The organization in North Topeka
of club for business girls. under the
direction of Mrs. Ethel Fisk Moore.
general secretary of the Y. w. C. A..
is contemplated. If enough interest is
taken in the plan the club will be or
ganized shortly. and meetings will be
held on Monday evenings at the Com
munity house.
A business woman whose daily fare
is partaken of at restaurants and cafes,
was invited out to dinner yesterday.
When asked what part of the turkey
she preferred she exclaimed ''Oh give
get bone at the restaurants and I'm
hungry to gnaw one" More than one
bone fell to her share and her gnawing
hunger was appeased.
When the L. p Faser home in
Madison street was entered thru an
unlocked kitchen door last Sunday
while the family was absent, and a
chicken drumstick and a piece of
mince pie devoured, Mr.. Faser's sus-
picions were centered on two persons.
A notice o9 the entrance appeared in
Monday evenings Journal, when it
was stated if the intruder would 'fess
up, no embarrassing questions would
be asked. A response came that even
ing when a friend of the family called
up and told how she had called and
finding the door unlocked had entered
the house. Finding no one home, and
the chicken mutely extending an in
vitation. she sampled it. Her brother
.in-law and sister. who were with her.
altho they did not partake of the free
lunch, egged her on to the pie by say
ing, Bet you that's the best mince
pie in town" And if it wasn't, it will
have to- be proved by some one else
than Miss d. Meanor.
But the funny part is that she had
not been suspected. So much for
guilty conscience.
