Speaking of paying farmers for
not producing—after noting some
of their work we are of the opinion
it might be all right for Uncle Sam
to pay these PWA. artists for the
pictures they don't paint.
It’s a good thing we have ocean
steamers instead of the old fash
ioned clippers. If we had to de
pend on the latter just think what
the sails tax would be.
Now is the time of year when
the old folks bogjn to regret the
fact that they bought Junior a live
rabbit for Easter.
The aid fashioned man who used
to pray each day £or his daily bread
now wants it delivered sliced and
wrapped in cellophane.
The reason theyr increase the
horse power of automobiles engines
each year is because it is necessary
to pull against t&xes as well as
gravity.
One of the i shortcomings of old
age is that it is lot easier to act
young thafi it is to look that way.
Wamen’a skirts are getting
shorter but that doesn’t mean they
will be any cheaper.
