Glenda C.-I am in my mid- 208, recently married and working in an office which employs a number of girls just out of high school. I am concerned about one of these girls who has been coming to me for advice. She gets into the weirdest situa tions with men.

But no matter how often I tell her she must keep her dignity and self-respect, she manages to barely escape with either. Judy L. - It's all very well to talk about dignity and self respect. The way men are to day it's almost impossible to get away with either and still have dates and good times. I have tried to be "just friends" with loads of fellows. It never works out. Most men are just interested in one thing - and it's not friendship. I have tried to follow Glen da's advice on many things, but it never works out. She just happened to have the luck to meet the unusual type of guy who wants marriage and isn't out for what he can get. Things have gotten so bad I'm about ready to give up one thing or the other-self-respect or men. I think it'll be self-respect. The Council: Judy, like many skittish young girls, seems to have an intense cu riosity about men and sex and her own potentialities for lur ing a man on. We think her motivation is a far stronger factor in her involvements with men than their motiva tion. In spite of Judy's protesta tions of innocence and confu sion we get the distinct im pression she knows what she is about and is using Glenda as a kind of testing ground and source of information. Es sentially, Judy is a tease. She not only likes to tease men but to tease herself by sug gesting enormous dangers lurk at every turn. She car ries the act one step further by finding herself an audi ence Glenda. The fact is that wolves are not in the majority among males, but most males are quick at taking a hint. If they suspect that a girl wants them to act like a wolf they would hate to fail to meet the occa sion. We don't like to spoil the game by suggesting Judy is probably not in as great dan ger as she likes to imagine. However, as long as her main object is to tease, she is likely to be shrewd enough to choose the teasable type and avoid smarter or more determined men. But curiosity has more than once killed the cat. Judy may skirt gaily around the fringes of danger 100 times and come through unscathed. ; Then her luck could just end. I For all her talk of men and their one-track interests, Judy appears exceptionally naive for her age. Her curiosity is of j the sort usually- shown in whispering, giggling 12-year- olds-only, by virtue of her age, Judy is able to carry things one step further. When a girl is in her late ! teens she should have learned how to handle a variety of ; social situations. She should ; know how to keep conversa-; tion and activity under con trol on a date and be clear i about her values. If she is ; sure of what she wants out of ; a date, she is unlikely to ' consistently run into difficul- j ties with men. I (Copyright 1959. General !

The Cedar Waxwing Is Politest of Birds In all the world of nature, especially in that phase of it that comprises the birds, there is always a constant struggle for food. i Birds at a feeding station push and shove one another, each trying to get more than its fair share. But this does not hold true in all instances. One outstanding exception is the cedar waxwing. These little brown birds with the yellow stripings are so polite to one another and to all other birds that it is a wonder they secure enough food to keep them going. Of all' the birds that may visit a feeding station the wax wings are probably the tam est, naturally gentlest and the most delicate and polite feed ers in birddom. Among them serves, or even between them and any other birds, there is never any pushing or shoving. Wait for Tumult If any other bird approach es, the cedar waxwing will step aside and wait until the tumult dies. Should a pair of waxwings arrive at the same time they are pretty apt to se lect the choicest morsel and hand it to their neighbor. On any feeding station or in their native forests the ce dar . waxwing is about as conspicuous as any feathered creature. On the top of the saucy looking little heads they wear a -top-knot; it sticks out backwards like an unruly cowlick on a boy. On the tip end of the tail feathers is a bright yellow band. The waxwing usually is found in company with others of its own kind. Being as so ciable as a bird can be, they choose to travel and feed in company with others. They show a preference for cedar trees in which to build a nest. Because they are so often found in these trees probably is the reason for the "cedar" part of the common name. The nest in the cedar tree is usually composed of twigs, mosses, twine or strips of bark. The four or five eggs are dull bluish in color, speckled with black. In areas where cedar trees are absent the waxwing, after a little look ing around, will select some other suitable location, seem ing to prefer one that is close to human habitation. Wax-Like Appendages There is a very good reason for the wax part of the name, as it applies to the wings. There are curious wax-like appendages attached to the tips of the secondard wing feathers. Rarely does this condition appear on any of the tail feathers. ' In the late fall, after the nesting season is over, the birds gather for the long mi gration to warmer sections. Throughout the deep South wherever a dense cedar swamp can be found, the birds gather to remain throughout the colder months. They re main mostly in large flocks, feeding and resting in one another's company. Come spring and the flocks move northward, toward the sum mer nesting areas.
