Hello Everybody:

Hello EVeryDOuy'
Once more the glorious Fourth
is rolling around and ! suppose you
are all busy buying the usual as
sortment Of hatchets, popcorn and
firecrackers. / hope no one gets
his head blown off or his heart Bit
ten by the love-bug.
1t is rumored that one of our
prettiest st. Paul brunettes and a
st. Paul sheik are contemplating
a merger. WANT clue? Well, at
present, he's running on the road
and she-well, she's running her
legs off during his absence.) A
perfect match. SAM REED
has gone off for his usual summer
of hard work. Il believe it's on the
boats, amt it?) / know he's left
some sweet girl broken-hearted-
for the present. WALTER
COINS and ANNETTE HATToN
were very engrossed in each other
at the Follies at Halle @. the other
night. By the way, ROSA
MOND COLLIER and ROBERT
HARRIS really sang too fine in
that Stormy Weather scene. They
sang "Sweet September in the
Rain" ADELAIDE SYKES
deserves a pat on the back for the
splendid work she did in the Fol-
lies. That girl can really dance
(and she's cute, along with it). !
1 noticed one rawther cute chap
on the stage with the tall silk hat,
mustache and goatee. He was for
ever cracking his chewing gum and
twisting his beard as the villain
always does when he enters. cot
course, in this case there wasn't
any villain entering, it was the
scene where the bashful bride and
blushing bridegroom entered.) :.
The Modernette's dance Wednesday
night promises to be another gay
evening of dancing and frivolity.
=. The Ultra Modern Club has
issued bids to their first spring
formal Thursday evening. Did
you know JOHN THOMAS had
the honor of addressing the Min
nesota State Legislature last
week? He presented the Mime
sofa Youth Act to the House. From
different remarks / heard, he made
quite an impression. !. Did you
know HARRIET WILLIAMS and
JOHNNY MAXWELL are keeping
kinda steady company? Saw
JUNE HAWKINS today with one
of these swanky, fioppy white hats.
Hreally became her. >. RACHEL
JAMES has the cutest tan gabar-
dine suit. CLAUDE MASON
has popped up with newer model
car. l hear he makes quite a dash
ing figure truckin' down the street
in it. (Er-er, maybe you wouldn't
call it truckin', but, anyway, it's a
good looking carr -. It's funny
l haven't seem some of our fancy
dancers at the parties, doing that
new dance called "Peckin" intro
duced by Cab Galloway. Let's see
someone start the rage at the next
dance. It'll be quite thrilling watch
ing some of our sedate of sedaters
go peckin' across the hall. g.

his most interesting letter received
last week. / am always glad to re-
ceive letters from people express
ing their opinion of the column.
Thanks for your various comph-
ments and also your helpful sug-
gestions. -. This weeks song
about town is "They Can't Take
That Away from Me-" What
attractive Minneapolis girl and one
of our handsome out-of-towners
went canoeing on Lake Calhoun
the other evening? The girl in
mind isn't extremely fond of swim
ming but was in safe keeping
cause the guy in question is a life
saver. g.. Did you know: LII
SHIRLEE HARRIS his been ill and
lost 9 pounds? Did you know:

beat is -? He's got gorgeous
black hair and his last name begins
