EN ROUTE
After the purchase of a complete outfit, it will be necessary to
say goodbye to one's local friends. Partings are always somewhat
sad, but it will be found that much simple pleasure may be
derived from the last nights with the various boys to whom one is
engaged.
In this connection, however, it would be well to avoid making any
rash statements regarding undying friendship and affection,
because, when you next see Eddie or Walter, at Christmas time,
you will have been three months in the East, while they have been
at the State University, and really, after one starts dancing
with Yale men--well, it's a funny world.
In case you do not happen to meet any friends on the train, the
surest way to protect yourself from any unwelcome advances is to
buy a copy of the Atlantic Monthly and carry it, in plain view.
Next to a hare lip, this is the safest protection for a
travelling young girl that I know of; it has, however, the one
objection that all the old ladies on the train are likely to tell
you what they think of Katherine Fullerton Gerould, or their
rheumatism.
