Mr. Editor: News is very g0nic
scarce this week, but Bill Dolittle i (|Ujrc
savs ho has found plenty, and I I
expect iie has sent it post hasto to 1
The Enterprise. Now in my last I
roport. i was honrst in saying
Bill was dead. Ho has come to Uhilh
life all at once, since being report- |"ySrt.
cd dead. You know Bill has a perfnt
rival and is thinking of getting p.Hw
married soon and ho knew it
would not do for him to remain ,e^jf
silent, for fear his girl would think
that Optimus reported things correctly
anil the rival would got the I V
advantage as dead mon are to ho "~~
avoided. From Bill's news items I
ho is very much alive in watching
and reporting the happenings of
the time. Ar
In private conversations with
Bill I think ho would like to have j
a .Mrs Oolittle to help him in some

bear, and Mill will come from his sure i
hiding place and claim too much
of the honor.
The young people ot the Kp- \ \y(
worth League had a social gather- Jewel
iug a the residence of Mr and I
Mrs .1 M Yoder last Friday night. I A
Optimus would have been glad j
to have been present, but he is I
not classed as one of the young |
people, and had no special invitation
to be on hand, so it was
thought best not to let him know
much about this meeting for fear
he might write up some of the
dudes and dudines. My account
of this gathering will have to be
quite meager. From what I can
learn the Lenfim hnd n nlnnannt
?0.._ ...... .. I--"- j
and profitable meeting. The host
and more especially, the hostess,
did much to make the young people
enjoy thsmselvos. Optimusj
got a glance at some <?f the dudes, j
and was particularly struck at the Vtfgjn
artistic way in which they had JE y
their hair parted in the middle! fi
and curled over their temples in ft
ringlets, and the nicety of their J
cigarette putfs as they chatted to j ,
the dudines, who were all smiles I ij
in ribbons rutiles and frizzled hair. urf
Nature has done much for these
hut they are about to ruin the ^
handiwork of the Creator by arti-1
fieial means. |
