I was born in a hospital ward, reared in a boarding school, educated in a college, courted in an automobile, and married in a church. I get my me&ls at a cafeteria, Jive in an apartment, spend my mornings playing golf, my afternoons playfeig bridge, in the evening we dance or-go to the movies, when I'm sick I go to the hospital, and when I die I shall be buried by an undertaker.

' Here we go again! ; The Meister Brau Girls trimmed the "Fitz" team of the K. of (*. bowling league two weeks ago in one of the noisiest matches of this or any .Other season. There has .'been '"-a^ re-»match -'.arranged between the two : teams for next Sunday evening,'.Marcki."I<k:'i»t the Schaefer bowling alley. Since the first match drew so much attention from enthusiastic rOqter^, it was decided to roll this one for the benefit of the U. S. 0. The girls are selling tickets right and left these days, indicating that a tidy sum may^ be gathered in for the boys in service. Indications that a large crowd will be on hand for the fun. leads those in charge to believe that it will he necessary to place chairs on the outer alleys to give everybody a chanc to get in on the raszberry part of the match.
