Ry CYNTHIA
8ay Column Dees Geed
Dear Cynthln I Wve read your col
umn qulte frequently, mid It makes ine
wonder, at times, wnether or net you
fully reallie the geed you perform In
acting as u. mcui'ufn uiiuuhii vu.cii uie
Ideas of ethers may be expressed.
The publishing of, a letter such ne
that written by "The friend of All"
should de mero geed te the younger
generation than, could "a dozen oermens
Te tell us thnt she Is a, friend of the
whole world was net necessary we
could tell that she was after reading br
letter and she Is quite right concern
ing the renaen ter the modern girl s
Immodesty and lack of morals. Her
lowered status Is due, undoubtedly, te
bet' desire te plenie the opposite sex
but then, tee, It preves that the moral-
lt, -r Sia vnllnv mm nt IndflV IS in
perfect nllgnment with the morals of
jlhe modern girls. The fault lies with
the young man of today, and the sooner
we young men learn te fully appreciate
these things which are geed nnd notjie
In a young lady, that seen will sne
become the embodiment of all things
synonymous with geed women.
We nre the' pace-makers, boys, ahd It
Is time that we decrease the cadence a
little, se that our own sisters will net
be splashed with mud, as they n'J'"101
te keep step with us. A HIM.
Just Talk, Don't Question
Dear Cynthia Can you help me?
When b fellow and a girl go out for a
walk, who should start te talk? K It Is
the girl's place te tnlk, can you tell me
something I can talk about? My sister
and a fellow she knows come out with
us, but they walk back of us. The fel
low my sister walks with kids the fel
low I walk with because we invent
anything te say. He says, "I will start
you a conversation." Please print this
ns seen na possible. Because I might
go 6ut again. JENNIE M. R. D.
Suppose the next time you are going
walking you suggest te the young man
that you turn n dlfferent way, or ask
him te cell earlier for you than the
ether man will call for your sister. Take
several walks by yourselves and get
used te talking te each ether. Ask the
young man what he has been doing
elnce you last met. Tell him where you
Imvn hn. whnt tnevlp Vel! haVO seen.
what books you have read. Don't think
about It. JUSt talk. And nbeve all. den t
think "who should spenk first?" or
"whnt hnll I tnlk nhnnt?" "hew shall
I make conversation?" That will maker
you self-conscious at once. Just talk.
If you have te go out with your sister
and the ether young man walks ahead
and starts talking the same way. he
will seen feel at home and will talk
easily with you.
Shall 8he Drep Him?
Dear Cynthia I am a girl of nine
teen and I am attractive looking, have
dark eyes and. hair and I am going
with a rellew who is one year my senior
nnd lives in your city. New, dear Cyn
thia, as you have given geed advice te
ethers, I hope that you will help me
by answering a question. I have a
boy cousin who resides In Philadelphia
and' who knws my boy friend, but
somehow or ether they are net en
poed terms with each ethor and there
fore my cousin has a grudge against
him and tells me net te go with him
nnd many ether things nbeut him. Hut
I de net knew whether the things he
says are true, and he keeps en telling
me net te go with him nnd give him up.
I care for him and I knew he cares
for me, but since my cousin sneaks the
way he docs about him I am disgusted :
but then why should I be. when I de
net knew the truth of the whole thing?
Should I take my ceusn's advice nnd
forget my boy friend or should I still i
go with him, since I care? My cousin I
pays lets of attention te me lately and ,
perhaps he has reasons of his own for
talking nbeut my friend.
This Is the first time I have conie!
for your advlce nnd hope you will print
thin ns seen ns possible, nnd thanking
you. ORIENTAL. EYES.
De net drop your friend from hear
say. Ixit him answer the things said
about him te you. Tell him all about
It. after having said te your cousin
that you Intend te find out If the accu
sations nre true. It Is net fair te any
one te condemn without a hearing.
