I do try to be
attractive and decent. For some
reason can't get many friends
and l wonder if ! should leave
town?
Ans: Good looks are an attri-
butte to any girl but you are in
clined to put too much emphasis
on it. A gay, enthusiastic per-
scnality will attract more friends
than a girl who has beauty alone.
You may not have the looks but
you can certainly acquire a
sparkling personality. Dress in
d manner to bring out your best
points. Take decided interest
in everything around you. :. j.
sports, social, church and club
life. Be the most energetic and
zestful person in your group. It
won't be long until many eyes
are focused IN your direction.
B. HI love a service man
who has just returned from over
seas. / have known him for
long time. He doesn't know how
feel. He flirts with me and
both my sisters and ] want to
know what to do.
Ans: He's interested but is
far from committing himself to
any one girl just yet. Play your
cards scitllfully. keep him
guessing to some extent. :. let him
know that you are interested but
not over anxious. Girls have
methods of coaxing boys to date
them without the fellow himself
detecting just how it happened.
Use your charm.

ceivlng my allotment regularly.
! live in a three room apartment
and have been going to Business
College and now have my diplo-
ma, My problem is money. l
do not have any. | nave tried to
save but l can't. | definitely do
not give my money to men. |
have had a job and couldn't save
any money then. | don't want
to give up m apartment now that
my husband is coming home as
! have it fixed up like ! want it.
Tell me what to do as | am plenty
worried.
Ans: At the present it requires
every penny of your allotment to
live in the style of your choice.
If you want to work it would not
require any more money for you
to live. But, you could live on
your allotment and bank every
penny of your earnings and in this
way you could soon accumulate
some money. 1t would do away
with your hours of leisure and
pleasures but it would be a nice
thing to show your husband that
you were willing to make an eff
fort to help him get on his feet
when he returns. Get a job and
60 to work right away. Learn to
resist the temptation of spending
every cent that comes into your
hands.

If RABBIT damage to your
Victory garden in the past has
given you high blood pressure,
perhaps you can rid yourself Of
this pcsky nuisance by trying
kindness instead Of sterner meas
ures. The kindness in this case
will consist of planting edible soy
beans as a border enclosing your
vegetable garden. The rabbits love
soybeans so much that they will
not even bother to look at the
rest of the young vegetables in
your garden. Many gardeners have
tried this soybean border as a
rabbit barrier, and one and all
report that II really works. A Vic
