Box 1545, Salt Lake City. , Dear Miss Brooks : I tMnk you are the most wonderful woman alive and I hope you can help me. I am courting a young lady and am trying to win her heart. Could you publi h the song Why Should I Ever Cry Over You? I want to sing it to her so it will touch her heart and then she will marry me. Wishing you all the tuck in the world, DINTY, Lewiston. Thanks, Mr. Dinty. I accept the compliment and I am sure you mean every word of it. I can readily understand how anyone in your present uplifted mental condition could see things just that way. I wish you the greatest success and cannot believe you will fail to win the young lady's heart. Of course the song you mention might help, but just in the way of a suggestion, dont you think if The Shiek were added to your list there could then be no question as to her utter collapse, or (pardon me) rather, the citadel of her heart would be stormed in such a manner that she could resist you no longer? Thanks also for your good wishes. I am utterly wretched to think I cannot print the words here, but the song can be had in the shops ; so all I can do is to offer to send it post haste upon receipt of price, 30c. Dear Miss Brooks : Will you please answer the following questions for me? (1) Tell me all the names of the places we get rubber and how it is manufactured. (2) Please tell me where we find wool and oil. Thanking you, L. C. Sait Lake City (1) The best and greatest amount of rubber comes from trees on the bank3 of the Amazon River in Brazil. Great amounts come from other parts of South America, Central America, Africa and Asia, and Mexico. Large plantations of the rubber plants are in successful operation in Northern Mexico, the southwestern part of Texas, and even in Arizona. In the manufacture of rubber it is taken in the crude state and run through a set of rollers over which water is flowing to remove some of the impurities. The strips which result from this process are dried and then placed in a mixing machine, where sulphur and occasionally other substances are mixed with it to adapt it to the U3es desired. The prepared rubber, then in the form of sheets, 13 ready for manufacture into the goods for which it is designed. (2) Petroleum is found In all parts of the world, but most of the world's supply comes from India, East Indies, Rumania, Mexico, around the Caspian Sea in Russia, and in the United States, which leads in production. In the United States, Oklahoma leads in production, with California, Texas, Illinois, Louisiana and West Virginia following. Wool is produced in the following countries, Australia producing' the greatest amount, Argentina next, the United States next, then Belgium, New Zealand, British In the United States South Africa, Uraguay.

(1) The flowers for the months, or days in the month have no special significance for an individual born in that month or on that date. The garden anemone is for the particular day of the month on which you were born. The name b taken from the Greek word meaning wind. and these flowers are also known as wind flowers." because they seem to grow best in a breezy location. Following is two lines of poetry which carry out thb Idea : The coy anemone, that neer uncloses Her lips until theyre blown on by the wind. In the language of flowers the meaning of the anemone to "forsaken." November's flower for the 25th is the sephyr-flowe- r, meaning the months are January and expectation, the and colors brown July, the day Tuesday ' From afar, a noted general Had witnessed this brave deed, "Who saved the flag ? Speak up boys, Twas noble, brave indeed. There he lies, sir, said the captain, Hes sinking very fast. Then slowly turned away to hide a tear. The general in a moment Knelt down beside the boy, Then gave a cry that touched all hearts the day. Its my son, my brave young hero, I though you safe at home. Forgive roe father, for I ran away. Chorus. Dear Miss Brooks : Im sending in the song Break the News to Mother, which someone wanted. And now Im going to ask you if you will please help me find a song. I once knew the name some years ago, but it has slipped my mind. I am writing the story of it, and perhaps someone who knows the story also will help me, as I am very anxious to get thb song, if possible. A young husband and his wife, who had a dear little babe, were anxiously watching over it during a sick spell it nad. One night when the parents thought it was better, the mother went to a ball, leaving the babe with its father. midnight, when the mother came home, she found her dear husband in tears and her darling child dead. I thank you very much and wish you loads of success and hope that I may call again. WHITE ROSE. The story of your song is familiar to me, as no doubt it b to others, who, I hope are more fortunate than I in possessing it, and if so, I am sure you will receive it soon. 1 am going to ask some more questions, and know you will answer all you can. (1) I want, if you happen to know, the address of Lila Lee, Jack Holt, Lob . Wilson, Conrad (2) I am thirteen Nagel and May McAvoy. years old and do not know how much I should weigh. I know I weigh somewhere around 114 or 115 pounds. Is that ;my normal weight? Oh yes, Miss Brooks, I wrote to Wallace Reid and my letter has not been answered yet. 1 wrote over two months ago, before he ever became ill. Also to Wanda Hawley, but have had no answer a3 yet. I do want a picture of both, if I can get them. This is all for today. 1 wish you a Merry Xmas and a Happy New year, and plenty of them. I remain your EUREKA FRIEND. P. S. If you receive thb during the holidays don't write for 1 know you will be very busy. You are always welcome, my dear. Your postscript indicates much thoughtfulness on your part, and you see I took advantage of it. (1) Each of the players you mention may be reached by addressing them at the Lasky Studios, Vine St., Hollywood, Calif. This is also vVallace Reid and Wanda Hawleys address. Many of the players addresses change quite often, but your letter should reach them regardless of thb fact, and yours no doubt has, because it has not been returned to you. You understand, of course, that these stars receive many letters such as yours and you may have to wait a very long time for an answer, and could not say hut what you may never receive a picture of them. Did you enclose a cash remittance for a picture? Some of. the players will not send without it, others return the nionty with their photo. (2) The average weight of a girl of thirteen and years is about 89 pounds, so if you weigh 115 you are perhaps a little overweight, if you are not above the average height, which should be about 59 inches. At any rate, take plenty of outdoor exercise of every kind and nature, and there to small danger of you becoming overfat. 1 one-ha- lf Dear Miss Brooks : am very much interested in your corner and would like some advice. 1 am sixteen and I am told that I am There is a boy I know that is continually sending me messages, asking me if 1 love him. I like the boy very well, but dont love him. I do not like to say anything rude to him. Tell me hat to do. There are quite a few boys who like me and when I go to a dance they fight over who is to dance with me. Please advise ma what to do. Pleare publish the song. I Aint Nobodys Dariinir. Thanking you, I am GOLDEN LOCKS. Of course you don't love anyone at sixteen I Why do you hesitate to tell him so? There need be nothing rude in so doing, and thb would put an end to hb foolish messages. It is very silly for the hoys to fight over who is to dance with you. You shood refuse to dance with any one of them who acts in such a manner. Be reserved and womanly and pay no attention to boys who cannot and do not act is gentlemen should. 1 think your song can appear soon, but you should send your name so 1 couid send it to you in case it has to wait too long for lack of space. You should always send your name when you write. It will never appear in the paper if you do not wish it to.
