After going to­ gether several months, we became engaged We decided to get mar­ ried when I'd be about 19 years old. and as this is a long time to wait we thought wed break the engagement, (with the understand­ ing that some day we would marry. I have always been true to him. and told him everything. He has promised to do the same, and I believe he is pretty troe so far. Other fellows have asked me to go with them, but I refused be­ cause my thoughts go back to the one I love. He does not go out with different girls. He has told me often that he loves me. Do you think he loves me if he waits till I'm of age? Everybody tells me that he is not worthy of my love, and that I'd be foolish to marry him But I love him and no one else.
