I have been going wltn a boy for about three months steady •mtil here lately he came to the house where I was staying and the lady of the house didn’t approve of his coming so last week he went away to work. I have not heard from him yet. He told me before he went away he would come bade after me when he got work for the summer. Do you think I should go with other boys while he is away or not? Do you think I should wan for him to eome to see me or write me before I go out with oth«r boys? Broken-Hearted Me. BROKEN-HEARTED ME: Appar FLIT ««. u. ». HT. or*. KILLS FLIES MOSQUITOES JfT^Ouicker! I_ ently you are not engaged to this boy who went away In search of a position. If that is the case, there is no reason why you should not ac stum i —mu wmmmmrmmnmmmmmp cept imitations from other men and enjoy their compana if you wish to. As for his not writing you, he may have put It off, day after day. until he had some good news for you. Dear Annie Laurie: I am a girl In my teens and I adore a boy who always treated me very nice. Because I wouldn't give him a date and went to a party with another fellow he got Jealous. Now he will hardly speak. Please advise me how to win him back.—QUEENIE. QUEENIE: Unless you are en gaged to the boy. there Is no rea son why he should have gotten Jeal ous because you went to a party with another lad. I advise you to make no decided effort to “win him back.” When you meet him, treat him nicely—ignore his “peeve.” You are going to be very foolish If you devote yourself to anyone who In dulges In such unjustified “Jealous streaks.” Two More Announce As Candidates For Valley School Race McALLEN.
