A woman confesses her regret over rejecting Fred, a man from a wealthy family who loved her, because she was insecure about his social status and feared he wouldn't remain faithful. Years later, she realizes too late that she sacrificed true love for material concerns when Fred married another woman. The issue also includes "Second Best," in which a woman reflects on how her insecurity about various suitors' perceived shortcomings—one lacked family approval, another lacked handsomeness, another lacked money—left her alone and unmarried, rejected by the very men she had once dismissed as second-rate options. A "Readers' Corner" section features letters from young female readers seeking advice on dating dilemmas and relationship problems.
