For some time now, yours truly
has been aware of a situation
which can be remedied. There are
many lovely young lasses in Our
Town and many. many times have
/ heard them say-there just isn't
any way to meet young men. Now,

just isn't any means Of being intro
duced to young ladies in this town.
So, may / venture to suggest q
return to the old-time tea dance
properly sponsored and chaperon-

vestigate the mechanics of such an
idea, but golly-the response to it
has been more than favorable and
l mean by other than the young
men and women concerned. More
