Mrs. Thompson will answer all five of Helen's questions.  In regards to question number two, there are two words that Helen can say to the guy.  Every correct answer is worth two points.

1. Take the damn hat and coat
2. Call again
3. Yes.
4. Any place? No but he can take you some places.
5. Hussies ask, ladies wait and twiddle themselves during the lonely hours.

Congratulations to @anniem.  You are the winner of the What Will Mrs. Thompson Say? contest for the month of November!

First Place: anniem: 242 points
Second Place: @FISH: 230 points
Third Place: @juan: 212 points
Fourth Place: @Aquarius: 190 points
Fifth Place: @Mr Apnea: 162 points


Thanks to everyone who played the What Will Mrs. Thompson Say? contest during the month of November.

Now is your chance to join an elite group of players in trying to guess what Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson will be saying in her advice column. The best time to join up is at the start of each month.   

New quizzes for December will begin on December 2.  The more you play, the more likely you are to accumulate points.


I believe that @anniem sneaks into Mrs. T's  office when it is closed. AND Rikki is sleeping on the sofa in the office. ::) cheaters never win
The only reason I hold a second place win, is because I have a "blackhead" file on Mrs. T.
Congratulations to all, especially Anniem.

1. Show some class and take the hat and coat. 
2. Ask him to call again.
3. Yes, is the proper thing to do.
4. Only the proper place.
5. No, you are batnuts with these questions.

1: it is polite to do so
2:visit anytime
3: possibly
4:only with chaperone or group
5: you answered your own question
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

1. Taking his hat and coat is the epitome of politeness.

2. "Come again!"

3. Yes, he will let you know.

4. Yes, that's fine.

5. Agree 100%.  (Note: is there a typo in the question?  It seems to make more sense if the last clause read "unless HE shows some inclination to do so."  As it's written, she's saying that she thinks it's wrong for a girl who's not inclined to ask a young man to call on her to do so anyway.  It's more likely that she meant that it's wrong for a girl to ask the man to call unless he shows some interest in doing so.

@anniem is channeling Mrs. T again! Isn’t that technically cheating? Good job!

Oh that's right @FISH.  I meant to show the actual caption along with the final results, but I forgot.  The actual caption on the latest illustration was 'Gasping, she pushed Alan from her.'  The source material will be revealed at a later time.

Oh my! What section of the paper was that in!?!
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.
