I wonder what H, J. and P.
R, can: find to interest them on
~Maines Street. Could M. N. anc
S. B. be the reason? I wonder,

Just what is. T R. and. F...R,
pulling off? Do you or don't
you intend to go together ~

Who is A. B, really for? Is it
S. H_ of the services or is it
F. M.

I keard that F, a E, B. Ww.
are going around again but not
together.

Where does I M keep herself

lately? -
G I is always making the
remark: ~What mothers daugh

The fine three mesquiteers,

er was Rev. S. D, Ross, pastor

~And Enoch walked with God.~

-The sermon was very inspiring.

An ~Ever.ing in Paris~ dinner

was given with great success at

Arnong those present were Rev.

none other than K F, T R,.and
H B. have. sort of dropped out
of circulation now that R~s
are home for summer.

Now that the T~s have put
S W and R W down, I guess
they~ve decided to become playboys,

~Say F. V, what do you think
your intended would say if she
knew you took M H home from
the Royal Gardens Saturday. To
both of you, you~re being rather Catty.

I wonder what S J would say
if she knew that;P ~J was embraced with C J ~in the Michi
know its a bad policy ~to try to
go with two friends,

gan yesterday. To P J don~t you

Its rumored that A. B. and F.

really? Os ot E J, A. L. My or
S S? You.ought to make up
your mind, you're getting messy.

I: seems that.D, W. just
wouldn~t let G, W. out of her
sight at the FICC Saturday. She
is saying to you gals, ~Hands off,
he~s mine.~

To V B and LW why don't
you two. fellas straighten. up
and fly right. After all you
know that it is impossible for
you two, so play it straight.

What has happened to the romance of H. J. and M, N.? Can
J~L S be the cause of it all.
I wonder.

S S should be tired of running L_M down.

The college crowd: are home
and are really showing these
Flint girls how they stood. Now
dén~t. let. these boys fool you
when ~they go back to school.

-K D seems to be squiring D
V. around lately and they really make a swell couple, but
please put out that torch for
