Mowers that bloom early and last all

The clematis is the same. Japanese Ixy

All the Ivies remain green all through

You must plant your asters earlier in the

Vincent Writes Again
To the Editor ot rTomnn's rnoe;
Pear Madam Thank you for our answer
Jo my long letter published In the
larxixn l'lm.io Lsikier of May 3, Tour
answer Impressed me, but I do not believe
you entirely understood my letter.
I did not mean to tell you that I warned
the girl against her own sister, but I warned
her not to follow the wajs ot silly girls.
I wrote tn warn her that no matter how
fine outnard appearancea may be in these
daya thero la very little beneath tho aurface
that la worth anything,
The kind of good times jnu speak of arn
Innocent, but those I referred to add nothing
to a glrl'a honor and respect.
I aald things to the girl In that tetter that
she had never heard before becauso her
parents haxe never warnrd her.
I know unfortunately that It doea not do
to warn another person. It usually gets
the person who would do well Into trouble.
I am not too eer'ous.mtnded. but I have
seen too much unhapptness from mlstakea
and t do not want to aee this nlco ounv
atrl make a mistake.
Of course, there Is no reason why she
should not go with boys she knows, but
oni r.j an,, euuuiu .uur an wun nice ooya
who respect her. What do you think of
girls et ten. twelve, fourteen and sixteen
ataylng out until 10. 11 and 12 o'clock at
night, and tneir paienta do not know where
they are or whom they lire with?
1 have not heard from the young girl
elnrn I wrote, nor have 1 seen her. Do ou
think It best to go see her or not?
Home one told me that aa she tore un
the letter 1 aent her she aald ahe hated me.
What do you think tit that!
VINCENT.
I think that you are a good and kind
hearted young man, Vincent, and am
Eorry that the girl you wrote to did not
understand your desire to help her and
keep her from evil. I agree with you
that it Is very wrong for glrla of ten,
twelve, fourteen and sixteen years of
age to bo out on tho street after 10
o'clock. In fact, the younger onea
should be In the house by 8. As for
their parents not knowing where they
are. I would not like to have to be an
responsible aa those parents will be and
are for their little girls. It is decidedly
their fault,
.1 would not do anything further If I
were jrou.' Yeur letter was evidently mis
understood by the younr girl, and any
liriaer awvaneea in tno matter wouia ao
