what would you advise the girls to do 2 I want to learn to dance danco and am nm very bashful What would you advise me rue t to do Yours truly CONSTANT READER Utah glad I am that you overcame your bashfulness enough to write to me mo and send the tho song Thank you much for tor copying It Three e girls after atter the tho same boyl Now girls does this not prove the tho theory that this rovers revers ing the natural order of ot this sort of things tends to drive the object of ot your attentions further from you This young man does not ask what he should do but asks advice for tor tho the girls All he ho asks is to bo be tho the rl right ht which naturally seems to havo have been accorded him that Mm-that that of making overtures to tho the girl ho he admires and admires and tho the more moro difficult it Is to gain her attention tho the moro more he admires and pursues My advice to the girls young man would be bo to let you be bo at peace and turn their attention to some somo boy who is a greater admirer of tion their method of ot gaining a boys boy's attention attention atten atten- than you are or better still cultivate cul cul- cultivate cul- cul a disposition to lot let the boys become interested enough in them to to be for tor tho the attentive to them 2 As bashfulness the tho quickest and surest way to overcome this is I I will it Is la a h habit which robs rob to say of or you many enjoyable times unless over over- come Instead of ties to avoiding opportunities meet people Welcome them and force torce yourself to talk about something every effort du make
