A Froc ItiiiiitlHiut
Some people have roared.
While others were bored
At tales of the lively,
Ubiquitous "Ford".
In such stories. Ford glories.
These tales are a fad;
Some good and some bad.
Each new one Is velvet;
It goes for an ad.
And the car gets new markets.
Now Ford gets a notion
He'll sail o'er the ocean
To engineer peace.
Thinks rash the right lotion;
Oh, you sonny with money!
The folks who had roared
At the Jokes of the Ford
Thought this was a new one,
And scampered aboard;
F.arh one saying, "Ford's paying!"
Frank B. Thomas.

The Man Who Wins
The man who wins is an average man
Not built on any particular plan,
Not blest with any peculiar luck
Just steady and earnest and full of
pluck.
He goes at a task with ginger and grit
For he Is determined to conquer it.
When asked a question be does not
"guess"
He knows, and answers "No" or
"Yes".
When set a task that the rest can't do
He buckles down till he's put it thru.
He studies his duty as to why and
how,
His practiced motto Is "do it now".
Three things he learned: That the
man who tries
Finds favor in his employer's eyes;
That is pays to know more than one
thing well;
Thatfc doesn't pay all he knows to
tell.
For the man who wins Is the man
who works.
Who neither labor nor trouble shirks
Who uses his hand, his head, his
eyes;
The man who wins is the man who
tries.
Not so very long ago, when the
government stepped Into the fight be
tween the mail order house and the
rural merchant, and organized the
rural (rea delivery system and the
parcel post, many a good merchant
threw up his hands and calmly ex
pired In a business way. But the
wise, man, the man who used his
head, began to figure what ha could
get out of the parcel post and the
free delivery that would give him a
chance to compete with the mall or
der house. Like all great Inspire
tions, the answer was simple: "Do as
.... - . , . t n in M
he mall-order man does. Get
nailing list and go after the bus!
ness." And the "manontheground'
got busy. In the first place he ha
his local paper which circulated
throughout his territory each week
or daily In some cases. He advertis
ed with catchy specials, and got pro
pie to write In for them, sending
them out by parcel post. He got t
list of every buyer In his territory
went to the newspaper office and had
some attractive circulars printed
and circularized his names. After a
while he had a complete mall-order
list of satisfied customers. People
found they could get goods right at
home, practically, for the same mon
ey they could buy them for In the
large cities, and goods came quicker.
Thre were no waits, no broken
packages nor missing articles. In
fact the "manontheground" proved
to them , that , he had a mail-order
house right at their doors that couli'
deliver the goods as cheaply and
quicker than the catalog houses. And
the "manontheground" got the bus
iness. The lesson In this little fable
Is qultn plain to every merchant who
reads It. The enormous business of
the catalog houses has been built on
advertising, business methods, hustle
and stlck-to-lt-lveness. With every
advantage on his side he can hold up
and increase his business all the
"manontheground" has to do is to be
Johnny-on-the-spot."

Well. well, well, as the thirsty man
said. Old Pepe Sites, of the Alliance
Times, remarks that he is worried ov
er the future of this kolyum, on ac
count of the fact that "Life" Is going
o protect Its copyrights. Please
don't worry, Pepe. We'll probably
have lo take a lay-off, run up to Hot
Springs over night, stop at the Evans
lotel. and take a lesson from real

Stupid Smith!
Said the colonel to his orderly:
Smith. I wish you'd ride into that
town yonder and get the correc'

"Why. sir." Smith hesitated. "I
haven't a watch!"
"A watch, a watch!" the colonel
bellowed. "What In the name of
sense do you want of a watch? Write
it down on a piece of paper, man."
Hold! .
man and a boy went Into a shop
to buy a hat. After a time the man
was fitted to one. Looking In the
glass, he said to the youngster, "How
do I look in this hat?"
"Like a thief," promptly respond
ed the boy.
The man angrily darted towards
him, and the boy fled from the shop
pursued by the man. The shopkeep
er laughed and thought It all very
funny until their long absence made
him realize that he had been robbed!
Then he stopped laughing.
I'nele J ud's Lyrical Monolog on
Country Kdltortt
Who Is it that will work all day and
late into the night
Just to boost the town be lives In
with all his main and might?
Who Is It that's a millionaire without
the money bags?
Who always smiles no matter how
the little old world wags?
Who takes his pay in promises in
apple or cord wood,
And tries his hardest in this vale of
tears to do some good?
The country editor, my son. and may
his tribe increase;
An optimist par excellence; bU la
bors never cease.
More than half our population lives
in little country towns,
Where the fashions run to overalls
sunbonnets, gingham gowns,
But which are the foundation, you
can take it, son, from me,
Of all the nation's riches, and our
vast prosperity.
They're the bulwark of our great
ness; the foundation of it all.
And upon the small town editor great
obligations fall. '
He must mould public opinion in bis
little chosen sphere;
He must guard the institutions that
we all of us hold dear;
Upon his senso of duty and his loyal
ty depends
The welfare of the nation, and we
have no better friends
Than these country Horace Greelys
whose opinions are their own,
And not bought by men and women
rich on shady dealings grown.

The Centaur Company,
Many Are Called, but
Some Don't Answer
WHEN the telephone operator says,
"Number 046 does not answer," it
does not necessarily mean that the
man whose ear you're trying to reach
is indifferent to your call.
"Central" gives him a reasonable time in
which to answer, but sometimes he's too far
away from the bell to hear it, or too busy to
answer it.
In Rome instances, telephone bells are put out
of order temporarily by a storm or other cause.
We have special appliances for detecting this
kind of "trouble," but the operator may give
the "don't answer" report on such calls until
she learns of the difficulty. Then she announces
that "the line is out of order," until the trou
ble has been remedied.
It's a pretty good rule always to answer your
telephone promptly the call may be an urgent
one. or one you can ill afford to miss.
