Although we expected Lt to, be a mild affair it turned out to1 bo every thing but that, with li quor flowing like water. I have chunk highballs before but have always been able to control myself unti’ thi- night when I found my ‘•rlf out on a automobile party wl h two limy a and another girl,— al1 of us exceeding the speeding link". 1 am sr-e that this rievfr would have happened had I been in my right mind Since this happen in'; I have learned from one of my friends that this boy has a re putation of having a social af fliction. My friend has repeated this story to me several times as if trying to imp re m something rn my mind. It is awful to be so dumb, but it has just dawned on in.) that thi; affliction might have | been contracted by me, and as a re.suit I am driven to desperation. 1 1 d not have enough money to wi i a doctor. My parents think I am a perfect child and would have fits if they knew I was guilty on any count. And of course I wouldn’t think of discussing the matter with the boy. D W. Answer: Here we have a young lady whose well intending, if not well informed, parents have brought up in apparent ignorance of the many pitfalls which endanger the lives of youngsters growing into ma turity. A sensible and frank ex planation of the many natural cur iosities which form in the minds of \ young ones would help greatly in; preventing broken lives and faith in later years. It is perfectly a!-! right to think ones children per ) feet and devoid of all evil, but it is more secure to shelter them with the proper knowledge. As for you Miss D. W. you admit that you are guilty on at lease “one count." Dont make it another by not taking matters up imme diately with your parents and con sulting a competent physician. We hope for the sake of all concern ed that there isn’t anything Wrong but this is unlikely. Immediate at tention is imperative for ills of this typo or they will cause you more misery than just embarrasinent. Your .physician will explain' this i pioro- fully. As for becoming in-, toxicated there is nftver any ex cuse for that. A healthful body needs no artificial stimulant in order to bring out the personality. As for the boy who knowingly exposes unsuspecting girls to his miseries he should be handl ed by the proper authorities. How ever, this involves action which is usually dist-a teful. Therefore the only safe avenue is to take no chancer. J. 1). h. CONSISTORY NO 27 A. A. Scott sh Rite of Masons held their election January 8th, 1939. Charles M. Simmons, past sal. C.
