“AIMLESS”

Dear Miss Rutledge,— I have some girl friends with whom I go out on various occasions, danchig, playing tennis and swimming. I like the company of these girls, especially in their own particular environment. and life would be uninteresting for me without their friendships. Unfortunately my parents do • not like me spending my time in what they call “aimless” companionship, and want me to settle down and marry.

Your career should be given proper attention, for you cannot expect to make a success at any line of endeavour unless you are grounded and properiy experienced in your subject. Regarding choosing a future wife, you must think further than just registering a pleasureable feeling from meeting girls at play, as this gives you little insight into their real natures or their general characteristics.
