Copvrighr 1939,

When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf, And the world makes you King for a day, Then go to the mirror and look at yourself, And see what that guy has to say. You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years, And get pats on the back as you pass, But your final reward will be heartaches and tears, ff you've cheated the guy in the glass.

-Dale Wimbrow.

All men cannot be equally strong. But they should be equally free.

Common sense teaches every man capable of reasoning from cause to effect that government CANNOT enrich its citizens; that it is our dependent, NOT our patron; that it can only advance the fortunes of one at the expense of the others.

I am convinced that the bunch of economic M.D.'s who have been trying to tone up our system for several years have no conception of the character of the disease-of either its cause or its cure. They couldn,t tell a case of buck ague from elephantiasis. And so, they will eventually go thundering down the pages of time like an extra pint of water over Niagara Falls.

An ounce of experience is worth a smoke-house full of theory.

Lycurgus made money out of iro,n so that luxury might not corrupt the people and debase the national pride.

And remember-the ,t:*..; makes the most noise is filled with the most wind.

There was a -", ,""r1 ol..*r' the time of the great Frenchman Voltaire, and concerning that threatened foreign war he wrote: "Our God, who has bidden us love our enemies and suffer evil without complaint, assuredly has no mind that we should cross the sea to go out and. cut throats, just because men in red clothes and hats two feet high enlist citizens by making noise with two sticks (drum sticks) on an ass's skin."

The original optimist ;"J;" been the man who fell from the top of a high steeple, and, finding the falling through the air soft, said when half way down: ,,Good, providing it lasts."

Attention ladies ! C"*i; a*"b"r, Governor of the State of Tobasco, in Mexico, has made it illegal for women to wear bobbed hair within his province. He says it is ,.against the race and treasonable to the state.', Three hundred years ago William Prynne crusaded against bobbed hair in England. He said that English gentlewomen ,,are now growne so farre past shame, past modesty, grace and nature, as to clip their haire like men with locks and foretops, and to make this cut the very guise and fashion of the times."

Wonder what Prynne would have thought could he have forseen the fashions of today, with women all over the streets clad in "slacks," which are simply men's trousers after all.
