Shortridge Girls Hunt in Vain for Gentlemen

Why, boys, can this be true! A group of Shortridge High School girls, highly indignant, writes me its tale of woe. It seems the girls have been trying to find some gentlemen &Ynong the much famed younger generation.

They are of the school that thinks there is basis for many of the numerous complaints against this, generation, It seems, and they feel that it is the boys on whom responsibility for most of the complaints rests. They stood It calmly, evidently, until one morning this week. Then three of them, on their way to school, boarded a crowded street car. On the car was a group of Shortridge boys. These boys, the girls relate, kept their seats and let the girls stand. It was too much for the girls, as their letter shows. Such Indignation Pear Mlsa Lee: We are a group of six Short ridge High School girls and we want you to print our protest. We are tired of being blamed for “petting" parties and everything else that comes along. We think If anybody is to blame it's the boys, and wo are not going to stand for this criticism of us any longer. / The other morning three of us came to school on a Central Ave. street car. It was crowded and we had to stand. Pour Shortrldge boys were sitting in the car, and they did not get up and give us seats. We wonder whether there are any gentlemen lelt in high school, and we don’t think there are. after that. We hope those boys see this protest. SIIORTRIDGE GIRLS. Well, girls, you seem to be much excited. Perhaps t,he boys would like to make their explanations. If they do, we’ll give them a hearing before passing judgment. Are there any gentlemen left? Oh, I Imagine so. What about It, boys? Husbands Invited Dear Miss Lee: lam going to entertain my club, which has twenty members. We are going to have our husbands for a dinner party. My house Is not very small. Have you any suggestions as to how I Serve a buffet supper. This will be much less trouble than a formal dinner, and will eliminate the crowding you fear. ‘First Come — 1 Pear Miss Lee: I am a girl 18 years old. I have been Invited tea dance. After I accepted the invitation I wag invited to another party by a fellow I like much better than the first. These fellows never see each other, so would it be so terrible if I broke the first date and wont to the It certainly' would.
