THERE'S A GIRL IN OUR TOWN,
an advanced student at washburn
college, who is relating this expert
ence.
"A man told me he wanted to bring
his cousin out to see me the other
night. The only cousin I knew that
the man possessed is one who plans
to enter Washburn next fall. So when
they came I said to myself Get out
the cradle, grandma, and make the
best of it, / struggled to be as young
and frivolous as possible. 1 giggled
at his witticisms: 1 talked of exceed
ingly light subjects; / expressed a de-
sire for crackerjack when he offered
to purchase some; I requested him to
shell some peanuts, and divide them
up exactly even. Which he did. He
seemed to be as Juvenile as I tried to
be, and I thought 1 had managed the
evening better than I had expected.
But I am now recuperating from the
information that the cousin was not
the one who plans to enter Washburn.
