She is ene of thore girls who wear and say slang words. When we two l ave a secret and till it to her she tells everybody she ean. She tells lies about u if she ean and - if we discover It and tell Ikt about It ehe tries to take the blame off herself and blame someone else. We are hoping that it will not be too much trouble for you to tell us if we should go with this girl. With plenty of love, I am, ETHEL, White Knob, Idaho. If this girl is like you seem te think she is why shnuie you have any eeaire to be with her at all? She makes you unhappy, and if she lies, swears, and uses slang, ehe certainly is net very good compeny for any. one. Bat, dear girls, are you quite sure yeu are ladaing th's girl correctly?
