night, have you ever pictured that
other girl-that first love of yours
as your helpmeet, and wondered
how much happier you would have
been, or how unhappy, had you
married her? Have you ever
thought of these things, or asked
yourselves these questions? Others
have, and have answered them.
And wives, what have you
thought? Would your husband ex-
change neat shrew for good
natured sloven? Which would
make him the happier man?
Over in Anacosda they think
about these things. They debate
then-from the mans standpoint.
Anacosha, even if it can't get its
bridge and has Trouble with its
schools, its pOstoffice, and its I'M
paved streets, is rice place. It's
quiet-very quiet. But it's good,
and loyal, and true. It's clean. It
prizes neatneSS, even if the sauce is
spicy.
In Anacostia there is a Baptist
church, and in the church there is
a Mems League, which meets and
debates every other Thursday
night. Heretofore the subjects for
debate have tended to be heavy and
dry, and the Mems League wanted
TO liven things up so it chose as a
topic:
