THE MODERN GIRL.

To the Editor of the “Timaru Herald.” Sir,—'That storm which I predicted has apparently passed ever, not much I damage having been done. But ‘‘Modern Girl” raised a lot of dust m throwing her missies from the shelter, of the Scriptures, and possibly I won'd have been badly injured had not “Experience” come quickly to my aid, with her well directed volley of straight talk to the “enemy.” “51. A. S. Black” speaks , also from experience, and is more with us than against. So J consider we have fairly won the “bout.” As for the poor "Merc Man” and his “Sops” to the “Girlies,” 1 confess T am too narrow-minded to under-, •stand him. But let me get back to “Modern Girl.” for I am,, quite interested in her. I think she Inust ho very j beautiful. 'You know sir, I am quite | a young chap yet. Could you not ar-\; range a meeting between she and 1? j Might I suggest as the rendezvous | some quiet nook on Caroline Bay. , “Modern Girl” believes in mixed hath- i ing, so that if the debate should be- , come heated we could , lake a “flip” j just to cool ourselves down again. f 1 just make one reservation sir, and that ; is‘ that “Modern Girl” comes dollied : In the sunshine she speaks so much I about. —I am, etc., j D.
