1t certainly is the reason. And the
girls themselves are to blame.

She wishes that all girls could set
together on this question. What a lot
of wholesome snubbing the men would
receive If girls could get together on
an Auti-PedCstal platform, Such a
Love Trust is more needed than many
of the labor unions. Under present
conditions, If A. snubs her lover for
his seltishness. a girl named B. smiles
at him all the more tenderly, and he
transfers his attentions and his al
legged heart to b. Because of this I'M
commendable trait which leads one
girl to fly with ointment when another
girl administers a deserved punish
ment, the men continue on their self
satisfied, imperious, unrebuked way.
II girls will stand together. and
make one girls wrongs all their
wrongs; if they WIFI be as loyal to the
rules OF the love game as they are TO
the rules of labor unions the idols
