better to go to the dance properly chaperOned than alone If you just must go dears and if It father and rot mother er feel It Is all an right Personally I would o id advise that your our recreation be ba different than this 3 An exchange of letters CAN be both interesting and educational educational girls but see to it they are of this nature or otherwise they will only be another medium of
