Laughing Around the World
WitK IRVIN S. COBB
The Deceased Had 13een Forehanded
By IRVIN S. COBB
TN THE spring of 1919 a few months after the Eighteenth Amend
ment went into effect a Texan passed from this life.
While the funeral services were in progress at the late home of
the deceased, two of the men mourners stood on the front porch of
the house lamenting the passing of their friends and praising his
virtues.
Said one of them:
"There wasn't no finer feller anywhere than what Bill was, but
the main trouble with him was he wasn't forehanded. He had a wife
and a whole pas?el of children and he should a-bot n more saving than
wftat he was. He might a-knowed he couldn't live on forever. But
no, he lived up to everything he made. And here now, right in the
very prime of life, with a family on his hands, he haulo olf and die.?
without leaving no state as I knows of."
"The hell he didn't leave no estate!" exclaimed the other. 'lie
loft mighty nigh a gallon!"

idea why poultry prices are so low.

Cream during the past year to make

or not the service is satisfactory,
you be the judge. But we do appre
ciate your Cream business.

To Cass County Little Folks
Good Santa Clans is spooring here
To inscroll the girls and boys
Who've been behaving themselves

And he's checking up to see
That his clerks and aides don't over
look A name where it should be.
Now children, you'd better get to
work
And watch your P's and Q's
Do up your chores without a shirk,
To receive your honest dues.
He's watching you with Argus eyes
At your school and on the street;
And he'll "get" you for he's awful
wise
When you're acting indiscreet.
There are other little folks, I'm
bound.
Needing clothes, and food, and
toys.
Who'll be missed, mayhap, in making
his round.
And deprived of Christmas joys.
Can't you help Santa, and in a way,
Bring to them a little treat,
By sending a bag on Christmas day
Of toys or a bit to eat?
Some candy, nuts, a popcorn ball,
A word or two of cheer
'Twould mean to thorn, far over all,
Bright memories of the year.
So. while you're happy on that day
Enjoying yuletide measures,
Recall with pride the gladsome way

TELEPATHY EXISTS
Durham, N. C. Experiments
which ho rays mathematically prove
the existence of telepathy were made
public by Trof. Rhine, of Duke uni
versity. The odds against cliaiuc be
ing the explanation of these results
he says run into astronomical fig
ures, not merely ot millions or bil
lions to one against, but up in the
quintillions or sextillio-is.
Dr. Rhine has been making tele
pathy experiments for five years and
thes.T new results come from ter.ts set
up to nuet criticisms of other scien
tists that the former proofs might
have been due to involuntary whis
pering, sensory clues or habitual
symmetry 'of mental patterns. The
telepathy was based on a special deck
of 2") cards, whose faces bore one of
five designs, a star, a plus sign, wave,
reck tangle or circle. There were live
of. each in the pack.
Miss Sara Ownbey, Duke psychol
ogist, imagined these cards, one after
another, as they might lie in the
pack. "GZ" another Duke psychol
ogist, a man. sat with eyes closed, in
deep abstraction from his surround
ings, and told card by card what Miss
Ownbey was thinking. He did not
always read her mind.
