Dear Grace: The week has rolled
along very smoothly, with "a few hour
spent here and there discussing thu
Stillman case, another few talking
about the parking ordinance and an
other hour or two whiled away dis
cussing all the ms and outs Of tn
last broken engagement. I must tel

was thru, and he said, all right, h
was too, and so they parted and tn
wedding to write about. Too bad, an

bought our flivver yet, but a Who'll

a wagon stood on this corner Thurs
day morning from 1O:45 o'clock unit
after o'clock that afternoon. On
humane person besought the polio
and everyone else to move him on
OF the sun, but still he remained tie
there. Speaking about parking, some
one tells a joke on one of the mel
chants. 1t seems that four, sur
burned, bewhiskered men drove up l
front of the - in a Ford. U
came the traffic cop. "Remembe
there" he warned, "you can't par
