There was once a girl who trusted

quotations. proverb from the German:
AS one shouts into the forest so echo
returns to you"
She met the world on a basis Of trust
ing good fellowship and the world seldom
failed her.
Clerks in shops rewarded amiability
with interest; walters in hotels showed
an intelligent desire to please. Men who
found that she was always on time for
engagements seldom kept her waiting to

save kindly courtesy spoke we'll of her;
hostesses who discovered tnat she was
punctilious about keeping engagements
invited her to all their most interesting
parties. Lucille gave the world the square
deal of trust and honesty and the world
awarded her prizes in most of its games
Then she met man of whose weak
good looks any psychologist might have
told her a few very unpleasant truths
She, however. was not a psychologist
SO she followed numerous OF her sisters
before her and fell very much in love
with George. George plumed himself on
conquest, introduced Lucille to friends as
characterless as himself and threw her
over without compunction at the end of a

had mastered such watchwords as: You
