New Years Novelette,:
Our heroine in this weeks novel
cite is a st. Paul lassie, who has
been going with NJ. of Mpls. for
about six months. Our lassie is
madly in love with NJ. and she
thinks NJ. is madly in love with her,
but he is too bashful to admit it.
(Whatta hero.) To come to the
point, our heroine has hit upon a
plan and decided to get her kid
brother to bring out her diary and
sneak it to NJ. to read, and to have
the kid brother pretend that If his
sister knew about it she would be
horror stricken. (The diary, you
know, is full of love for M. and
how much she wishes he would pro-
pose, ETC., etc., and what she'd say
if he did, Well, anyway, the diary
trick was played upon poor unsus-
pecting NJ. who fell like a ton of
bricks, saying if he'd known that
our lassie cared for him he would
have proposed long ago. Here's
the laugh on our heroine. You know
NJ. had a fine job but lost it few
days ago and our St. Paul lassie is
marrying him, thinking he's still
got his job. To top it off, she has
resigned her position. So-it seems
as if here's little work for LEO
BOHANON Of the Mpls. Relief De-
partment.
