PAGE SIX ‘HIGH” LIFE, MARCH 11, 1921. WOMEN SHOPPERS One morning Mr. Blue said to Mrs. Blue, ‘ ‘ My dear, if what I ’ve heard said is true That women are better shoppers than men Go buy me some collars, and ITl call you my friend.” So Mrs. Blue called up her friend Mrs. Black. And said, “Let’s go shopping. We are sure to be back Before noon, so your dinner you can pre pare Please come. It’s a grand, way to take the air.” The ladies set out with hearts so light • To a dry goods, store, but they had to fight Their \'ay to the counter where collars were sold — Their hats were knocked off in the fray I am told. Then Mrs. Blue .said to her friend Mrs. Black, “I have never liked that store anyway. Lets go back Up the street several blocks to “Bfirds and Bird.” They have wonderful bargains in collars I’ve heard.” At “Efird and Bird” they cost a little bit more Than they did at Mrs. Black’s favorite store. So again they walked up the street for a mile It was growing later all the while. At that shop they did not have Mrs. Blue’s size. Mrs. Blue then said, “Now my dear if we are wise We’ll have luncheon up town at a tea room I know.” For they were now very tired and their st'">s ,iuite slow. They called up their husbands and told them to stay Down town for their lunch just for that day. Then to the tea room the ladies steps turned Well pleased with the lunch they thought they had earned. After lunch they went into a tsore or two But the collar they showed were not “snappy and new'” Then being disgusted they went home to bed. And Mr. Blue to Mr. Black said. “If ever a hat or collar you need To n)y sad experience kindly take heed Dont send your wife down to do shopping for you She’ll never do what you want her to do.” —Prances Harrison. Girls and boys, what is the matter—The bullethi boards are getting covered again with rules and “donts.” For awhile we had these things stopped. Why not again. Is it YOUR fault? TWO GOOD GAMES GIRL’S TEAM CAPTURES (Continued Prom page 1.) saw tliat they had a fight on their hands, so they waged ahead and not once after tliat did Cliarlotte even catch up. The work of Johnson w'as the main feature of the game for Greensboro while Whitlock did good work for tiie Charlotte girls. The Charlotte folks had planned a re ception for us but as we had' another game ,to play the next night we thought it best not to attend. The next day was Saturday. The Char lotte girls took us to ride again and show ed us the Charlotte school. At twelve o'clock we all met at Tryon’s Drug Store and then we had lunch at a cafeteria. It 'W'as one hour until train time when we finished eating so we went to the lobby of the Mocklenberg Hotel and read some books. About 2 o’clock we boarded the train for Davidson. The one lone coach was very crowded so we went to the ob servation Car. We li'ad about an hour to i-ide so we did not mind standing up at all. When the train reached the great city of Davidson, we saw above all the rest* of the crowd that had assembled to meet us the head of Mr. York. Several other Greensboro boys w'ere there also to greet us. The girls took us to their home’s but it was then only about 3 ;15 so some of us W'alked around and viewed the college and everything that was of interest. The game W'as called at 7 o’clock so we W'ere told to get to the court about 6:30. Almost all of the Davidson boys as well as the town people were there. Some good strong yellng w'as done by these boys for both teams. At first the score seemed as if it would never be run up, owing to the inability of the Greensboro girls to get over the large floor. However, in the second half with Johnson and Pluharty at forward the score jumped from 13-3 to 38-3. Some splendid pass work was done and the girls seemed more able to cover the floor. We left Davidson about 12:25 Sunday afternoon. After changing trains at Barber Junction we took a pullman for Greensboro. This train also had an ob servation which was enjoyed by many of the girls. We arrived in Greensbro at 4:15 af ter a most delightful trip..
