Editorial Comment
Irwin Cobb and Anatomy

(Jay E. House in Public Ledger
Irwin Cobb's testimony in the Car
roll case was that he walked out on
the show. We have spoken to Mr..
Cobb but once. That was in front OF
the Congress Hotel in Chicago dur
ing the World Series Of 1917. He
may have forgotten the incident. To
refresh his memory, we reveal the
fact that we are the gentleman who
effected a personal introduction while
he was waiting for a. taxi. This
merely is to say we think we'd like
to know him better. He seems to De
our sort.
But whether Mr.. Cobb comes along
or remains behind, we intend to con-
tinue firm in our contention that an
atomy, unless it be invested with i'm
agination. is a study for medical stu
dents and not a source of public en-
tertainment.

credited area is designated where
less than one-half of one per cent OF

Reports from two Eastern states test

testing before the disease has spread
very much. 1t is estimated that over
10000 children contract tuberculosis
through milk every year in the state
of New York alone, so having Vhe

deal from this standpoint.

Dear Miss Flo:-I'm very much IN

don't think she even knows Pm liv-
ing. Sometimes meet her at dances
and different places, and she is al
ways very friendly, but by the time
l think of something to say-she's
gone. How does a man win a woman
anyway, Miss Flo? What should he
talk about? Does he treat her rough
or is he kind and considerate. Does
he tell her how popular he is with
other girls-or does he tell her that
he never goes out with girls p? The
girl love. is very popular, and while
Pm fairly good-looking, fairly good
dancer, and a fairly good dresser,
don't seem to be making much of a
hit with her. It's easy fer a girl to
get any man she wants-all she has
to do is to flatter him little, and the
first thing he knows he is paying the
first installment on the furniture, but
with a man it's different-especially
a man who is sort of bashful to start
with. Fred.

Well, Freddie, the first thing
should advise you to do is to learn
to ak to wonderland the next time
you meet this wonderful girl don't let
her get away until you have said
something particularly nice. Girls
like men to entertain them with
bright chatter, merry cracks and fun
ny jests. | read an article one time
that was written by a bigamist who
had been married eighteen times. He
said it was the easiest thing in the
world to win any woman-all you
had to do was just talk to them about
themselves. And I think that theory
still holds good.
Women like to be fattered. They
love it. You need have no fear that
you are boring a woman as long a,
you are telling her that she has won.

smile, because she has such a pretty
