corner and would like to ask you a puzzling question Is it all right for a boy to take a girl of sixteen to a party danclor dance or show without a grown person along with them I 1 remain your true friend TOOTS of no dear I 1 unreservedly take the stand that it la Is not proper for young girls of sixteen under or over a few years to go to any public place of entertainment while this form of etiquette la Is not generally observed in ilk our western states it la Is nevertheless erth eless a breach of rood good form to neglect it it if parents were more careful in this respect there would he be less cause for regret later on I 1 am quite sure this Is not a precaution taken because they question the boys and girls ability or willingness to conduct themselves properly but Is simply a matter of rood good breeding and indicates thought and care on the part of the parents for illustration have you not noticed that the little eb children ildren whose parents seldom trouble themselves about where they aro are what they are doing who they are with and who are allowed to go about at all hours of the day and oftentimes night develop rough ways and manners unloving and unlovable dispositions and are treated by everyone carelessly and indifferently because in the home where tile the foundation and basla basis of training and char acter building properly begin there seems to be indifference and this radiates 0 to o everyone with whom they come in contact or associate with this applies to theelder the older child as aswell well I 1 say this la in the general rule there are exceptions of course there are persons who no matter what the environment and training Is in or has been retain the priceless jewel of refinement and beauta of character through it all but these are ara comparatively rare cases canon so you see the girl whose friends know her parents paren to and the girl herself take this care and ana precaution naturally use the same protection for her when she is in their care dear miss brooks please may I 1 join your corner between you and me ale I 1 have two questions A 1 would like to know 1 what Is americas national flower 3 2 when our natio national

almost a year I 1 am am a young youn man of le seventeen ven teen very popular among the fa fair sox aex 3 of this town and am airi fond of i amusements especially bake basketball iball ana an dancing I 1 am also considered one the best beat violinists in this vicinity ana an bad expect act to make quite a career for m my self as a violinist violin st the question which I 1 mentioned Is this thero there Is a young youn lady of sixteen in this school of whom nho I 1 am very fondi sometimes she KOIT q quite alte attentive to mf me but at other bolh times she Is indifferent iafet parents are very strict and forbid her to receive c e I 1 v e the attentions of the young men however the they Y seem beem to bo be in tavor favor of our friendship which on my part has ha already ripened into love how cat can I 1 tell whether she aha returns my warm regard or if she ahe really Is indifferent I 1 am greatly concerned over this matter mattar and will avill be grateful for your prompt u advice sincerely SENATOR 9 ida my dear senator the only way you can find out anything with absolute absolu lt certainty Is to wade right in and fand out in your case the girl would seem to be about the only one who can civo you a satisfying answer anle unless yo yoa 12 consult the parents which be b less satisfactory I 1 am am quite sure she must be d e ait i lady if sh sho has parents who advise adels tind and care cala for her so 0 o sensibly when she has advanced further in school they the will probably consent to her receiving attentions tent ions iono from boys but senator lei let us coasin reason together for a moment befort before you put this question to her proy providing iding you should suppose she ahe should tell you she loved you supposing you both understood anything about love lova what then it will be a number of years before you can properly caro care for a wife for there are years of hard study before you if you expect to make il a place for yourself with the violin would it bo be right to bind her and yourself by an engagement for such a long time almet why not go on as am you are a while just being good friends and pals leaving you both free to have other friends remember sixteen and seventeen is 1 very young ato to become engaged and horror hor sl what it 1 you or she should find someone else you thought you loved love d after a few more dearal years an engagement gAgo ga ment Is sometimes a very serious thing and not lightly broken now senator Fewel othes has tile tho foregoing c caused to see see things daffe differently I 1 if f so s let me hear from you dear miss al iss brooks broo ke I 1 have enjoyed your corner for fo reome some time and would like you to answer some borne questions for me 1 1 I was born on novt novi 23 what Is my
