Dear Miss Vera:
I have a question In mind that
has probably baffled other girls
before me
I have been proponed
to by two boys, one of whom Is
very good looking and who I like
very much, lie la conceited and
fickle.
The other Is a serious minded
fellow who Is quite the opposite of
the lively fellow, who Is always
"the life of the party."
