We have no shrinking girls any
more. But their clothes certainly
have been doing a lot of it.
An epidemic called the “devil’s
grippe” has spread from West Vir
ginia to New York. What we can’t
understand is how it missed Chicago.
It will soon be time to take down
the screens and let the flies out of

Our definition of home is a house in
which you are at liberty to scratch

Living beyond our means wouldn’t
be so bad if there didn’t have to be
a day of reckoning.
The man who complains that his

she took him for better or worse.
It probably wouldn’t be so hard to

Baseball magnates have ruled that

Some women can forgive their

enough enough to run a millionaire

riously as in former years?

THE FORD PUZZLE
Chauncey Depew is wise in the ways
of politics, but he says he can’t un
derstand the Ford boom. “Take
Rockefeller,” he says, “and he has
spent $500,000,000 for humanity, yet
he couldn’t be elected to office. But
Ford, the richest man in the world,
and who has never spent his money
very freely on charities, is favored by
many for the highest office in the
world.” And when you come to think
of it, it is strange. How many of us
can remember the time when a rich
man didn’t have the ghost of a chance
of becoming president? In fact, no
political party ever was foolish
