George AIDE, the humorist
"Ade was q peculiar character In his
younger years." says the Judge. HE
made my Office a sort Of loafng place
during the little time he spent in loaf.
ing. he was employed on a farm
owned by a banker. One day he
walked into the Office and said to me:
""That man is the best I ever
worked for
"'Why? I asked, for I knew that
something funny was coming from
AIDE. -.
"'Well,' he replied, he doesn't ask
a man to do a days work in ten hours
he gives him sixteen

AIDE would amount to much," con-
