Criticism should be like charity let it begin at home. Past errors are the wisdom and success of the future. Give it time and hush money is sure to blab all its secrets. Lean on others and the leaner your chances are for success. Common sense is a trademark that requires no registration. Dont despair the less you have, the more there is to get. Folks who raise objections are always sure of a bumper crop. The best way to lengthen your life Is to shorten your worries. ST0I1EY KIIOB SUPER UARKEl 1 JVearervuV-Aihevittt Highway .t. .
