THEY SAY

Since civilization was young,
the terrorizing giant They Say
has staiked up and down the
land and maue arrant towards OF
the bravest. The fear % Trey
Say has Knocked the back bone
out OF many 4 well meaning
youth, for he couldn't bear to
hear himself called goody -gcody,
or accused Of being tied to his
mothers apron string. Should
the youth continue to shake in
his shoes when They Say is in
sight or hearing, there is small
chance Of success in any line Of
work.
When They Say points his
grimy old finger at a woman. she
IL either raralyzed with fear or
makes tracks iorpaths If cbscu-
ri,y. II some sister. holder than
her fellow women, makes an ef-
fort 20 win bread, name or for.
tune by pulling out of a time
honored rut, They Say hounds
her footsteps and makes noun
tain out Of every mole hill she
may stumble upon.
They Say sometimes becomes
a glider and painter Of character,
and may give the blacklist ras-
cal an enviable fame and repu.
4 tation. He can also woefully
tarn;sh or besmirch the fairesr
name and leave bemish. while
the paint and gliding are worn
completely away by time.
In other cases. They Say proves
the cause vi stIifcs and conten-
uon and sets neighbors at outs
, and friends at cross purposes.
. Furthermore. the old meddler
was never known to restore a
broken friendship. or act as a
: peace maker.
Although seemingly so strong
and mighty, this rampant old
giant Is merely a tissue paper
fraud, 4 scare crow. which could
easily be routed by thrust from
the sword oi truth. He never

his backhanded ticks, but skulks
