the man who growls like a beast
with sore head when his wife asks
him for money; the woman who
whispers around that some other is

preacher who is always looking for
an easier place and higher salary /;
the man who walks the streets with
his hands in his pockets while his

who keeps dog and says he can't
afford the home newspaper, are the
