FALSE ALARMS
LOVE LETTERS ATTRACT
Two things are now plain in Wellesley, Mass., the home of the famous girls' college. One is that a certain young lady knows that red boxes are not for the mailing of love letters, and the other that some members of the fire department have a decreased opinion of the value of a college education for the fair sex. The Student, said to hail from merry England, left the dormi_____ory to mail a letter— possibly to a Harvard man, as she showed a partiality for red. Before the charming miss had a chance to collect her thoughts and return to her rooms, she was surprised to see a circle of firemen attired in rubber coats and armed with fire extinguishers and axes. It was possible that the lady was most attractive, for the story goes that the firemen looked, sighed, shook their heads and returned to the waiting apparatus.
