Roast To A Friend

I have a friend who thinks so fast And so much knowledge has amassed He jumps ahead of every story, Confounds the teller-steals the glory. My friend ! I don't see how you do it, But always, always, you beat me to it. And when at last, my sweating friends Bear me to where the whole thing ends, Could I but raise my head to view it, I hope I'll find you've beat me to it.

-C. L. Wakefield, Dallas, Texas.

Not For Nothing

An American was on a walking tour through Scotland. Snow had fallen in the mountain region he was traversing, and he was well lost in the wilds when he met a Highlander.

"Help me find my wai'," said the American, "I'm lost."

"fs there any reward offered for ye?" asked the canny Scot.

"Not that I know of," replied the American.

"Then ye're still lost," said the Scot.

Seven Deadly Sins

Policies without principles.

Wealth without work.

Pleasure withotrt conscience.

Knowledge without character.

Commerce and industry without morality.

Science without humanity.

Worship without sacrifice.

Naturally

And then, of course. there was the optician's daughter. Two glasses and she made a spectacle of herself.

Spelled It Wrong

It was a wide-open western mining town where desperadoes were everyday affairs, and a tough-looking hombre in a big hat, a long mustache, a black scowl, and two guns in plain sight, stomped pugnaciously into the office of the local newspaper and demanded of the modest-looking little man working away at the desk:

"Are you the guy that runs this blankety-blank, blankety-blank nervspaper ?"

"I am," said the little fellow, never even looking up.

"Then maybe you're the blankety-blank, blankety-blank coyote that wrote the piece in this paper that said I was a jail-bird, a cattle-thief, and a yellow hound?"

"Sure," said the little fellow. "I'm the guy that wrote it. What of it?"

"Just this." said the wild one, who was taming rapidly and visibly, "I want you to understand that my name isn't W. K. Mudge; it's W. H. Mudge. And byfhs ns:(1 time you write anything about me, you get my name straight. Good day !"

THE LAW OF' KINDNESS

Just as you now play a piece without music and do not think what notes you strike, though once you picked them out by slow and patient toil, so, if you begin with set purpose, you will learn the lau' of kindness in utterance so perfectly that it will be second nature to you and make more music in your heart than all the songs the sweetest voice has ever sung.

-F'rancis E. Willard.

Too Slow

First Old Maid: "What were you screaming about in your sleep last night?"

Her Roommate: "I had a terrible dream. I dreamed a man was chasing me, and chasing me, and chasing meand he never caught me.t'

Housing Project Uses Cedar Shingles Announce Nu-Gl are Glazing Compound

Demonstrating the practicability, utility and economy of stained cedar shingle roofing for large scale housing projects, the Madison Park Development Co. is norv completing its 100Groom development on the shores of beautiful Lake Washington in Seattle, Washington. Roofs for the 19 buildings in the project required a total of 2100 squares of. l€' No. 1 Certigrade Red Cedar shingles stained in four harmonizing colors by the Seattle plant of the Creo-Dipt Co., Inc.

This is believed to be the first big housing project of its type approved by FHA on which Cedar shingles have been used.

Philip Bailey, who handled the shingle sale for CrcoDipt, points out that stained Cedar shingles were chosen for the roofs because of advantages of economy, insulation, appearance and durability. He reports that through the use of stained Cedar shingles a saving of $26,000 was effected in comparison with quotations on other types of roofing.

As a result of FHA approval of the loan and the specification of the Creo.'Dipt Cedar shingles made in Certigrade mills, there is excellent prospect that Cedar will also be specified for roofs on one or more similar large housing projects elsewhere, notably in Sorrthern Califorrria.
