HOW TO IMPRESS
THE SUMMER MAN.
1t is Hard Work and When You Get
Through You VIII Look Like Ono
of the Famine Sufferers In India.
By Virginia Earle,


Perhaps it's because summer girls
are numerous and summer men are
scarce that the question How to I'm
press the Summer Man" becomes i'm
portant.
In the first place his impressonabil-
ity is limited by his salary The most
1udicious work won't get more than
two ice creams day out of a $40
week man. Don't expect more.
OFTEN when man is impressed the
salary business keeps him from making
1t patent or satisfactory. So when he
looks sad don't keep asking him what
IS the matter.
or course the summer man knows
that all the girls are angling for him.
He's not caught by any old-fashioned
bait.
The only way to impress him, so far
as my observation goes, is by self-sac-
rifice. Girls who don't want to prac.
tice that distinctively feminine rite in
hot weather had better pose as strong
minded females who scorn such poor.
Insignificant creatures as men.
saw one girl impress six men in
one season. She looked like one Of
the famine sufferers in India when
she got through. She had to take the
rest cure all winter. These are her
rules:
If man likes swimming and stunts
in the water, play mermaid. Be care
full not to call on him to rescue you
from drowning. He might be afraid to
risk his valuable life. knowing how
scarce summer men are and how very,
very plentiful are summer girls. That
would show great consideration for
others. He would be hero.
II he plays golf, you must play golf,
too, and always let him beat. He
likes to feel in his secret heart that
he is playing with you not because he
likes you, but because he is noble and
unselfish enough to try to teach you.
That is masculine popularity.
If he goes in for billiards and gin
rickeys. tell him how much you admire
scientific and intellectual men like
himself. 1t will please him because he
will believe It.
If he reads all sorts Of dull, stupid
books and is very learned, tell him
about Coney Island and ask him the
oonundrums you heard when you were
an infant. 1t will be new and very
funny to him.

! One season, indeed, will suffice to re-
veal to the ordinary girl all that she
can ever know about the summer man.
1t is, of cours, the opinion of most
women that men are so much alike"
| At summer resorts they are appal-

I Were you ever really surprised by
any type of man that loomed up at

being very young summer girl and of
being able to pack ones illusions with
ones organizes and shirt waists on
leaving home for the summer?
In which case one is not obliged to
anticipate in advance the Man Who
Can't Be Snubbed who is one of the
familiar and inevitably horrors of sum-
mer resort life. He will secure an in

are unpacked, will insist ON teaching
you to swim before the day is over, and
will devote the evening to establishing

endeavor to resist all this. But he is
the Man Who Can't Be Snubbed.
But, after all, perhaps you prefer him

make mushy remarks about sunsets
and even mushier ones about moon

about for an hour for chance to tell
you that you look like flower, but
whom you do not annihilate for fear
the only other man in the place may

Then, there is the Widower. Some
times he is a real widower, sometimes
he only hypnotizes himself into believ-
ing that he is one. In either case he is
very middle-aged and very dull and
very much in evidence at bathing
time. No one has ever yet told the
Widower how unbecoming a bathing
costume is to him. And the most
cheerful feature of his annual appear

Her Negro Lover-In Jail at
CIarksburg.
Special to the Register.
HARRISBURG, w. Va. August IL
Edna Hudson. whose escapade at Steub-
enville, Ohio, was noted in the Register,
has not repented.
Edna Hudson is only 16 years old,
but she is many moons in advance of
her age in the wicked ways of the
world She is the daughter of Mary
Hudson, who lives just east of the
Dublin bridge, across Elk, and she is
now in Jail awaiting transportation to
the Girls Industrial Home
Jno. Pryor, whose right name is
John King, is a 22-year-old freckled-
faced, yellow negro. who has been
working for Jno. Koblegard.
Edna fell in love with John, and
she admits that their courtship has
extended over a period of three years
Last Saturday night Edna went to
the Manion show, in Glen Elk, with q
white boy, named Eustace McWh0rter
Before the show was out she left hur-
riedly, saying that she was going to
the depot and didn't want Eustace to
rubber" At the station she met
Pryor, who gave her money to buy a
ticket to Grafton. Arriving there, she
put up at the Central Hotel, and Sun
day morning took passage with Pryor
for Wheeling. From Wheeling the prec
ious pair went to Bridgeport, Ohio, and
thence to Steubenville. The police nab
bed them at that point and Edna was
shipped back home Pryor was left in
jail at Steubenville pending the arrival
of requisition papers, charged with
kidnapping.
Edna was intervieweS by a reporter
Wednesday afternoon at the jail She is
a slovely looking, pimple-faced little crea-
ture; dead-eyed and stupid. She has prob
ably sinned because she knew no better.
She told the story of her escapade as set
forth, and admitted her love for the At
ricander. In answer to an inquiry she
said: 81 love John better than any one I
ever knew. He is the only person who
was ever kind to me, and l would marry
him tomorrow if I were out of here. /
know it's against the law for white girls
to marry black men here. but you can
marry them in Ohio. I suppose they will
send me to the Reform School. but l will
marry him when l get out"
A story like the above seems almost i'm
possible but as a. matter of fact IL Is by
no means an isolated case in this commu-
nifty. There are dozens OF similar cases
right here in this city and half-drunken
negroes can be frequently heard upon the
streets Boosting of successful adventures
with white women The police court is
frequently called upon to pass sentence
upon white women and negro men who
cohabit together. The notorious prosti-
tute "Hollyhock," is now in Jail doing
time for similar offense, and it is not
long since Roxy Clemins, a comely white
girl of H. answered to a like charge be-
fore the mayor. If missionaries were sent
TO the slums of Clarksburg rather than
to the slums of Pekin, there would be less
war and more virtue, regardless of poll
tics.
