A little school girl is said to have
recently made the following rash
statements concerning the sterner
sex. Her composition was on men,
and this is what she said: "Men are
what women marry. They drink and
smoke and swear, and have ever so
many pockets, but they won't go to
church. Perhaps if they wore bonnets
they would. They are more logical
than women and also more geological.
Both men and women have sprung
from monkeys, but the women
certainly sprung further han the
men,"
