(I) Would you kindly print a list of interesting books for a girl 15 years of age? (2) I have a great number of friends. They all think I am about 17 or 18 years old. Shall I tell them my correct age? I am five feet eleven Inches in height and and weigh one hundred and twenty-tw- o one half pounds. What type of dress can I wear best? Wishing you success, and hoping I may call again, I remain a LONESOME GIRL, Utah. Why so timid, Lonsome Gtrl? The corner Is for you, and everyone who has a question to ask or an inquiry to make, so do not hesitate or feel timid. (1) I am sure you will find any of the following books both Interesting and Instructive: Heart of Isabel Carleton, by Margaret E. Ashmun; by Beth B. Gilchrist; When Patty Went to College, by Jean Web"Caroline at College and Then ster: Came Caroline by Lila H. Richards; Smiles and "Smiling Ruth by Elliot H. Robinson. (2) Why such a lonesome name when you have so many friends? Of course If anyone Is . enough to ask you directly what your age Is, you should not hesitate to tell your correct age. Tou are unusually tall, and the prevailing style of long waist and full skirt seems to have been designed especially for you, with the bands, ruffles and circular flounces on skirt making a becoming trimming, breaking the long, straight People from all over the United States standing in line just before funeral procession passed through the streets to cemetery, where Hardings body now reposes In vault line. Dear Miss Brooks: I have written to your corner before. The answer I received proved to be so Coolidge and Wife Arrive in Marion satisfactory that I am writing again. (1) Is a girl of 14 too young to wear earrings and use paint and powder (2) Is a girl at this age too young to go to night dances? Wishing you lots of fun and success In your work, I am, fts ever LITTLE BLACK ME, Utah. I am surely glad you were pleased with your former answers, my dear. (1) Of course a4aby could paint and powder and wear earings, but would you admire one arrayed In this manner? To my personal way of thinking, they would look alomst as much out of place on a girl of fourteen. And why should she wish to use paint and powder? If a girl this age is normal and healthy her conplexion Is the envy of her elders who try to gain a complexion as nearly like hers as they can, by using artificial means; and if her complexion is aot good, paint and powder will only make It worse. (2) I would say much too young to go to public dances either day or night. 1 do have lots of fun. Little Black Me, "but success well, it Ts not so easy. Tour letter was mailed as directed.

Dsar Miss Brooks: I have visited your corner and wish to thank you for the advice you have given me. (1) Is It proper for a girl to answer a boys letter when they have never seen one another and he has secured her address from one of her pals? (2) I was born February 21, 1907.

(2) Tour colors are said by the oracle to be pink, blue and Nile green. Dear Miss Brooks: Thank you for the splendid answers you gave me to my other letter. May I enter again? (1) Tou always say in your answers to other girls that tfcpy should not go to public dances. I live In a country town and in all the country towns I have ever been In, we have always gone to the public dances. We sometimes go just a crowd of girls' I have been reading Just Between Tou and Me for some time and find some very good Information and advice. I have a question If It isn't any bother to you. (1) Am I out of style because I havent my hair bobbed, most of the their hair bobbed, but there girls have are still some who havent. My mother doesnt want me to cut mine. Some of my girl grlends want me to cut my hair and the others say they wish theirs was long again and tell me what ever I do not to cut it. Which do you think is th best? I am sixteen years of age. you some time, I Hoping I may help A READER in Utah. remain No trouble at all. No, dear, you are not out of style because your hair la not bobbed. The very fact that your tf we havent a partner. All the girls We hardly know what It la to go to a private dance. The dance; we go to are the kind where everyone knows everyone else, and anyway we have our regular dancers that are In our own crowd. Now, Miss Brdoks, do you think It Improper to go to these dances? Tou must remember that our dances are not like the city dances where one does not know every one present. Will you please give me your opinion - on this subject? (2) I read some place that olive oil was good for the eye lashes, to make them long and curly. Is this treatment Injurious to the eyes? Thanking yoi in advance, I remain your true admirer, ALICE, Millard County, UL Tou are Indeed most weloome, Alice. (1) Perhaps I have not stated as often as I should in my answers regarding the public dance, that there are exceptions to all rules, and In all cases. Nevertheless It Is very true, and applies to every subject under discussion. I very well know that some girls can go to almost any place and seem Instinctively to l(now how to conduct themselves in order to command the respect of everyone present. Tou are doubtless one of these girls, and to these the undesirable element so often present at a public affair does not enter as a factor. I can readily understand also, how In the very small town everyone knows everyone else and the dance is just a nice, social gathering. But not all towns are small enough for this, and while every town of whatever size has its crowds who chum together, there Is always some who look upon the public dance as a free for all place to mix, regardless of whether they are all acquainted or not. To these it means simply a place to have a good time in their own way. Many girls do not seem to be quite sure that they should not dance with everyone who invites them to do so, and this first false step makes on opening for careless and Indifferent treatment thereafter by those Inclined to do so. My remedy for. these conditions would not be so much In condemning and doing away with the public dance by having the girls remain away, as it would be to refine and raise its standard. This could be accomplished to a great extent by the parents and elder members of the 'family attending, indicating by their presence their Interest in seeing to it that their girls (and boys) were receiving courteous treatment, and more Important still see to it that It disbanded at a reasonable hour, I hope the above will make It clear to you why I advise against the public dance.
