I hope this will help you though I find I have given only nine reasons. Perhaps you can furnish the tenth. Dear Miss Brooks: I have been reading your corner and as you have helped others I thought may be you could answer my questions. When walking along with a boy is- it proper for the girl to take the boy's arm, or the hoy to take the girl's arm ?

When an engaged girl is embroidering embroider-ing her linen should she put herjs"" tials as they now are, or as they be after she is married? Than you sincerely, I am, yours truly, LUCILE, Cove, A girl should always take a I arm, never the reverse.
