ODE TO THE SILKEN
CLAD GIRLS
Sweet girls, how I admire you with
silken hose,
Full-fashioned, stretched so neat
Above. youn ankles-sllm.) i
Your dancing feet! : 1
Dear ones, how light and airy are
your silken skirts
That scarce come all the way
Down to those sejf-same hose.
How light the lingerie! ;
That, dearies, next your youns and
lithesome forms, '
Your curves and gentle grace
Tends fully to disclose.
How sweet each face
That beams with light and Joy
above your silken scarfs!
Yonr eyes, how bright and clear,
That look on life so calm
And feel no fear!

It will please a lot of people to
know that Syd Chaplin has score 1
another hit. Movie fans nil over
the world have great affection for
tho comedian, for he 'wz done n
lot in affording them much honest
laughter.. It was thought that Hyd
would never get another role that
would afford him as pood oppor

"The drudgery
and loneliness of

farm life Is over-sold by pessimis

buses, radio, telephone, and the
labor saving devices lighten the
day's work and give entertainment
for leisure. . .
"From my experience ' with
working women a'nd girls in by

should bo done to discourage poor
country girls from-seeking fame
and fortune in the city. And con
versely, that city girls should
have the advantages of the coun

Mrs. C. W. Clark was chairman
of the affair and assisting hor were
Mrs. Warren Burt, Mrs. R. L.

From the road I turned my pony
And stopped at a well near-by.
A girl In her sombrero,

Was ..turning the creaking windleso
That over the deep well hung.
And It wound, and wound the long

Around and around the spool;
Till, dripping, arose the bucket
From the depths so dark and

With her strong young hands she
seized it;
On a bench she set It down;
Then from a nail in the well-curb
Took a . gourd-cup hard and

Filled with overflowing water
As cold as some snow-peak's Ice,

And the girl with kindness light

from the house-tops that for real
humor the comedian's new piece,
"The Fortune Hunter," has every

en to a pulp when it comes to
downright humor. It was to be ex
pected that Syd would score In
"The Fortune Hunter" for on the
legitimate stage the play was a
tremendous hit.
