Topeka, Kan, Nov 81, 1920.
Dear Elizabeth: You know that I
am all prepared to argue with anyone
who disputes me that women keep
their word When I started to write
society news, had the impression. 1
suppose gained from hearing people
who didn't know talk, that women
said one thing and did another. But
they don't, and if a woman tells you
that she is going to give you a piece
of news and will save it for you, she
does it. or If some one else is to do 1t,
she sees that il is done. You may not
agree with me, Elizabeth. but just once
hunt news for society colin and you'll
find out that whatever fooliShness men
tell about women not keeping their
word is not true, for they do.
We didn't have anything real excit-
the football game. Several Topeka
hostesses were fearful of the holding
out powers of their Thanksgiving food.
It's two entirely different things to
serve Thanksgiving dinner to a boy
before he's been to a football game
and to serve it to the same boy after
he has attended one; has shouted,
waved his arms, yelled and jumped up
and down like a mad man. suppose a
good big part of Topeka has been eat
ing warmed over dressing and turkey
croquettes the last two days.
AT one of the downtown restaurants
a mother, father and their little son
were eating. The little fellow has
been taught to always eat whatever he
has had served on his plate before he
can ask for something else. AS fast as
he drank the water at his plate it was
filled up again. After he had emptied
1t the third time he sat the glass down,
drew Ions sigh and remarked to his
mother, That's the last time I'm going
to drink that glass of water, and the
man don't need to fill it up again, for
1 won't drink it,
A Topeka man who is an old bach
and who has eaten his meals down
town for years has been so embar-
raised every time he thinks of his
Thanksgiving dinner, for while he was
talking that day at the table he no
closely and to his horror he suddenly
became aware that he had picked up
his napkin and was polishing his plate
with it.
One Thanksgiving eve bride and
bridegroom were certainly showered
with rice down at the depot. The
Jokesters had a bMass band, truck to
hauf~a piano on, printed circulars and
everything ready for the fun that
evening. but the newly married folks
gave them the slip and the jokers
followed a strange car over half of
the streets of Topeka before they dis
covered their mistake. Anyway this
newly married couple Jared better
than the bride and bridegroom of the
first of the month, for In the mad
struggle at the depot, the little bride
had the sleeve torn out of her coat.
