Il wish to correct a statement that
was printed in this paper last
week. The Green eyed monst-
er" has not arrived early in the
R. T. and D. H. love affair. Roz-
ella does not and never has timed
David Hughes speeches with 9TH
er chics. I just wanted to set you
folks right or the misrepresent-
alton of Rozella Thomas. Rozella
is not a jealous person of David
or anyone else.

Congratulations:
To Miss Charlotte Ellis and to

THANK YOU:
This is to other columnists. I
read in your column last week a
short paragraph that was for me
personally. You told the Cyclops
not to make too many comments
on what you write. You said I
might get stuck. My dears I get
the point, and thank you for your
untimely advice.

SIambooks:
Slambooks are nice to read and
write in, but we should refrain
from writing such mean things. I
read a few very bad things writ

read in one where they called a

this Chick is frone, but if you
can't write good things or suggest
helpful improvements then don't
write anything.

That the attack on the destroyer
