Qo Girl From Old Home Town Comes to City With Ideals Only to Be Laughed at by Gay Throng and Dubbed “Sissy”—She Then Tried to “Do as Rom- ans Do” and Regrets It. BY CYNTHIA GREY A rather pitiful letter comes to the desk today. It is from @ girl who has been in the city three years. She was born and brought up ina wee, sma’ town, She came to the bright lights high with hope, filled.with the ideals her mother had instilled in her mind. She found everything “topsy-turvy” as she expresses it People didn’t think as she had been taught to think, The young folks did things she had been told were wrong to d She found she couldn't have friends and good times, ur less she fell into their ways. She was so lonesome, And she took the path that al seemed to be following in such utter disregard of cons quence. : Hore is a part of the letter she has written: Miss Grey: Cynthia Grey will recelve call- ers on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1 to 2 p, m. and on Tuerday and Thursday from 11 to 12 a. m, at her office in The Star Bidg., 1309 Seventh ave, It's all wrong.
