Where He Got His Title
, When he got home for Christmas he boasted that he had been an All-American end. They investigated and ,found out he was right-that is-all the Americans he played against, ran around his end.
A Little More
A little more smile, a little less frown, A little less kicking a guy when he's down; A little more "WE," a little less "I," A little more laugh and a little less cry, A little more fowers on the pathway of life, And fewer on graves at the end of the strife.
Difference Between Banana And Sausage
' "The bananas are great remarkable fruit," writes a Japanese boy in the course of an essay on the banana. "He are constructed in the same architectural style as sausage, difference being skin of sausage are habitually consumed, while it is not advisable to eat wrapping of banana.

Sausage depend for creation on human being or stuffing machine, while banana are Pristine Product of honorable mother nature. In case of sausage both conclusion are attached to other sausage; banana on other hand are attached on one end to stem and opposite termination entirely loose. Finally, banana are strictly of vegetable kingdom, while affiliation of sausage often undecided."

Woman: "No, sir, I didn't."
Cop: "Well, I guess I'll go on home. I don't seem to be getting anywhere on this job."
Guess Again

"I'll have some of that."
"Sorryr" said the waiter, "f can't serve you that."
"Why not?"
"Well, sir, the fact is, the band is playing that."
Progress
The progress of the world depends upon the men who walk in the fresh furrows and through the rustling corn; upon those who sow and reap; upon those whose faces are radiant with the glare of furnace fires; upon the delvers in mines, and the workers in shops; upon those who give to the winter air the ringing music of the ax; upon those who battle with the boisterous billows of the sea; upon the inventors and discoverers; upon the brave thinkers.Robert Ingersoll.
CO.OPERATION
Stand off by yourself in your dreaming, And aU of your dreams are vain; No grandeur of soul or spirit, Can man by himself attain.
It is willed we shall dwell as brothers; As brothers then we must toil; We must act with a com.tnon purpose, As we work in a common soil.
And each who would see accomplished The dreams that he's proud to own, Must strive for the goal with his fellows, For no man can do it alone.

Ask thc "Handy Man" to Visit
There never was a person in an ordinary town who didn't like to monkey with a saw; perhaps he made a fizzle when he tried to use a chisel, but his hammer work was sure without a flaw. He likes to mend and putter-build a dresser for his daughter, and so long as HE has made it, it is good. And right here in your own city are a lot who have our pity, for they don't limow where to go to get their wood. Ask the "handy man" to visit and inspect your boards exquisite; let him feel the satin texture of your planks. Show him you don't mind the NUMBER-let him buy ONE piece of lumber-and you will get his f,noney and his'thanks.
