not be impatient about this, as flu
ture clothing expenses will be all
his after the marriage.
@. Is it all right to partake OF
fried chicken with the fingers?
A.. This is all right at picnics
and such affairs, but at the din
ner table the knife & fork should
be used.
@. Should a girl smoke her own
cigarettes when going out with
a young man, or should she smoke
