Tor sayl when these boy
crazy fools make . play for
our boy friends? We are all
trying to behave like
"ladies" but these other
girls are having all the
fun! Do we just have 70
sit and take &c?
SARAH AND FRIENDS.
You ask, "What can nice
girls do?" Well. you can
start by being smart girls,
too, and understanding the
situation as 1t really is.
Competition for the attention
Of attractive dating partners
has been going on since the
human race began. Y these
boys were not attractive to
others, the chances are you
wouldn't like them either!
Remember that the boys
are largely to blame for your
problem. They could say no
and they wouldn't have to be
rude to do it. They could al
ways have some excuse for
refusing these come-on invi-
tations If they really wanted
to.
My advice is to stop worry
ing about the boy-craZy girls
and concentrate instead on
the boys. Make them realize
you older girls are better
dates. You should have more
poise, more conversational
ability and more dating ex-
perience, which means you
should be able to get along
better with boys than these
younger girls. At your age
you have learned. too. that
the average boy might be
temporarily interested but
doesn't really like boy-crazy
girls.

Dear Mrs. Kicker:
1 am q 15-year-Old girl
and have n 17-year-old
brother who Is usually
fairly cOnsiderate. My
problem Is that when his
friends are here he treats
me like dirt. ] am friendly
with lots Of boys around
my age but my brother
has = few really nice
friends / would like to
know better. But how can
they like me IL they see how
my brother treats me?
I've asked him not TO pick
on me so much when his
friends are around but that
just seemed TO make things
worse. My parents have also
mentioned this to him but
it goes in one ear and out
the other. LOIS.
I think your problem can
and should be solved by your
parents. While most brothers
and sisters do not get along
well all the time. your brother
should be mannerly and con-
siderate Of you in front Of
others. OF course. you should
not do things to irritate him.
either. In other words, don't
make a nuisance of yourself
by hanging around too closely
when his friends come to see
him.
