I'LL
Old Gents Won't Say They
Play Poker When Wo-
men Take to Craps.

IT'S sad but true, but the women
and the girls of our town buy the
dice" was the statement made by a
rather shy saleslady in one OF our
leading iewelry stores Tuesday after
noon.
Occasionally a man comes In for
them but il is easy to draw from his
conversation or from the kind Of dice
purchased that he is getting them for
someone of the opposite sex"
From questions asked at various
places it seems that the put and take
top, which was the most popular game
about this time last year. has just
played out
Haven't had call for one of those
tops for long time, so we never carry
them in stock any more" was the
answer received from several merch.

People still like the old game played

about the only thing that can be found
in the modern flappers belongings.
But the flappers like their dice and
so they play with them.
As far as the more settled people arc
concerned, auction briIge is by far the
most popular game-nOt by acclamation
but from all appearances. The extreme
heat has caused the bridge table to be
moved out on the porch or even on the
lawn where Japanese lanters are used
to furnish light.

Claude Benton, of the Thompson.

conclusions, and these are his results.
In an average day 3,9l7 cars pass
along Washington near the intersection
of Main street. over 325 autos pass
along this street every hour during the
day. These figures were given out after
counting the cars that passed in five
minute periods after the hours of IL, 2,
