This Year

TregO, who in the last issue of The
Republican ressurected his bachelor
column, failed either Intentionally or
Internationally to provide column
for this issue, so the clerks are
playing"
These bachelor articles are inter-
esting, especially to bachelor and
this bachelor ESQ called) wanted
nothing better than the chance to
substitute for Mr.. Trego and give
some of his own views ON the sub
ject. And not only his own views,
but also some of the information Mr..
Trego put out four years ago when
the series was first started.
Mr.. ,Trego is away this week, mix
ing with the solons at the state
capital, and some of his classics of
former years are due for run in
this paper during his absence. So
here goes, the Bachelors column,
with some of the old articles and
some new ones.
Some New Dope
He was wise guy who framed
up our present calendar, but he
didn't have the best interests of the
multitude of bashful land we're all
bashfuD bachelors at heart. Else
why should he have only given us,
one leap year in four? 1t isn't often
enough and then to allow only one
day out of the year for the blushing
damsel to pop the question. It's all
Wy oil U.s.
This year, that day of days in
which the fairer sex has the privilege
of stepping out and picking the man
of her choice, falls on Sunday and
being Sunday it surely ought to
bring a lot of results. Sunday, Feb.
20, that's the day, and if the county
clerk doesn't have busy. time the
forepart of March then the girls of
this part of the country won't have
followed instructions very closely.
Sunday has ever been good day
for those little heart-to-heart talks
and when it falls on the one day in
four years that you girls can say the
word, well, pickings should be good.
The only difficulty will be if Sun
day is bright, warm, sunshiny day
and much more enjoyable outside
than in. 1t takes rather polished
article to put the question over
when you are walking down the
street, but have hope, use your in
fluence for rainy, clustering day
outside and you'll have a walkaway.
Follow the instructions given below
carefully, you women, and you can
expect a trip to California before
good weather comes here.
Choose Him First
The first thing to do is to choose
the lucky man and that should be
easy because there are several of us
running around town more or less
aimlessly. Invite one of us up to
spend the afternoon or the evening
and before we get there be sure and
set the stage for the party. You
needs must have large easy chair
or davenport with plenty of cushions
and have it drawn closely to a warm
cheerful fire. Don't have too much |
light in the room, just enough to
create that intimate atmosphere"
Theda Bara and the rest of the
movie stars consider the proper
article. Then when he pounds on
the front door, run to open it, take
his rough mitt in your soft white
hand and lead him to the scene of
operations. You won't have to steer
him to the easy chair or davenport,
that's the first place he'll head for.
Get him comfortably settled, arrange
! few cushions back of his head so
he'll be sure and recognize one Of the
many comforts you can provide for
lin, and start the battle.
Be Diplomatic
You have to use diplomacy and
'ou have to be smooth in your work
ind right at this point is the most
particular little movement you have
o make. Ease up against him
,ently and to divert his mind from
our purpose, because he'll be sus-
'icious, start to telling him about
low you wished spring would hurry
lp and come and then proceed to tell
bout what fine time you had Sat-
lrday night and in the midst of it
III, suddenly stop, heave a long
lrawn out sigh, and lean towards
lin, ever so careful that you don't
ute touch him. He'll naturally
urn to look at you and give you
he once over and its important that

ong lashes dropping gently on your
oft, delicately tinted cheek; its inn
ortant that he have an opportunity
D fully observe your tender, rose
olored lips, half parted; it's import
mt that he catch the indescribable
LAGRANGE Of your wonderful hair.
AXE time, let him look at you care
lilly, let him come to the realization
the wonder Of you, then slowly
pen your eyes, let him gaze down
ito them, deep into those shining
Dolls Of light, let him read all Of the
We and pent-up longing that they
'ntain, then sway slightly towards

lir touch his cheek-gosh, you

d besides we are reminded of an
