other state have found themselves
tabooed in the best circles Of San
Antonio, unless they can prove their
social standing.
The society folks of San Antoine
don't want to take any chances of
their daughters falling in love with
common Chicago mechanics Who
because of their ability have been
made captains or IieUtenants in the
militia.
It would be perfectly awful if a
belle of the Alamo would make a
mistake and fall in love with a stock
yards pig sticker, who, because he
was a brave and able soldier had
been made an officer and who be-
cause of good looks and excellent
manners, might pass for a real gen.
according to the San An
tone sOciety's opinion of what a gen.
tleman should be.
And so the social leaders Of San
Antoine have gotten together and are
sounding the slogan: I'VE must pro-
tect our manageable daughters"
To aid in separating the real gen.
tIemen" from the "impossibles" they
have gotten copies Of Dun's, Brad
streets and the Blue Books and, aid
ed by the Chamber Of Commerce, are
making lists of the guardsmen who
have sufficient social standing or
financial standing at home to per-
nit them to gain entree to the best
homes" of San Antonio.
IN the regular army it doesn't mat
ter about the social standing of the
forefathers of an officer; by virtue
of the fact that he is an officer he is
accepted as being good enough for a
higher trust of Uncle Sam and there
fore good enough to go any place on
an equal footing with anyone, no
matter if his dad was a pigsticker.
But in the militia it's different.
