When the key to the livery stable
door was thrown away, the old
fashioned one-armed courtship also
passed >-out of existence. The old
buggy and faithful Ned who pulled
1t, are memories. The moon doesn't
shine any more as it used to and as
to the row of cottonwoods that lined
the road near the four corners, that's
only a resting place for boot owls
whose boot Is drowned out by the
chug-chug of the motor car. Only
in the very rural communities does
old-fashioned love making still flour
ish.
Who doesn't remember his "settin'
out" day when keeping company with
the prettiest girl in town caused
sleepless nights and days of torment
and fear?
Yes, after all those were the days.
Instead of telephoning Mabel: Want
to take a little spin tonight?" 1t was
understood on the way home from
prayer meeting Thursday night that
on the following night you and
Mabel were going out driving. And
you made arrangements at the livery
stable to get the big bay that stepped
out lively and that Concord buggy
with the red wheels and rubber tires.
At 1880 the next night, the man"
drove around to your house and you
pretended you wern't at all nervous
and made him wait a minute while
you took one last look at yourself In
the mirror to see that your tie was
on straight.
Then, you went out, seized the
ribbons" shouted a "giddap" and
started off right straight through
town where the fellers could see you
and nudge each other and say Some
gals going to get look at the moon
tonight" Of. course Mabel wasn't
quite ready so you had to he enter
tanned by her mother or kid sister
until she breezed downstairs. And
after il got good and dark and you
got into the country a ways, didn't
Mabel do the driving and, oh boy! as
they say nowadays.
The younger generation doesn't
know a thing in the world about it.

Where Cooks Think II a Compliment

BY Temple Manning.


Those who are troubled about the
management of their homes these
days when maids and cooks are
hard to find may well sigh and long
for other times or other lands to
solve their perplexities. But which
country of all those upon the face of
the globe should they select? Far
and above every other perhaps, the
Holy Land offers itself. There are
several reasons, any one of which
might determine the choice.
In the first place, there are many
persons in Palestine who like nothing
better than to exchange their homes
for one offered by Frank" In the
