the talk has had its natural effect.
People have become more cautious.
They have hesitated to start new
enterprises. Some have curtailed
expenses, ceased buying as free as
formerly, not because Of lack of abil-
ity to buy within their incomes, but
wholly on account Of the general
wave OF caution produced by the
alarmist talk in the east.

thinks Sis oughtn't to git married

Ma is quite set. Well, as l was

make no noise neither. They
say generally I'm fearful disturb

Arthur he hit the sofa-th' one

In bout minnie Sis got up an
spun the top of the stool round,
an Arthur walked over an begun
to tumble th' muzeek. After Sis
had squared herself in front of
the devil-smasheen (thet's what
pa sometimes calls it) Arthur
tried to pull her ear, but she slap
ped hem an looked mad an told
him to behave himself. Made me
a little roily to see him tryin' to

begun fxin' it. Guess Arthur
didn't like to have her standin'

The Greeks would not have educated
