“Where have you been, my

“To college, sir,” she curtly

“What did you do at college,
“Oh, I learned to neck and tip

To dance and jazz; to wear
short skirts;
To gold-dig boys and how to
flirt;
To s«vear, to date, to stay out
late;
To be a sport, a regular skate.”

Here and there in the group one or
two girls smile a knowing smile and
lean forward.
“Here comes the team! The boys

Now we’re starting. The whistle is

THE HURRY OF THIS TIME
With slower pen men used to write.

Or trim a straggling theme aright.
They knew not steam; electric light

MAN AND HIS SHOES
How much a man is like his shoes
For instance, both a soul may lose
Both have been tanned; both a
made tight
By cobblers; both get left and right.
Both need a mate to be complete.
And both are made to go on feet.
They both need healing; oft are sold.
And both in time will turn to mold
With shoes the last is first; with
When men wear out they’re men-
Tluy both are tread upon, and both
Will tread on others, nothing loath.
Both liave their ties and both incline.
When polished, in the world to shine;
And both peg out; now would you
choose
To be a man or be liis shoes?

“Electricity—The
Servant in the Home”
It does the cooking, refrigerating, sweep
ing, washing, ironing and other tasks—and
does them all more efficiently and with the
expenditure of less effort on the part of
the housewife than you can imagine. If
your home is not thoroughly electrified you
are missing much that makes life worth
while.
