was declared the winner.
Bill Rusk and William Andrews

fine Mrs. Brown and Carrie will
have to take separate compartments
going home, since they have gotten
so fleshy. They surely do look good.
Last but not least of the notables

sure been prominent on the pyke. She
and Bill Trumble barely escaped be
