A judge was hearing a wife's charges of assault and bat- Two farmers at a county fair were fascinated by a booth tery against her mate. where little celluloid balls bobbed on top of water jets. One

"After he struck you," sh€ was asked, "did he express of the farmers spent six quarters in a vain attempt to pick any regret?" off one ball. Finally his friend pushed him aside and picked

"No, sir," was the reply, "he didn't say a word the ambulance took him away."

- When you see a run-down stable Or a barn that's hardly able To keep up a fallen gable or a shed that's fallen throughDon't just stand there and defame it Or pass on your way and blame it Or the owner. List it. Name it As a job that's up to you. And before you fall in slumber, Figure out the bill of lumber; Yes, and get the owner's number, So that you can carry through. ***

"Watch how I do it," he said.

He took a singl,e shot. All six balls disappeared.

As they walked away from the booth laden with prizes the unsuccessful one marveled.

"How did you ever do it?" he asked.

"It just took knowing how," explained the winner. "I shot the man who was working the pump."

Americq the Beoutiful

O, beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties, Above the fruited plain ! America ! America !

God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood

Seminory Students

Seminary students decided to have fun at the expense of an old professor who wore a full beard. Seeing him approach, they conferred a moment and, as he drew near, one young man doffed his hat and said, "Good morning, Father Abraham."

The second did likewise, but said, "Good morning, Father Isaac."

And the third followed with, "Good morning, Father Jacob."

The old man stopped, removed his own &rat, bowed and said, "Thank you, young gentlemen, but I see you have made a mistake in identity. I am not Abraharn, I am not fsaac, I am not even Jacob. I am Saul, the son of Kish, sent to find my father's asses. Lo and behold, I.have found them."

The Modern Deqler's Song

I'll do your painting in the sp'ring time, - I'll do your fixing in the fall, And in the winter when the chill comes, I'l1do your building, best of all.

Summer I'11 show you lots of swell plans, Porches are just the thing, No need for building shrinking, I'll do your building thinking, Summer, and winter, fall and spring.

From sea to shining sea !

"FIe says 'I seen'and 'I have sawr'

'To boil' comes out'to bile,'

But when som€one needs ahelping hand He is there with a cheery smile.

"IIe wears old clothes and a battered hat, He has no cas.h to spend.

But he'll walk four miles in a blinding rain

Just to comfort and help a friend.

"Don't judge him by the c,lothes he wears, Or the way his words are sai<i.

If you would truly know a man

Look into h.is heart instead."
