Two Topeka men having in a reek-
less moment boosted to their wives
that they could get up better dinner
than the average woman-a better
dinner in fact than the dinners their
wives give-had their bluffs called.
Their wives demanded that they
''show" them. They were game and in
vited the ladies to a dinner which they
themselves agreed to cook. Now they
are asking every man and woman they
meet for culinary pointers and are
even talking about attending the U
and club cooking school. But why
not secure the services of some of the
pretty cooking school girls for tutors
and assistants?

Another heart has been caught on the
rebound. Just because the girl he loved
wouldn't let him light a certain phil
osophical young chap didn't propose to
eat his heart out or NOPE his life away
and sought consolation elsewhere. The
first. one, understood the situation and
her sympathetic attitude was very
sweet and comforting. But now the man
has discovered that it isn't her sympa-

a rap for the first girl. And should the
second girl refuse to assume any other
role than that of CONSIDER he can PRO
badly find a third who will reconcile
him to the loss of the second.
