Mr.. Dole stated: "It helps amax axinsly
II we can see the funny side OF things.
The sense Of humor IL a peculiar thing

nations have II more than others. 1t is
from the Irish that we get the great sup
ply OF humor The actual wit of some
individuals II remarkable.
THE man who says women have no
sense OF humor Is libel on the sex.
Some women have a delicious sense OF
humor."
Lieutenant Governor Utter spoke on
Some Practical Principles" and In his
address he said;

should protect the home.
I'VE are allowing our boys and girls
to be trained. not in the home. but out

for character. One OF the things today
which Is tending to overthrow our In
stitutions In the feeling that we are los

homes. We are sacrificing much In order
to give our children an Inheritance that
is mere chan."
Miss Emory spoke also and was well
