have noticed very few gentlemen
who still bother to tip their hats at
a lady. In grandmother’s day
even the lowest form of lowlife
villain tipped his battered head
gear at a lady even if only to cool
off his bald head! But it is rarely
done so nowaday and should a
young gentleman of today ressort
to the tactics of his noble an
cestors the modern young thing
would be so startled at such pro
cedure on his part she would
swear that the poor fellow whose
intentions were highly honorable,
was flirting with her! . . . And
then again maybe there IS an ex
cuse. If you own a fedora like
afraid to tip it for fear it will fall:
apart!

BY MARY LANE
i Hello folks. Now that school
has started again and many of our
young folks will be leaving for
college the ole town is going to
seem pretty lonesome and I don't
know what we are going to use
for news, what with the jittery
juniors and sophisticated seniors
staying home nights slaving over
chemistry and geometry and lay
ing off the cute pranks that get
them in the paper, so maybe we
will have to pick on the old folks
for a while. Nevertheless, we’re
glad to see some of the old teach
ers back and are happy to wel
come the new ones- We feel sure
the new teachers, new books, new
repairs, new schedules and equip
ment are going to make this one
of the best school years ever .
. .
Speaking of school reminds us ol
our French lessons. It almost
seems like we’ve started to school
again ourselves trying to decipher
the difference between “je re
garde” and “vous regardez,” etc.
Crowell says: “Flash, I always
thought you were a right bright
girl and all, but if you’re taking
French lessons, I’m beginning to
! wonder!” P. S.—It seems Billy
Carl has “dabbled” in the lan
guage himself—once upon a time.
PIXILATED PRATTLE . . . There
is another boy in the drug store
and he has a Gable mustache .
Bo Burch says he has been doing
quite a bit of writing himself this
summer, but now that he’s going
back to Macon, maybe he’ll get
to see her instead! . . . Get the
; Beam-pole to tell you about his
i new girl from Thomaston and ask
j him what he uses for “calling
| cards” . . . We’re wondering if
I Dime week at the show is going
to last forever? It started in July
and now its Se 'mber! . . . They
are telling it around that Tin Pan
Allen is in a class by himself when
