Dawes Ideas to Rule Club
Georges Wife Gets Some
BY NINA WILCOX PUTNAM.


Edgar Allen Poe, the we'll
" known automobile mfgr., said
"A once in his daily newspaper
4 u talks to young people, "A
good little vice president
should be seen, but not heard"
And this come into my mind at
the last meeting of our Ladies' Thurs
day Club, when l got elected vice
president of it. And high time I
was, too. on account l had done the
club a big service by figuring out
how the Hawthorne Ladies' Auxiliary
could pay us the money they owed
US for the use of our clubhouse. My
plan was for us to loan them the
money to do it with.
Well anyways at this meeting, see,
they elected me, although l thought
they was never conner get around
to II, on account of the way the buSi-
ness ahead got woman handled.
The first of this was a vote on
would we have our ice cream from
the Perfection CONNECTIONS or the
Kabin Handy Kitchen this year, and
should it be Neapolitan blocks each
week, or a different flavor at every
meeting?
Well. the most of the ladies wanted
the mixed flavor because a person
can always spoon off their favorite
color in that case and leave the rest
run it's own course. In fact, there
was only four out of the crowd
wanted the club to change its cream
each week
But as of course we use regular
parliamentary rules, why them four
was enough to block the entire vote
until Miss Demeanor, that bottle
blond. got up and introduced bill.
1t was for stationery and supplies
and carried a amendment to serve
only fruit punch and waters.
BY this time all the ladies which
was not yelling Madame Chairman
and trying TO get the floor in order
TO mop it up with some complaint,
was talking in whispers among their
selves.
They didn't seem to give rap
for order, even when Mrs. Goofrah
our chairman raped for 1t, and 1t
made me ashamed of my sect, espe-
cially when | remembered some of
the dandy ladies' clubs I had been at.
where the program was as neat and
snappy as new rubber band.
Well anyways, the next order of
business was the election of officers
and there wasn't much fuss over
that, on account not many girls Is
willing to sacrifice the time TO take
office, they would rather confine
their club activities to grabbing about
how the club is run.
So. Mrs. Goofnah went back in as
pres. and | got elected TO be vice
pres. and the other minor officers re-
newed their subscriptions, and then
at last we got down to the subject
of the day, which was improving the
way our town was governed, and
making its administration less waste
full and etc. and also the cleaning
up of all vice.
4 X X
WELL, no sooner had Mrs. Joe
Bush heard that proposed for a
club activity then she got active her
self, and says now Madame Chairman,
before this is put to vote I would
like to show the ladies why it is far
more important that the club give its
attention to rescuing the homeless
mice of this city and to chloroforming
those who are beyond help. may I have
the floor
Well. naturally Mrs. Goofnah says
yes, and that Mabel Bush took not
alone the floor. but the remainder of
the house and the whole entire rest OF
the afternoon, talking and talking, but
not saying much, and she actually
kept it up until we ladies was obliged
TO adjourn without voting on the civic
program, on account the five fifteen
was pretty near due with a cargo Of
husbands and we had the cars.
Well, when | got George, that's my
husband and drove him home. l told
him where ! had been elected vice
pres, but I didn't ask him the prin-
cipal thing l really wanted to know,
