worthy contribution In jn the following e we quote o or 01 briefly sketch the thought in som some of the discussion letters letter This Thi w we shall do for a day or so 10 until al al material now on

happy medium and a single standard of for men and women Quoting from fro her letter I have been to both private an anc and public dances dance always escorted o or oi properly chaperoned and I have hav never seen sen things carried to such sucha disgusting extent at t the public places place as at the private dances I Igo go to frat parties partie and U dances dance with people considered Salt Lake Lakei betters beters I have never seen an in intoxicated intoxicated in person remain on th thi the dance floor in a public hall because they are usually placed in the hand hands of the law but at the private dance dances they can remain and pass pas out an anc and finally a physician is ia summoned t to tc bring them out of it i. i I have never neve neverseen seen young girls sitting on benche benches I with wih their legs crossed smoking cig aret by the package in a public dance hall If I they do these things thing it i is not nt in the f face of the public but after they leave the hall hail anif an anc and if the boys know this they mus must musi have been Jh there re for other purpose pUrpose than to lo dance I have alway always thought that if f a boy cared for a girl enough to marry her he owed her as much respect as she owed him Miss iss Blair don't dont think that I 1 an am upholding the little dance hall girls because I am not I do not believe in such a thing as a girls going t to tc the these e places every night I dont don't think they go there to be or to do anything bad but just jus plea pleasure ure seeking until they mee meet some of these good boys who ar are arc going home to marry the good girls The sooner the girl will stand b by her own sex the sooner the boy wil wi stand by them In my opinion there are extreme in all cases politics religion fashion fashion fash ion business etc And I dont don't that all the girls girl who go to these public dance halls hals go there with wih th the thc purpose of branding themselves with Im here because I want tibe ti tc to tobe be made cheap or Somebody anybody anybody any body take me mc home home I know girls girl who go to these places occasionally in crowds or in couples who do no nogo not go to be brought home They al always always at- at ways dance with the b boys ys they know kno and come home the same way they the theY went because the boys know then them and also know that they would wan
