HOW TO MIX WITH THE BEST PEOPLE You, too, can move in the best circles! HIS is the story of Angela Apple and how she became the toast of the town (name on request) overnight. It seems a travelling sales- man came to their house one night—no that isn’t the story. We'll rub it out and start all over! Angela was worried no end. She suffered from chill-blains, stuttering, fallen arches, plain face and an Inferiority Complex—1927 sport tour'ng. None of the gay young bloods would come near her house in spite of the fact that her father was a famous bootlegger. That will give you a rough idea of how hot Angela was. She was so popular the boys called her “Poison Ivy.” She even tried luring them with the old man’s rare vintages of 1926, but after taking a swallow of one of her concoctions, the sheiks would grow green around the gills and go right through the parlor window. In this way, she collected quite a few overcoats and hats and even shoes, which she decided to sell. After arguing with the JUDGE, JR. 627 West 43rd Street, New York. DEAR JUNIOR: I want to be popular, too, and mix with the best people. Here's a dollar for my copy of “Here’s How!” big-hearted old clothes man one entire morning she took the dollar and went down- town, and as she passed a bookstore window she glanced in and what do you think she saw! You guessed it! A copy of “Here's How!” by Judge, Jr! Well, to get down to the coupon, she went right in and bought it and THAT NIGHT she ’phoned all the boys to come over because her father was giving away bot- tles of gin. And did the boys come? Well, you can bet your sweet life they did, Gentle Readers! Angela mixed them some snifters from “Here's How!’ and about five o'clock in the morning the old man called down a and wanted to know if the gang was ever going home! And every night now Angela’s house is crowded with young sheiks from all over the state and she’s the envy of every girl in town! comicbooks.com
