GIRLS SHOULD ¥y IN THEIR TWENES Wanderer Hears of Tntdting Theory—Curious (Que | (By The Wanderer). | Wandering at random, hergere | and everywhere throughout tcity streets one sees many little in| nts, trivial in themselves, yet in gregate go towards making |the little sidelights which help illjate the paths of life. Some of jem are humorous, and others are| so funny. | Baggage ad Preacher. A man visiting here left iral weeks ago for a trip to Sout{m- erica. He sent for an exprqan and sald: “Send my baggage express office and have thenhip it.” With sublime faith in ejss- men, founded more on his contce in human nature than his experes, He started south. But the bage did not follow. . | He sent a telegram to his tha, Rev. Michael Maietta to searcHor the missing wardrobe. The fer went to the former boarding % learned the name of the expresyn, traced him in true detective yle and found that the baggage accdng to the expressman, had been takto the “freight” station. But ther(as no baggage at the freight stin, 80 the search began again. Sherlock Holmes instinct the ister eventually learned that thE- pressman had taken the trunkto the baggage room in the passier station and there they were f4d. ‘The baggage now is on its wa*o the owner in South America. | “Ain’t We Got Pan?” | They appeared to be about jx years of age. They were talkingly earnestly about something. .l}p frowns on their faces betokened ous consideration. Going closer e Wanderer heard as he passed §: “You get your coaster and I'll mine and Willie will take his 1 and we'll have some fun,” Backwi, oh, backward, etc. | How’d You Like to Be the Co) His name is Bamforth and he a gold badge, a pleasant smile am, police lieutenant's uniform and - thority. He presides over the pa department at night. - He was m to drive his car up to a curb at ma one day, and although it is suppad to be a five passenger car, take abol six young women of unusual { striking personal charm. As he dry off a bystander remarked: “Some § lows have all the luck.” Intetest in Current Topics. Strolling through the byways a highways The Wanderer blew i the Boys' club.

They were large, bard and red, § and after a while began to fester. They itched so that I had to scratch them which made the burning more Y intense. “I used various salves ind creams but they gave no relief.

Nothing Excitable Here. The average woman is said to be Not -so with a woman on Main street. She had on a wide hat, mere man would say “of the cartwheel type.” There was a stiff breeze blowing. It got under the hat and said hat sailed nicely along on top of the It struck the street on edge and rolled like a hoop. The owner? She walked along all unconcerned and paid no attention whatever to the elusive headgear. Finally the hal fell over on the flat side and stopped rolling. The woman strolled leisure- ly i.to the street and picked it up in her own good time, placed it back on her head after brushing it off, and proceeded unconcerned on her journey. A Tumbling Block. A street corner social meeting was in session /outside the Y. M. C. A. Several young men were engaged in 2 discussion of affairs of mutual in- terest. They worried about nothing, the world was theirs, others could as- sunde responsibilities® But a window washer overhead, accidentally changed the atmosphere. He inadvertently let drop a small piece of “two by four.” It struck directly in the cen- ter of the bunch, but the crowd had scattered. The meeting is postponed indefinitely. The Last Chance. A wit once said that if there were only three women in the world and two of them got together they would talk about the third. Another wit subsequently denied this and said they would talk about a man. The Wan- derer makes no comment. The con- versation took place in the Young Women’'s Christian association cafe- teria. Truly a more fitting place could not be found. Six young wom- en, none of them of the school girl age anymore, but far, far, frgm be- ing eligible candidates for the shelf, were discussing matrimonial prob- lems. Little snatches of the conver- sation trickled through the keyhole or up the chimney, or possibly the custard pie talked. Anyhow, The Wan- derer heard this rather philosophical statement, “If yow're 25, you're slip- ping; after g0 you're gone.” How He Fools the Jitneys, Provoked because the Arch street jitney line* does not seem to make any effort to put in another bus to retain its schedule when a bus breaks down, a man living near the end of Arch street has devised a scheme for saving time and fooling the jitneys. He stood on Arch street for 15 min- utes last Sunday morning waiting for | a bus, only to learn, after he was too late for,church that they were runniag a 20 minute schedule. The next morning he walked to work with- |[out seeing a bus, and learned aggin that a breakdown of one car had cut out the intermediate run. The next day he selected the street which divides the route he travels directly in halves. When he gets to Arch street if there is no bus in sight he does not stop ' but starts ahead at a brisk pace. If the jitney overtakes him before the dividing line, he boards it. If he strikes the halfway point before the jitneys, he figures he can walk the rest of the distance in the same time he could ride and he continues walking.. So far the score stands about 7 to 3 in his favor. *" Now He’s a Methodist. A newcomer in the city attended a recent “feed” at the Methodist church. He had had perverted ideas ot church suppers from tales of rub- |ber oysters, etc., and went there pre- ipared for the worst. Since coming laway he swears by the Methodist lchurch. He believes they preach the iright kind of religion. Their theory Ke says is the same‘as the Irish \woman’s reply when asked how she managed to control her husband. “Sure”” she said. “Of jist fayde the baste” And that's what they did to NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1921. him! Knowing he liked pie they not oniy brought him the second piece of old-fashioned New England pumpkin, but actually coaxed him to take the third. “Pumpkin pies alone,” he says, “will take the Methodists to heaven.” Another Sherlock. “I know you're right-handed,” said a tailor to a customer the other day. “How can you tell?” was the reply. “Your right shoulder is lower than the left.” “Is that a sign?” “It sure is. Most men are lower in their right shoulders, but a left-handed man is always lower in his left shoul- der.” Don’t Mix Drinks. “I don't care about &offee at night,” he said to his neighbor at the ban- quet of mechanical engineers last Monday evening, “it always keeps me awake.” “Drink it without milk or cream and it won’t bother you,” was the advice. The theory was referred to a man who studied medicine for three years and whose vocation takes him to many banquets, ‘Yes,” he said, “I find there js something about the combination of milk or cream and coffee at night that works on the stomach and through it the nerves. I use only sugar in my coffee at night.” W e Truck Hits Bridge; Two Men Segiously Injureé Stamford, Oct. 29.—A truck laden with grapes crashed into the stone abutment of the Noroton river bridge on the Darien side late last night and today Joseph Iammo, of Brooklyn, and Henry Reo of 226 South street, Water- bury, are in the hospital and may die.
