it all right with the average FRIVOLOUS DAN. Granted, that the average girl prefers to have the man spend his money and she save hers when she steps out. But if the exceptional girl prefers to spend her own money and retain her Independence, that Is surely her right. The Dutch treat idea seems a pretty one to me. I can see how the boys would oppose it.

Boys reiolce in the privilege of choosing their companion for the evening and paying the bills. the old cave man Idea of male ownership viork- Ing. And true enough, most of the girls like the caveman stuff. But there are some who do not. Some girls who earn their own living feel freer to cut a boy if she has not been under financial obligation to him.

She does not owe him anvthing for the entertainment except the pleasure which her company gave, and she feels that the pleasure he received from her com- penv Is equal, at least, to that she received from his companionship.

It seems to me that the Dutch treat idea might do much toward developing a wholesome, sensible relatlomhip between young people of opposite sexes. I favor the idea of bovs and girls a.ssoclatlng to- It is unfortunate that any mother will permit her children to be placed plain if they do.

Dear Minerva: I've read your Mall for vears and can ceftalnly say I have always your broadminded views on various questions put to you. It Is to you I am turning for hon- head? Is she really so dumb as to; think that her little nine-year old lamb already know of such things, having heard them from other children? If that mother only knew how unfair she was to, she certainly take the attitude she has taken.

No, not an old hen. etc. Just a seventeen-year old high school girl, but I know what it would tnean to me now to be able to say that my mother told me about facts of life. I believe I would have the straight of things advanced on this and that, refusing to give mere lip service to such phrases as brotherhood, democracy, equality and freedom of speech. Sometimes the growing pains of thought within them cause them to give vent to some startling ideas, i But most of them come out of it pretty clear headed.

They are better off for Juggling with theories. I believe. things that should not be and also to kill the run-about habit Minerva, I cannot for the world understand the laxity of parents now davs. Mv bovs have their toys, sand pile and I often play with them.

I call my youngsters In the house thinking the neighbor children would run along home But no They only take possession of tricycle, car or sand pile and stay. Is it UP to me to train the neighbor children for them? This Isn the worst of it When their mother calls them they answer her wFh a sometimes, make faces at her and run away. The mother boasts tiiM she never punishes a child and she certainly doesn't either.

She thinks it cute been told she had trouble another neighbor one time and when this lady called on her to talk things oter about the children she was told very hastily that never interfered with affairs and left them to settle their sqaabbles" and shut the door on her. So I have never once said one thing to her But it gets so bad. Minerva The one young.ster isn't three years old.

A SMILE Dear brides and.dear girl graduates Embarkiiig on 'PVTiere waves will ruffle up at times And cause you 'lliouih circumstance might toss about And hide your sun a while The only really tragic thing Would be to lose your smile MODERN EVE A SMILE costs nothing, but gives much. It enriches those who receive, without making poorer those who give.

It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or so mighty that he can get along w'itliout it, and none so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. -A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters good w'ill in business, and is the countersign of friendship. It brings rest to the cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and is best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to any one until it is given away.
