How to Solve Booze '
Problem Profitably
For the married man who
cannot get along without drinks,
the following is suggested as a
means of freedom from bondage
to saloons:
“Start a saloon in your own
home. Be the only customer
(you’ll have no license to pay).
Go to your wife and give her two
dollars to i buy a gallon of whis
key, and remember there are
■sixty-nine drinks in a gallon.
Buy your drinks from no one
but your wife, and by the timj
that the first gallon is gone she
will have eight dollars to put into
the bank and two dollars to start
'business again. ,.
“Should you live ten years and
continue to buy booze from her,
and then die with snakes in your
boots, she will have money
enough to bury you decently,
educate your children, buy a
house and lot, and marry a de
cent man, and quit thinking
about you entirely.
r “Note — Most compensation
laws specifically provide that no
compensation shall be paid to
any employee who is injured
while under the influence of in
toxicants.”

Farm Safety Week
Planned In July
National Farm Safety Week,
July 22-28, as proclaimed by
President Truman, is designed
to encourage all farm residents
to adopt safe practices on the
farm, in the home, in traffic,
and at play, according to H. M.
Ellis, extension agricultural en
gineer at State College.
The long-range objective of the
week, says Ellis, is to make farm
life safer, happier, and more
prosperous.
Based on Past averages, the
National Safety Council esti
mates that accidents will kill an
average of 48 farm residents ev
ery day during the next year
unless extra precautions are tak
en.
Ellis says most accidents last
year involved some violation of
a common sense safety rule. If
the accident toll is to be held
down this year, he adds, all
members of the family must be
come familiar with and observe
the rules of safety in their dally
activities.
Farm Safety Week is co-spon
sored by the National Safety
Council and the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture in cooper
ation with the American Farm
Bureau Federation, Farmers’ Un
ion, National Grange, Farm E
quipment Institute, and many
other organizations.
