Taw 19 years of ag6, and four years ago I went to work down town, got in with a bad crowd, and, of course, the Inevitable happened. Now, Miss Grey, don’t think that I'm trying to blame any one bit myself when I tell you, had I been told what 1 might expect, and what might happen, | would not have gone wrong. For there ts an inate refinement and decency about me. Mother is a broad«ninded, well-educated, well-read woman, but she is narrow as to what should be told a child. ‘fo make a long story short, after a year of such life, 1 found my self in a very bad physical condition. 1 went home, and have lived there until two months ago, when I thought | was strong enough to withstand temptation, but, Miss Grey, [ couldn't. And now, I will be rexponsible for another tife. If it would hurt only myself, | could stand ft, but | have seen so many children brought into the world when they would better be dead. I've been in high school since the beginning of this semester, try- ing to make up what I've lost, and I do #0 want to finish—to have one more chance. I don't know which way to turn. Miss Grey, what shall i dot MARYAN, A—"Maryan,” there is another chance.

Methers are not ‘wholly to blame, but both parents are responsible to a great degree, Some times I grow indignant, sometimes heartsick, and sometimes very weary when ! realize that parents won't wake tip, but send their children drift- ing out into the great sea of the world with never a warning, never a chart, hot even a life-preserver to ald them in a storm, or the deceitful calm that precedes the storm. 11 would be more kind were they to set them afloat on the ocean that laps our shore day by day Yes, | know many #re not informed, but we have our public library, with the latest books on the subject. There is positively no excuse but false modesty. Doesn't it seem small, in the face of a child's terror such as that above—and a child who {s anxious to finish her school? ‘aryan,” I can help you if you will come to me any afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, Not a word of blame awaits you, and | will see you private- ly.. Don't delay, but come. At least, write for private reply. a a ee “ST.
