I don't believe I've ever seen as
many women in one bunch as 1 saw
gathered in aftd around the voting
polls. . Young wo
men, old women
hobbling ground on
sticks. Some march
ing their old beer

marked his ticket.
She won. I don't
know whether she
wanted the beer to
lo or not, when
tney get H in lor the old man they
make it hard for the old fellow. I

Just so she woufcl have a better
trade selling whiskey. That's a plain
fast. I mean 1 know its a fact.
In actual facts more than one half
of all munitions produced by all the
Allies were Stamped made in Ameri
ca. Our war expendlutres of .330 bil
lion dollars thru the fiscal year of
'46 exceeded those of Great Britain
and Sovit Russia combined.
And it should interest the reader
to know that two-thirds of all our
l.end Lease aid went to the United
Kingdom, about a fourth, or 11 bH
lion dollars to the Soviet Union and
while our aid was concentrated on
filling Russian most urgent Steeds,
the Soviet government now has
chosen to dlsmfss our assistance as
incidental and we today are even
more unpopular abroad than ever
In the history of our nation. If we
up at Washington keep tossing bil
lions over the'Portd to the poor dev
ils waiting for mope hand outs, we
one day Will find that America has
played the jackass and low all our |
Lend Lease for no good to us.

that I also dare to say. I tell the j
truth. Why then am I branded for I

than I am.
Why. oh. fair ladies, why not next
vote out cigarettes. I believe I have
the answer. Some of you love the'

You know you wouldn't give up the;
litrle coffin tacks for love or mo- i

you before you get 90 years old or
later. Maybe sooner.
Much trouble is caused today
by workers that don't take time to
keep up with the bosses, by (thinking
and workers th?t do everything but
never think of their own interest.
That cla&s wiH always have the
halter on and be led around by the
big bosses. The Bible says we can't,
serve God and mammon. As long as

i saw men with their wives up at
the beer election. Some of the ma

Never let a woman have her way ;

I once knew a very attractive lit
tle lady with golden hair. I took her
to a party one night. She danced
with another young man. I saw
him kiss her. I asked h^r if she were i
not afraid of germs. No, she said, I
love the little devils. I for one, don't |
believe germs are what they claim
they are. They never gave me any
trouble.
. I met an old mode.1 gal. Shq asked
me if I weren't old fashioned. I told
her I liked the modern gal if she
didn't show too much of her duplex.
She got mad as a wet hen and ask
ed me what I mant by saying du- ?

Yes, these love germs are the
worst germs that ever hit the hu

! You voted Truman in. Now pay
him twenty five thousand dollars so
he can go fishing after suckers like
brother Joe Stalin. Give him a tip
