writing.
Mr. E. L. Smith, vice-president of
the company was reared on the farm,
near Tar River. He began as asales
man for the company several years

Wonders of Science.
A camera man working for the ed
ucational department of a film com-
; pany, met an old farmer coming out
of a house in one of the Middle
State and explained his presence on
the place thus:
"I have just been taking some
moving pictures of life on your
farm."
"Did you catch any of my laborers
in motion " asked the old man cur
iously. "Sure I did."
The farmer shook his head reflec
tively and then said:
"Science is a wonderful thing!"
It's a god thing to learn to say, no,
but many an old maid has lived to re
gret it
The Worst Possible.
Jones (to his grocer) "You seem
angry, Mr. Brown."
Brown "I am. The inspector of
weights and measureres has just
been."
Jones "Ha, Ha! He caught you
giving fifteen ounces to the pond, did
he?
Brown "Worse than that. He
said i'd been giving seventeen."
