to administer to the gentlemen some
needed lessons in ballroom eti-
'quette, that will give them chance
to do some heavy thinking. We
hope they got it good and hard.
To do one thing and do it we'll is
more to be commended and is of
more benefit to humanity than to

Seek men of ability and experience.
