Girls Balk on Making Hash
Atlantic City Domestic Science Class Fear Edict of Young Men—May Scare Suitors
Atlantic City, N. J.—The girl members of the domestic science class of the Atlantic City high school are pouting over the announcement that they will be forced, among other things, to learn how to make hash.
The girls fear that public announcement of their proficiency in hash-making may scare off possible suitors among young men who are forced to indulge in the boarding house staple too often during their bachelorhood.
The scare started when the best young man of one of the girls informed her that he and his fellow-boarders had formed an anti-hash society with the following motto:
Remember this motto when spending your cash—
To one day of turkey there's six days of hash.
Instructors of the new class declare they will compel the young women to learn the mysteries of hash despite the protest.
