vania. Oh, well. some people Just ma
turally accumulate things.
One thing I forgot to tell you about
last week, is the Michigan bride who
has recently come to live here is GER
son. She drives the smartest looking
blue car, which is supposed to be gift
to her from her husband.
At one of the dances here recently
some of the college folks who are
home for the summer were doing the
was pretty but then it made you won
der, If one of them should make a
misstep where would his partners
corns be. We ought to be seeing a
lot of new dances this summer, with
the younger set home from the east.
oh, yes, I almost forgot, one of the
boys who stand out in front on the
Avenue and watch the girls go by,
couldn't get his eyebrows out fast
enough by pulling them, so he shaved
them off. and now you had ought to
see him.
One of our lawyers wives; we'll, it's
the only one he has so far, was GER
tainly amused last week. She had a
new frock, hat and shoes which her
husband hadn't seen and stopped into
his office to see him. He was busy in
his private room and so she stood
should appear. She was quite startled
to hear her husbands voice behind her
inquire, What may I do for you, a
divorce, or som ething. perhaps?" And
when she turned around, establishment
and a very teased look tied for first

- 1 hear that in New York the latest
thing to be seen on the street is the
perfume vial attached to bead chain
and daneled from one finger. The
other day saw one of the pretty girls
here down at the hosiery department
of one of the stores and she was
matching her hosiery (sox) very short
ones, too, with her skin. See, if one
has sort of olive colored epidermis, get
hosiery to match. so if in these short
skirted times you wear sox and the
wind blows, the passerbys, or the
stand and lockers on won't be quite so
paralyzed.
The ale Nyou told me about the
street car and the girl was funny, tho
here we don't have a chance to try it
because we have few cars with side
seats. Tho If we did, and some girl
protruding into the aisle, insisted on
doing it, L just know that we would
have the same kind of a woman New
York had, the kind who would take
the crook of her umbrella, deliber-
ately unhook the girls ankle, uncross
her knee and put the foot down where
| it belonged. FRANCES
