MENANDIER.

bloomed love. And the husband
doesn't know the wife has been
working.
He's an ofay, son of prominent
st. Paul family. He's in love with
a lovely brown-skinned child, and
she only laughs at him. She's afraid
of liking him and snubs him con-
tinually. His family knows about
the affair and admires the girl for
her attitude. He will leave next
week for Europe to forget-if he
can. A blind beggar in st. Paul
says Aframericans are more liberal
and sympathetic. Five out of ten
colored folks will leave a coin in
his cap and they seldom take pen
Gil. Only three out of ten ofays
drop money and one of the three
takes a pencil! -.
Topics of No Particular Value
One of the Twin City matrons who
highly entertained a Kansas City
family visiting here the past sum-
mer went down to K. C. the other
week-thereby hangs a tale. Her
former guests told her over the
phone they had severe illness in the
family-in fact they were quaran-
tined. Imagine the embarrass-
ment all around when seat neigh
bors in the darkened Lincoln thea
tire in K. C. the same night proved
to be the whole family who had
been wined and dined by the visit
ing matron in the Twin Cities. The
woman in the family lamely ex-
planned that the quarantine had
been lifted!
Reason Enough: The reason more
radio programs contain no Afra-
mericans is that the cullud breth-
rem are loath to write the radio
stations in praise of the various
Race performers. A check of a ma
tionally known Race stars fan mail
revealed one letter in 450 came
from a colored listener. All this
despite Negroes buy more radios
than any other national group.

away look in her eyes. The very
bright young man who escorted
two girls to a recent party and

One femme had everything
complete for a recent party, but
the invitation, which is so neces-
sary these days. The gel who
used to always be singing, "I'm
Putting All My Eggs in One Bas-

off to three baskets if the current
gossip has a foundation. One
of st. Paul's pampered, young,
sweet daughters was seen making
a creep on Rondo, between Arundel
and Western, one evening last
week. Careful, now! Mama might

distant future. Tune in on WMIN

her husband or what have you so
overrated that she thinks someone
