Martha Lee Says PAL GIVEN PREFERENCE OVER ‘PETTER.’ BY BOYS

The, pal, not the “petter,” is the girl that really appeals most to the average boy or young man, according to a former Technical High School boy. This boy suggests that though the petter may, hold a boy more firmly while she has him, she Joses him soone*.

This boy pictures the average American boy of today as having a girl for every mood, but as clinging longest to the one who gives him the best there is In friendship. He tells all this to Jeanne, the French girl and Manual High student vho wrote. In answer to charges cf Shortrldge girls that there are no more gentlemen In high schools, that it Is girls, not boys, who seem least courteous to her. Jeahne wanted to know what kind of girls boys really like best. The ex-Tech student tells her. Other boys evidently agree with him. That’s one hopeful sign. Another Is that letters telling the Bhortrldge girls and me that there most certainly a:*e gentlemen left in high schools continue to pour In. Pal to Fore Dear Mies Lee: I some time watched with Internet the squabble about the burning guestlon. “Are there any more gentlemen lent" ~ The question of Jeanne, the French girl, bring* up a much larger proposition. The average American boy or today. Jeanne, has a girl to lit every dlaoositlon Some times hs want* to pet. some times he merely desires a pleasant companion, aotne times he wants a dandy dancer, etc. But for the most part—and every boy and girl of the ••loving” kind can testify to the truth of this—lt la the girl who ia the pal that stays on the boy's roster tho longer, because she keep# his respect. A girls kisses soon loss their spice, ana petting her becomes a bore, but the girl who is sympathetic, has a good sense of humor and a good sense of propriety will keep a boy much the longer. Though the petter will hold a boy firmer while she has him. she la like a candle burning at both ends, and soon loses him. In connection with gentleman dispute. I would like to add that the chances are ten to one that those girls were painted like Indians on the war path, and a walking beauty parlor ad is not a sight to inspire a boy to gentlemanly acta on a street car, any more than tho same girl would inspire a boy to behave like a gentleman on park bench. These spooning, painting snappers can t seem to realize that It ia Inconsistent to expect a boy to act like a roue along with the girl and with the girl’s consent, and then to act like a cultured gentleman on the street car. N. E. GENTLEMAN, EX-TECH. He Agrees Dear Miss Lea: Jeanne wanted to know what kind of girls boys like beet. You tell her the petter may have a good time for a while, but she get# left when a man begins to think about what kind of girl he wants to marry. The kind of girl a boy likes best after he is old enough to think seriously about such things, la the girl who is a true friend “Wft the kind of girl the gentlemen want And there are plenty of gentlemen left in the world, too. and in tho high schools. ANTI-PETTER. 'Not Ladies’ Dear Mias Lee: I want to say lust a few words. If the high school girls would be ladies, maybe the boys would be gentlemen. These hifh school girl* wear their dresses up to tneir knees, put on rouge, powder and lipstick so thick you can't tell who they are. and stand for these •'petting parties. Modesty isn't in it. Every boy is a gentleman compared CENTRA I* STATE??COM.EUE*STT7jpjtNTS An Example Dear Miss Lee: The subject of "gentlemen'' evidently has caused quite a furore. It reminds me of an incident on a car I once boarded. A man wm upbraided by one of our own sex for sitting next to a woman who had wanted that seat for her companion. He rose and said. "I beg your pardon, madam.'' then added, "but we all pay the same fare.” In that raae neither was e gentlewoman nor gentleman. So remember, gtrle, that though it waa wrong for them to keep their seats, even though we are almost man's equal those boys when they grow into real men will not be able to look back upon that act with a cynical smile, but will regret the verje unmannerly thing they did After SI is said and done, ft ia not tha school ucatlon. but the home teaching, which ays the most * n etiquette.

Girl Defends Boys Dear Miss Lee: I think If a woman can vote and girls take mr#s jobs, a man has the right to sit on a street car. I am a girl, but not one of the Shebae. All should have “equal rights.” What do you say. Miea Lee?- If you were a girl and took a man's job. would you expect to take a mar.'a seat in a car? I would nor I hope the dear little Shebaa see this. ANOTHER GREENFIELD READER. Cosmopolitan Student My Dear Mias Lee: I have attended high schools all over the country, but I graduated from Tech. In my short onenaif year there. I thought Tech hafl the moat polite boys I had even known. Tech also can be proud of the manners of her gtrfa. I am now enraged to a Tech senior—another reason for my boosting the boys. I wish to say I think Butler University has a very rude bunch of fellows. Not only are they Impolite, but they also appear to be very coarse. A BUTLER COED.
