Talk about your buds-the hit of
the season in that line is a Western
avenue chap who made his debut with
much eclat-Whateve that may be-
week before last. Up to that time he
had been leading the simple life and
preserving his nerve force and COM
plexion and was somewhat on the
modest, shrinking violet order, so that
it was only after much persuasion that
he consented to mingle with the giddy
throng in the local smart set. His
coming out party, hOwver, was an I'M
qualified success, and the verdict he
passed upon it. "If this IS society, me
for it," is likely to become classic. All
the votes being in and counted, it is
decided that he has all the debutantes
beaten a mile for popularity and a
brilliant future in society is freely pre-
dicted for him.

A visiting girl who is spending Sunday
in Topeka is greatly agitated on ac-
count Of two conflicting engagements
which she has made for this afternoon.
There is Topeka man who has always
regarded her as his special charge on
4 the frequent occasions of her visits
I here but the other night at party
she met another man who made some
thlng OF a hit with her-the hit being
mutual Next day her old love heard
about it and telephoned her, imperson-
atlhS the new love and asking her for
an engagement for that night. She re-
GREETED IN her usual exaggerated col
I lege girl form, that she had an engage
/ menl-and how good it must have
sounded to the man at the other end
OF the dine with whom she really had
the engagement. Then ne suggested
that they drive Sunday afternoon if the
weather permitted, and she agreed
lie promised to call her up later and
make arrangements and the conversa-
ton ended.
Later in the day she met the man
and he asked to see her Sunday after
noon. She said she was so sorry-wfth
the same evidences Of sincerity as had
characterized a similar explanation to
him (but intended for the other mani
few hours before-but she had an en-
Sagement He insisted upon knowing
with whom and she told him. Then he
1roze up and talked to her straight. He
didn't think that was any way for her
to treat him and he wasn't going to
I stand for it. She could break that en-
gagement with the other man or say
goodby to him forever, and all that sort
of thing. She looked so very much dis
tressed-that anybody but brute
would have been ashamed of himself
for causing her so much trouble-and
promised to excuse herself to the other
man. She said she hated to do it,
4 (there We're tears in her voice, if not
in her eyes) but if he were going to be
angry about it-wen, she just couldn'
have him angry. etc, etc.
But, 0 these girlsi She went to the
matinee yesterday and before she left
she told her hostess If the new love
called up to tell him it was too cold to
drive but to make an engagement for
him to call Sunday afternoon. And she
thinks she is going to have a perfectly
I lovely time entertaining them both and
watching them doing the agreeable to
one another with murder in their hearts.
i You know these co-eds just naturally
/ love that sort of thing.
