I would appreciate you reading White Rose We are Indebted to a Utah reader for your song, White Hose, and I am sure it Is the one you have In mind : WHILE THE DANCE GOES ON Amid the glare and the splendor, Amid the gay and the bright. Joyous and happy the dancers, No thought of sorrow to-night. Softly the strains of the music play on all evening till dawn. Happy are they, Joyous and gay. While the dance goes on. Yet there Is one of the dancers, One with a beautiful face. Laughing and chatting bo freely; Dancing with such careless grace. There Is no firm hand to guide her No one to shielu her from harm, She Is alone, husband at home, While the dance goes on. Chorus: While the music was playing; In the grand ball room: While all hearts beat softly J To the old sweet tune. While the hours were passing, Fleeting one by one, No thought of the morrow. -While the uance goes on. "You will not go to the ball love, Stay with our baby to-night." Rtng in the ears of that lady Who's sparkling eyes shone so bright. What cares she for home and baby While she is queen of the ball. Husband at home, baby alone, While the dance goes on. Only too soon is it over. Home she approaches at last. There at the door meets her husband Who's sad tears fall thick and fast. Then not a word Is there spoken, Gently he leads his wife in; There on the bed, baby lies dead, While the dance goes on. Dear Miss Brooks; We have read your interesting cornea for some time, and find it very helpful, so thought we would write and ask you a few questions, knowing that w would get good results. (1) Do you think It proper to take a young lady to a small town with a small crowd ub-chaperoned? ub-chaperoned? Why do you always prefer pre-fer a chaperon? (2) W have been "stepping" with a couple of girls whom we like real well, but they "step" with other fellows, and we don't like to have them go with the others. They seem to treat all fellows alike, but we would like to have them for ourselves alone. We like them too well to quit them, so what would you advise us to do? (S) WThat do you think of girls who smoke? Some girls insist, and say It is no worse for a girl to smoke than a boy. (4) Isn't it all right to put your armi around a girl when sleighridlng- when its crowded and cold? Thanking you in advance we remain. the rules heading this department and limit your questions, as 1 can gel J so few of the questions received n my limited space anyway. (1) The lower for the month of November is tho red carnation, for the ISth the lalay, meaning Innocence, is listed, and for the 3oth the Oak-Tree, meaning hospitality. Tuesday is said to be the lucky day, January and July the months, colors brown and black and the topaz the Jewel. (2) When ushers are not present the gentleman leads the way and finds a seat. (3) The Etudies most necessary In preparation for stenography sten-ography are grammar, English, spelling, mathematics. Punctuation and spelling ;.re very essential In stenography. (4) Mary Miles Minter is twenty years of age. Liessie Love's age Is not listed so far as I have been able to learn. Send fifty cents with your request for a photograph and you may get one if you are very patient and wait long enough, to) The color, I would say. White and very light colors have a tendency to make people look larger than do black and dark colors. (6) Highly colored stationery is seldom used by persons of refinement and culture. Dearest Miss Brooks: I am very Interested in "Our Corner," and find great comfort In reading the many answers that you give. Iwish you great success in your work this happy year of '23. I have a few questions ques-tions I would like to ask If you do not mind. (1) In my beehive work I chose the wild rose as my symbol, would you please tell me what the meaning is? (V) Is egg harmful for the skin? (3) I was born Nov. 5th, 1909, will you please tell me which are my lucky-days, lucky-days, months and colors? Thanking you In advance and wishing you great success suc-cess In your work. Yours trulv, R. J. a W., Utah. Thanks for your good wishes. We will all work for a year of happiness, won't we? (1) The meaning of the wild rose is, simplicity. (2) I do not DUTCH and DICK, Idaho. Welcome Dutch and Dick. I hope you will be te as pleased with your answers and advice as you have been with others. See answer to "Toots, of Utah" for question number one. (2) And pray why shouldn't these girls "step" with, their other friends? I should say thew were using very good judgment when they treat you all alike, for I take It you are not old folks, and they no doubt wish to become acquainted wltH several boys before they consider an one seriously. I advise you to be broad minded and fair, and be just as gentlemanly gentle-manly and interesting as you know how to be If you have any desire to eventually be the only ones, for In no other way can you qualify. (3) It may not be any worse for a girl to smoke than a boy, but that is not saying say-ing much after all. Is it? Smoking Is a filthy habit, to say the least, with not one redeeming feature. Even the ones who have smoked all their lives admit this, and how any girl or woman can put forth an argument In Its behalf, much less practice he habit is surely a mystery. (4) I do not think so, boys. I urn of the opinion if the boys and girls go out together with the thought of havlns a Joyous, wholesome, jolly-good jolly-good time, they will return to their homes happier and more satisfied with themselves and their associates, than with the thoughts which prorr pt them to wish to pursue the course you mention men-tion in your question. understand in what way you Intend to use egg for the skin, and cannot say what its effects might be until you explain more fully. (3) See answer to Peggy and Sally for November birthday birth-day reading. The Bay-Tree is Msted for Nov. 5th, meaning, glory. Dear Miss Brooks: This is my first attempt to enter the corner and I hope I will be welcomed. Will you answer a few questions for me? (1) I was born June 12. What is my lucky number, month and day? (2) Is Viola Dana married and how old Is she? Will you please give me her address. ad-dress. Thanking you in advance I remain, re-main, MICKEY. Tou ar welcome, Mickey. The flower for June is the Rosie. The lucky months are said to be October and November, the day, Friday, colors, red, blue and white. (2) Viola Dana Is 25 years of age, Is the widow of John Collins and her address Is 7070 Franklin Ave., Los Angeles, Calif. Dear Miss Brooks: I hope I am welcome again, or am I too much of a bother? If I am not, will you answer these few questions? (1) How old should one be before going: go-ing: to dances Just to watch? (2) Is th song, "Ain't we got fun" out of date, and could you publish it? With loads of love, I remain, your rKSTJiH" from Utah. No, my dear boy, you are not too much bother. People of all ages enjoy en-joy seeing- others dance, and I am sure it would be all rijrht for you to watch also, providing you do not stay late or so too oftt-n. (2) There are later songs, but this one Is still quite popular. popu-lar. As It can still be had In the music mu-sic stores (price 40 cents), I cannot publish pub-lish It here, but would be glad to have it sent to you if you wish. Dear Miss Brooks: t have been reading "Just Between Tou and Me" for some time, but have never written to you. 1 hope I am welcome. 1 have seen In the eorner |
