SYNOPSIS
Virginia AVesl enters boarding
school n shy child, but at the Christ
mas holidays her mother realizes that
the girl has become n woman. Vir
ginia takes her closest fnend, Kath
leen Poster, home with her. Kath
leen is eager for mlrcnluro nnd not
too scrupulous about how sho enjoys
life. Tho difference between Kath
leen nnd Virginia is just beginning tu
bo shown in their attitude townrd

Vorty-sK and Eighteen
MRS. WEST was in bed the next
morning, conscious of the fact thnt
she was never at her best until sho-had
bathed, eaten a leisurely breakfast, hnd
a face massage mid dressed, when Vir
ginia came into the room like a fresh
Ilreeze. She Hew to the window nnd
pulled up the shade, letting a stream
of pale vellow sunshine tlood into (lie
mom. Mrs. West blinked in the strong
Wght nnd said pettishly :
'Tor heaven's sake. Virginia-, pull
thnt shade down ngnio! Don't bo such
n tomboy." '
"I'm sorry. Mother, dear: have you
a headache?" the girl returned, pulling
the shade down halfway nnd then
coming around to sit on the edge of
tho bed. "I wanted -to tell you how
wonderful it is to be home and I wnnt
to ask jou a favor."
Mrs. West vanned -prettily nnd view
ed her daughter over the edge of the
rose-colored comfortable.
"Have you had your breakfast?"
"Long ago "
"Where's Kathleen?"
"Oh, she's somewhere about. Did
jolt have a good timo last night?"
"Pretty fair. Hand me my slippers,
will you, Virginia? Yes, and thnt negli
gee the one on tho chair. What time
is it, anyway?''
"ITnlf-pnst 0 nnd the loveliest day.
Mother, I want to have a party while
I'm home. May I?"
"I suppose you nnd Kathleen think
you're grown up now nnd must have
regular affairs. Of course, you want to
invite boys." She said boys with a
little emphasis on the word that was
unmistakable. Soothing sirup and
nursing bottles wore definitely implied.
Virginia laughed. "I want you to
meet Jimmy," she said softly.
"Who is Jimmy?"
"A man from Grant College. T want
ed to tell you about him last night. I
like him."
Virginia sat watching her mother
bread are not tho only requirements to
mnko a real girl. There is such a thing
as having n regard for other people and
having some reserve. There nro thou
sands nnd thnusnnds of Philadelphia
gills who would hold their places when
compared to any New England girl.
Just because a discussion of this col
umn Is centeicd on all the faults of
somo Philadelphia girls, It gives you the
impression thut to bo a Philadelphia
girl must be a tcrriblo thing! Tere's
not the least doubt that if discussion
ot girls' faults were taken up among
New England girls there would bo the
samo faults and accusations that you
read of in this column.
Some of the worst accusations made
are just to provoke und prolong discus
sion on that particular subject.
There are alwavs a few out of the
many that discredit nil. And, let me
tell you. "Real Yankee Girl" (which is
doubtful), the girls of Philadelphia are
just as good as if not better than the
girls from nny other section of the
world.

the dressing table, but Mrs. West, viow
ing her daughter iu tbo glass, realized
that there was not tho absorption in
Virginia's eyes that hod been there once.
Sho was different.
"How old Is ho?"
"Why, I don't know, but lfo's a sen
ior." "Ilns he money?"
"I don't know, Mother. Rut whnt
does it matter?" Virginia flushed at
tho question it seemed so disloyal to
Jimmy.
"Don't marry a poor mau, Virginia.
I'll wager jour friend Kathleen hns
soino sensp about such things "
"I haven't thought of mnrrylng any
oue, not for ages," Virginia retorted.
"And Kathleen's engaged to a man at
college, and he's poor." She strung her
words all together. Sho was childishly
hurt at her mother's half-bautcriug,
lialf-sarcastic nttilude.
"So Kathleen is engaged." Mrs.
West's tone was even. "To some boy?"
Again thnt slur nt the word "boy."
It made Virginia suddenly angry.
"Yes. but she thinks Mr. Allen is
wonderful," she flnshed.
Mary West did not start, but a sud
den little flame burned iu her eyes nnd
she was instantly angry with herself.
Was she araid of the power that this
girl might have? Was sho willing to
iidmlt herself jealous of one ot Vir
ginia's friends? I low small, bow ut
terly Ill-bred, and jet that little feeling
was there in spite of her effort to crush
it out. Theie had been something wist
ful in Dick Allen's voice last night when
lie bad spoken of Kathleen, nnd there
was something in that girl's eyes, some
thing alluring, something witch -like,
Hint, plus her youth, must bo irresistible
to nny man.
"Of course you can have a party,"
she said after a moment's silence.- "And
I think I'll give n little dinner for you
and Kathleen. You must invite this
wonderful Jimmy and Kathleen's fiance.
I might ask Dick Allen ; that would
make iut six of us. Would you ltKc
thnt?"
"Oh. Mother, that would be wonder
ful. You're sure jou won't bo bored?"
"Oh, I'll bo very ulce to this Jimmy."
And Mrs. West laughed. She hnd put
herself into n good humor with the
idea of this dinner. Altogether it was
quite a nice little plan.
Tomorrow What happened at the
dinner. '
you think that n fellow of thirty-one
is too old for a girl of nineteen.'

