NOTHING DOINGI

An urgent s. o. 5. call comes from Germany 20
the United States. It has occurred to about two mill
lion forlorn frauliens that the American men who
made such brave fighters would also make excellent
husbands.
It might not be dincult to find two million mar
rageable in this country. but to find two mill
lion who were willing to the call would be
a different matter.
Also have equal number OF American girls
who want husbands. Hence see little prospect for
any relief from this quarter However, there is one
highly commendable feature of the and that
is the good taste shown in choosing American men.
We thank them, while decline the honor

Valentines are not only sent to
those we like, but also TO those for
whom we entertain no fervid de-
gree of estimation. L refer in these
vague general and totally inadequate
remarks to people like landlords,
icemen, janitors. coalmen, etc.
Sometimes a landlord received on
St. Valentines day a wistful little
appreciation from some tenant
worded practically as follows:
This day to love is set apart,
II makes me think Of YOU. dear heart.
because what's i'm my heart for you
Because what's in my heart for You
From love is oh so different. ooh.
Sending messages Of love on st.
Valentines day is done for the same
reason that a duck goes barefooted.
1t comes natural.

being won by a valentine. For the
first authentic proof that any girl
was ever swept off her feet by
valentine we VIII offer as a prize a

The philosophy OF St Valentines
day is summed up in these lines by
somebody, whose name / can't re-

'Tis sweet TO love
But oh how bitter
