Pctrick Henry

Of all the outstanding characters that have graced the history of the Unitcd States, pcrhaps nonc was more colorful or appealing to the imagination than Patrick Henry.

Thomas Jefrerson had eeen him tending bar in his fatherin-law'g tavcrn. The next time they met, Patrick Henry calmly announced his intention of taking the examination for admittance to the Virginia Bar. "I thought you were already tending bar," said the amused Jefrerson. "This is a different kind of bar," Eaid the unabaghed country boy who was yet to 8ct the world afire with his oratory. "How long have you studied law?" asked Jefferson. "Three months," replicd Patrick Henry. "Don't you think you might study it a while longer before taking the examination?" asked Jefferson. "I don't know," said Patrick Henry' "Some folks take a long time to learn things. Others not so long."

And, to the utter amazement of Jefferson the boy was admitted to the Bar on his first examination.

Eden's Apples

When every pool in Eden was a mirror, That unto Eve her dainty charms proclaimed, She went undraped without a single fear, or Thought that she had need to be ashamed.

'Twas only when she'd eaten of the :ipple, That she became inclined to be a prude, And found that evermore she'd havc to grapple, With the much-debated problem of the nude.

Thereafter she devoted her attention, Her time and all her money to her clothes, And that was the beginning of convention, And modesty as well, so I suppose.

Reaction's come about in fashions recent, Now the girls conceal so little from the men, It would seem that in the name of all that's decent, Someone ought to pass the apples round again.

Pessimist

Youth-"How much is a marriage license?"

Clerk-"Two dollars."

Youth-"But I only have one dollar."

Clerk-"What a break!"

He Cut It Off

"How come I don't see you mixin'round socially no mo?"

"Flit's disaway. So fur as I is concerned, sassiety is thu ! I'se done ostrichized it."

Explcined

Rastus: "Tell me boy, why is it dat a black cow gives white milk what makes into yellah buttah?"

Sambo: Dass easy, boyt Hit'e fo de same reason dat blackberries is red when dey is green."

No Honest Working Girl

The scene was in a restaurant, The lights were shining fair, A girl sat at a table, And two men were eitting there. Said one man to the girl

Let's have a little drink or two, And say, kid, take a little booze, It never will hurt you.

But she was an honest working girl, And quick came her reply, And this it was her answer, As a tear bedimmed her eye:

Chorus

No honest working girl don't drink no booze, I'm sorry that I have for to refuse, I may not get a cheer, but I'll have to stick to beer, For no honest working girl don't drink no booze.

Ecsy Enough

It's easy to grin

When you're making a win, And wearing a smile on your phiz; But the guy that's worth while Is the guy that can smile

'When the other guy's getting the biz.

An Ancient Optimist

It was Grandpa's 90th birthday, and the family celebrated with a big gathering of relatives, and a very happy dinner, through all of which Grandpa sat proudly. One of his grandsons came to him and said:

"Grandpa, I've sure enjoyed being with you on your 90th birthday, and I hope I'll help you celebrate your hundredth birthday."

"Well, son," said Grandpa, grinning, "I don't see any reason why you shouldn't-you look good and healthy."

Todcry Is Ours

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and some absurdities, no doubt, crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on yesterdays.Ralph Waldo Emerson.
