But when} ome of the big hotels gives the use of its apartments to a “bestial pro-| ceeding,” when a clergyman calls flagrant indecency “a love match,” tt] fs indeed time that the decent members of the community, clergymen, hotel-keepers and other citizens alike, should protest. This is not a crusade against immorality, but against the making of immorality respectable.

She will have to present a union card to gain eritrance te his heart; but {t will be “worth the price of admission.” As for places in which to entertain beaux, the “up-and-coming” working- sir] devises various plans. The social club Is a never-falling avenue to beau- land. The right sort of clubgiris soon attract and share with each other the right kind of beaux, and by means of occasional entertainments or dances they raise funds for attractive meeting-rooms, Necessity suggests many inven- tions to the person who owns a thinking cap. There is no reason for hanging around stregt corners, waiting for one’s fate. I once knew a group of hall-bedroom girls who got together, rented a flat and made a charming home. Among the articles of furniture they collected were a plano and a chafing-dieh. Though the fiat was on the top floor of a tall apartment bullding, the beaux described {t as “within easy walking distance of the street.’ In the summer they were willing to mount to an tmprovised roof- garden on the top of the bullding, where they said there were ‘no files.” The details of two weddings were arranged on that roof, In these days there is no excuse for brides who must apologize for the bridegroom.
