Girl on Settee--I think 1t Is perfect
ly silly-just because he has money!
Why, he's not az all the sort of man
Louise has always said she admired!
Ever since I've known her she has in
sisted that she never could take any
interest in man who did not have
square jaw, stand six feet tall and
have dark olive complexion! And
Sanders
Girl in Hammock can't help laugh
ing at the thought Sanders Black is
so differert-he can't be over five
feet six, can he? And that pale mus
tache ana those ecru eyelashes! oh,
dear! I'm not making fun of him, for
I've no doubt he has the kindest
heart in the world
Girl in GREEN Chair--I saw him kick
Hatties dog the other day
Girl in Hammock-Wh hat bxute!
I've always thought he had a horrid
disposition and just pretended to be
mild and obliging! When there are so
many really nice men in the world it
seems shame that all those millions
belong to him! I'm glad have char
acter enough not to let his posse sions
influence me. II wouldn't make Bit
of difference to me If he had twice as
much shouldn't look at him.
Girl on Settee-I suppose he thinks
there isn't a girl in the world who
wouldn't bow down and worship him
if he gave her a chance How lucky
we aren't all alike! I'm so disappoint-
ed in Louise She is with him all the
time and acts as if she was enjoying
she's so tickled TO pieces thinking we
are all envying her. I'm sure it doesn't
make a particle of difference to me
how much attention he pays her-ho
doesn't interest ne!
Girl in ChairNor me! | demand
some brains in a man. Sanders is all
right in a crowd, but it would simply
bore me to death to have to talk to
him an hour straight think he's
wretchedly conceited, too! He acts
as if nobody else in the world owned
French touring car!
Girl in Hammock-It cost $4,000,
with all the fittings, and took year
to build, | don't suppose it runs any
better, though, than $1,50) car. 1t
can't do any more than have its
wheels so round, no matter what it
cost!
Girl on Settee-We might ask Lou
Use She's out in it nearly every day
She doesn't have decent linen skirts
this year because she has to spend
all her money on automobile wells.
Girl in Hammock-I suppose she
figures that if she gets Sanders it's an
investment instead Of a waste of mon
ey. Goodness! Think of the wardrobe
one could haye
Girl on Settee--I heard that he or
ders a dozen suits at a time. He
couldn't expect his wife to do less,
could he? Wouldn't it be gorgeous?
OF course, with me, however, having
everything on earth would never make
up for other things. / never could
marry man l didn't care an awful
LOT about, |. should have to respect
and admire
Girl in Chair Mercy! | should say
so! And one never conld stand in adj :
hiring awe of Sanders Black! Not
tbof bo'C mot ,,ica oD1 lind
Girl in Hammock-H can't help be
ing short and Insignificant looking.
Did tell you aboIt Louise's coming
up and carrying him away at the coun-
try club when he stopped TO talk to
me? He was polite, of course, but he
looked so disappointed l think the
affair is all on her side. don't believe
he cares about her
Gill en- Settee-Still, he must ask
her TO go or else she wouldn't be with
him al the while. | don't see what he
sees in he".
Girl in Chair think it wreJched
taste always to single out one girl for
rides and entertainments. Not that
/ care if | never so in his old car
I have plenty of automobiling without
him.
Girl in Hammock i, too. 1t doesn't
bother me in the least think he's
tiresome when You come right down
to it. I've never encouraged him.
Girl on Settee--Listenl That's his
car nowl I know the peculiar horn!
Why, he's slowing up here!
\ (The three tumble to their feet and
a wild scramble to adjust pompadours
and belts ensues. A young man as
cends the steps.
Sanders BIack-Good-morning, Miss
Barker. I'm going for spin in the
country and stopped to see if you and
your guests wouldn't like to take the
ride with me-
Girl of the Hammock how
perfectly lovely Of you, Mr.. Black
Girl Of the Settee-In that grand
car Of yours too!
Girl Of the Chair How charming Of
you!
Chorus-Just sit down a minute till
we get ready!
Girl Of the Hammock-And have
some of this raspberry lemonade
Girl of the Scttee-And here are
plenty of magazines!
