Them Gals.

Rushing home from the laundry
where she worked the other night.
Ruth Williams ran upstairs two at a
time and started to doll up.
She had a date with her beau and
had intended wearing her new hat
and gloves.
But she couldn't find them. She
looked everywhere, but finding them
was out of the question.
She put on her old hat and gloves
and went out to meet him.
She told him her troubles and asked
his help in finding the missing things.
He wasn't very enthusiastic about
the job of hunting up her things. Ruth
flew into a rage and left him.
An hour later, Ruth and Bessie Ste
vens were having a fight in front of
a lunch room.
Ruth had yanked Bessie out of the
place and was busy tearing off the
girls hat and gloves. She swore they
were hers.
And sure enough they were. Jeal-
ousy had prompted Bess to swipe
them.
She is very sorry now. The court
told her thirty days.
