treated her like doll: when she be-
came an athlethic girl they treated
her like chum. She had tried pray.
or and got no response unless the
blessing was in not getting man. so
she had concluded she would next try
hypnotism or mental science.
The first bachelor declared he was
good looking. had enough money to
support home and wanted to marry.
But he had never met a girl who in
spired him with enough assurance he
would not be turned down II he pro.
posed to her.
The next speaker said she was
single because there were so many
men like the one who had just spoken.
"Yon want us to propose to you"
she said. Nothing venture, nothing
win. | want to be carried by storm"
The next bach declared that he had
loved only once. He was one OF the
daring sort. but after interviewing the
girls father they carried him home
on a shutter. Never again.
The next girl explained that she
spent so much time learning to cook
and sew for prospective husband
