Humor and Happiness.
You can bet your bottom dollar
We are onto the Venice caper.

And plenty Of empty paper.
In these ribald lines did q fellow
illustrator once turn the light OF
laughter on an exhibit of Venetian
sketches by F. Hopkinson Smith.
The pictures were beautiful and the
visitors to the gallery appreciated
them. But these few words of
rhyming criticism sank deeper than
any lesson the sketches might have
taught.
1t does not pay to be too serious
Often a timely joke or a gentle
thrust will blow more holes in the
opposition than tons of argument
Dare to indulge your humor, then. If
You must justify it. try to do so on
the ground that it has served you
better than a long speech. But if
you can enjoy it without justifying
IT, you are much the better off.
A good joke is worth more as a
reprimand than an hours scoldtng
Snlldren-or all ages-almost al
ways yield to the seductiveness of a
Joke, however much reproof it con-
ta1ns. 1t is the old sour-faces who
are always finding fault, always spit
ting out criticism. Their methods
and their natures are retroactive: the
more they neglect to joke the sourer
they become; and the sourer they be-
come the more difficult they find If
to joke.

the threshold to good spirits. and

on time deposits compounded quar-

cities Of America and Europe, and
transacts a general banking business.
Its paid up capital and surplus by no
means represent it's full financial
strength, Hon. Joseph NJ. Jensen, the

Both of these gentlemen possess high

the most capable financiers of the
state, while their reputation for safe
and conservative methods. and incor-
ruptible integrity is unimpeachable.
The policy of this bank, especially
under the present management, has
been to aid and encourage local bust
ness men and enterprises as far as
possible within the limits of safe and
conservative banking. but the security
of the funds due to depositors has al
ways been the first consideration.
The volume of business this bank
transacts Is large In proportion to the
population of the town and vicinity
and the amount of deposits proves
concusively the high degree OF comb

are best acquainted with its record
and personnel.
