AS you yourscIf 90 nov" '.
I am a stcnographcr
Twenty three years old.
Away off up here in frozen Hartford

I am a blonde
A golden blonde with blue, blue eyes.
And you know. Boss,
How the men fall for blondes
When | walk in the wind
My cheeks are like two wild roses.
And all the men | meet
Turn TO look at me.
Lille looks pretty good to NE, too,
But If | just hated myself
The way Ruth does
Life would simply be not worth living.

And some gray, too.

checks to the order of Hobart II. Todd,
Secretary Of the National Conference
on the Education OF DEPENDENT Truant,
Backward, and Delinquent Children
But that, believes G.. S. j.. is nothing
compared with the pain of having to

Perhaps, offers D. NJ, it was Aphro-

The hotels Of New York are said to
have S5,ooO,0oO worth of liquor on hand
but whether this means that it cost
them $4,000 900 or that they could sell

cost 95c is sold at 60c q drinklct it
makes difference when YOU say
"S5.O00,000 worth" What do YOU mean
worth?

This is one of the days the worlc

TO have it end, too, when we have 6
