Mr.. W. W. Mill and other members
OF the Mills Dry Goods company will
give a dinner Friday night at the Tea
room in celebration of the twenty
fifth anniversary of the founding of
the Mills company.
The girls are talking about organ
izing against the married women.
Time was, out here in the provinces,
when women became Old Folks as
soon as they married. That is, their
social diversions were limited to pink
teas, afternoon cards and the privi-
lege of working themselves to death
to feed the girls and men who ignored
their existence completely afterward.
Not so nowadays The bellies of the
town are the young matrons. Az
dances you can't see'em for the dust
and they have more men callers than
any girl in town. No list of the bellies
of the village is complete without the
names of Mrs John Baird Nicholson,
Mrs. w. S. McClintock. Mrs. William
z. Drechsel Mrs. Charles E. Gault,
Mrs. Fred Cole, Mrs. Charles L.
Mitchell, Mrs. Albert T. Reid, Mrs.
Joe Morgan, Mrs. w. H: Eastman and
some others. and the girls are talking
about forming a union and boycotting
the men who rush them.

peka.

over it. They are assisted by Mrs.
S. E. Barber, Mrs. David E. Palmer

becoming costumes. and the artistic
