n stone in any direction in Minneapolis
nowadays but what you'd nit some
women who are workin' to get thinner
or thicker I dunno as ever heard OF
men formin' classes to learn how to keep
the love of their wives. P'rhaps they
realize if they once lost it, there isn't
anvthin' they can do. I haven't got
husban' but I can see how serious II
would be if had, an when l had chanst
to listen to one Of the teachers jes did.

himself for looks, but he didn't CLAIM
anythin bout mans birthright beln
