Howl. February, at the door.
You cannot scare me any more.
Your back is broke and gone your
sting
1 nr all your angry blustering.
Your sister, March, will vainly
strive
To keep your fading spark alive;
Y ur battered trumpet, she will
blow it;
loit you're both beaten, and you
know it.

THE MOST FLATTERING man in

There was a statement some place
which needlessly called to our at

much closer together. This was first
noticed on the trains and buses, and
now, the houses! Along this same

An old Irish proverb offers the

but it isn't ton practical, "Live in

A 1918 FRANKLIN with an air
cooled engine appeared on Garnett
street one day last week. It was
much in contrast with the sleek lines ,
of the modern flivvers, but some cat
owners would no doubt envy the
smooth-running engine which the
high-seated Franklin boasted as it I
chugged along in all of its antique
majesty.

PEOPLE OFTEN make mistakes or

ited or in a hurry. At a wedding
you would naturally think the bride

\ous and excited than anyone else,
but before a local wedding last week
one of the ushers brushed his teeth .

want to know who he was! That 1
stuff sure does taste bad though,
doesn’t it!
RED TAPE, as an expression, is said
to have originated as it was used to j
lie legal and public documents; the
ihrase starting about 1775. Those;
wo little words have gone a long
way.... but I doubt if they have
•ver passed the Red Tape.' "Too

way of thinking.
JACK DURING THE WAR a mid- |
