4 S0C. ED., A HOTOR ¢ RIDE AND A STORY | Being the Harrowing Facts In ¢ Connection With a Woman Journalist’s Experience. AND ALSO AN AFTERMATH By MELLIFICIA—]uly 18. Bl There was a society editor who dwelt in a town hard by the Missouri i river, laboring on a great home and | fireside companion, otherwise a ] “metropolitan disseminator of the \ day’s muck.” Take your choice. Once in the course of the day's 1 labor, she confided to the thousands K of readers of the columns, how some 5 charming matrons of society had gone on a lark, substituting summer widow- s and bachelors as companion-play- fellows, instead of their husbands. It so chanced the very same even- #tg that two summer widowers and two gay Lotharios called on the said ¥ s. e, and invited her to go automo- biling which ,as the evening was very warm, she consented to do. “Ho, ho, ho!” laughed they, and the ringleader of the widowers qugth: “We have a great scheme. The bes way to suppress publication of one’s larks is to take the scribe with you. Being ‘particeps criminis,’ the incident is closed.” : Which is why this story was writ- ten. Summer widowers needn’t de- velop such a strong sense of security. At the Field Club, Mr, and Mrs. Edward H.
