THE OFFICE Soy WANTS TO KNOW

The OFFICE BOY WANTS TO KNOW
| # you re not glad It happened?
Il it isn't certainty that the hes
interests Of the town will be materially
promoted by the amicable settlement o
the vexing problem?
Il the ticket doesn It suit you firstrate:
| Il better one could possibly bt
framed?
What happened to Wampum?
/ Il it WASH T a shame the way the Other
fellows adidn't pay him no mind''?
| How long he'll stay out in the coldi
/ Why he doesn't repent and climb il
| the band wagon?
When he will begin to realize thai
one sort Of fealty to 'tthe paw-ty'
| hasn't become epidemic?
| What the deuce is biting him, any.
| how?
| Il he knows that his finish Is IN plain
view to the naked eye?
| Whether he will lose gracefully OF
kick up row?
! It you're wise to the fact that The
Chief is the only, original and genuine
mass-meeting journal?
i If you didn't know long ago that
| this paper has the best interests of the
community at heart at all times?
| II 1t isn't surprising how apt some
people are at backing-up?
/ How in the world they manage to
execute complete about-face so rap
| idly without twisting themselves out oil
joint?
i If you know of anyone who has done
this stunt within the very recent pasts
| Why a plan that is out-of-date and
entirely satisfactory one day should
be so acceptable the next?
j Il what happened in the meantime
had anything to do with the case?
/. II it isn't queer what strange things
can be accomplished by q simple little
dose Of soothing syrupe
If you We seen the huge chunks OF
consistency that were straying round
loose about the middle Of the week?
Where they came from?
/ Why the owners don't take better
/ care OF this asset?
| If you heard the shattering of glass
when our little neighbor threw that
heavy editorial entitled sEvades the
Issuen?
What The Tempus regards as 'sthe
| issue''?
If that journal, as side-stepper,
hasn't got the artful dodger lashed to
a sapling?
It you noticed the way it failed to
take notice Of that little query anent
the police jury and certain two
hundred?
II you also annexed the idea that
the issue seemed to hinge on the
Democracy of the school board, and
not-very emph hatically not-on the cut
ing of prices?
| Why our little neighbor doesn' 7
grow up?
and quit making bad breaks?
/ IF it Wouldn't be we'll for The Tenn
pus' editorial man to brush up a Bit
on past events before attempting TO
| discuss the question Of reduced prices
| on public printing ontracts?
If what the police jury is saying
| and thinkfng-shouldn't be whole
/ lot?
If you know there is to be fair
next month?
! If you won't begin right away to
save your loose change in antieipa.
! ton of the big event?
II the fair will be productive Of the
usual number OF annual jags?
Who'd have the heart to eensure q
fellow for straying from the straight
| and narrow path on such a glorious
occasion2
In response to the call of a brother
editor named White for assistance iI
Il
selecting cognomen for his neWly-a
rived baby son, Brother Holland ot
the St. Helena Echo suggests that tbs
/ youngster be called aSnoW,n because
aSnow White would be so suggestive
and appropriate. - That sort of thing
may be all right when the heIples:
victim is boy, but il sometimes
works disastrous1y when s'gar' babies
are being tagged with euphonioui
namelets. Take, for instance; the cas-,
of the parents named Rose. VIII
thought it would be pretty coneeitt t.
call their infant daughter wild.
That wild Rose is beautiful al
one will gainsay, but think OF tn
! transition that occurred when the cir
grew up and married a man nance
Bull!
