Mr.. B. Baer
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
Bates professor says that
love at first sight is the rea-
son why opticians do so
much business. He claims
that Mrs. Newlywed filters
to the spectacle shop and
finds her husband there
ahead OF her.
This may be true about
Bates professors. Bates Coll
lege is up in Maine. The
first State TO pass prohibi-
tion and the last to realize
il. Fortunately, love at first
look still blooms in the rest
of the U. S. Spring Is al
most here with its new
hopes and fears. It's the
time OF the calendar when
Hon and Dearie decide to
lay plans for future alimony
proceedings. 81.
The divorce news lateIy
has been very discouraging
to everybody but lawyers.
One of our wealthiest Blue
boards has been plastered
by the courts because he
bought his wedding rings at
"A wholesale jewelry house.
Another New York million
aire thinks that Tuesdays
and Thursdays are visiting
days in the Court OF Domes-
tic Relations. He fired four
English Wallets because they
put the wrong kind OF sub
poenas on him.
The average marriage In
the 400 lasts just about long
enough for the happy couple
to hook the presents. Guests
at wedding dinner are in
vited to stay over for the
divorce.
The society couple who de-
eide to marry have just
about reached their last
agreement
There should be game
laws in New York limiting
millionalres to a bag of six
teen wives during the ali
mony season. The luxurious
folks establish a bad exam
pie for the rest of us who
still think that a marriage
certificate shouldn't be given
away with every package
Of cigarettes.
Remember the old-fash
ioned wedding photographs?
John is sitting down on a
velvet covered beer keg,
while Minnie stands blush
ingly at his side with a
bouquet OF celluloid mas
turtiums in her oversize
gloves. The old man would
take two untoned prints and
tell the photographer the
others were no good. Then
he'd tone the two prints
himself. Thus saving the
price OF a dozen.
But that sweet sentiment
Is all out now. No more
wedding pictures. If a New
Yorker ordered q dozen pic
lures Of himself and his
wife. there would be n diff
ferent girl on each photo

Houston, TeX.-With communication
into central Texas flood district being
re-established, loss of life and prop
erty damage as result of Friday
nights great deIuge mounts steadily.
Sunday night it had been established
that an area extending north as far
as Georgetown. south to San Antonio
and below, west to San Marcos, east
to Calvert and Bryan, or approximate
ly 10000 square miles, had already felt
the effect of flood water. About eight
more persons, mostly tenants in the
lowlands, are known TO he dead, with
possibility of this being increased
when more accurate reports are avail
able. The list of known dead totals AZ.
Property loss is almost beyond esti-
mate. 1t Is believed that the loss of
growing crops which have been borne
upon the crest of the waters as they
rushed steadily toward the gulf might
run into the millions of dollars. Loss
Of livestock will account for hundreds
of thousands of dollars more, while
tenant houses, fences and Outhouses
with few dwellings. Will probably
run into the tens of thousands.
