The other afternoon I dropped into a motion picture house. While there a gentleman took the seat beside me. I recognized him easily as a young man holding a con- spicuous position and well known about town. I knew his reputation, too—generous, likable, entertaining, with per- haps the free and easy morals of his profession, but with- out any serious vices. Twice before I had met him accidentally on the street and on both occasions I know he noticed me, tho, of course, that isn’t saying much, As for myself, I won’t go so far as to say that I was af- flicted with love at first sight, but I certainly did experience a most remarkable sense of attraction. I was perfectly con- scious of his frequent glances during the picture. Well, I went home and thought it over, There didn't seem to be any possible way in which I could make his ac- quaintance properly, and still, it having always been my custom to go after what I want, I couldn’t give the idea up. So, finally, I sat down and wrote him a little note offering him the chance to make my acquaintance. ee The rub comes just here. I laughingly related the inci- dent to my sister, who very carefully reported it to my mother. So now I am ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN to ask the young man to the house or to see him at all. Was it so very dreadful, Miss Grey? I am 18 years old “TENNESSEE.” A girl may not defy the conventions to ANY degree and wish to be classed as a respected, refined young lady—nor can she consider her reputation safe and sound from gossip, or worse. ’ panes A young man of the type you describe could easily find a way to meet you according to the rules of good form. If he meets you according to your suggestion, he will accept your acquaintance at par, no doubt. There are always ex- ceptions, you say; but in a matter of this sort, is it worth while for a young girl to stray from the beaten path in} search of the exception? I am sure, when you think this over seriously you will agreé with me that it would be a poor policy. You would much better quell your adventure- some spirit and heed your mother's advice. Perhaps you may not get quite so many “thrills” out of your existence; but neither will you find yourself in any ridiculously im- possible situations. eee i Cynthia Grey will recelve call- Meaning of ers on Monday, Wednesday and Term Friday from 1 to 2/p, m. and on Dear Miss Grey: Please tell me|] Tuesday and Thursday from 11 what 1s meant by the “Economlc|| ‘ aT ie? ryt gg these gr: Interpretation of History.” or: A READER.
