The other night we saw a girl lol- Ting unblushingly in a fellow's arms in the back seat o f an automobile as it rolled up First street. Lights brought this spooning couple into plain view of people on the side walks. Many were the gibes and Jeers hurled at the couple, who made a spectacle of themselves. A fellow who really cares for a girl would not submit her to such insults, unless he were a fool, and a girl who had any respect for herself would not permit herself to be held up to ridicule If she was endowed with ordinary good sense. On« cannot ride out in any direction after dark without encoun tering these spooning couples In au tos and one wonders what has become of the old-fashioned girl who held herself above the cheap hugging in public. They do not seem to care for the glare of the headlight that often reveals their identity to the passer-by, but snuggle all the closer as the spotlight points them, out. There is nothing more thrilling than to cuddle your girl to your side, but for heaven's sake, and her sake, don’t make her look cheap and com mon to every rowdy that passes you on the road. And take it from us, girls, the man who holds you up to ridicule and cheapens you in this way will never respect you; ______ _______ o---------- There is a certain type of a girl i Saturday night makes people hu- that we like,' and for that matter,' man and sets their hearts to beating everybody likes her.
