The Globe says that Atchison girls are
not wallf1owers because when all the
dances On their programmes are not ia
ken they sneak off to the dressing room
to fuss with their hair and pull down
their belts and dab powder on their
noses until the dance is over. The more
girl hears about other towns the bet
ter she likes Topeka. In Topeka there
are no wall flowers because there are
five or six extra men at every party
and most of the girls could fill their
programmes three times ever. Not only
are there plenty of men for all the girls
in town but a good number of eligibles
left over and unclaimed whom the right
girl could land easily. Topeka is the
best town in the world for a girl and
every girl who ever lived or visited here
admits it.
A little girl visiting in Topeka woke
up the other morning after a big wind
and looking out on the bare and leafless
trees asked, "Aunty, what makes you
all shave your trees out here?''

BILE football rivals-it was a big event

ed, too, with her thoughts far away on
eleven husky youths and running to the
telephone every deal to ask the score.
The other girls endured it patiently
as they could for a long time but when,
finally, she lost two points on her own
make, the good nature of her partner
was exhausted, and she was called,
good and proper. We'll" she said alb

phone. 81 have so much on my mind