Christmas Gift Ideas
To the Editor ot WomaWp raaci
Dear Mndam Back ugaln for some
moro hclpB. Wo are ever striving for
that "gift personal" und when our
knowledge of whore to purchase these
greatly wlshed-for articles is. so small
we come to you.
I have a cousin who Is very fond
of story writing. IIo has written two
scenarios nnd is fond of thnt work. But
it is not his daily occupation, nor does
he very frequently do It. Just the snmc
I feel that he would appreciate some
thing having to do with writing. Ho
hns lots of nice desk sets nnd paper.
I must send him something because he
has been so kind to me when most
young men arc so taken up with their
girls or wives. Ho has helped mo write
stories, as it is ulso oue o my pleas
ures, and has seemed to be as interested
as a child ; so you see I feel extremely
indebted to him.
Then, thero is another, n marricl
man, who, with bis wife, entertained
me so cordially at his homo this last
season, and ho took such mi in
terest In showing mo all his books
nnd plans of nrchitecturc. Collect
ings pictures of homes and plan
ning houses is another ono of my hob
bies. So many married men grt so busi
ness and important-like, nud don't
bother about speaking to a little four
teen -year-old girl, except to ofTcr her
something to eat at their tables, much
less sit down and talk to her; but this
friend did talk to me and entertain me
splendidly, so I want to give him some
thing pertaining to architecture because
he. takes to that. When I send his wife
a gift, E-i like lo enclose one for him.
M. W.
If your cousin writes scenarios, why
don't you send him a subscription to a
""movio' magazine? Some of them are
very good, you know, and they arc al
ways Interesting to any ono who is fond
of the movies.
I think it would bo nicer for you
just to send an especially pretty Chrlst
mns card to the other man. and write
In few words on jt, "in appreciation of
your kindness to a lourtecn-ycar-om,
or something of the kind. If you sent
anything else you might make a mis
tako and send something that would
bo neither useful nor ornamental, nnd
I am sure he would appreciate your
thought much moro If it were expressed
in a simple way.
Adventures
With a Purse
I DROPPED In to have, a chat, and
to ask him If he had nny nice music
for motto tell you about. "Here's n
little waltz," he said. "I'm sort of
interested iu it because I had a hand
iu it mvself." OE course I asked to
hear It and I liked It. It's a light little
waltz song, with a lilting air that you
will find yourself humming ns you go
about your work. I urn quite sure
that you will like it. He wrote the
chorus, It appears, and so you will have
the advantage of hearing the composer
Inmsell play tho waltz lor you.

I nm golug to show you up", "Oidl
Bachelor." and tell the truth about you.
Your spirit is broken. You have let
n mere woman, ono of those things
that you despise so, break you down
nnd make you tako rcfugo behind thjs
wnR of brutality.
"Never again." you protest valiant'
lr. "Does a burnt child play with
fire?" No. n child doesn't, but you are
not a child. You'ro just a grown man
behaving like n child. It hurt terribly.
I didn't It. having the only girl breuk
faith with yoti like that.' And nil you
wnnt to 'do now is lo console yourself
nnd hurt her hurt her deeply, ns she
hurt you. Well, do you think it will
hurt- her to know that you havo given
up all women just because you loved
her and she "threw you over"? That
would just please her woman s vanity,
to think thnt losing her had that much
effect on you. Arid docs it console you
to push your under lip out and sulk all
'the rest of your life? It will get tire
some after a while, just as it used to
when you were a dilld and had to stay
in the house because it was raining.
You wouldn't play with any of your
toys then; you wouldn't be pleased with
any lovely story that Mother told jou,
very hard to be polite nnd not look
bored. It. was not until- we saw the
tumblers that ho began to perk up and
tako an interest. "Oh, I say," ho ex
claimed, they'd be nice for " (I
mustn't tell you who it's too near
Christmas.) Which all goes to prove
that Peter is not slow to recognize vnl
ues. The tumblers nrc quite plain nnd of
n medium-weight glass. Their great
bcautv lies in their initinls, for you
can have ono initial put on each turn
bcr in any .ono of several styles of
lettering for ?2. That is, the total
price, including the. glasses and ini
tinls, is only $2 for the dozen. The
ones we bought havo n monogram in
plain, heavy striped block letters nnd
were only 13.150 for a dozen. I'd like to
have you stop and seo these tumblers,
for they would probably prove tho very
thing you will need for some one's
Christmas.
Here's a nice Christmas gift for the

and nfter everybody had left you to
jour owii'disagrcrqblo self you kept up
the frown until you discovered that no
body cared whether you were sullen
or not. Then it got tiresome, didn't it?
You didn't seo bow you could ever
make peace with honor.' So ytvu kept on
being hostile until you got so lonely
that you just had lo go get n forgiving
smile from Mother. ,
That's the wav it will be with tills
nfter u while. Youth hns no time, you
know, for it iniili with u perpetual
"grouch."
"What's the matter with John?" ono
of j-our friends will say. "He's so bet
ter about everything, and if you men
tion girls he goes into a frenzy."
"Oh, he's fctlirpitylng himself nbout
thnt one girl that threw him over," the
other will answer In deep disgust. "You
might suppose lie was tho only man
who ever had the experience, or thnt.
she was the last remaining girl in the
world. I'm genlng sick of (he way he .
bohnves." And they will begin lo leave
you out of festivities.
BETTER begin to try that smile
out now, Old Hachelor, beforo the
long-drawn-out cynical lines get so deep
that they craek when you try to sprend
them the other way. And don't forget
that if you do give up to this desolate,
feeling, you're virtually
giving that ono girl the satisfaction of
knowing thnt she meant, bo much to j-ou
thnt your whole life is spoiled with
out her. Remember that your frowns
nnd glooms nnd threats don't bother
anybody but j-our own self and wav;
down deep, thev really don't satisfy
you, do they? Wouldn't you just lov
tu'inake a "pretty speech" to n girl and
then' laugh iu the good old foolish way.?
