'Mistakes of Life Exposed," By "Bob"
Seeds.
My friend, I am an old man and have
had my troubles, but most of them
never happened. This is rather a loose-
fitting koy to tho message of the lecture,
"Mistakes of Life Exposed."
Tho lecture is humorous. The news
paper say so.
Wero we to shed tears over life s
mistakes, people coming out to hear
them exposed would havo to wear
mackintoshes.
The lecture Is strung together with
good stories pickings from everywhere
and folks say tell them right for a
farmer.
I laugh and I liko to hear others
laugh. To mako people laugh is to
make them good.
Between smiles I try to put a little
more love into tho hearts of men and
women; try to turn their faces toward
the sun; try to exposo tho l'ttlo mis
takes from which tho big mistakes
grow? try to pull people over onto tho
bright side, that thoy and their neigh
bors moy be happier.
Audiences report that thoy havo been
pleased. That pleases me, and so I
travel on, growing happier and happier
every day.
