The people of the Community met
at Johnson’s Grove Church Tuesday
morning and spent the day working
at the cemetery.
There are still some Vass women
who think life’s greatest achievement
is in getting the cake out of the pan
without breaking it.
The man who is in politics for the
good of the people “usually considers
his family the people.
Good looking girls are bom, but a
lot of good looking women are self-
made.
It has been our observation that the
man who attends to his own busi
ness is never out of a job.
We used to smell the beefsteak
smell it and say: “Them were the
good old days.”
Some Vass auto drivers’ idea of
heaven is a sidewalk lined.with peo
ple wearing their Sunday clothes and
a street full of mud to drive through.
Still another reason they insist on
wearing their skirts so short is be
cause spanking isn’t as fashionable
as it used to be.
A Kentuckey jury has decided that
a mule can’t have rheumatism. Th^n
how’s a mule going to tell when it’s
going to rain?
Maybe the reason some nations
won’t smoke the peace pipe is they
are afraid of making the anti-tobacco
crowd mad.
A lot of fellows leave the farm be
cause they want to rise in the world
without having to get lip at 4 o’clock
in the morning.
The most miserable failure any
Vass man can make is to try to ap
pear unconcerned when someone
points out to him that he is growing
bald.
Still another thing about paying
axes is it doesn’t leave any money
for your relatives to squabble over.
When you hear a Vass man say he
feels like a 3-year-old, ask him
whether he means a horse or a fliv
ver.
The following kind words are from
the Sandhill Citizen and are appreci
ated by the Pilot:
“Our neighbor, the “Pilot” of Vass,
recently celebrated its six months
birthday. The little paper is grow
ing lustily and we are always glad to
welcome its latest appearance.”
Men of Zion City, Voliva’s punk
paradise, must wear skirts when they
go in bathing. Volilva has the sort
of mind that could find something im
modest in an undraped sugar bowl.
The funniest thing we have heard
recently is that London “drive” to col
lect sufficient money to buy false
teeth for the poor.
French experts claim that hand
writing may show delinquency. This
is the same view that is held by a
certain eight-year-old who got only
85 in an examination recently.
Dietitian says parsnips are chock
full of calories. Maybe it’s the taste
of the calories we don’t like.
When a man says he is through
sowing his wild oats he sometimes*
forgets that he has yet to reap the
harvest from them.
In Baltimore a boy was arrested
for delivering a small piece of ice on
Sunday to a woman who telephoned
she was ill and needed it. Why not
also arrest the operator who made
the telephone connection, or for that
matter the cop who was working on
Sunday when he arrested the boy?
Prophecy has not been fullfilled.
The country has the law, but the boot
legger has the profits.
Nowadays it seems a dress is some
thing a girl puts on to call attention
to herself.
That spiral effect in rolled down
stockings sometimes makes us so diz
zy we’re afraid of taking a nose dive.
Former prohibition officers who
know the ropes make the most suc
cessful bootleggers.
A man goes into a store, gets what
he wants and walks out. A woman
goes into a store and never walks out
until—but, pshaw! what’s the use?
Bergdoll may lose interest on, but
it is scarcely expected he will lose in
terest in, about eight hundred thou
sand dollars.
John D. Rockefeller has recently
visited the place where he made his
first dollar. Maybe he thought he
might be able to pick up another
there.
Persons who look upon My Lady
Nicotine as the worst form of Vamp
will be considerably disgruntled over
that recommendation given her by a
Camden dentist, who states emphatic
ally that tobacco is an excellent pre
servative for the teeth.
There are sixteen eggs in cold stor
age for every man, woman and child
in the country. Anyone can have our
share for the asking.
Not only Methodists, but the whole
nation will be amazed at the swift
power of the Christian Education
Movement to pro^^de the schools un
der its jurisdiction with the things
they need. Southern Methodists are
committed to the task and their slo
gan is, “We must, we can, we will.”
Careful Mother—Johnny, if you eat
any more cake, you’ll burst.
Johnny—Well, pass th’ cake and
get outa th’ way.
