We've been despairing OF the sex;
1t saddened US TO see
How guileful, wileful and complex
The girls have come TO be.
We almost every day peruse
The most alarming tales
OF base devices that they use
To victimize the males.
Their forms. their faces and their
hair,
Like restaurant ice cream
So many misanthropes declare
Are seldom what they seem.
And though our all we'd freely give
To chuck the single life,
We did not think we'd like TO live
With a synthetic wife.
1t therefore cheered us quite a lot
When lately we were told
That Psychologists had got
a line on James of old.
They tell us the Egyptian pips
Wore brief papyrus socks.
Touched up their faces, rouged
their lips,
And bobbed their raven locks.
Our old-time nervousness is gone,
And vanished are our fears,

ID in South Bend.


South Bend leads the nation in prospect
ty.
South Bend is one-hfth better off this
year than it was a year ago.
South Bend has the highest purchasing
power per capita Of all the cities in the
United States
South Bend is just fifty percent better off
than the average of the country.
These statements are no mere guesses, no
idle gossip of those who wish to boost, no
whistling to keep up spirits.
They are vouched for by Roger Babson
whose surveys Of financial conditions of the
country are accepted by business men, bank
ers, and inanciers as the most accurate
gauge obtainable
Every factor which goes to make up bust
ness, all pertinent statistics by which the
general conditions can be estimated, every
element on which prosperity depends is
most carefully weighed and considered.
When Babson talks, the country accepts
his figures as the truth.
In his forecast for business for the month
of December this year, he ranks South Bend
as highest upon his list
His comparison is made with the month
of December of 1920 and his word to mer-
chants, who do business in every city, is to
take their sales sheets for last December,
multiply them by his perez ntage column to
find out the amount of Business they can
expect this December He tells them that
South Bend can spend five dollars this year
where four were spent last
Only two other cities II the United States
are more prosperous this year than they
were a year ago. They are Dayton, O., and
Topeka, Kas One city, Nashville, has kept
upon an even level.
Every other city abov, 10000 population
shows decrease of Pu, chasing power.
His figures mean tina in this city men are
at work, not idle.
His survey proves til at this city is founded
SO firmly and upon so trong basis that not
even a national deAati On stops its progress.
His advice to mere aants shows that here
is plenty, comfort ar d thrift-not idleness,
waste and privation
1t means, most all, that the spirit of
South Bend Is the spirit of optimism, and
that this spirit is backed by determination
and willingness tc work.
South Bend pro duces. Prosperity does
not come from knocking or standing on cor
ners, talking in tie dismal language of dis
Couragement.
To overcome he results of that nation
wide slowing-up Of industry which is evi-
denced by the reports Of other cities, many
men had to put unusual effort to meet the
obstacles and u find new ways of produc-
ing more wealth.
Business is good in South Bend Babson
says so. The people who live here know it.
