Want a 'Different' Valentine? Here Are Two Real Cuties
VALENTINES—Here are the remnants of John and Marcia. John, who chased Marcia, wanted her to be his valentine. Marcia, who ran, kept saying no. One Valentines day as John was chasing and Marcia was running they found themselves in a small country surrounded by nasty little men. Marcia was so frightened she said yes, she would be John's valentine. So the nastily little men, who didn't understand anything at all, had a big party and shrank both John and Marcia's heads. Hanny Valentines day to you!!!
It's Party Time And Formals Are Favorites
Bv IRENE COONFER
With the rush of finals and enrollment over, formal parties are once again appearing on the scene. With the resumption of the social affairs comes, therefore, the return of interest in the fashion world of formal dresses.
This season, he has brought forth the "A-line," which seemingly has not impressed his ardent women followers as much as has his previous innovations. The large bouffant skirts, no longer a novel idea on the dance floor regardless of the name given them.
In addition to the change in academic schedules, one of the chief promoters of the interest in formalis is Christian Dior, who is always watched closely for the latest word in style. The massively-skirted ball gowns with their abundance of tulle, rhinestones, feathers, and lace are generally regarded as his trademark.
On the campus, formals are still being chosen for their appeal and not so much for the lines that fashion designers decree are in vogue. Because they are chosen to suit the individual's taste, the style and color of the present party, the Hill are of every type and description.
One of the most appropriate seen for the Valentine season was of pink nylon net with an over-skirt of brilliant red lace, topped with a red velveten jacket for dining.
Of course, the white formal is a perennial favorite, being suitable for all seasons. One such gown was varied by a large bustle in the back, which could easily become one of the popular styles. The new line was recently modeled by Mrs William Randolph Hearst Jr., and Gypsy Rose Lee at the March of Dimes fashion show in New York.

Gulliver Writes On Long Hose
By L. GULLIVER
Notes in the Diary: Lemuel Gulliver Boundless Kansas: February
Am observing the cast system here in boundless Amerika. First I have much observed the female compounds of the natives, which they wantonly call 'Sororities' with magical names and ancient letterings, and am much attracted by the donning of the females of long, woolen hose in the cold weathers. This they do by some inter-compound sign language, unbeknown to the males of the tribe.
Hey Sarge, Here It Is- Your Canine Valentine!
up. She's a real lady, and she doesn't go for the rugged type, as our photographer found out. She likes the sophisticated man. Better have someone blow pipe smoke on you to give you that "aura" and oh yes, don't forget to have the latest New Yorker tie around your neck.
So--before she wins world-wide fame, you'd better go call on her. But before you start out, be sure and have the brains, sorrow you
Our photographer, always on the prowl for a photographic female, ran across her one day and couldn't resist her—he's even thinking of putting her on a nice attractive calendar.
Chances are you two will make a fine couple—and we'll be waiting to see you two together. She'd make a fine companion for an evening's rest in the library.
Missed her? Haven't seen her in your travels—well, it's not too late. After all, today is St. Valentine's day, and she lives right here in Lawrence. Her name is Chi Bi, and her domicile is at 1400 Ohio, and she is enacting the genteel role of companion to Mrs. Earl Westgate.
Well--off you go. Today is Valentine's day, and love is in the air. Good luck Sarge, good luck. Hearts and flowers, birds and bees—and Chi Bi waiting for you just down the street. Go on Sarge, go see the girl- and a happy Valentine's day to you!
Hey Sarge—check the cuties.
Pretty appealing, so far as the dog world goes, hey what? She's got that certain something, don't you think? You know, that svelt quality that makes her a standout in canine society.
Her manners are really something—at the age of three months she was already a perfect lady, And while she looks a little worldly, and while she has been around, no doubt about it, she's got those appealing domestic urges that always delight the heart of the male.
