were five uncertain teen-age boys. Could a fat/personal points? (i) Is it right to kiss Your date EOOd-fllflhi if you really care for her? (2) ls it proper to hold R Bill's hand while with ‘her in public? '3) Why do girls take so many things for granted and think we have a crush on them if we so much as smile or ask them for a danoe at partiu?

<4) Why do BlPl-s try to act yearsolder than they really are? ‘Iihis tends to make us feel inferior. (5) When we take a girl to the movies. should we select the show we go io or leave it up to her? ANXIOUS BOYS

ANSWER: Well, boys, girls are kittle-cattle and you can't treat them all alike, but, generally epeakini. the teen-lagers are Just bluifing when they pretend to be phisticated. They are no more cer- tain about what is the proper thing to do when they step out than you are.

ONE KISS ENOUGH I

Now to answer your qumtions (l) it is all right to kiss your date good-night ii vcu really care for her, but make it snappy. Thelnng drawnout kisses that you see in the movies are not adapted to real life. They lose ilavcr. And one is enough. t2) There is nothing improper in holding a girl's hand wlhile walkillfl’ l“ public, but it just looks so common, like Mary Jane's night off. And don't let any girl hang on your arm when you go abroad. It puts you in the attitude oi Just having been captured by a female who has a strangle-hold on you.

(8) Girls make a terrible mistake in amumlng that every boy who is polite to them has fallen madly ill love with ‘chem. It scares many a nice chap off. (f) The reason the bobby-sockets aot years older than they really are is because they think it makes them seem worldly wise and dangerous. If they had the slightest idea that dressing like an elder- ly siren and assuming e. bored, blasc air wasn't popwlr with you boys, they wouldn't do it. '

(5) When you take a girl to the movies, ask her wnat she would like to see, but always have a suggestion to make up your sleeve. Nothing is so embarrassing to a girl as to go out with a boy who makes he!‘ do all the planning.

DEAR MISS DIX: My mother is driving rrle insane. I am a girl of l6 and think I should be allowed to live my own life. She objects to every date I have and never lets a bcy come inio the house. My lath-u- agrees with me, but we can do nothing with Mother

Si-lould l humor her or do as l please?

BUFFERED

ANSWER: A girl of i6 who tinder-takes to live her own life. inde- pendent of her parents, is mighty apt to come to grief. She doesn't know: her way about any more than a baby does. She doesn't know how to play the game and defend herself against the wolves who are prowling around locking for such little ewc lambs as she is. Alld she has no way oi supporting herself. Every teen-age girl ought to be clown on her knees thanking God for the protection of a home and for a mother to make a background for her.

Your mother is certainly very foolish in trying to hold you on such a tight rein. She should give you enough liberty to keep you from feeling that you are a prisoner. She should let you have plenty of nice boy friends and have them come to the house, for that is the only way in which she can know what yoll nra doing and what sort oi boys you go out with.
