oF THE THE FFGoSNlN FOUNTAIN, .!ly;,
Has az Eye On on s9he Iega9p gag !ll Drih' I;
and Admires i,

We take the following from a late
issue Of the Lancaster y Eagle then y
under bachelor management.
ssA GREAT MISTAKE.
According to one OF our Logan
exchanges. the authorities of the
Hooking Valley Ry. are going to put
a stop to the practice of pretty girls
parading up and down the aePot plat
form every time train comes in or
goes out.
Now, this is aot altogether right.
The young and pretty require diver
sion from the daily monotony Of wan.
derlng up and down the deserted
| streets or playing among the rubbish
heaps of their city park. They like
to see humanity in the shape of man,
and the oply opportunity the Logan
girl has OF observing flow is when
she goes to the depot "when the train
comes ln."
Our neighboring town should not
be ashamed of Its girls. They are
pretty, they are vivacious and they
arecharmlng. Their presenrs at the
depot adds luster to the scene and
encircles sunshine to the stranger as
he takes the COW path leadipg,nr to
the town.
The Hooking Valley officials may
be right in some things, but they are
wrong In attempting to drive from
their premises all that is beautiful in
life. Let them be exlled 10 Logan
for a breif period without the privi-
lege of feasting their eyes on the
beauties of the place and see how
quickly they would reverse their or
DER" Instead of sending detectives
to the town to drive the girls away
from the depot, they would extend
invitations for them to come and
come often"
We rise to remark that the good
and pretty girls of Logan do not pa
rade the streets nor infest the depot.
That the Eagle should have an ad-
s,irlng eye upon the so'led doves who
prance around i4 public places is only
explanable IN this, that his tastes are
perverted by the obtrudlng Statute
of a bedraggled tramp on the public
square of his town.
The railroad oficlals are right IN
keeping the class of girls mentioned
from obtrudlng themselves upon the
public.
They are welcome, We infer, to
surround Lancaster depotand disport
their charms with Forest Rose Of the
Fountain. Logan will be glad to be
rid of them.
