The Parental Problem of Dating
God's Detroit Tribune presents from the N. Y. Herald
Tribune
The Worry Clinic
By DR. GEORGE W. CRANE
Case P-356: Hal D., aged forty-two, is a factory foreman
and father of Alma, who was described yesterday.
"Dr. Crane, you have convinced me that I was wrong,"
he admitted, "so I'll be glad to change my rule and let Alma
date this boy. And I appreciate the set of your 'Tests for
Successful Parents.' But how can a man always be sure that
his daughter is going with the right sort of young fellow?
"If they just come to the door to take a girl out, that
doesn't give a father much chance to size up the boy, does it?"
No, that in itself is not an adequate test for a boy friend
of one's daughter. But a smart girl should prime her parents
in advance by outlining the background and qualifications of
her suitor.

Factory foreman Hal D., father of Alma, admits he was wrong in his dating rule for his daughter and agrees to let her date the boy, appreciating Dr. Crane's tests for parents, but asks how to judge the boy's suitability since brief visits don't allow sizing him up; advice is that a smart girl should inform parents in advance about her suitor's background.
