Page forty-eight THE WITAN '63 Dear Kitty, I have just recently entered Charlotte High School. They say that I am good-looking. Is this why the girls insist upon rushing me? Your idea is all wrong, my dear boy. It is only because you are one of the few new masculine possibilities at Charlotte that you are, as you say, being rushed. Kitty. Dear Miss Catt, I am greatly worried. I dress neatly, I am beautiful, I can hold an intelligent conversa- tion, I am always rushed upon first arrival, but dropped immediately. Why? Perhaps your conversations are centered around yourself too much. Kitty. Dear Pussy, VVhy do my male acquaintances last for such a short time? I give them all I can and later they barely speak. Now I am going with a soccer hero. XVill it last? Is it advisable to go after other girls' S. Ps. Qsecret passionj ? Perhaps you give them too much. Most men prefer that which is hard to get. In answer to your last question-be careful, you will get into hot water some day. Kitty Dear Kitty, I am a jovial P. G. XVhy am I considered an undergraduate? Perhaps you look as young as you act. Kitty. Dear Miss Katt, On attaining the age of sixteen and about to graduate from Junior lligh School, I had hoped to become more respected by the older pupils and by junior high pupils by acting more friendly. But my hopes were not ful- Hlled. XVhy? Hopeless. Dear Hopeless, Perhaps you are too friendly. Maybe your features are too large, especially your mouth. Kitty. Dear Miss Puss, l have a little Boston terrier that I can not break of nightly preambulations. I have to go around calling, Beany , until I am about ready to burst. VVhat would you advise doing? I think you would be just as well off if you iust let her come home herself. You will save your strength and also allow the neighbors to have a peaceful sleep. Kitty.
