THE H A M OWN Hi ive 25221 i Yam' ibtiok Lf fiamiilioni High School You Senior Girls, who are about to go out into the world on your own,- REMEMBER- That love and poker are two games in which it pays to look innocent and -just a little stupid. Nowadays, a husband is like any other household pet. just as you have become attached to him, he either gets lost or stolen or run over, or you have to shoot him or something. That husbands are like Hperiodf' furniture. The modern ones are mostly too loud and jazzy to be charmingg and the old-fashioned ones are too upright and severe to be comfortable around the house. That the girl who sits at home and waits for Fate to send her an Ideal Husband will find the deliveries awfully slow, these busy days. That men are things women have to marry. A man is composed of his digestion, his conscience and his vanity. His digestion often goes dead , his conscience constantly has to be cranked up--but his vanity is always self- starting. That getting a husband, these days, is a feat which requires the tact ofa statesman, the technique of a prima donna, the genious of Einstein, and the self-control of President Coolidge. That if you Hatter a man, he is frightened to death, and thinks you have matrimonial designs, and if you don't, he is bored to death and thinks that you lack intelligence. That ifyou listen to their conversation, you've got to learn to like biography -and if you don't you may as well learn to like solitaire. That, above all-even while we are marking timeu, Time is going right on marking us. A AND THAT, ll good line if the rc'ientMf maxculine device for .YIlj'l'17g a whole lot-and promifing nothing.

Whiskey was also prescribed for his stomach's sake, a small glass to be taken after each meal. Four days later Sandy again called on the doctor, stating he was feeling no better. , Have you taken the medicine exactly as I instructed? the doctor in- quired. Well, doctorf, replied the patient, I may be a wee bit behind wi' the pills, but I'm six weeks ahead Wi' tha Whuskyf' WHEN FREAK MEETS FREAK The only time a horse gets scared nowadays is when he meets another horse.
