Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Bovs and girls are invited to air their opinions about each ether in this column. Jump in each discussion as it appears, and the best Letters will be published.

A short time ago Dick and three boy friends wrote to Jane Jordan and complained that although they spent their money on the girls, the girls were unwilling to kiss them in return for the evening’s entertainment. Here are some letters in reply: Dear Jane Jordan—l think Dick and his boy friends probably are not interesting enough in themselves to entertain a girl; so they resort to necking. Most fellWs can show, you a good time when they have the money, but how many are interesting by themselves? I enjoy kissing someone I like or admire, but I hate to be expected to kiss in payment for entertainment. JUST ONE GIRL. Dear Just One Girl—Your complaint is echoed by many other girls who find that boys are exceedingly uninteresting companions. They neck because they can’t think of anything to talk about. One of the real tests of a love affair is the interest the partners find in talking to each other. When an experience is incomplete until it is shared with the beloved partner, things begin to look serious. Boys are not looking for a love affair. They are in search of release from physical tension, and any pretty female will do. This state of mind is no compliment to a girl who wants to feel that she was chosen from many because of her own

peculiar charm. The boy with the j knack of making a girl feel that she is one in a million can have almost any girl he fancies. nun Dear Jane Jordan—May I, as a ' young man, express my sentiments on Dick's problem? I believe him to be a conceited, boasting boy, who will learn later that what you have to pay for in the line of love is not worth the price. I come from the east, where competition for a girl's company is keener. We fellows had to wine, dine, and dance for the girl’s company for ! absolutely nothing in exchange, and it only increased our respect and liking for the girls. I offer my congratulations to the girls of Indianapolis for being the best companions for a fellow in these times. A whole-hearted comradeship does not cost a week’s salary to maintain. The fellows don't know when they are well off. 808. Dear Bob —I don’t think Dick is so much conceited as puzzled He likes to neck. Why don't the girls like it? He has yet to learn that girls endow physical demonstrations of affection with a significance that does not exist for him. tt u n Dear Jane Jordan—To Dick: So you and your friends would like something in return for your hard-earned cash! I’m a girl of 18 and I have several boy friends, but there’s only one I care enough about to stay home with. I reserve my kisses for him. Do you think I’d want , him to believe that I let other fellows kiss me like he does? Not on your life! My advice to you is to find a girl who likes you better than any other fellow and who won’t mind sitting at home instead of going out on dates. DASH. Dear Dash—l’ll look forward to Dick's answer to your letter. Dear Jane Jordan—l should like very much for Dick to read what I have to say. Dick, what makes you think a girl owes you anything for an evening’s entertainment, other than her agreeable companionship? Many a night I’ve stayed at home with boys, dancing to the radio, playing bridge, talking, and fixing little lunches for them. Both of us enjoyed ourselves to the utmost without a cent of cost to the boy. I’m inclined to believe you expect too much. Don’t condemn every girl as a gold digger until you’ve met more types. I’ve three other girl friends who feel the same about this question. PUZZLED PAT. Dear Puzzled Pat—Most girls enjoy an evening at home with a boy who isn’t bent on pawing them to death. Now r that Dick has read all the opinions his letter brought out, I hope we hear from him again. Dance Is Sponsored Woman's Club of the Brookside community will sponsor a dance at the hall 8:30 Friday night. The Royal Nightingales wall play.
