The Ranting Reformer: Every windy
day ought to be a legal holiday. When
the wind blows as 1t does in Kansas in
the spring it is too much to as anybody
to work. Statistics will show that
most of the business trouble, foolish
takes of employees, dangerous Quarrels
with competitors, and misunderstand-
ings with old and valued friends, can
be traced to the effects on the dis
position of two or three windy days.
Nobody is fit for work on such a day.
Energy, politeness, patience and the
other qualities necessary to success in
any business or profession are impossi-
BILE. Therefore, at the next session of
the legislature it is proposed to have a
bill passed making every windy day a
legal holiday for all classes.
