Hello, Folks:

By Helen n. Scott
Hello, Folks:
When look out the window and
see all this snow, methinks we bet
ter bid adieu to touchdowns, goal
kicks and all the joys and frivoh-
ties which attend our fall sports.
Obviously, old King Winter has ar
rived and from now on we will be
turning our attention to the strenu-
Gus outdoor sports Of skating, ski
ing and tobogganing. And one
of our boys who has been work
ing for a dry goods store for sew
eral weeks, was looking longingly
out the window at the falling snow
when his boss asked him what part
of the business he liked the best.
And he promptly said "the shutting
up, Sir" So the change of seasons
affects all of US one way or another.
Tidbits Here and There: The
DWIGHT REEDS meeting and
greeting friends at one of st.
Pauls night spots last Saturday
night. ED and NINA SAL
TIERS and OLLIE GRANTHOM,
all lookin' mighty fine, were hay-
ing quite tete-a-tete over in their
booth at the same night spot.
BARBARA MCCLURE, MARY
GIBSON and BETTY SESSION
were really giving Minneapolis the
once over the other night and were
they having some fun. Where
was ROBERT MALLORY passing
his time away last Saturday night
=. Booth Echoes: do you know
them?) He: "Gee, honey, you sure
look sharp tonight. Pm glad l
called you up and found your old
man left tonight for his run out to
the Coast" She: yeah, dear, was
glad to hear from you. I'm so
sick of that dead pan old man of
mine; he makes me shudder when
/ think of him" He: "Er-did you
get any money out of him before
he left?" She: "Sure thing, baby,
I've got his whole check" And so
the conversation went on until it
drifted into inaudible tones. Just
heard, though, that the "old man"
is on to the whole thing and is
dashing back to the Twin Cities on
the next train. My! My!
lettings on the Mayor of Bronze
vile Dance at the st. Paul Coli
scum last week: The dancers had
a mighty fine "rug-cutting" time,
dancing to the rhythmical strains
of Ell Herbert and his orchestra.
In fact, if you weren't jitterbug-
cling you just couldn't stay on the
dance floor. D. of st. Paul seemed
to get big kick out of pushing all
the smaller fellows and their dane
ing partners round and round,
showing of his strength and dane
ing ability, did you notice? :.
FLORENCE WARD and her fiance
were really inseparable and nice
lookin' ones at that. Noticed
DICK and MARION WILLIAMS,
who were entering into the dane
ing spirit of the evening with much
zest. ALVIN HARRIS seemed
to be lookin' round quite a bit.
until he spotted someone rawther
interesting, or did she spot him?
People are so clever nowadays that
it's hard to tell who does the spot
ting frst.) JIMMY BRAD
FORD, who wants to be a battling
attorney, got some good experience
battling through the jitterbugs
while trying to dance. GEO.
and RUTH BROOKS were some
mighty interested onlookers,
weren't they? CLARENCE and
MARIE HUGHES were here, there
and everywhere lookin' too, too
happy. :. REV. CARLYLE STEW
ART, Cosmopolitan President of
the Credit Union, dropped in for
a few brief minutes to do some
judging for the Mayoralty contest
and was received intellectually
by the crowd. Mrs. Stewart was
looking very stylish in her silver
fox furs and fur trimmed turban,
did you notice?) =. EDITOR C.
E. NEWMAN and BETTER HALF
were among the bright lights dane
ing round to the swing tunes. /.
