St,Ie's the Thing

Tell me, don't they make you smile
Stately girls with lots OF style;
Girls with figures slim and straight,
Throwing glanoes out for bait,
Shedding graoes by the mile'
Making conquests while you waitY
Giggling girls wont do Tor me,
Roly poly though they be-
Rosy girls with pouting lips,
Girls with shoulders, girls with hips
Styles the thing, as you may see
Style abhors a girl who skips!
Take away the girl with curves,
She should have a case OF nerves;
Make her bony, make her svelt
So she'll wriggle through her belti
Make her solemn, we'll that serves:
Take her flesh, but leave her pelt.
Then she's SLIM enough, desist;
Her lost flesh will not be missed
II she wears a stately air,
Bobs her skirts and bobs her hair,
Shows her ankle like her wrist;
Then the girl has style-so there!

That he was right every shrewed

But in almost every town there are
merchants who seem to prefer q

unoften no steam at all. And the
funny part about 1t is that they dom

Assurances reached the state de-
partment from Tampico today that
no foreign owned wells had been set
afire or otherwise damaged az Panneo,
recently captured by the villa foIess.
This served 10 relieve one source ofm
worry at the British embassy, but Of
ficials fear delays and possibly an at
tempt ut double taxation may result
from the fact that while villa troops
control the producing wells, the gulf
terminals at Tampico and TiIxpam are
still in Carranza's hands.
A state department statement today
said:
ut is reported from Tampleo that
the Pannco river is closed to traffic
above Tamesi. The capture OF the
town by General Nilla is confirmed,
and II is stated that no foreigners suf-
fered any damages.
The territory containing practical
~ all the producing oil wells is now
held by the- forces OF General villa,
while General Carranza controls all
the oil terminals In the district of
Tuxpam and Tampico"
