Bike Fanness." Poor me, / really
don't know, how I will live through
it. One in particular that L have in
mind Is the item written by our new
acquaintance, Little Dotty." l am
positive Little Dotty" is some real
short girl with rather too long
dresses, her hair fixed in the Spring
Maid" fashion and with very boyish
ways for a girl of seventeen; also pic
ture her at the races. She thinks she
knows all the riders, and when asked
their names says that Cameron is
Anderson and Spears is Kramer.
Well, let's all give three cheers for
dot" for entering our sports and
that she may think of enough items
for you to publish. She says | have
an eye on Kramer and Spears, Hetty
Green roots for Benny Hill and Clark,
others for Goullet and GrendaS but
yours truly for Kramer, Spears and
McDougall. Don't you think I am
right? You ought to see Little Dot"
SAME BIKE F'ANNESS.
Now don't you think you are
little harsh on Little Dot?' You
must remember that that was her
first appearance in our circle and such
criticism may discourage her.
