Contrary Mary. Jane. Sally,
Sue and Flora, how does your
garden of romance grow? .
II you want every blossom TO
binorn. pull out the weeds occa-
slonally, and give your Johnny
-and your William fighting
chance.
: Many a girl has lost devoted
bcau because she enjoyed being
epntrary.
Take for insance a very pretty
svdhcad with saucer-size blue
.ponod 10 her handsome date who
~~rycs When asked what had hap
MAS booked for the big cotillion,
--si,e- said Hes the most selfish,
INT The most selfish boy I've ever
,-ineL Tim glad found out"
Pressed for the details, she ex-
planned that after a movie the
young gallant had taken his petu-
liant beauty TO a local eatery. She
had been very. but very impress
ed. by his selection of the incest
place in town, had taken into con-
sideration that he had only an
after-school job which paid him
off virtually in bright green polly
seeds. and decided Immediately
that she would have only milk
and cinnamon toast at his ex--
pcnse.
.Thereupon. the young man
tried 10 persuade her to have
something more substantial, but
she didn't, and as she says, "be-
fng that magnanimous made me
feel like a positively wonderful
character because / really was
starving"
Everything was moonlight and
stardust until her young man or
dered for himself sirloin steak,
fried potatoes and smothered on
ions, whereupon his fine feather
ed date decided she would but
nibble at her toast and teach him
a lesson. Obviously, he didn't
ever. notice, increasing her wrath.
She, says. ANY young man so in
considerable is just downright sell
fish"
AS one popular boy says: Girls
never do say exactly what they
mean, that's the trouble with
them. They thrive on gestures"
Boys queried in this respect cite
the following examples of the girl. |
Who -. when offered the salt,
pepper or bread, says help your
seif-first" and then gets miffed |
when he does.
Who /. says "of course, if you |
want 10 listen 10 the ball game go !
ahead" and then sulks because |
he turns off the sweet music and |
tunes into the double header
Who =. turns down his offer to I
bring ice cream and cokes for that /
evening -at-home and then gets |
positively chilly when he asks for |
tf-snack.
Who says don't bother, I'll |
answer the door" and then freezes |
when he doesn't try to beat her
C. IL.
Who when asked if she
would rather go to movie or
take walk, says whatever you
want to do" and then retaliates !
with stony silence when he de- !
cides on the walk.
Who says isn't Jane the
cuteSt girl?" and then gets sus-
picious when he agrees readily.
Who :. 4. says don't hurry over
THIS evening" and then pouts be-
cause he is half-hour later than
usual.
Who !. j.. asks him how he likes
her new hairdo and then resents |
his Il liked il better the other
way |
Z Who asks his opinion about |
~ movie or play and is furious |
Whenshe doesn't share her view
point.
II seems there is no silk cur
tain separating city girls and their |
cppntry cousins. girls are the
same over all the world, accord |
ing 20 the boys. II adds spice to |
their romance 20 be little mar
tyrs.
Bot one thing is sure The first |
girl out of her corner with
ruwn-to-earth new technique will |
win the golden gloves or so
say the boys.
