Hello, Folks:

Hello, Folks:
Skating seems to hold the lime
light these days-believe it or not,
roller skating and ice skating have
both been INDUCED in by a number
of the younger set round town.
Kinda swell, isn't it, going in for
a summer sport (rOller skating)
one night and Drawing the wintry
blasts another night to trip the
light fantastic on the ice pond.
SAILS still sticking to ice skating
and honest I'VE Three" (my shad
ow, my echo and mel are actually
learning to do some fancy skating.
Bouquets to WENDELL
JONES on roller skating. mean
he can really twirl some on the
roller Kinks. You know MAE
HATCHER has beautiful pair of
white hockey skates, but friends
tell this on Mae, that she busily
polishes the runners on them every
week or so but hasn't used them on
the ice this year. Come on, Mae,
get busy.) SIR NORMAN
Light has a bevy of charming
girls tagging after him on the ice
pond, hoping to be noticed.
AS for tObOggan parties - there
haven't been SO very many of them,
guess most folks are too tired after
a hard days work of school to go
in for tObogganing, which is, when
you think about it, quite strenuous.
One of our students (who won't
let me use his name) has just
returned from his Christmas hoi-
days III the South and relates the
following: He says he was invited
to dine with an old lady "a friend
of his mother's), on a large estate.
For dessert, she served an enor-
nous pie, the largest he had ever
seen, so trying to be polite he said,
La, Ma'am, how do you ever man
age to handle such a big pie"
Easy enough" was the sarcastic
reply, I'VE make up the crust in a
wheelbarrow, wheel it under an
apple tree, and then shake the fruit
down into it." Ho! Hum!
Stranger Than Fiction: They
are a group of three men 1.-TWO st.
Paulites and one Minneapolitan) =,
who have at some time or other
been in love with Mrs. B. of Mime
apolis. They all know each others
feelings for Mrs. ''B." and how
each one was led on into falling in
love 90 with her while hubby was
safely running on the road. But,
now, the three have formed club
that meets once every two weeks.
At this meeting they spend one
hour panning Mrs. B., especially,
and then women in general. The
other hour is spent in imbibing
beverages. To come to the point,
Mr.. 3D." the hubby, discovered
Mrs. BIS present and past actions
and also knows about the Three
Club and being a sorta jellyfsh
fellow he has told wife nothing of
his discovery. The latest is that
hubby has asked to become a men,
Der of the club and was accepted,
and, believe it or not, THE Four
now spend hours panning Mrs. B.
And-you remember the old song
More Work for the Undertaken" ?
Well, soon someone will be singing
