know what readers think o.' your conclu
sions. Here are mine. In as few words
as possible; Our family dates back for

not display mv Ignoraneo In newspapers
It Is too nmpicuous. i am leaving next

whom I met durlnc eighteen months
spent tlure during the war. Yes. she
speaks "sood Kntcllsh" also, having
studied It four years before graduating,
Illlc est franealse (she Is French born)
In case correspondent In question does
not understand any language except
Klnit's Knsllsh
My adlee to you Is "read up" and
travel some. It will do you good. But
what more could one expect from a per

He's In a Bad Way
Dear Cynthia There appeared In your

w;rlttcn by one who Is disgusted with
womankind of the present-day typo ; one
I would class In the same catagorv ns
myself. "Ixits of Kxperiencc" I think,
speaks the truth when he says eight out
of everj- ten girls are not worth powder
enough to blow their heads off so far as
making a home for a worklngman is
concerned. I am an old bachelor, thirty
six years of age. and I have yet to see
the llrst girl I would wish sharing my
life with or to whom I would trust a
home
AVho Is to blame for these conditions?
I think the blame lies principally with
the girls' parents. They are brougnt ui
to be ladles of case, Instead of learning
housework; they nre of no earthly value

Her Hostess Found Her Banging a Ball Against the House at 6
