Did He Mean to Be FUNNY

The editor Of a newspaper whose
policy it is to print many letters from
correspondents in neighboring towns
recently received such a communica-
ton from his representative in one
place as to which he was not quite
sure. He could not decide whether
the correspondent was unconsciously
humorous or whether he was endeav-
oring TO comply with the standing in
structions of the paper to always be
on the lookout for any little touch of
humor that may brighten up our col
umns." The item read as follows
"Mr. Harry Spinks, the well known
butcher of this place, has been losing
