Some of the Topeka men insisted
on tipping the national guards in
charge of the cloak rooms where the
wraps were checked last night at the
inaugural reception. The guards thus
approached were very much insulted
and considered it a breach of ETH
quette on the part of the Topeka men
who generally are noted for doing the
correct thing.

I'M GLAD, TOO
! We see her so much, and oh. she is
such a lovable sweet old lady, her
hair is so white and her eyes are so
+gright, and she smiles so sweet at
| our baby. AS my wife and 1. fire.
| Quently go by, her house, when we go
for our walk, she always comes out
| and I never doubt, but that Wen have
| a dandy good talk. She's dear little
thing. with her talk she will bring,
much happiness into your soul, she
/ laughs and she smiles, with a greeting
| worth while. her dear big hearts made
| of gold. But to us here of late, it
| seems that old Fate, has been rather
mean to her, her face seemed so sad, her
| eyes were not glad, and we wondered
| what had occurred. She seemed sort
| of worried, her thoughts seemed so
Hurried, and her smile was minus its
vim. She moved rather slow, and was
starting to show, that old age was
| working within. And the last few
| days. as we happened her way, she
didn't come out to greet US. 1t wor-
ried us so. cause we didn't know, her
down-heartedness plumb beat US. But
! today as we passed, We heard her
sweet laugh. and her eyes had lost all
their sorrow, Cause she's happy today.
| cause he's on his way, from France
and will be home tomorrow.
