HurnOr and
Philosophy
PERT PARAGRAPHS.

PEOPLE who are really honest don't
go round worrying for fear the
community won't give them their dues.
Success is something that doesn't
need a diagram.
Sometimes business is business and
sometimes not so polite a name.
One of the indispensables toward
saving money is to have some to save
When some people go up in smoke
the insurance companies have to come
down in cold cash.
There are people who seem to make
money for themselves by losing IL for
others.
Distance lends security to the view
of an angry hornet.
Don't worry over the inevitable. It
always takes care of itself; that Is its
speciality.
The things that we are going to do
are frequently so numerous that we
never get to them.
To have a good time first find out
what a good time is.
When there Is no end to trouble II
IS hard to make both ends meet.
There are a lot of sweet young
things who can make trouble better
than they can make pancakes.

Perhaps Our Equals.

Across the mighty ocean
Are many people strange
Who do not run their business
The way we ours arrange.
They do not speak our language
Nor use our coin for change.
These very funny people a. q
Have slant and oblong eyes.
They think that we are foolish
And they are wondrous wise.
The stories that we tell them
They call n pack OF lies T..
They look on US as heather
And ignorant and low.
They place themselves above US.
Which puts us down below.
But as they do not know us
wonder how they know.
Who says they are mistakenf
Who knows they are not rightT
Are we TO be the Judges
To say that we are bright
Because their skin Is yellow
And ours is nearer white?
The fact Is they are human.
With feelings like our own
One heart, two lungs and so forth.
AS scientists have shown.
There might be little difference
II but the truth were known.
