curl it on wax paper in tight curls not combing these out ater after removing the paper cover them with a net tucking the ends up under the net in the back carefully and they will remain in for some time time you might wear a ribbon around the head either over the forehead or across the top of head bead to hold front hair in place to CORA ut you were just as welcome as could be dear to the song

words of commendation and I 1 wish I 1 might answer you more fully at this time dear miss brooks we would like to ask you it a few questions 1 Is it proper tor for boys and girls to go in swimming together 2 how old should you be before you aw allow boy friends to call on you and lo 10 take ake you out at nights 3 Is it any worse tor for a girl to smoke than a boy 4 why Is in it that boys have the habit of petting girls thanking you in advance we remain truly TOOTS AND CASPER utah thanks very very much tor for the song bongs girls 1 surely it Is proper tor for boys and girls to go in swimming together in a public pool providing of 0 course they have proper bathing suits and are properly chaperoned 2 not before you are sixteen girls 3 no and yes no in the sense that it to is no snore more harmful physically to a girl than a boy yes in the sense of its moral effect on both boys and girls wen men in general have always looked upon the gentler sex as being of finer clay than themselves as regards morals which they undoubtedly have been if then a woman lowers losers her moral standard to the extent of smoking cigarettes with him what effect could she reasonably expect this to produce quite naturally he would expect still further concessions and why in the name of all that Is reasonable should she wish to smoke the be best st I 1 that hat even its m most 0 at enthusiastic adherents c claim im for it la is that hat it does no not t harm t them hem no one ever claims that its continued use Is 19 beneficial why then waste our time and energy on something we know from the beginning can do us no rood good and may do us great harm 1 4 because the girls have allowed them to form this habit of course suppose the girls should all go on a petting strike you dont imagine you would find the boys petting each other do you SIR MR HAWLEY howe idaho below you u will III see one of the songs you requested clu ested some time ago NO SIR tell me one thing thina
