M I R R R POSTAL-CARD RACI One day when I was in a store, I happened to see a postal-card rack containing cards on which were pictured many attractive-looking young girls. I took one out to look at and saw a girl, fairly tall, with light hair, superintending a Sunday School, yelling — Come on, you kids! I thought I ' d pick out some more to send to a few of my former classmates at North Shore. I picked out many others. On one was a short puella — The Charleston Railroad Jack — E. Klein. On the next was a very straight figure studying over the piano — Miss Sherman in her youth. My eye was then attracted by a very stunning girl reclining in a chaise-longue, with Kirks soap wrappers strewn all over the floor. On the following card was a short girl with dark bobbed hair, and a tall one singing a duet — None Shall Part Us, sung by the Misses Cushman and Pope on all of their programs. Turning the rack around, I saw a very beautiful girl toe-dancing — Miss McKeown in the Follies. A well-dressed miss was on the next card, and awaiting her was a snappy roadster with a Deer- field pennant flying from it — Miss McKay, the famous model. A familiar scene was on the following card — F. Alschuler, dashing forward on the All Chicago Hockey Team. Continuing my search, I took one out with a girl on it sitting in a chair with a plaid dress on — For soft comfortable clothing, use Miller ' s plaid materials. I chose another announcing the opening of the new offices of D. Ferry — Nose and Throat Specialist. On my twelfth and last was a fairly tall, slim person tearing along in a car with a bright ribbon tied around her head — Help keep your hair neat-looking by wearing a ' B. Warren ' head-band. BOOK REVIEWS Judging Janet — An extremely interesting book; full of laughs, and very peppy. Eleanor ' s Elegy — A story of a girl who sings her way through life. Jesting Jeanne — Very like the title; full of wise cracks, and very colloquial. Winsome Winnie — This displays the vivacity of a girl who has just returned from Europe. Beautiful Betty — This is the more romantic type of novel. The heroine is a most stunning girl, and popular with everyone. Fighting Frances — This shows the purely athletic side of a well-liked American girl. I am sure everyone will enjoy the story of this girl ' s experiences in hock- ey and basketball. Educating Emmy — It tells the school life both abroad and at home of an excep- tionally peppy girl. Educating Emmy is a best seller and there are very few who have not read it. Smiling Susan — Always laughing is this school girl. Anyone will get a smile out of this book. Kicking Klein — The history of a young girl who Charlestons in a French Caba- ret. Her experiences are most unusual. Eloquent Ellie — The adjective eloquent is used because the girl, Ellie, elo- quently describes how one ought to be nice to everyone. Directress Doris — This girl is the leader of her class, and it is very amusing to watch how she leads her wayward school friends along the straight and narrow path. Soliloquizing Shirley — In which she tells of the brain-racking trials she has in trying to accurately describe her fellow classmates. Twenty raam aK agai iii.wi niimiim ussa ama s .
