Dear Elizabeth: Now that our spring |
brides are beginning to make them /
selves known, social events are taking /
on more frivolous air and mixed in
with the round of bridge clubs, benefit |
bridges and teas and dances we have
had all winter we society reporters 1
are having a few things to write
about brides. Not all of the spring
brides have declared their intentions,
however. for there are several who
have not announced their engage
ments as yet.
One of these is an attractive Wash
burn girl, prominent in musical cir
cles, who will be married to one of
Topeka's young photogra pliers. Then
of olive skin and dark eyes, who is
to be married this spring to an out
OF town business man. One of our |
brides will be a girl who has been
out of town for several years but who
has come home this spring to do the
thing up in a hurry" as she said the
other day. Another engaged girl, but
who will not arrive at the bridal stage
until next year. is a popular Wash
burn girl. engaged to a Washburn
senior. Two former X u. girls are
and are to be married this
spring, so says rufnor, and then in
addition to these there is the older
10 an insurance man.
But not all of the rumors are con-
,erned with weddings for Dame Ru-
nor says that there are three Topeka
couples who are to be 'unwedded''
his spring Seems a shame, too, for
hey are such fine people, all of them.
one Sunday not so long ago, a To-
1eka man and his wife played one OF
he leading roles in a little scene en-
lcted in front of the Baltimore hotel
n Kansas City. They had just come
tut of the hotel when their attention
vas attracted toward a crowd gath
sred around what seemed to be a
light BY standing on tiptoe they
,ould see two little newsboys fighting.
One of them was strong and husky
md the other one was ragged. pale
md undernourished. AS they looked,
he husky little fighter knocked the
,ther down and he fell with q thud
o the pavement. The crowd stood
lrging them on. The Topeka man
couldn't stand to see the little chap
Town and out, so he shouldered his
way thru the crowd. pick up the un-
conscious newsie and carried him out
II the crowd. He and his wife
