Howdy folks:
Why do so many of our good
jokes ridicule the poor long suffer
ing mother-in-law or the sweet
young bride? Do you know? l
don't either. But here's different
tale and true one. A certain Twin
City father-in-Iaw and a certain
groom of several months back are
suddenly very chummy, patting
each other on the back and all that
sort of thing. They have to be
chummy to save their very skins,
for last week they had the shock
of their lives, meeting each other
at the same house, same hour and
to see the same party. Who was
she? Pm not sure. All l can say
is watch out for these two gentle
men. You will know them by their
sudden affection and Difference for
each other and they are both whis-
ting "Swing, Swing, Father-in-
law"
My, has the love bug ever been
busy for the last couple of weeks.
CLAUDE MASON has popped up
and given MARGE CARTER the
most adorable engagement ring.
And DON SESSIONS has also
given BETTY MARSHALL love-
ly ring. Congrats to both couples.
The love bug seems to have a fer
tile field here in the Twin Cities.
-. TITS said another very popular
S. Mpls. couple are about to an
nounce their engagement. E. What
St. Paul boy borrows whose lii blue
truck to come over to see a certain
Mpls. gal? Since what certain
party dropped out of the picture
who's ERALINE STOKES new
flame? Is ADELAIDE SYKES
heart in Chicago with E. or in st.
Paul with j.? (Now you tell me).
BOB SHOFFNER'S heart is
palpitating in the direction of
PUDDLE LEE in St. Paul. :.
CHARLOTTE CRUMP has an out
of-town girl friend from Des
Moines visiting her. Did you
know HENRIETTA ANDERSON
is back in town visiting friends and
relatives? >. REG (ALBRIGHT)
HARRIS seems to be quite that
way abount BEE SHUCK these
days. The DORIS COINS
BERT SHANNON romance is one
romance that never stops sizzling.
FANNIE BUTLER and AL
HARRIS have cupid on the rope
these days. (Er-er Al do you still
use your different numbered types
of jibe with different gals? Well,
if so, is Fannie just "a" number or
the "main" number? Was just
told OLLIE GRANTHAM has been
appointed to a swell job up the
state. Congrats! Everyone knew
Oiled be success. I guess he's
JUS born that way. e. The ED
HATTON-ETHEL MCGEE two
some had to break up, too bad.
(You know Ethel left for home
... Whose coupe with one of these
"aerialed" radios seems to be
parked in front of ANNETTE
NATIONS house quite a bit late
ly? . The American Legion Pic
mic at Harriet Island last Friday
was quite a success. .. 1t was real
ly interesting to see some of our
prominent matrons admiring their
particular American Legion sheik.
(Of course their husbands.) e.
TELA BURT, IKE MOORE and
MARTIN BROWN were really en-
joying themselves. The base
ball game between the Minneapolis
American Legion boys and the St.
Paul American Legion boys was
the highight of the afternoon.
Both teams gave a splendid per-
Torrance, the St. Paul boys win
ming by small margin. MRS.
FLOSSIE JOHNSON of St. Paul
was JUS so thrilled over the game,
especially when her son hit one of
those home "runnish" hits or what
ever you call them. . MRS. MAE
MARSHALL was another enthusi-
astic ball fan.
Well, folks, I'll have to be hurry
ing along but I'll be SEEM you next
week.
Your pal,
SAL.
