An Alliance Romeo was writing a
missive to his girl. Something had
occurred to interrupt the course of
true love. Romeo was gnawing the
end of the pencil, and would make a
start on a new piece of paper every
twenty seconds. Finally he wrote
feverishly. .On the floor, after the
storm had cleared away, was found
a fragment that read like this: "The
Ship of Love is slowly sinking and
on the horizon looms the Ship of
Friendship."
Let us hope that the Ship of Iove
gets through sinking before the Ship
of Friendship arrives otherwise
these might be a collision.
If they should collide, would it be
a case for a wrecking crew or a
stomach pump? , ' .
, Today's Best Story,
A man and woman were walking
on the Coney Island boardwalk In
animated conversation. But this
conversation grew more and more
animated. It rose to shouts on the
man's part and shrieks on the
woman's. .Then the man up with his
fist and knocked the woman down.
She took the blow calmly enough,
but as she rose she was heard id say
in rather bitter accents:
- "Ah, Joe, ft I'd knowed this was

Little Lesson in Etiquette: An
unmarried gentleman who is anxious
to obtain the privilege of calling ou
a young lady may ask some mutual
friend to effect the opportunity.
When the .desired advantage has
been secured, however, he must not
make his first call alone, but must
be 'accompanied by the man or wom
an who obtained him the favor.
Thereafter, with the lady's permis
sion, he may call alone.
All the above dope is regular high
society stuff. If, however, you can
date her up for the movies, there Is
no real reason why he should have
to buy a meal or a seat for the inti
mate friend.
In ca'ling a gentleman friend, be
reasonably certain that you have the
best hand. . . - -

Fair Figures from a Fair Guy: In
the issue when we were credited
with having 1? headed articles
(which is a great way of comparing,
incidentally) we actually Luu -
and there were a number of w'r
articles which we did not consider
worth heads, although our friend
down the street "played 'em up.
In other words, discount this
"fair" guy's knocks on The Herald
60 per cent and discount his claims
at least 25 per cenj..
The gent who manufactures fig
ures to suit his case can make a
pretty good showing, whether he Is

the press counter showed to be a
