Thank you so much, Dreamy Eyes. (1) The spots you mention are similar to black heads and require the same treatment. Use a good cleansing cream . instead of sqap and water and give them a good steam bath occasionally.

Could you advise something for themtj (2) Is it proper for a girl to write to a boy first, or should the boy write first? (3) When a girl first meets a, boy and he takes her home, is it pro-j per for him to put his arm around her? If he does should she tell him not to? (4) Could you tell me something to, do for my hair? It seems dead and vjll not grow. It is split at the end very bad. Thanking you very kindly, SHORTY, Panguitch, Utah.! If you will send your full name and a stamped envelope I will send you the name of a preparation which will cure your pimples, also for your hair. (2) You should let the boy write first always, my dear. (3) Most surely sure-ly you should tell him not to, and in language which he cannot mistake. He is certainly not showing much respect for you, if he attempts to become so familiar at your first meeting. Don't you think so?

Starting with these princiaJes, by adaptation and improvement of existing exist-ing inventions for detecting electric waves, in 1896 William Marconi, an Anglo-Italian, originated the first long distance wireless telegraph. In December of 1901, he had so improved his apparatus as to be able to signal across the Atlantic. (5) Yes, there is high and low power Radio. High power pow-er is classified as 75 K. W.

Miss Brooks, will you publish in your comer "The Blue Velvet Vel-vet Band?" i I am, your affectionate friend, JERRY, Tin Can Alley, Utah. I have been unable to find any poetry by the title mentioned. Perhaps Per-haps if you would make the third word, The Blue Band, more plain, I could locate it for you. Dear Miss Broeks: I am very interested in "our corner" cor-ner" and hope I am worthy to become be-come a member. Would you please answer an-swer some questions for me? How old should a girl be before going go-ing out with the boys ? Could you tell me some way of reducing re-ducing tny weight? I am 18 and weigh 145 pounds. Your true friend, WONDERING, Moroni, Utah. (1) My dear, a girl should be at least sixteen before going with the boys. While a great many girl nowadays now-adays begin attending public affairs alone or with boys while as young as twelve or thirteen, it is far from proper pro-per or advisable. I do not mean that you should stay at home, but go under the protection of a chaperon. This ia a custom followed by all people of culture cul-ture and refinement. (2) It depends upon your height as well as your age just what you should weigh. If you wish to reduce avoid all sweets and fats in so far as possible. Walk all you possibly can and all other forms of outdoor exercise, and do it daily, for keeping everlastingly at it is the only way we can accomplish anything especially reducing. Dear Miss Brooks: Like others I seek advice. Would you please answer a ffw questions for me. Would you please give me tho address of Rome store for music otwl words as follows: "The Shiek."

I would like you to answer a few for me if it isn't too much bother. 1. How tall is Rudolph Valentino? 2. Where is Carlyle Blackwell? 3. Does Graldine Farrar ever act in the moving pictures and what is her address, and can a picture of her be gotten? ' Thanking you very much, I am, yours truly, CARMEN, Salt Lake City. Thanks, Carmen.

Geral-dine-Farrar has acted in the movies but not at the present time. Her permanent address ia, The Metropolitan Metropoli-tan Opera House, New York City. I know of no place you could get her picture. . v Dear Miss Brooks: I read your corner in the paper and as you are able to help other girls, I wonder if you could help me? Is it all right for a boy to go with a girl that is three years older than himself? (2) What is the age and address of Elmo Lincoln and Eugene O'Brian? Sincerely yours,' BLOND, Twin Falls, Idaho. (1) Yes, it is all right if you are both old enough to be going together at alL (2) Elmo Lincoln was born Feb. 6, 1889, which would make him 33, wouldn't it, and his address is Universal Univer-sal Studios, Universal City, Calif.

Dear Miss Brooks: I read your corner in the paper every ev-ery Friday night, and get much help from the questions others ask you. I've come to yon before and received great help. I guess you remember me. I would like to get the catalog of plays and prices. T. C. T., Payson, Utah. Yes, T. C T., I remember you, and am glad to hear from you again. The catalog of plays has been mailed to you. Dear Miss Brooks: I am a constant reader of "Between You and Me," so am taking the liberty to ask you a few questions myself, as I have found some of your answers very helpful. (1) Is a girl almost 18 years of age too young to be married? mar-ried? (2) How is a good way to entertain en-tertain an intimate boy friend? (3) What is a very good wedding present for a girl pal? (4) And just one more, dear Miss Brooks, is egg white good for the complexion? Hoping my letter will not take up too much space, I remain with heaps of love, ANXIOUS MILLY, Moroni, Utah. Am glad you are receiving help from our corner. (1) Oh, yes, dear, entirely too young to marry. Think it over and see if I am not right Wait at least three or four more ears. (2) It would scarcely be possible pos-sible for me to tell you how to entertain enter-tain your bey friend. There are so many things which suggest themselves them-selves under different circumstances, when people are together, music, conversation, con-versation, and discussion of any mutually mu-tually pleasant topic, or invite a few friends and play cards, make candy or, oh, there are lots of ways to entertain en-tertain and enjoy your friends. Entertaining Enter-taining your boy friends is not so much different, when you consider it, than entertaining any of your other friends. (3) Gifts of table linen, silver, cut glass, pictures, candlesticks or electric appliances applianc-es of all kinds1 are always good and very acceptable to newlyweds. (4) I have never heard of egg white for the complexion. How is it used ? I could not advise you as to its use and effect. Dear Miss Brooks: You have helped so many others with puzzlin-r questions, so I decided to ask you to help me. I have heard if one should pull their eyebrows (what I mean by pullinjr them i3 tc thin them out and make a pood shape) ! that in time you will po blind. Miss Brooks, do you really think this could he possil'e? Also some of the Rirls fiakl they have heard if one should use a preparation ( the eyelashes to larken them that it has a tendency t injure the siyht.
