REIGN OF TALL GIRLS.

AZ Its Height Now, but the Small
Girls Turn Is Coming.
Brigades of exceptionally tall girl
practically rule hospitality all ove'
the country. They need not be prett,
or INTELLIGENT, for they are expected
to do nothing except be tall.
A tall girl season now means thai
every hostess must endeavor to pro
duce a predominating impression o
tallness at her parties. Tall dinner
and tall dances become social ambi
ton; small men find themselves sud
denly useful as an effective means o
creating contrast when semi.Ama
IONS must be entertained.
There is no limit which can be re
garded as reasonable when once tn,
craze for tallness commences, yet q
the moment when with that mysteri

nearly az bad az some covered
in western Pennsylvania, on
the last two Glidden tours.
Fridays run will be to
Minneapolis, completing the
first weeks run, for a rest OF
two days will be made at that
point. Much has been arrang-
ed in the way of entertainment
by the motorists of both Mime.
apolis and St. Paul, and Satur-
day and Sunday should mark
an epoch in this history of
Glidden tours.
On Monday, July 10, the run
will be to Mankato, Mimi, and
on Tuesday to Fort Dodge, la.
Considerable of this territory
is composed of sandy soil, east
err to cover in wet weather than
i'll dry, but the hope will be for
dry weather, nevertheless, for
the worst is still to come.
At Fort Dodge, the tourists
will begin a campaign of Sleep
ing in sleeping cars rather than
in hotels, plan which will be
carried out almost to the end
of the journey.
At Fort Dodge, too, will be-
gin the much dreaded territory
which is a sea of mud when
rain falls, and much rain has
fallen this summer in that Sec
ton. A week ago roads we're
almost impossible for automc-
biles in and around Council
Bluffs, and experienced tour
lists agree that the tour will
come to an end suddenly if
overtaken by rain in the Mis-
souri, valley country.
Wednesday, July 81, the run
will he from Fort Dodge to
Council Bluffs, which appears
to have outgamed Omaha for
the honor of entertaining the
tourists. Great preparations
have been made to welcome the
travellers at Council Bluffs, and
unquestionably both cities will
see much of the tourists.
On the second Thursday of
the tour the run will be long
one to kearnev. Neb., over
roads which are unexcelled
when dry, but impossible
when wet.
On Friday, July 90, another
long run to Julesburg, COL,
where a real cowboy welcome
will be extended, followed on
Saturday by a jaunt of 100
miles to Denver.
At Denver a stop of two days
will be made for mountain
sightseeing and rest, after
which will come four days of
dusty, or muddy, riding to
Kansas City, with night stops
at Hugo, Colo; Oakley and
Salina, Kan, and a short run to
Kansas City.
The entire journey will be
more than $3.50 miles, the
longest tour ever conducted by
the American Automobile as.
