Inquisitive Sal

Hello, Folks:
Instead of the month of rOmances
and roses for Miss J. B. of Mpls.,
it is the month for tOtalling her
profits and losses. Every day she
has been seen pacing slowly up and
down her front lawn, looking over
and scanning the border. Everyone
thought that she was watching for
those sweet petunias, which were
planted a month ago but don't seem
to want to come up. But no, it's
her ring, her diamond ring that she
lost one night while bidding adieu
to her handsome LOchinvar. Now
she has lost her lover, her ring and
it looks as if the sweet petunias
are also lost. Give her an encOur-
aging smile as you pass by, folks.
She needs it'll!
Did You Know:
BILL CARROLL is dashing
round town in a sharp 1871 Dodge.
o. JIMMY CARTER is counting
EVELYN PETTIFORD these days.
-. Plans are under way now for a
bigger and better Twin City Golf
Club. IT'S said a number of hand
some SWANS are going in for tennis
in earnest this year, so girls, if
you want to keep in the swim, you'd
better start getting up at a. m.
to practice.
My Boy Thursday says there
were quite few couples out to the
carnival on st. Anthony Ave. in st.
Paul the other mite. A number of
st. Paul's wOuld-be society leaders
were actually seen riding the
merry-gO-rOund. NJ. of st. Paul
was lOokin' all around for her hubby
who had suddenly disappeared and
found him a-hugging and a-Essing
another st. Paul matron on the
ferris wheel. When hubby spotted
wife acOmin' he made a deal with
the runner of the wheel to keep it
going cOnsecutively four times
without stopping, but wife boxed
hubby's ears good and proper when
he did get off. B. is bound for
Omaha again mighty soon. Gosh!
1t must be real love. What st.
Paul matrOn fell overheard for a
couple of those handsome track
stars who were in town last week?
.. JUANITA WALLACE is leav-
ing this week for West Virginia
where she'll visit and look over
some of her friends and acquaint-
ances made at West Virginia Col
lege during 1910. (Heard there was
one particular boy friend, too.). {.
HENRY THOMAS is almOst
speeches. these days. You know
he's already purchased his railroad
ticket to go to the Conference of
Social Work in Atlantic City, N. J.
Hank is stopping in N. Y. and says
he's going to give Harlem the once
over. What a treat Harlem has in
store for itself!
Big Event of June:
It's the wedding of FLORENCE
WARD of St. Paul and CARROLL
DAY of Chicago. The invites to
the wedding reception are very
beautiful and my bet is that the
bride-to-be will be something to
really stare at, for she always has
a model-like appearance and at her
wedding she'll probably be tops.
Sad But True:
She's a st. Paul gal who makes
no bones about hiding her con-
tinned affection for a certain Mpls.
boy about town. For many years
Cher intimate girl friend just re.
vealed) our heroine has been keep.
ing a hope chest with the most
beautiful things imaginable in it
hoping that this certain boy about
town would eventually ask heI
hand in marriage. The boy has
actually escorted our heroine 'rOunC
town a number of times but as fal
as really being serious with her
well, it seems as if everyone knew
that to be an impOssibility except
our heroine.
