According to q story whlch IS go

Keyport, desirious of taking an auto
mobile ride with two nice young
ladies, had a good joke played on
them last Thursday night. 1t IS
said that the young men telephoned
to this city to a lady friend or tnelr 5
and asked her to get those two girls,
stating that they would arrive IN a
machine within a half hour. Thelr
friend in question was unable 10 get
a couple of girls so she dressed up
two male friends in such a manner
that they almost defied detection.
The young men arrived in due tlnle,
were introduced to the young ladles,
took them in their machine and
started for a ride around this clty'
The young men were slightly under
the influence of JOY water, 1t is sald'

1 can't make any promises or tell what
I'll do but 1 can afford to stick it out
