Brown,
CuCH predicament as a little friend
u Of mine found herself in last week!
You see, she ami flance went to party
Al one Of the hotels, and they had such
good time they forgot that hours were
Aying, and though they naboed a taxi and
/, Aed TO the Terminal for a o'clock train.
they reached the steps just as the clock
pointed to the mystic hour Of &. m., and
the train on the minute. What to do!
ssThey could not wake up any friends at
Z that hour of the night, neither could they
20 to hotel. What awful predicaments
! convention an gossip put upon us at
times. don't they? We'll" said our hero.
inc, "all can see for us to do is to keep
. going while the going's good"
You remember what night Saturday
was, don't you? Poured cats and dogs II
my memory serves me riyhtD So the
hance called up the hackman out near the
home of the girl ana told him to meet
them at the trolley at $3.50 o'clock. Can
you picture the puldles Of water and snow
out in the country en- Saturday night?
And though the distance from the trolley
to her home was but five minutes, that
unfeeliny hackman charged that poor
! young man just as much as if he had
taken taxi at the station and gone out
. home all the way in that. And you will
admit for an engaged couple a taxi would
have been plea3anter than a trolley car,
en- what? However, they finally reached
home at o'clock a sadder and wiser pair.
Next time they will leave the magic whirl
Of dance in time to go home the regular
. way.
But this particular small fiancee is al.
ways getting into scrapes. She was the
one who fell fiat in front of the Biltmore
IN the pouring rain some months back,
4 ana again put her umbrella up over her
mead in street car. Cheer up, my
friends. they are TO be married In a few
{ months, and perhaps that will bring her
I DOWN to earth Who can tell?
livery day I hear of other branches
! - OF relief work. Now the Allen Lane
oranch of the British relief fund Is to

cresheim Arms in Chestnut Hill to make
