Why He Was a Sucker"

Why He Was a Sucker"
William E. Mason of Chicago, at q
banquet given to lawyers and poll
ticians, was called upon for a story
and told the following:
"a well-known Illinois politician
was speaking at the same banQue,
with a governor of New Jersey some
years ago. The Jersey governor wen,
into exhaustive figures as to the
wealth, agricultural and manufactur
ing resources Of his own state. In
fact, he seemed to lack terminal facil
tiles. for he talked about forty min
utes.
Before he sat down he said: I am
to be followed by a silver-tongued or
ator from Illinois, and hope before
he sits down he will tell US why they
are called Suckers"
Our friend from Illinois said:
Mr.. Toastmaster, when I heard the
description of the agricultural prod
ucts of New Jersey I was almost
ashamed to come from the corn belt OF
Illinois, and when he told US of his
states manufactures, it made Illinois
look small. but l noticed. Mr.. Toast
master, that you and the gentlemen
about you seemed incredulous-in
fact, / could tell by your expression
that you did not believe word he
said. want to say to the governor
Of New Jersey that I believe every
word he said. and that Is the reason
I am called q sucker"

Because at the age of twenty five
years, the young women of Chicago
have begun to assume the responsible
tiles of life and know how to keep
away from temptations. the Y. w. c..
A. authorities have asked the roomers
in the buildings to vacate, that new
and younger women who go to the
city may have the use of the building.
Westerly, r. l., Sun.
Seems to the Star that such a regu-
lation would defeat much of the good
this institution is intended to do. The
Y. NJ. c. A. movement is a most praise
worthy one, but all efforts should be
made to extend instead of restrict 1t.
