THE WARPED SENSE OF HUMoR.

1t is big thing to be born with sense of
humor 1t will force smooth sailing on life's rough
est seas, and will make even drudgery bearabe.
The who cannot joke, even at her
own expense, is to be ptied-and her fun
loving friends. There is nothing harder both
sides than humorsm that falls fiat.

crease of divorce should have law passed that the

But it is thing to have sense of humor and
another to have warped sense of humor. There
is one more maddenng than the person who
roars at mishaps and thinks it so funny" to
mortify his friends.
You afford to laugh-if you feel like it

false puffs in church: but you have friendship
tender that will warrant smile when friend

1t is the with the misplaced sense of
humor who tells embarrassing anecdotes about fam

One of these misplaced humorists is the husband
who thinks it funny to ask guest to have certain
dishes, and when she accepts to tell her I'VE are

Have you never been covered with embarrass-

Then there humorists who when YOU tell n

Laugh all you can, but have sense Of fitness

All in all, it must be said that the convention
was a great success, enthusiasm attending

Hank, instead of struggling with his fellows on

That one months growth of beard be made the
maximum.
That special refrigerator cars be provided for
tanks.
That questionable touring anecdotes be punished
according to the veracity of the tales
That any member guilty of work be made to toll
and wash daily.
That hoboes found guilty of aiding in perpetuat-

That members apprehended with soap upon their

That system of chalk signals be arranged to
